Overcooked very dry arctic char, steamed vegetables with nothing on them.

For the price we had higher expectations.

Nice cocktails, speedy service, but main courses missed the mark.

Both the food & service were lovely. Definitely high end, a little different than what I'm used to but the experience was worth it!

Le restaurant Bonaparte offre une expérience correcte. L'ambiance est animée, avec beaucoup de monde & d'effervescence, ce qui peut rendre l'endroit bruyant. La nourriture est bonne, bien que je m'attendais à un peu plus. Les soupes & les apéritif sont particulièrement réussies. Le service, bien que courtois, aurait pu être plus clair dans la communication. Dans l'ensemble, une expérience satisfaisante, je donnerais une note de 8/10.

There are two restaurants that are our favorites in Montreal. Those are Bar George & Restaurant Bonaparte. Bar George has been our favorite for the last few years. Our all-time favorite has been closed for more than 10 years & that was known as the Beaver Club. Bar George has tried to kind of make itself similar to that but unfortunately I'm noticing it's a little bit not quite what it used to be. I would have to say our current favorite is Restaurant Bonaparte. It is located in the Napoleon Bonaparte hotel. Where is Bar George is what you'd call British, restaurant Bonaparte is full on French. When you sit here you're in a nice white dining room with crisp white linens. True high-end French dining. For my course I had the filet mignon topped with a nice large lobe of foie gras. It really doesn't get much better than that. There are high-end steakhouses such as Joe Beef etc. the food in those places is excellent but the noise can be very distracting. Add Bonaparte you have the epitome of fine dining. The staff knows your likes & dislikes. You are exceptionally well cared for in that restaurant. It has become our favorite now. Seafood, Steak, Pork & Duck dinners are all wonderfully prepared. The desserts are simply elegant without being over the top. We found the Profiterole to be among the best we've had anywhere. It is a fairly expensive restaurant among the most expensive we were at during our vacation. But this kind of fine quality dining attention to detail does not come cheap.
