Food was good, drinks were great, & the tasting menu is very well priced. Left completely full. Creative flavours with clever twists on familiar dishes, & the tuna tartare was the best I've ever had - not'best this year,' best full stop.
Decor is beautiful. Only catch: concrete floors mean the sound bounces everywhere, so expect to raise your decibels. By dessert my table was basically performing theatre for each other. Bring your outside voice & enjoy.
We got the tasting menu. It was a fun variety of dishes to share. Some were delicious such as the razor clam or the beef tartare. Some others were just ok.
The service is good & we didn't wait too long for the dishes. The price is decent for the amount of food we got. Definitely worth trying.

Delicious food. My friends had the tasting menu but since I don't eat shellfish or pork I went a-la-cart. 4 dishes were plenty.
The leeks, tomatoes & tuna were amazing.
Let's start by saying we had a really nice evening & enjoyed our food. The server was friendly, answered our questions & contributed to a good atmosphere. We had a disappointing dinner the night before at a different tasting restaurant & when we saw that the menu was different than what was online, we became concerned. We started with three dishes, & each was a pleasant surprise. We flet they were all unique takes on traditional dishes. The Sturgeon & Beet plate was very mild in flavor, but it worked. It reminded us of grandparents eating borsh. The Gnochetti Sardi was our favorite, with a feel of mac & cheese with sliced, cripy lobster mushroom as the crunch. That worked so well. & the Onion Tart, like French Onion Soup, had a crisp crust with lots of flavor. I wish we had tried the Razor Clams though. But that is for next time.
Bar St. Denis presents a remarkable tasting menu experience. Each dish is carefully prepared, highlighting vibrant flavors & seasonal ingredients. The attentive service & the effortlessly elegant atmosphere contribute to a refined yet comfortable dining environment. This restaurant is highly recommended for a sophisticated dining experience in Montreal. The stuffed morel mushrooms were truly exceptional, offering a delightful explosion of well-balanced flavors upon the first bite. While the lamb was unfortunately overcooked & somewhat chewy, the remaining aspects of the meal were outstanding. The staff demonstrated excellent knowledge of the menu, & we received commendable service. Our compliments to the chef.
One of the best meals I've had in Montreal, can't wait to go back. Cocktails were delicious. Did the tasting menu & the server paired a fantastic Chablis, everything was outstanding. Razor clams & scallops were perfect.
Delightful dining experience at Bar St-Denis! The tasting menu showcased the chef's creativity & skill, with each dish expertly prepared & presented.
There were 5 services for the tasting menu: (1) salmon & razor clams, which were cooked to perfection & bursting with citrusy flavor & crunchy texture. (2) The veal tartare with sardines was a bold & intriguing combination, with the veal wonderfully seasoned & the sardines adding a welcome tanginess. However, this dish may not appeal to those who prefer milder flavors. The labneh bread that goes with the veal tartare was a revelation - soft, crunchy, & infused with delicate spices. (3) The gnocchi was cooked al dente, with a well-spiced sauce, although the slight bitterness of the greens may not suit every palate. (4) The duck magret was phenomenal, with a rich, balanced sauce that complemented the duck perfectly. The only misstep was the (5) toffee pudding cake, which was overly sweet.
Our wine selection, however, was fairly priced & paired well with our meal. The espresso martini was a highlight, with a perfect balance of vodka & espresso.
Our waitress was friendly & attentive, although she could have been more proactive in refilling our water glasses. Overall, we would highly recommend this place for a special occasion or nice dinner. While it may not become a regular haunt for us, it's definitely worth a visit! Thanks to the team; my husband & I had a great date night!
