Bivouac has a truly creative & masterful executive chef. The dished of the Quebec "Terroir" were very intuitive in their combination of ingredients. The flavors simply continued to burst in layer after layer of complimenting tastes. The ambience is nice as long as there are no teens playing loudly in the adjacent game room. There should be a wall in between for certain. The "House Jazz Music" was very good & smoothly upbeat with rhythms from the likes of Saint Germain &.al. Wait staff were all professional & attentive & our main server Michael B. from the outskirts of Paris & proudly a new Canadian citizen was outstanding. We will return for sure.

Really enjoyed our meal & the ambiance. A bit pricey for this simple & varied menu but the food was good. They need a bit more lighting, it's hard to read the menu. The servers were polite & ready to please. Overall very satisfied. We will return & recommend this restaurant to friends!

This is a good restaurant; I would describe the food as updated traditional French. Everything was well-prepared & tasty & the wine list was also good. The server was attentive without being too attentive, & the atmosphere is a kind of upscale lounge. I think, though, we were expecting a bit more considering the reviews we read & the other upscale restaurant to which we went the same week, which offered very creative & refined dishes. This is not a criticism, however; Bivouac is worth visiting.

Normally this restaurant's food is exceptional, for new Years Eve, we thought it was nice. Not terribly special or amazing, just nice. Service is as always just a bit under what fine dining should be

Nos entrées: pétoncles, ordinaires. Tartare de boeuf bon mais trop tomaté. Plats très bons, canard & filet mignon.
Bémol: trop bruyant, nous nous attendions à une ambiance plus cosy.
Notre serveur, Maxime, très compétent.

Restaurant digne de mention. Les portions parfaites. Le saumon cuit à point. Le steak, un pure délice! Une tendreté sans pareille! Les accompagnements délicieux. La pouding chômeur, une quantité parfaite pour se régaler & agrémenter d'une crème glacée à l'érable sublime. Le mille-feuilles, la meilleure des pâtes feuilletés que j'ai goûtée à ce jour! L'accueil du serveur chaleureux, un joli décor. Une superbe découverte! Un restaurant qui vaut le détour! Bravo à votre chef cuisinier!
