Nous avions le menu dégustation avec l'accord vin. Les portions sont vraiment généreuses. Pour le mets principal, j'avais commandé le maigret de canard & mon compagnon l'agneau. Quel délice! Le service est attentionné mais un peu rapide. Un seul mini bémol pour la gourmande que je suis, le dessert composé d'un trio ne contient pas de chocolat. Comme je suis une amatrice de thé, j'étais comblée par le thé vert de Camelia Sinensis. On y retourne avec plaisir.
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.

2e fois : toujours aussi bon & élégant.
Les cocktails & les plats sont top. L'ambiance musicale est 100% française. Zero attente pour nous ce soir. Un repas bouclé en 1h30.
Le soufflé est parfaitement exécuté.
Je recommande si vous chercher un bon français dans le Vieux-Montréal.
1ere fois : 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 !!
We stayed at the Hotel Bonaparte & decided to dine in for dinner downstairs.
We ordered off the menu a la carté instead of doing the tasting, which also seemed delicious.
Started off with the soup of the day which was a celery & leek soup that they served to us in 2 plates as we were sharing.
For apps we ordered the homemade smoked salmon & the mushroom ravioli, both were so tasty. I'm a bit biased for any dish that has mushrooms & salmon haha.
For mains we shared the scallop delight & one of the specials, which was a hanger steak. You can never go wrong with a buttery scallop & grilled veggies. The steak in it's jus was 👌👌.
For dessert we ordered the chocolate soufflé, which takes about 20mins to prepare. The servers & manager were so accommodating of our baby & even offered to bring us our dessert while we went upstairs to feed our baby. We ended up coming back down & finishing up the soufflé there but it was a nice offer from them.
Ended off the night not being overly full, which is always a great feeling!
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!
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
I had been looking forward to trying Bonaparte for quite some time, especially during MTLàTABLE, but unfortunately, my experience was far below expectations.
It took over an hour for our first course to arrive, which immediately set a disappointing tone for the evening. When I mentioned the delay twice, the response I received was far from professional - instead of an apology or a gesture of goodwill, I was simply told,'I already told you it's coming.' For a restaurant with such a strong reputation, that lack of courtesy was truly surprising.
As for the food, it was uneven. The lobster bisque was fine but nothing remarkable. The salad was very bitter & in general lacked flavor, almost bland. The goat cheese was enjoyable, & the terrine was decent though not memorable. The lamb & the salmon mousse were good. The beef was tough & difficult to chew, while the pork was tender & well-prepared. The desserts followed the same pattern - the carrot cake was pleasant, but the chocolate mousse felt ordinary.
Overall, the evening was disappointing. After such a long wait & indifferent service, the experience did not live up to Bonaparte's reputation or my expectations. Sadly, I don't think I'll be returning.
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.
