Bonaparte se distingue par une élégante ambiance française et un cadre chaleureux au cœur du Vieux-Montréal. Le service est généralement attentif et professionnel, avec une équipe accueillante et connaissant bien le menu et les accords vins.

Le cadre intime et la présentation soignée créent une atmosphère idéale pour une soirée romantique ou une occasion spéciale.

Globalement, l'établissement est perçu comme une référence du quartier pour ceux qui recherchent une cuisine française classique et raffinée.
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.
Restaurant Bonaparte is nice but unremarkable-nothing I ate was offensive, but nothing really impressed me.
Cocktail options are fun, & the cream of mushroom soup was very good. The plating on the entrees seemed a little tacky & unrefined. The lamb was well cooked & had good texture, though lacked flavor to me, & the chicken with brie similarly tasted like… chicken & brie, & nothing else. The duck was pretty good though in a very sweet sauce.
The desserts were standard, the chocolate mousse was a little disappointing as it didnt taste like they used real chocolate in it as opposed to powder, & was simply piped into a bowl.
The interior ambiance is very nice, & the service was good. While I think the food here is good, I believe there are better options around both for flavor & presentation of dishes

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
This was an incredible fine dining experience. The wine list is a novel. Choosing our meal was hard because everything sounded amazing. We tried the duck breast & beef bourguignon, & they were incredible delicious. Prepared perfectly. The sweet potato puree that came with the duck was very tasty (I wanted much more of that). The only thing that disappointed was the Brussel sprout that came on each of our plates. But dessert more than made up for it. Their dessert cocktails were out of this world & the souffles are really a work of art. Great place for a fancy date night.
We just had drinks at the bar here for an hour, but it was pleasant. We stayed at hotel Bonaparte for a weekend, so it was nice to have a high quality restaurant downstairs.
The cocktails were good & the service was quick. Our bartender was quick & professional.
We'd love to come back & try dining here sometime!
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.
For a relaxing, romantic fine dining experience, definitely make reservations. Restaurant Bonaparte is truly a stand-out in Montreal restaurants in terms of food, atmosphere, & service & is in one of our favorite memories in Montreal. We were seated by the window which was lovely. The cocktail list had so many interesting & delicious sounding cocktails that it was hard to choose. Each came with a card with a painting of a partially clothed woman & description of the cocktail. I got the Ah! Camomille which had a lovely base of chamomile flavor with honey & floral flavors. It went well with the lobster.
Our waiter took excellent care of us. Even with two other tables with one larger group of four or five, our conversation could be easily heard.
We had such a lovely dinner & relaxing experience, my husband even ordered an after dinner coffee, which he never does. We will definitely return the next time we are in Montreal.

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.
Assez déçu par mon expérience. Déjà, il ne devrait pas être possible de réserver au bar. L'ambiance est complètement différente de la salle à manger contrairement à d'autres restaurants où l'ambiance reste la même. même si le service était sympa on s'est pris plusieurs fois des glaçons dessus. Pour ce qui est des plats. Les raviolis étaient vraiment bons ainsi que le cocktail. Par contre j'ai trouvé que l'assiette était un peu vide. Bref, je ne pense pas y retourner compte tenu du rapport qualité prix très faible.
Service & atmosphere were good, as was the cocktail. Food & wine-by-the-glass were extremely average. This is not fine dining.. bit of a tourist trap, really.

Fantastic restaurant. The staff were kind & professional & spoke both French & English. The food was delicious. We heard from a friend that their duck is delicious, & can confirm. Would highly recommend the duck confit. The roasted duck breast was also good, but the confit was the hands-down winner. Their cocktails were great, as were the desserts. Must get the creme brulee.
Magnifique expérience ! De l'entrée au dessert en passant par les cocktails & recommandations de vin de choix ! Un grand bravo à l'équipe qui nous fait sentir être des princes. Je recommande vivement le profiterole avec son choux maison. Un délice !!

From the ambiance to the decor ,the food, the staff, the cocktails, if you are looking for a fine dining experience without making your wallet cry , do yourself a favor & give this place a try, i will be back & next time try the hotel iteself as well. Je dis rarement cela, mais notez mes mots, j'aimerais pouvoir noter plus de 5 étoiles dans toutes les catégories de cet endroit. Le personnel est incroyable dès le moment où vous entrez. La nourriture était délicieuse & à un prix incroyablement raisonnable pour le service luxueux & l'expérience reçue. De l'ambiance à la décoration, en passant par la nourriture, le personnel, les cocktails, si vous recherchez une expérience gastronomique sans faire pleurer votre portefeuille, rendez-vous service & essayez cet endroit, je reviendrai & la prochaine fois, essayez l'hôtel lui-même aussi.
Went here for my wife's birthday while on a trip to Montreal. C'est magnifique! Everything was...completely & utterly perfect. From the cocktails (an excellent Vieux Carre for me) to the tasting menu (the rabbit in the phyllo was my favorite) -- all amazing. Of note, they surprised my wife in the tasting menu - on the dessert plate it came out with a sparkler in it. The entire restaurant could not take their eyes off of it. It was spectacular!!!!
Every aspect of our dinner was delightful, from the first cocktail on through to dessert. The food was better than I was anticipating; absolutely delicious. & Pauline, our server, made the experience even more special with her humor & positive attitude. We will definitely be returning!
