Enjoyed lunching at Bivouac ! We had the set menu for lunch which included an entry, main meal & dessert for a decent price & the food did not disappoint. The pouding chômeur is delicious

My friend & I had an incredibly disappointing experience Friday night, so much so that I have to believe it was purposeful due to the fact we're American or because we did not order alcohol. After our order was taken we didn't get a refill of water until after our app was delivered even though the cups were empty when it arrived. Our waitress passed us several times as did the manager in a suit, empty cups & not a second look in our direction. Once she cleared the appetizer plates we got a refill & she said our entrees would be up shortly.
In the restaurant the kitchen is in full view & our table had a prime viewing spot. We were sitting inside instead of on the terrace as we had walked through the city all day so our part of the restaurant was completely empty. That is why we were able to see our entrees put into the window by the chef who even took a photo of one of our dishes on his phone. Our plates then sat for well over 10 minutes as bussers, other servers, & the suited manager passed our food in the window. My friend & I just sat watching our food get dry & overly hot. The plates were so hot the she had to bring them with folded napkins, not a word of warning that they were dangerously hot. We ate what was still moist (they at least have good heat lamps I'll say that) & then sat with our silver on the table & napkins on our pate. The waitress passes us again & again (water cups empty while eating) & then strikes up a loud laughing conversation in front of us with the manager. Backs turned to as we still sit with napkins on plates food mostly un eaten & not a word from her the manager as to why. We had hoped to get dessert but it was so disheartening at this point we didn't feel welcome so we just left. We had hoped to have a nice dinner in a beautiful restaurant but left severely dejected :/
If you're an American coming to MTL to support our neighbor's economy please eat elsewhere! MTL is a food haven & there are so many other places to go.

Absolutely fantastic dinner. Staff is amazing & food was also amazing. The oysters were fresh, the appetizers & main dishes were very good (kudos to the octopus), the dessert was delightful. Wine was very good. They brought us fresh bread during our meal which was great & rare these days. The decor is also gorgeous.

This is a hidden gem in Montreal that a lot of people don't know about unless they are staying at this hotel.

Definitely recommending this place to people!

Classy Hilton class dining. I would say the beef tartare was the best in Quebec. Unfortunately the dessert was a set back, while the mains - vegetarian & octopus were mediocre. Worth visiting.

L'oeuf mollet est une des meilleures chose que j'ai mangé dans ma vie ! Littéralement !
Ensuite la truite était excellentem, d'une texture moelleuse & douce sans pareille.
Tous les assaisonemments sont justes.
Seul bémol : les desserts. Il n'y en a que 4 à la carte & aucun d'entre eux ne m'interessaient.

Nous avons eu un service exceptionnel des 3 serveurs. Les repas étaient sublime de l'entrée au dessert. Mon seul bémol est pour ce rendre au restaurant en métro, les indications pour avoir accès au restaurant peuvent porter à confusion. Communiquez avec le resto ils vont pouvoir vous aider.

Bon service ! Par contre, le poisson servi ce soir là (un samedi soir) était peut-être trop salé ! Le dessert, de son côté, goutait davantage une mousse au chocolat qu'un Panna Cota. C'est deux éléments mis ensemble font en sorte que nous ne pouvons pas donner un 5 étoile à notre repas !

Repas de Saint Sylvestre décevant! Accueil sympathique, portions correctes, qualité des matières premières très irrégulière, service quelconque. Sur 5 services, 2 sont positifs, 1 honorable & 2 décevants dont le dessert juste goûté & non mangé (trop dur, peu goûteux, typé pâtisserie de supermarché) Dommage pour le plat principal, un flétan, trop cuit dans dans un jus sans goût. Un rapport qualité prix plutôt médiocre. On s'attend tout de même à un niveau très supérieur à celui proposé pour 150$.

The Steak is overcooked, & the service is not what we expected. After we finished the main course, we do not get any attention for over half an hour, or check with us if we want the dessert. I am very disappointed.
