The beef wellington was pretty good with the sauce. However, the chicken plate was not good. The chicken was dry & hard to chew on. It costs 80$ for that chicken plate… i would recommend the appetizers for this restaurant but if it is a main course, it is not worth the price. Reservation cost money also ..

Bar George à Montréal est un endroit vraiment magnifique, autant pour le décor que l'ambiance visuelle. Cependant, lors de notre visite, c'était extrêmement bruyant : la musique était très forte, au point où nous sommes partis vers 23 h. Les cocktails étaient beaux, mais assez ordinaires au goût. Cela dit, je serais prête lui redonner une chance, car le lieu a beaucoup de potentiel. J'aurais aimé une musique plus jazz en harmonie avec la décoration, plutôt qu'une ambiance très « boum » boum

I was recently at Bar George. The newlyweds reserved the dining room to celebrate with their family. The room was gorgeous, I liked the high windows & atmosphere. Nice place for a special occasion.

New review posted on one table as well where I dropped the star rating to 2 -> I left a google review more than a year ago which was more complimentary then this review will be. Why? Quite simply the quality of the food has deteriorated considerably (perhaps there is a new chef?) while of course the prices have gone up a good 65% across the board. Just analyzing the lobster risotto for example this dish had been previously excellent taste wise while ungenerous portion wise particularly with the lobster aspect. Now the taste level has significantly decreased - with no proof I feel there is a new chef who has put his'exotic' spin on all the dishes adding Indian spices (à la Punch restaurant in Toronto) to the dishes. Trying to be trendy with tried & true dishes is not a good idea. I may still go for breakfast because I do love the setting of the restaurant very much but please fire your new chef & improve your food to fit the super high prices.
Old review from 1 year ago where I gave everything 4 stars -> The starters were ok. The steak tartare was good but the portion even for a starter was small - a pattern throughout the service. The beetroots again were ok. The halibut dish was exceptional & the lobster risotto again great despite the ungenerous portion of lobster on it. Overall MB rating 7.5/10.

Can't give it less than five stars.
If you are either visiting or from the area , this is definitely one of the top tier spots.
I've done breakfast, dinner, & have dined both indoors & outdoors on the patio.
The food is top tier & has been for the last few years that I have been going as well as service.
Atmosphere as well, Can't think of too many places that have more ambiance regardless of the day or time.
Definitely on the higher budget end, but if it fits within one's means this place delivers.

For my first time in Bar George, we rented a private dining room. The procedure to book it was very straight forward & easy. If you're a couple or a small group, I suggest you take a look at their options: they have different room sizes & the rooms are surprisingly really quiet. If you want have a nice conversation & avoid the loud music & noise of the main room, I suggest you take a look.
Otherwise, both the service & food was excellent. Our server was Jay & he was fantastic throughout the entire service - easily one of the best we ever had the pleasure to be hosted by.

I've been to Bar George many times & it's always excellent. The vibe, service, & quality are consistently on point. Not sure how I forgot to leave a review before, but better late than never one of my favorite spots.

A rail 🚂baron's mansion that is nearly as old as our country could easily be a b&b, beautiful & boring. But not this place, it has a vibrant yet chill atmosphere. I love sitting here & soaking in the atmosphere & people… & don't miss the Matane shrimp toast. 😋

Service impeccable dans un lieu enchanteur. Le décor est antique chic, très léché. Serveur attentif à nos demandes. Les entrées suggérées par notre serveur étaient succulentes, particulièrement le tartare de boeuf & le ceviche. & que dire du boeuf Wellington !!! Un pur délice. Un peu douloureux sur le portefeuille, mais en vaut chaque sous.

A beautiful restaurant. I visited here a few times. Always enjoyed the food & atmosphere. The only thing I would say is the portion size, & it's a bit pricey for the amount of food offered. For example, today we went for brunch. The dish is so small. We had to order side dishes to feel a bit full. I recommend that the restaurant reconsider its portion size. Maybe supply those nice duck fat potatoes as part of the meal. I think when customers feel satisfied & full, they will come back.
