Review Summary

Overall, Au Petit Extra is described as a charming French and Mediterranean bistro with a warm, cozy atmosphere and attentive service. Diners praise high quality ingredients, generous portions, refined presentations, and a well rounded wine list, with standout dishes such as duck confit, beef gravlax, and a notable creme brulee, plus desserts like sorbets. The experience is often a pleasant evening with good value for the price, a vibe that invites lingering with family or friends, and a menu that keeps people returning to try more. On the downside, a few meals disappointed with bland or overcooked dishes and occasional slow service, including a notably negative experience involving slow timing and a difficult interaction with the owner. Nevertheless, the consensus leans positive overall, with many guests planning to return to explore additional menu items and to enjoy the convivial ambiance.

Excellent service, attentive, friendly & quick. Food is excellent, most French classics are present. The wine list is comprehensive & priced reasonably. A very pleasant experience.

Recommended by my French friend, food was good, a bit too salty, had to drink a lot of water afterwards, while the ambiance was pleasant. Noah was attentive, friendly, & made sure we had everything we need. He definitely enhanced our overall dining experience.

The food but the variety or edgy bold dish is not there. Classic French menu but lacks the ambition it used to have.

Great place! French chefs from Lyon were present as part of the Festival de Lumiere running until mid March I beleive. Everything was spot on. 👌

Nice french restaurant with great quality & delicious food! The place has the vintage decor matching with the building history & the cabaret hall next to it, making you feel like in a different century. Good service overall & we'd love to go back.

Just really normal or below average French food. I guess for French food, we should go to more established places. Some of their menu aren't French & not so good.

This place is one of the best old-fashion French restaurants in Montreal. It is an institute. The quality is very high for years, & the atmosphere is wonderful.

Fantastic French food, very pleasant atmosphere, & super pleasant service! The cocktails, dessert, & coffee were also very good. One confusing thing was that a Negroni cocktail was $9, but a long island iced tea was $19. Either way, everything was great!

Old school classic French bistro with all the classic dishes you'd expect.
Very friendly staff, & good ambiance, it gets busy if there's a show nearby so I would recommend to reserve a table.
We had the fish soup with croutons & rouille, & the fish with green pepper sauce, it was great.
The Paris Brest for dessert was delicious. The wine list has plenty of interesting selections at average prices.
This place has been around for years for good reasons.
