Beyond excellent!! Great atmosphere & extremely friendly staff. The food was superb - highly recommend the profiteroles for dessert. There is a tasting menu or you can order traditionally. Loved everything 10/10!

Amazing atmosphere, excellent service, & a very beautiful interior design. The food was absolutely delicious & the whole experience was outstanding. We tried the filet mignon & the grilled salmon, & I highly recommend both dishes. Everything was cooked perfectly & full of flavor. We also tried the crème brûlée & the chocolate mousse, & both desserts tasted absolutely incredible. Another great advantage is the parking located right next to the restaurant, which is very convenient, even though it is paid parking. Overall, a wonderful dining experience that I would gladly repeat & highly recommend.

Well,they knocked the ball right out of the park & here is why ;

- The dining room is old Montreal charming & Frederic made sure we overlooked old cobblestone streets while sitting next to a lovely fireplace - He was so gracious & welcoming .

George's the Maite d' was so very welcoming & warm. Audrey & Catherine' made sure we were completely taken care of this evening to the finest detail .

Oh my goodness ,let's take a moment & describe dinner . My leg iof lamb was braised to perfection , the mashed potatoes were sooooo yummy -Hurricane Grandma's golden dore was equally delectable - I loooved my Bloody Mary etc

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!

We highly recommend duck confit, lamb shank, catch of the day (walleye) & rabbit confit. The terrine & wine was not super impressive but was still good. Service was good & they treated us very well for my birthday. This was the second visit for one of us.

A six star experience & my favorite dinner in Montreal during this trip .

Bonaparte hit all the marks with their exceptional service & attention to detail .

We made reservations weeks in advance & it is highly recommended to plan accordingly.

We were greeted & taken to our table which was a great location overlooking the outside . Quiet & able to hold a conversation without noise or disruptions making the ideal ambiance.

Bonaparte restaurant style & surroundings take you make to an old school elegance & charm . Dress for the occasion .

Our waiter was amazing . He explained the menus perfectly & made note of a gluten free guest also offering their own gf bread & butter . A must .

Cocktail menu & wine menus were extensive & detailed . We asked to try some local gin based cocktails . He did an amazing job proposing two cocktails that set the tone for the dinner .

Soup of the day was a potato & leek . Simple flavorful & filling . What else does one need ? Together with the delicious breads was a good starter .

Main dish was out of this world . Roasted duck breast cooked to perfection . Prepared with a maple syrup sauce & wild berries (including tart cranberries) which elevated the dish . Vegetables mix balanced the dish . In combination with the herbal cocktail this dish was extraordinarily special .

After dinner digestif menu included some nice choices to wrap up a delightful dinner

Many thanks to the entire staff that made our event so memorable . We will be back again next time we are in Montreal

We stopped into the bar here for dessert after dinner elsewhere. Theo in the bar was extremely friendly & taking great care with each & every cocktail he created. Made a point to engage us in conversation. Chocolate mousse was delicious- highly recommend.
