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.
J'y suis allée avec mes parents. La pieuvre était délicieuse ! Le service était attentif, l'équipe agréable, & l'ambiance très réussie pour l'ouverture de la terrasse. Belle vue sur la Place des Arts, en plein coeur de la ville. L'ambiance tamisée du restaurant intérieur était parfaite pour quelques photos souvenir. :)
Moi & mon épouse avons promis le meme rôti de boeuf avec la même cuisson médium saignant. Le mien était si raide que difficilement mastiquable tandis que le sien était ok. Pas de la cuisine super raffinée, ça vais pas le détour au 6e étage!
Toujours un plaisir. Cette fois-ci, une gaspacho au cantaloup TOTALEMENT EXQUISE, un saumon fondant entouré de petits radis marinés & croquants à souhait, & un pouding chômeur moelleux & juste ce qu'il faut de sucré. Le Bivouac : toujours l'excellence.

Nous avons vraiment l'expérience complet au Bivouac. Le service etait exceptionel, attentif, & plein du bon conseil. C'etait un évènement parfait à termjner notre visite à Montréal.
A wonderful restaurant. The service is impeccable, the food is amazing & full of flavor & style. You can tell the kitchen has a love & passion for the art they create. Tre magnifique! I cant wait to go back to Bivouac again.
Fantastic food, beautiful presentation, very attentive waitstaff, excellent ambience & decor. Common allergens are clearly marked on the menu.
On the pricier side but well worth it.
Best option in the area for a reservation if you're attending an event at Place des Arts!
Le Plateau de fromage & de charcuterie étaient très bien pour l'apéro de 4.
Nous étions près de la cuisine & il y avait du fruit de vaisselle & d'ustensiles que s'entrechoquent: il faudrait faire attention à cela.
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.
Cuisine originale, bien présentée, bien servie a découvrir. Nous avons sollicité quelque fois le service, pour le choix du cocktail, pour le choix du vin etc.. & le moins qu'on puisse dire c'est que le service est très professionnel. Le seul hic a été la musique zig boom boom par vraiment en adéquation avec tout le reste y compris le décor ! Un Jazz, un piano même une musique d'ascenseur aurait été mieux ! Ceci dit j'y retournerai certainement !
Nous avons passé une excellente soirée au Bivouac pour l'anniversaire de notre belle maman de 83 ans. L'accueil était chaleureux, la nourriture excellente & le service parfait. Un merci bien apprécié à notre serveur Maxime qui a su porter une petite attention spéciale à notre maman. 🤗😊
Had vegetarian meal, gnocchi with Brussel sprout purée & pecans. Nice combo with a great green salad & dressing. The gnocchi were plentiful but a touch dry. Overall good. Service impeccable, friendly & attentive!
