Review Summary

Reviews describe Lawrence as an outstanding and intimate dining room where every course shines and the staff are kind and knowledgeable. The tasting menu with its multi course format is repeatedly praised for variety, balance, and satisfying pacing, with many dishes highlighted as standouts. The wine program earns high praise for its breadth and thoughtful pairings, including excellent non alcoholic options. Dishes such as lamb, squid ink pasta, and mussel curry are frequently singled out for their depth of flavor, while desserts receive special commendation. Some feedback notes a shift away from a la carte and the removal of offal courses, with calls to preserve the restaurant's adventurous edge. The no tips policy is appreciated, and service is described as crisp, attentive, and unpretentious in a warm, refined setting with an open kitchen in some sections. Taken together, Lawrence is regarded as a Montreal standout and a memorable dining experience, though the tasting format can be lengthy.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Bar George earns praise for a breathtaking historic setting in a renovated mansion, with rich woodwork, elegant interiors, and a warm, refined ambiance that makes it a standout for special occasions and cocktails. The menu and cocktails are often highlighted as sophisticated, with Beef Wellington and lobster risotto repeatedly mentioned as signature dishes, though the dish can be unevenly executed or overpriced, with issues like a non-crispy crust or salty sauce. Service is frequently described as attentive and knowledgeable, with strong wine recommendations, yet some visits note slow or uneven service during busy times or when staff turnover occurs. Brunch and lunch are praised for atmosphere and setting, but portions or value can be inconsistent, and some guests find certain items pricey for the size. Overall, Bar George is seen as a premier Montreal destination for a refined dining or drinking experience, where the ambiance and architecture often elevate the experience, though a few reviews point to room for improvement in consistency and value.View restaurant profile
