A wonderful traditional French restaurant with a great atmosphere in the Old Port. You will be amazed by the fantastic ambience, sparkling Christmas tree, warm lights, elegant table cloths, romantic music & 5 stars service. We chose the 7 course tasting menu without regrets. Every dish was perfect! It was pleasant to sit a table by the window having delicious meals while it was snowing outside. An unforgettable night! We will come back!

Incredible from start to finish. Was in Montreal for a quick weekend visit. Spouse decided on a last minute client dinner & I was lucky enough to find a spot for 4 at Bonaparte on a Friday night. The original table assigned to us was in a busy area so our guests requested a quieter location & the staff at Bonaparte couldn't have been more gracious. After just a short wait, they seated us in the back with a perfect table for 4. 3 of us opted for the tasting menu. Service from their team was impeccable & the food was amazing in all facets (presentation, flavours & textures). Our reservation was at 8PM & we ended up spending almost 4 hours there., time just flew by. The atmosphere is very relaxing. We were never rushed or hurried. Very nice experience for the entire party. This is a must do when in Montreal. We would travel back to Montreal just to experience Bonaparte again & perhaps even stay at the adjacent hotel. Merci beaucoup!!!

Beautiful food, beautiful atmosphere. The staff are very welcoming & all the food was prepared well. It's also in a beautiful location in the old town, so try to get a window seat if you can.

The best fine dine experience in montreal. A must visit restaurant for all the visitors . The food, cocktails, dessert everything was so on point. Although the food is on a very higher end, the total bill was more than $300 but it was so worth it. 10/10 experience.

Le Bonaparte est un restaurant de style empire de l'époque napoléonienne. Nous étions dans la salle Impératrice avec son beau foyer & ses grandes fenêtres qui donnent vue sur la rue. Un excellent souper de 4 services. Ambiance chaleureuse. & que dire du service, Juliette & compagnie nous ont choyés aux petits oignons. Merci à MTL à table de nous avoir fait connaitre ce restaurant.

Lovely hotel in superb location. It's what you're looking for when seeking an Old Montreal experience. It's true that the bed is firm but we like that & the pillows were perfect. The sheets felt luxurious. It can get noisy on Saturday night & the towels could be better. Parking was a breeze next door & cost about 75$ for two nights. All in all, will be back!

The server was great. The speed of the food was very slow. Meal quality was great & they have an excellent wine selection. The duck & rabbit were both lovely. Again just a long wait between courses.

The server was nice, the food was alright but waiting over an hour & a half between each service for the tasting menu made no sense.

Delicious restaurant in the heart of old Montreal! They offer excellent wine selection & a great menu choice! They also offer a tasting menu so you get to experience the best dishes of the restaurant (6 service). We tried their special MTLaTable promotion which was a 4 course meal & it was great! It allowed us to discover this restaurant & we would come back again in the future to try out more dishes!
