Mes attentes étaient hautes en entrant dans ce magnifique lieu. Malheureusement le service était teès impersonnel & la musique n'était pas appropriée à l'ambiance attendue dans un établissement de la sorte. Souper en amoureux avec de la musique pop à niveau élevé était plutôt désagréable. Pour ce qui est de la nourriture c'était bon, sans plus. Je ne recommande pas l'assiette de fromage qui n'était qu'un morceau de brie fondant avec un jujubes maison, un croûton de pain brioché & du miel infusé. C'était vraiment moyen comme finale. À éviter si vous cherchez une table raffinée, calme & un accueil chaleureux.
Visited from New York specifically expecting an upscale experience instead, we left disappointed & honestly a bit humiliated. My three friends & I were told at the door that bar seating was limited to two people per group, so we complied without issue: two of us stayed together at the bar, & our third friend sat elsewhere, exactly as instructed.
Despite following that policy to the letter, the floor manager, Mathieu, approached us visibly agitated & started raising his voice - telling me I wasn't even allowed to be sitting next to my friend, which directly contradicted the two-person rule we'd just been told to follow. It was hostile, dismissive, & turned a normal night out into an unnecessarily confrontational scene in front of other guests.
For a venue that markets itself as a luxury destination, this kind of behavior from someone in a management role is unacceptable. Service should match the price point & reputation, & this fell far short. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone visiting the city expecting the hospitality this place claims to offer.
Our son, Francesco, & his beautiful bride, Ashley, were married at Bar George on July 26, & from beginning to end, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. A few weeks later, we are still floating on air.
The venue is absolutely stunning, the service was impeccable, & the food was extraordinary. Throughout the evening, guests continually came up to tell us how delicious everything was. We had a discerning crowd to impress-the bride is a chef herself, much of the bridal party were chefs, & we're an Italian family with high expectations when it comes to food! Every single person raved about the meal. The Beef Wellington was outstanding, & the gnocchi received endless praise. As Italians, hearing so many guests say it was'the best gnocchi they've ever had' is about the highest compliment possible.
The midnight buffet was another huge success. The quality of the food was exceptional, the portions were incredibly generous, & the thoughtful touches we hadn't thought about made the evening even more memorable.
A special thank you to Elias; it was a pleasure working with you. He responded to our emails & questions always in a timely fashion. He also worked well with our team of professional wedding planners, the Di Event Sisters, ensuring that every detail came together beautifully & responding to any of our concerns.
On behalf of Ashley & Francesco, & our entire Resera & Beliveau families, thank you for giving us a wedding day that was everything we had hoped & prayed for. You created memories that our family will cherish for a lifetime.
If you are considering Bar George for your wedding or any special celebration, we cannot recommend it highly enough. Our guests kept telling us that they felt like they had been swept into another era of timeless elegance.
Bravo to the entire team-& thank you for making our family's dream wedding a reality.

Food is good. But seeing mices running down the stairs & the staff that just told me'oh.. well it's an old building'.. Yeah, old or not that's not really inviting after seeing a mouse running down the stairs & going directly in the dinning room. I wonder how the kitchen is clean. I used to come for the past 2 years & now i wll probably not put a foot back there
Very lovely intimate dinner spot. The interior is so regal & historic, making for a very opulent experience. All the staff are lovely from the moment you walk through the door, & our server was especially courteous & helpful. The drinks were pleasant & overall the food was delightful. Particular love for the beef wellington that simply cannot be skipped. The lobster risotto was a bit underwhelming ~ bland to be honest, though the lobster itself was soft & scrumptious. Octopus carpaccio also quite overstated & little flavour otherwise, but tender. Oysters were good - love the hot sauce! For the exorbitant price tag one might expect perfection but regardless it was wonderful to try it out knowing how beloved it is. We reserved but perhaps not even needed - only the patio was full.
An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The food was beautifully presented & full of flavor, the service was attentive & friendly, & the atmosphere was elegant yet welcoming. A wonderful place for a special dinner. I would gladly come back.
