foie gras(362) duck(277) bar(144) wine(134) recommend(134) poutine(130) dessert(117) pork(117) dishes(116)Our first visit- outstanding dining experience! We sat at the bar where the dynamic chefs kept us entertained just by doing their jobs. Great cocktails & wines by the glass. Decadent & stunning plates- we especially loved the Shepherd's Pie. Will return every time we visit Montreal.Voir plus
What an incredible dinner! Our waiter was an absolute delight, answering all of my questions (there were a lot) & making on-point recommendations. The chef-caught tuna sashimi was one of the best things I've ever eaten. So many fancy touches, but in such a casual atmosphere. I wish I lived close enough to go frequently & work my way through the whole menu.Voir plus
This might be the best food I've had in Canada so far!! So delicious, & the service from all the workers (especially Alex) was amazing. So friendly & welcoming, & Alex is great at recommending the perfect drink. Thanks so much everyone! I hope to come back soonVoir plus
Came here for our anniversary dinner while visiting from New Hampshire.I was definitely excited to try this place as everything we have eaten in Montreal has been phenomenal. We'll the good eats stopped here.First the waiter was like Woody Harrelson on crack,it took a long time for my husband to get his drink order,the maple peanutbutter rice is yummy but an absolute joke in size & not worth more than 5usa dollars.We were going to order the duck in a can & thankfully I chose not to want to pay $68 for meat in a can we chose the meat in the clay pot for 2,as it was tasty some of the pieces of meat were very fatty or just a bone with no meat & a peice of sweet bread that looked like An American hamburger bun,it was actually laughable.We didn't bother with dessert as we got some at the metro station pastry shop that was absolutely amazing btw.Sherbrooke Metro to be exact,it was so good we went their the morning after for pastry & coffee & to our surprise they have Duck in a can for 39.99 & the owner of the metro pastry shop told us it is a high quality product he has imported from France.So we bought it from him & took it home.I also want to go back to the restaurant atmosphere, that was the worst part for me,it was like a chaotic mess,loud & not a relaxing atmosphere. As we left our hotel the morning after this ridiculous dinner we told the locals that run the hotel about this restaurant & they said they would never recommend that restaurant. TAKE IT FROM ME,NOT WORTH THE TIME OR MONEY,RUN!!!!!!!Voir plus
This was truly one of the most remarkable dining experiences I've ever had! The tuna, freshly caught, was absolutely melt-in-your-mouth delicious, bursting with flavor. The foie gras parfait was a delightful treat that I doubt I'll ever replicate. & the duck sashimi? Oh my goodness, it was unbelievably good! As for the shepherd's pie, trust me when I say you've never had one like this before-so creamy & packed with incredible flavors. The restaurant is vibrant & bustling, with a lively atmosphere that can get quite loud, & the space is cozy. It runs like a well-oiled machine. We were seated at the bar overlooking the open kitchen, where the chef was truly impressive. She managed food prep, training, & everything seamlessly & calmly, which was amazing to witness. What an exceptional experience overall! I highly recommend this place if you don't mind the noise & the organized chaos. I rated the atmosphere a 4 due only due to the noise level & close quarters but I was conflicted because these things are also part of the charm, it was a fantastic experience! We will definitely go back.Voir plus
Went twice during our time in Montreal, it lives up to the hype. Don't expect many (any?) salads, this temple of gastronomy is pure gluttony at its finest. Shout out to our server Gabriel, he was super friendly & attentive & everything you would hope for in a waiter. Really made the experience for us the second timeVoir plus
Wow! Came here with some friends on a recommendation from their friend in London. Did not disappoint! Menu is filled with decadent options, including fois gras poutine & duck in a can (it sounds gimmicky but is some of the best duck I've ever had!). Unfortunately they don't sell the duck in can to go 😂. Would absolutely come back.Voir plus
Fantastic dishes after dishes. They were all good but my most fave was this duck with quail egg hand rollVoir plus
This was our second time dining here, & the first time bringing our seven-month old. The staff were incredibly accommodating, & the food was excellent (as always).Voir plus
La qualité & la richesse du goût de la nourriture était vraiment au rendez vous. Nous étions juste déçus car nous sommes répartis sur notre faim, les quantités étaient trop petites pour nous surtout considérant le prix. Du pain & beurre ou un amuse gueule au début aurait aidé.. Un peu plus de pain ou d'accompagnements avec certains plats. La taille de la poutine était décevante malgré que le goût était incroyable. Belle expérience au final mais nous sommes répartis un peu insatisfaits à cause des quantités.Voir plus
I'm torn because this is some of the best food I have ever had in my life. The only problem is everything else such as the service & atmosphere was really, really, bad. Starting off with the good, the food here was amazing. Every single dish that we ordered blew our minds off. I'm not sure if they change their menu but I highly recommend the sweetbread, duck temaki, plogue a champlain, pork shank, & the salt & maple sugar fries. It was my second time having sweetbread & this was sooooo delicious. The duck temaki was the perfect ratio of rice & other ingredients. I loved the uniqueness of pouring your own yolk out of a small quail egg. The plogue a champlain came with a huge serving of foie gras & was amazing. I had nothing bad to say about any of the food we ate today. Definitely the best food we have had in Montreal so far! This is why it was so disappointing that I could not say the same about the service & restaurant itself. First, the tables at the back are super crammed. I could not get into my seat because the guy at the table besides me was literally touching my chair. Another patron saw me struggling & him & his wife moved my table forward for me just so I could sit down! Then when my mom sat in her chair, the lady at the table behind her came back from the washroom & couldn't get into her seat! She ranted something in French which I'm assuming wasn't positive about the tight space situation. When we first sat down we were greeted by a really nice server who was helpful & gave us great food suggestions. But then he rarely came back to check on us. I wanted to tell him how amazing the food was except, he never asked once we finished our courses! When I turned around I saw him bartending at the bar, so maybe he was both the server & bartender for the night? Maybe the restaurant was short staffed? I don't know, but the service was disappointing. So yes, my wine glass sat empty on the table & no one bothered to ask me if I would like another drink. When we finished our pitcher of water, another server took it away but didn't bring us a new one. When our water glasses sat empty for some time, I finally asked someone for another pitcher of water. & then, the strangest thing happened during the middle of dinner, where a guy took a Swiffer duster & started dusting the vents on top of everyone's heads while we were eating!! Me & a girl at the table across from me gave eachother a "what the F" look because we were bewildered they would not wait until later to do this? & I don't know why, but they kept trying to serve us other people's food!! Lol! This one poor guy brought us three dishes that weren't ours. So this is why I'm torn. I would absolutely die for the food here but I just wish the service was better.Voir plus
Une expérience culinaire inoubliable. Les plats sont tout simplement divins, alliant des saveurs délicates & des produits de grande qualité. Chaque bouchée est un voyage gustatif, préparé avec soin & créativité. Le service est impeccable, attentif sans être intrusif, & le personnel est passionné & souriant. C'est l'endroit parfait pour passer un moment exceptionnel en couple!Voir plus
A must visit in Montreal if you like foie gras! We had it in many forms when we visited. Individual pieces on sushi rice (aka foie gras nigiri), foie gras poutine, foie gras mapo tofu, & foie gras with the duck in a can! All were good but in particular the foie gras nigiri was the standout followed by the poutine.Voir plus
For over a decade, I have dreamed of Au Pied de Cochon. I was so glad to enjoy a meal there with someone I love. Turns out, 100g of foie might be a bit too rich for my blood, but in the house that tried to kill Bourdain with the stuff, it felt apropos. Everything we ate was just perfectly executed. The service was seamless. If a restaurant can be a hero, I'm happy to have finally met one of mine in Montreal.Voir plus
A heartfelt thank you to Alex, Sous Chef James (I hope this name is correct. It was loud. He's from Saskatchewan. Makes a mean salt & maple sugar pomme frite) & the entire team. We had a fantastic evening at Au Pied de Cochon last night, due largely in part to their warmth & hospitality. **Sit at the bar if you dine here**. Watching this team work their tails off to serve us impeccably presented dishes elevated the experience in a way sitting at table wouldn't deliver & we greatly appreciated the front row seat & the time they took to interact with us. We enjoyed the foie gras nigiri, the infamous duck in a can, & the salt & maple sugar pomme frites. The restaurant boasts a great wine selection as well. Definitely order a side of the sourdough bread if you try the duck in a can to mop up all of the delicious sauce. The shots of jalapeno vodka & St-Germain proved to be a delightful surprise. We're contemplating a return visit to try the poutine, which stands apart from all the other poutine in Montreal in that the gravy is enhanced with fat from the foie gras. Thanks again, chefs.Voir plus
Excited to score a counter reservation here on our first night in Montreal & we were not disappointed! There's a real buzz & energy to the place & staff are super-friendly. There were so many specials on offer that it was difficult to remember them all; a blackboard or printed slip of paper would have been helpful. Sitting at the counter was fun but our seats did keep getting knocked by both guests & staff so be prepared for this if you sit here! Food was outstanding, particularly the foie gras profiteroles & aged pork chop. A couple of dishes surprised us by not being what we'd expected from the menu description, for example a'scallops' dish in fact being a kind of mousse. We were pleasantly surprised at what good value the meal was for such high-quality cooking.Voir plus
Sat down at 5pm. Left at 8:15pm. We didn't order anything crazy, just two apps, one foie gras, two mains, one dessert, & somehow that took 3 plus hours. The food was fine. Nothing spectacular. Luckily the prices weren't exorbitant since the flavors really weren't very special or defined. Overall it was not worth the time more than the money. The service was sloppy & unprofessional, lots of reaching over the table & elbows all over.Voir plus
