A rare full five star review from me. My wife & I celebrated our anniversary here & stayed in the hotel. This is a real gem in the old port & amazingly consistent over decades. Expect classic French cuisine done properly & served with care in a beautiful dining room.

We went here at the recommend of our friendly. We opted for the tasting.

The best dishes that we would order again were mushroom ravioli & duck breast. Everything else was quite disappointing. Lobster bisque. Lobster vanilla. Foie gras. Etc. overall the dishes were slightly under seasoned & under flavored. lacked the richness & nuance of French cuisine. Overall food was three stars.

The quantity of food was adequate. If you are a normal size male then you probably won't come out full. Though they serve the same dishes from their à la carte menu the portions are quite a bit smaller. The number of course doesn't make up for the portion size. So just heads up.

Service was attentive & friendly. Definitely five stars there.

A must-do in Old Montreal. This cozy French restaurant had charm, warm ambiance, super delicious food, & an amazing staff! The staff were really friendly, fun, & knowledgeable about the menu & drink options. I tried Artic Char for the first time & now it's my absolute new favourite. My husband had duck confit cooked to perfection. The dessert souffle was not only delicious but also a beautiful treat! I highly recommend this restaurant!

Bonaparte is consistently a great experience. The service is always top notch & feels like such a luxury. My favorite dishes are the vanilla shrimp & scallops, the brie chicken entrée, & the profiteroles for dessert. They also have amazing French fries & cocktails.

Excellent classic French resto … I just wish they would name after Louis XV who loved his people so that he entrenched French language rights for Quebec … while Bonaparte sold off the people of Louisiana'à la vache'

One of my favor restaurants in Montreal. Bonaparte is a timeless gem in Old Montreal, offering classic French cuisine in an elegant, candlelit setting. Every dish, from the foie gras to the duck magret, is beautifully prepared & full of flavor. Service is attentive & professional, & the wine list is superb. Perfect for a romantic dinner or special occasion.

We enjoyed our meal last evening. Family out of town gather here to have a good French cruise. We got the multi choice menu with wine paring. 4 of us loved our server. He was polite. Friendly. Warm. & great sense of humor. & the smile.....(Matthew I believe was his name)
My only complaint is I find my mushroom ravioli was over cooked. Water down. But overall presentation on every plate was beautiful. Food delish. I would recommend this gem of a place to tourists.
Matthew: I hope u do try my tip. Blue cheese with a dab of honey

My wife loved her multi-course meal-she thought both the food & wine pairings were wonderful. I, however, didn't enjoy it as much. While the cuisine is clearly traditional French, I found the staff unhelpful when I asked for guidance on the menu, & the portions felt small for the price. The food was good but nothing stood out to me-except for the chocolate chip soufflé, which was truly excellent. Perhaps this is simply a matter of taste, but for me, it wasn't worth the cost.
