Bistro La Franquette offre une expérience globale chaleureuse et conviviale avec une cuisine française bien exécutée, où des plats comme le hanger steak et les frites ou l'onglet de boeuf sont cuits à la perfection et accompagnés de portions généreuses et d'un vin bien choisi. Le service est généralement attentif et courtois, même si le rythme peut parfois paraître expéditif et que certains plats arrivent en vitesse. L'ambiance est cosy et intime, le décor et l'éclairage contribuant à une atmosphère agréable, idéale pour un rendez-vous ou une soirée entre amis. Le rapport qualité prix est souvent salué et la carte, bien que parfois réduite, permet de revenir régulièrement sans se lasser. Dans l'ensemble, les expériences décrites évoquent une adresse fiable et chaleureuse où la qualité des plats et l'attention du service font souvent la différence.
Bistro la Franquette is my favourite restaurant in Montreal. The onglet de boeuf is the best steak you'll get in Montreal, much better than any other'fancy' steakhouse. The staff is amazing, & they'll make your experience unforgettable. Couldn't recommend enough!

Franquette quickly became my favourite restaurant when they opened 5 years ago & they still never disappoint. I've never had a bad meal there & everyone I have ever recommended it to has absolutely loved it. My accountant even emailed me mid-meal to thank me for the recommendation because he & his wife were enjoying themselves so much!
The staff are all exceptionally friendly & knowledgeable. The kitchen staff & especially their pastry chef are extremely talented & it's usually hard to pick whether the main meal or the dessert was better (pro tip: never skip dessert here!).
Do yourselves a favour & make a reservation for lunch or dinner, you won't be disappointed!!
Friendly & knowledgable staff. Warm atmosphere. The halloumi dish was amazing! Highly recommend! The flavours, the texture - everything about this dish was spectacular. We shared a few other dishes as well, & overall everything tasted good & the service was great.
Lovely restaurant with a nice, cozy vibe. The food was delicious, & the staff was friendly. Highly recommend if you're in the neighbourhood or looking for a more intimate dining experience!
Warm & cozy bistro vibe. Everyone was super friendly - service was above & beyond. While waiting for our table (with our kids) the bar tender whipped us up a couple of custom cocktails. We ordered from both the evening's specials as well as the regular menu. The server helped us choose a good combination of both to get a good feel for the restaurant. Highly recommend for a very chill, very delicious, warm, welcoming restaurant - the perfect spot to warm up & tuck into a comforting French /Quebecois bistro fare. Cant wait to come back!
We've eaten twice here recently with out-of-town friends, & both times were excellent. The bread was wonderful, with truly great butter. I had a great mushroom velouté, & the halloumi with balsamic & honey glaze was phenomenal. My ravioli was flavorful & delicious, & my husband said his steak was the best one he'd had in several years. & the pavlova was definitely worth leaving room for! The staff were warm & attentive, & the whole evening was great. If you'd like a meal that's a bit of a splurge, I definitely recommend it!

First of all Jenny's service was 10/10, very knowledgeable & familiar she was much appreciated. The halloumi & rigatoni were some of the best dishes I've ever had, & the wine recommended to us was perfect. All at a very reasonable price, I'll be back soon.
Bistro La Franquette is easily by far my favourite restaurant in the city. The service & food is always excellent without a doubt. The Staff is made up of genuine people who make the experience delightful & special. The food never misses. I was amazed by their Pate en croute. Highly recommend visiting this place with friends or family.
The worst experience in my life :) Two weeks ago, my boyfriend brought me to this resto. We had an amazing time, & the food is excellent. We decided to come back today. However, we had the worst service ever from " the owner" as she told us. My boyfriend ordered two drinks & food (cod cheek croquettes, hanger steaks, rigatoni)at the same time; after 30 mins, we started asking our waitress. She replied us : " that's the kitchen", she doesn't bother to go to check. Even though there is an entrée dish, we don't even have it. & then, we look at "the owner", my boyfriend asked her about the food. She was holding a glass, didn't want to put it down & came to talk. "She just craned her neck & looked at us". I never received that response in a restaurant. Especially, the price of the food we pay, we don't deserve to have that service . With that attitude, we would rather go to eat at Chinese restaurant . They serve better than yours. We waited for our order, & she told us to leave. What kind of service is this ? I recommended a lot of people to come but now I regret.
Went there for our 3 year anniversary. Was our first time there & could not rave more about it. A really friendly, warm & cozy atmosphere. The food & cocktails were delicious. We highly recommend!

A must try restaurant in Montreal. Everything was perfect. The food, the service. There oysters were very fresh & delicious. The halloumi, never had such a good halloumi Mains we had the ravioli & beef tartare with fries, highly recommended.
Superbe bistro français. La nourriture est classique & parfaitement exécutée. Mention spécial au service, attentionné & toujours présent. Je recommande pour toute personne qui cherche à bien manger & passer une bonne soirée.
Vraiment sûr côté, merci aux réseaux sociaux. Prix prohibitifs, 200$ pour un repas sans vin , sans dessert c est juste exagéré. Si encore à ce prix l expérience était extraordinaire, mais ce faire sévir par des serveuses en crocs a ce tarif c est impensable. La nourriture n a rien de particulier, voir même pas terrible. Je ne recommande vraiment pas, encore une belle escroquerie. Sans oublier le tip de 18% car le 15% n h est plus.
One of the best meals I've ever had. Run, don't walk. If you can afford carte blanche, I would highly recommend it. Thanks to Louie, Renée & the rest of the fabulous team!
Quite simply a wonderful dining experience. Attentive, professional service delivered with a very positive attitude. The menu had some unique offerings that were'across the board' delicious. I highly recommend Bistro La Franquette!
