Le menu est court & stable, mais tout est excellent. (Gros coups de coeur pour les ravioles & la truite à l'oseille.) C'est relativement simple mais bien fait! Le service est particulièrement professionnel & sympathique! J'y allais pour la 3e fois & j'y retournerai encore. ❤?

My family & I had a wonderful experience at Bouillon Albert. The evening started with exceptional cocktails, setting the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic meal.

The wine selection is excellent, with a thoughtful & diverse list that perfectly complemented our dinner. The staff was also very accommodating with our children, customizing their meals to suit their tastes, which was greatly appreciated.

For starters, my wife & I shared the eggs with caviar & the steak tartare - both beautifully prepared & delicious. For our mains, Amélie enjoyed the stingray while I had the trout, & both dishes were outstanding & paired wonderfully with the wines we selected. The kids loved their steak & fries, which looked so good that I was tempted to order it myself.

Beyond the food & drinks, the atmosphere was warm & inviting, with great music & truly attentive service throughout the evening.

A memorable dining experience from start to finish. We look forward to coming back.

Bouillon Albert is an absolute gen! Warm atmosphere, friendly staff & outstanding French home-style cooking- dishes that are as beautiful to look at as they are delicious! Genuine, carefully prepared food at a surprisingly affordable price, even more budget-friendly than most chain restaurants. If you are looking for an authentic French dining experience in Montreal, this is a must. Highly recommended!
