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.
J'ai passé une soirée à cet endroit pour un 40ième!!! Quel magnifique soirée & un service hors pair!! La nourriture était délicieuse, même les enfants avait un menu spécialement conçu pour eux!!! Je recommande à 1000%
Charming boutique hotel in a great location of Old Montreal. Restaurant & bar are terrific. Staff could not be nicer & more accommodating. Been staying here for over 25 years.
L'ambiance était géniale, le personnel très sympa & la nourriture savoureuse. Nous étions là pour un rendez-vous amoureux & nous avons tous les deux apprécié l'expérience. Je souhaite seulement que la crème brûlée soit mieux présentée. Si vous visitez Montréal, je suggère d'essayer cet endroit.
Simon awaited us with astonishing courage & splendor. We went for fancy meal because we are not used to such fancities & I think they did a good job not making us look like fools. Thank you for that. But fancy feasts Have little food & not much more to offer. The wine was great & was indeed a good pairing with our filet mignon & fancy underwater snacks. Thanks again to Simon for cosplaying well

Quelle merveilleuse soirée avec ma femme le service la nourriture & le personnels sont magnifiques merci si je pouvais donner plus que 5 étoiles & bien j'en donnerai 10
To be honest, we initially made a reservation here because we wanted to stay close to our hotel, but Bonaparte was the perfect meal to end our honeymoon trip. We both did the tasting menu, & I also added the wine pairing. Everything we tried was delicious & well-portioned. The wines were all well paired & our waitress did a lovely job explaining each match. The service, ambiance, & food were all excellent - I can't recommend this restaurant enough. We would certainly go back.
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.
