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.
Remarkable food - thoughtful, surprising, delicious - in a beautiful environment. & the head hostess was amazing. Honestly, can't say enough good things about that head hostess.

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.
Second time eating here...I always give a resto 2 chances...both times, everything was outstanding...so the first time wasn't a fluke. The food is simple yet delicious, the waitstaff attentive, friendly...probably my favourite resto. Love this place
Had a great experience at bistro La Franquette! Wine & food were fantastic. The homemade sourdough bread had a nice butter & flaky salt that balanced out the sweet caramelized Halloumi cheese, they were a perfect combo. & thank you to Coco for recommending the Gemelli pasta!!! Will be back:)
Truly an underrated spot in the city, the food is phenomenal, the wine selection is great, the cocktails are delicious & the service is amazing! Happy to come back here whenever I can 🙌🏻❤️ don't miss out on their special collabs or their burger night.

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!
Dinner with the family was fantastic. All the menu items with frites are to be sampled. Broad wine list with helpful staff that know there stuff. Service was spot on. Hanger steak is the best I have had. Order plates & share with the table is the best way to enjoy. The ambience is perfect for an evening with family or friends. A truly great eating experience.
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.
Thank you to Renee, Louie & the whole team. We could not have been happier with our experience. The food, the service & the wine were all top notch. Every dish was perfectly executed. Such a beautiful restaurant too. Cannot wait to go back!

Louie is so talented! The steak & pasta & chicken liver mousse (I can go on) is the best in Montreal (full honest). Wine gal Renee is very knowledgeable-listen to her! I love this place so much- I go all the time. So much heart & hard working folks. Can't wait till my next visit!
Totally on point! Excellent service, fabulous family feeling ambience, tremendous food from start to finish. We ate everything...we are still here & if they would let me, I would have a nap (chairs & banquettes are super comfy) & order more fries in an hour ...& probably more cod...& the dessert! I'll be back sooner than later! Cheers to Reneé & Louie, we can taste the love & passion in every detail of our meal ❤️
Visiting Montreal after many years & quite disappointed at this highly rated restaurant- booked last min & got a spot in the night, when we got in another 5 mins waiting by the door which was fine, then we sat down & I ordered the ravioli it was mediocre & I tried ordering beef tartare finding it was sold out! First time dining at a place that sells out which looks like they are not prepared for meeting the capacity of customers, I then ordered halloumi but it was too sweet & I couldn't keep eating after finishing half. The sorbet was quite good I guess it made up for the bad mains. I left the resto with a hungry stomach & don't think it's worth $90 for what I got. Also I had to yell the entire time because I couldn't hear my friend due to the extremely loud atmosphere. Service was slow I had to ask three waitresses the same question on whether my dish will be delivered.....won't go back
It's very rare that I am truly WOWED by a restaurant. Le franquette is a WOW. The sea bass is by far one of the best fish that I have ever tasted in my life (including my travels around Europe). Not only is the food incredible but the staff are so delightful. We experienced nothing but smiles, positivity & warmth. We will 100% be coming back soon. I also appreciated how diligent the restaurant was with verifying if there were any dietary restrictions or allergies. Prior to our meal, the restaurant even took the time to call us to ask us if we had any restrictions as well as if we were celebrating a special occasion. This attention to detail does not go unnoticed & is unique to the bistro. Ps. Yes you NEED the fries.
