Au Pied de Cochon

We had a terrible experience dining here. At first, it seemed seamless as the Foie gras poutine came early & we enjoyed it while waiting for the main. Then the mains that we ordered, which is the halibut & pork chop came about an hour later. I finished a whole Netflix episode while waiting for this. The food here left our stomachs with immense discomfort, as all foods were heavy in taste. Service was really slow & it took them a long time to even bring the card machine for us to pay. I don't recommend coming here.

Eclectic, eccentric, delicious. One of the richest, most decadent meals I've experienced. Great ambiance & interaction with the chefs, preparing each dish just feet away. Do yourself a favor & go.

Enjoyed a really nice meal here! I tried the foie gras poutine which was to die for - the sauce was rich, the chips were crispy, the curds were melty & perfectly squeaky & having foie gras on top felt so decadent & luxurious. The service was great - friendly, knowledgeable & attentive from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere was lively, & it's always nice to see a packed restaurant (be sure to book ahead!) You absolutely should dine here - you'll be in for a real treat!

Stumbled upon Au Pied de Cochon last Saturday afternoon after wandering around the Plateau, & honestly it completely blew my expectations. The duck in a can is as ridiculous & incredible as everyone says - rich, messy, & absolutely worth it. The vibe inside is lively without being overwhelming, perfect for a solo afternoon exploring the city. Definitely going back before the summer is over.

We sat at the bar & I highly recommend that for the experience, the service was excellent & the food was outrageous. I might need some time to visit again because I ate so much foie gras, but I would come back easily & I'll be recommending this restaurant to any friends visiting montreal.

Definitely need reservations to enter. The place was packed the whole time we were there. I was anticipating an incredible meal from all the great reviews. Making a reservation on their site was easy. Yet, we
were confused as to why a couple with a later reservation (who arrived early) was seated before us even though we were on time & there before them. But overall, the staff was friendly, so we chalked it up to a misunderstanding.
The menu is limited, but I appreciate the focus. They know what they do well & aren't afraid of perfecting it.
We ordered the fraisier cocktail (vodka with aperol & strawberry sorbet on top) & the Mexican mojito (got a kick in the bottom of your throat spicy). Both really good & they didn't skimp on the
alcohol. I was very giddy by the time they brought the foie gras nigiri. This is why I wanted to eat here & am so glad they keep it on the menu!
One order $29 comes with 4 spoon servings, by the way.
Add the soy ginger sauce like they suggest because it cuts the fattiness iust right. Perfection.
Oh là là! Decadent, smooth & buttery. Why don't more places serve foie gras like this? Genius!
We also ordered the pork chop, paparadelle pork ragù & a
side of the salt & maple sugar fries. All were good, but the foie gras still had them beat. The fries had nice flavor, but we were really disappointed because it seemed like we got the tail end of the fry
basket. The bottom & middle of our paper cone contained all the broken bits. I felt a bit deceived.
We got the pudding chomeur that people said was a classic staple. It was basically cake batter swimming in maple sugar syrup. It was sickly sweet. If sweet sweet desserts is your preference, get the pudding.
I'm glad we got to try the pudding, but I regretted not ordering a second order of the foie gras instead to end the night.

I would come back for the cocktails & the foie gras & maybe the foie gras poutine.

The chairs are extremely comfortable; the rest you'll have to experience firsthand
