For the vegetarian in all of us

Rated this place:

Open daily at 11:30, Commensal is a vegetarian buffet/cafeteria-style restaurant for eat-in or take-out that also offers catering service and Veggie brunch on Sunday mornings. Commensal offers a buffet of cold salads, hot mains, and desserts, allowing for a sampling of many different items. In addition to great pasta varieties and delicious homemade pizza options, Commensal boasts tofu dishes that are so well done, even meat eaters will be satisfied. Commensal features weight-based pricing, with the idea that if customers are given the option of only buying what they think they can eat, there will be less food wasted. Ste. Catherine location is on the second floor (with elevator access) and allows diners to look out over the busy shoppers at University and Ste. Catherine, while the St. Denis location is BYOB.

Vegetarian restaurant

Rated this place:

The hot and cold buffets at Commensal include organic, vegan, non dairy, and gluten free dishes- but they are not short on taste. Full range of seasonal soups like Butternut Squash, quiches, salads, quesadillas, lasagnes, and spring rolls are just a sample of their menu. You pay by the ounce so load up- this is one place to stuff your face and it is actually healthy!
