Bouillon Albert is a small wood & amber-clad space with intimate seating that offers a variety of small & larger plates of French bistro flavors done well & at affordable prices.
The Russian-style egg was simple yet well executed. The roasted bone marrow was rich, indulgent, & a great value for the price. The skate wing was moist & flaky, & paired with a zingy & aromatic brown butter sauce with lemon & capers.
The highlight of the meal was the dessert of rice pudding, creamy & deeply decadent with candied pecans that added a wonderful textural contrast. Every mouthful left me wanting more.
Overall, I was satisfied with my experience at Bouillon Albert & I am interested to come back to try what else they have to offer.
This new French restaurant offers a charming ambiance with dim lighting & an intimate atmosphere even with the hustle & bustle. The service was friendly, prompt, & attentive. The food exceeded my expectations, especially given the more affordable price point. The duck was my favourite dish, cooked to perfection & tenderly coming off the bone. The ravioli came close, with its perfect texture & flavour. The entrees were also delicious & so was the wine. The meal ended on a great note with the pecan rice pudding dessert, which was so rich & addictive. I would however skip on steak frites, which I thought were just ok. Otherwise, totally recommend giving this spot a try!
Très bonne cuisine française pour un prix relativement acceptable pour Montréal. Pour deux : entrées, plats, desserts + un 1/2 de vin blanc + taxes + tips = 160 CAD.
La nourriture est typiquement ce que l'on retrouve dans les brasseries françaises. Les portions sont généreuses & le service est rapide. Mention spéciale au riz au lait qui est vraiment très bon.
Un peu bruyant lors du service de 19h30 car le restaurant est assez petit mais ça s'est calmé au fur & mesure de la soirée.
Belle découverte de ce Bistrot style parisien
Plongés dans l'ambiance par le décor & les plats typiques proposés qui sont réussis !
On s'est vraiment régalés
Les desserts étaient incroyables (entre autres )
Bravo au super staff également!
We walked by on a Monday night & this spot looked great! Snagged a bar counter reservation for an hour later. We ordered beef tartare, duck confit, the small portion of the roasted chicken, & the cheese plate for dessert. Classic French bistro menu & the food was textbook perfect. Wonderful cocktails & wines. Loved the ambiance too. We were surrounded by others on dates, groups of good friends celebrating, & casual business dinners. Everyone was having a good time. The bartender was really friendly & let us try a few different wines they had open too. It was a cool bonus that some were from QC & the cheeses were all from QC. Highly recommend this spot!
Went here for a birthday dinner. Food was okay, but the service & atmosphere were excellent. Had the tartare, escargot & bone marrow to start. Wasn't blown away by any of it, but still decent. Had the cod with potatoes & steak frites for the mains, again, good without being great. Had the profiteroles & flan for dessert, which were again decent. Fairly priced which is a huge plus for this resto.
Aurait mérité un 5 étoiles car la cuisine est bonne (bon sauf le vin), les serveurs sont tops & l'atmosphère est cool. Par contre l'accueil était très mauvais, ceci dit bien rattrapé par un dessert offert.
C'était ma 2eme fois au Bouillon Albert. Malgré un petit couac lors du service (nous avons attendu environ 1h30 d'être servies), nous avons adoré notre expérience & cela n'a pas entaché l'ambiance de la soirée (car de toute façon on avait trop de choses à se raconter avec mon amie) ! Le staff était tellement désolé, au moins 3 personnes sont venues s'excuser & on nous a offert les boissons & les desserts. Le geste a été très apprécié… & après tout, les erreurs ça arrive à tout le monde !
La nourriture est délicieuse & les plats sont copieux !!! C'est sûr que je reviendrai encore !

We visited in mid-March 2025 as a group of four. We had made a reservation a week in advance, but upon arrival, we were seated at a table right in front of the door. When we asked if we could switch tables, the staff was unaccommodating, despite three empty tables being available. This negatively impacted both the service & atmosphere, as every time the door opened, it felt like we were sitting in a refrigerator. That said, we did appreciate the staff's efforts to keep the door closed to minimize the cold. As a suggestion, installing a space heater or raising the height of the divider could help improve the experience.
For food, we started with the soup as an entrée, but it was disappointing-it reminded us of canned Campbell's chicken noodle soup. We wouldn't recommend it. The bread was also underwhelming.
For mains, we ordered the duck, which was decent, the ravioli, which ended up being one of our favorites, & the bouchée à la reine, which was quite good. The rest was pretty average.
Since we were still hungry by dessert, we decided to order one of everything. Out of the five desserts, the profiteroles were the standout. The millefeuille & crème caramel, however, were pretty forgettable.
Overall, while the food had some highlights-especially the ravioli & profiteroles-the experience was let down by poor seating, unaccommodating service, & an underwhelming starter. If you're in the area, it's worth a try, but with a 7/10, there are likely better options.
J'y suis allé 2 fois. Pas facile à décrire : restaurant très français mais pas du tout bouillon. Les plats ne sont pas mauvais mais pas excellents non plus. En fin de compte les prix sont attrayants pour ce qui touche aux entrées & desserts mais pour le rapport qualité/prix des principaux autant aller manger dans les autres restos français classiques de Montréal. Mon avis perso sur ce que j'ai mangé : soupe de poissons trop liquide, escargots sont bons pas plus qu'ailleurs, ils ont probablement tous le même fournisseur. Le boeuf est bon mais j'étais déçu des frites type mcdo plutôt que bistro ; le cassoulet pas mal mais on aurait dit qu'il venait d'une conserverie de luxe & pas maison. Finalement pour le millefeuilles, texture de la crème pâtissière étrangement très farineuse. La salle est belle mais très sombre. Il est très désagréable d'être assis à côté de l'entrée car il y fait extrêmement froid malgré les rideaux. Les toilettes sont propres. J'y retournerais mais uniquement pour accompagner des amis, pas de ma propre initiative.
