My third time here, they changed location but the food & service is perfect as always. The duck is so amazing & completely beyond my expectations. Will definitely visit again if I travel to Montreal in the future.View more

Restaurant gastronomique du centre animé de Montréal, nous avons bien mangé. Cependant, le tarif était très onéreux, & à plusieurs reprises nous nous sommes dit qu'il manquait quelque chose. Ne mangeant que très peu salé, les ravioles aux petits pois m'ont quelque peu brulé la langue. De plus, l'accord mets & vins canadiens n'était vraiment pas à la hauteur de nos attentes. En bon français & dans mon avis personnel, je ne peux pas recommander cet accord. Le cidre en dessert... Je passerais la prochaine fois. Enfin, la serveuse regardant avec insistance le TPE pour voir le pourboire qui allait être laissé, ce n'était pas très agréable. C'était une expérience sympathique, mais pour 330€ à deux, cela fait extrêmement cher & nous sommes repartis un peu déçus.View more

Had high expectations given the fantastic reviews, but I was shocked at how bad the food was here. This was undoubtedly my worst meal in all of Montreal during my trip here & the most expensive. Service was cold & sterile. Server was not very detailed when going through the menu. When I prodded about the origin/source of some of the ingredients, our server did not seem to be interested in having that conversation, which was disappointing for a restaurant at this price point. Tried the 5-course tasting menu for dinner. Was disappointed to learn that the 8-course menu was not available for the early seating (I do not believe this was made apparent or obvious during the booking process, but it could have been my oversight), but it ended up working in our favour because each course was subpar. I ordered the non-alcoholic pairing. I am a huge fan of non-alcoholic pairings at fine-dining restaurants across the world & will usually order it when available. They are stunning when executed correctly, but this was mostly a disappointment. Kombucha was alright, but I was severely let down by the dashi drink (which was indistinguishable from instant dashi), as well as the drink paired with the squash dessert. I do have to give credit to the fact that their concoctions were made in-house, as some restaurants just serve off-the-shelf non-alcoholic drinks. Kudos to the sommelier/server serving the drinks, as they did an excellent job explaining the drinks. Onto the food - flavour combinations were uninspiring to say the least. Not going to go through the entire menu but here are some notes: Ravioli with mussels, green peas & mascarpone - basic & boring flavours, over seasoned with a sauce that was overly acidic. Duck with berries, pepper, almonds (supplemented with a slab of foie gras for an extra 20CAD) - The protein itself was cooked well. Garnishes were substandard, however. Saving grace was the foie, which was beautiful, & the among the best I've ever had. Zero balance to the dish however, & the addition of almonds was head-scratching. I did mention this to our server, but they merely chuckled & seemed again to be uninterested in hearing my opinion On the contrary, had a wonderful experience at their sister restaurant, Cadet. Perhaps I came here on an off night.View more

An extraordinary dining experience, on every level! Perhaps the best I have ever had. We had the five course tasting menu with wine pairings. Each course was highly creative, with interesting colors, textures, & flavors. . .& always incredibly delicious. We enjoyed having both the Canadian & European wine pairings. They were so very different from one another, but both complemented the food perfectly. Kudos to the sommelier, Luec, who did an amazing job! The service could not have been better. Our server, Natalia, was so welcoming & professional, which elevated our experience to an even higher level. . .truly memorable. I would return to Montreal just to dine at Bouillon Bilk!View more

Loved our waitress! Loved the food! Atmosphère was kind of ordinary, but nice. I took my daughter & we had a fantastic time discussing the food & laughing about life. Also loved that it was open on Sunday evening.View more

Nous avions pris un menu dégustation. Les plats impliquent différentes techniques & textures contrastantes. La présentation visuelle est travaillée. Cependant, certains plats pourraient bénéficier d'une plus grande touche d'acidité afin de balancer la richesse des ingrédients ou de la sauce. De plus, certaines combinaisons créatives de saveurs étaient intéressantes, alors que d'autres nous ont laissé un brin perplexes (ex: dessert à base de mousse de courge). Par ailleurs, le pain maison servi était froid & les assiettes des plats servis chauds étaient tièdes contrairement à d'autres institutions de similaire renommée. Toutefois, il n'en demeure pas moins que l'appréciation gustative de tout plat est très personnelle à chacun/e. Somme toute, nous pouvions apprécier l'expertise, la qualité & la passion derrière tous les plats, de même que le professionnalisme de l'équipe. Nous souhaitons cependant partager les constats suivant quant à l'environnement immédiat: Le restaurant semble avoir une problématique avec des mouches à fruit. Au courant de la soirée, nous avions vu des mouches à fruit à différentes reprises (plus de cinq fois, parfois deux en même temps), ce qui a significativement nuit à notre expérience. Nous tenons à souligner que notre serveuse a rapidement fait part de notre préoccupation à sa superviseure. Cette dernière est ensuite venue à notre table pour nous faire part des démarches déjà entreprises dernièrement, le problème étant connu. Nous sommes absolument compréhensibles sur le fait que c'est une situation qui nécessite un temps de résolution longitudinal. Néanmoins, de nos expériences antérieures à d'autres restaurants de plus haute gamme, c'est la toute première fois que nous avons été exposés à un problème de cette nature & de telle étendue. Par ailleurs, l'espace est également un peu étroit entre les tables, ce qui faisait en sorte que nous pouvions entendre l'intégralité des conversations de nos voisins de table. Enfin, si vous êtes sensibles au va-&-vient continu des piétons & aux lumières clignotantes des voitures (ex: gyrophares de voitures de police), nous vous suggérons de ne pas vous asseoir face aux fenêtres. En effet, celles-ci donnent sur la rue immédiate & les rideaux laissent transparaître les ombres ainsi que les lumières. Pour conclure, cet avis ne reflète uniquement que notre expérience & notre appréciation personnelle. Il se veut informatif & constructif.View more

A Tantalizing Experience. Bouillon Bilk is a must for those who seek an experience like no other. If you are willing to play with different flavours & textures I would highly recommend their tasting menu. An incredible assortment of dishes, uniquely curated to highlight nothing but pure flavour. We left not only satisfied but excited to have experienced such a remarkable set of flavour combinations. We will be back.View more

It is one of the best restaurants I have been to in my life. The service was impecable, & our waiter & other staff were all very friendly, knowledgeable, & professional. The food was out of this world, every bite bursting with flavor, & the dishes were beautifully presented. I would 100% return, & I am looking forward to my next visit.View more

This is one of the best tables in Montreal & I stand by it - I've been dining at Bouillon Bilk for almost 10 years. If you like scallops, their version is a classic for a reason. Always perfectly cooked & paired with seasonal vegetables. Keep the bread to pick up all the delicious sauces that come with the dish. All the other entrees & main are good, creative & beautiful to look at. The service is premium - I never got a bad wine pairing with my meal. I highly recommend!View more

I've done the 8 course meal with the wine pairing twice at this place. Each time it's been an incredibly memorable experience & a gastronomic delight. Cannot recommend highly enough.View more
