Since 2011, Bouillon Bilk has been this simple place where we welcome people from the neighborhood for their business lunch, for their before or after show or for their desire to have a good time at any time.
Bouillon Bilk is widely praised as a refined and inventive fine dining destination in Montreal, with a sleek atmosphere that puts the focus on the food and a tasting menu with wine pairings that many consider exceptional. The dishes are described as thoughtfully composed, with bold yet balanced flavors and beautiful presentations, making the experience feel both upscale and comforting. Service is repeatedly lauded for being warm, attentive, and professional, helping create a memorable evening, though a few reviews mention moments of cold ambiance or pricing that feels high for some guests. Overall, Bouillon Bilk emerges as a standout choice for food lovers seeking creativity, quality ingredients, and a sophisticated dining journey that often warrants a return visit.
Service was top notch from start to finish. We had the eight course tasting menu & found each dish to be amazing. The exception would be the burnt onion powder on the tartare cracker. It is still burnt powder, so it doesn't taste good at all. I think they should rethink this combination. I'm not sure what they were thinking of serving that, lol ? Our favorite was the octopus with the peanut humus sauce & mousse. The wine list was on point. I'm still giving 5 starts despite the burned powder, knowing they will take this comment in consideration. Cheers !
The chefs tasting was perfectly paced & the amount of food was just right. Service was wonderful & decor was minimalist & lovely. The strawberry dessert was one of the best bites I've had in a while. A few of the dishes could have been better seasoned but overall a lovely meal.

27eme bougie soufflée au Bouillon Bilk ! Tout était parfait & incroyable. Merci à toute l’équipe salle & cuisine & surtout un grand merci a Krystelle, Minh & le maître d’hôtel pour un service inégalable.
Je recommande la basse côte, l’île flottante & surtout le baba chocolat & truffe.
Je ne sais par où commencer... 🥺 Nous avons choisi le Bouillon Bilk pour célébrer l'anniversaire de ma copine, & notre expérience a été tout simplement exceptionnelle.
Dès notre arrivée, le Maître d'hôtel nous a pris en charge de manière impeccable, malgré le restaurant complet. L'ambiance était tout simplement parfaite. Deux places au bar se sont libérées, & c'est là que Krystelle au bar a fait preuve d'un service exceptionnel. Minh, le sommelier, a surpassé nos attentes en nous recommandant non seulement des vins parfaits, mais aussi d'autres restaurants à essayer à Montréal.
Quant à la nourriture, elle était tout simplement incroyable. J'ai opté pour le cerf en spécial, tandis que ma compagne a savouré des basses côtes de bœuf. Les desserts étaient à couper le souffle, tout comme la sélection de vins qui nous a été proposée.
Je recommande le Bouillon Bilk à quiconque cherche une expérience gastronomique exceptionnelle à tous égards. C'était une soirée mémorable que nous n'oublierons jamais. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter. Bravo à toute l'équipe pour cette expérience inoubliable. Nous serons de retour...

Lovely dim light ambiance. Staff are super patient & welcoming. Food had no flaws everything was super well thought out, perfect portions & all super flavorful. Beef tartare was the stand out, with the mix of textures & creamy flavours giving a super delightful experience. Ile flonttante was super light & refreshing whereas the baba was super interesting with its hint of truffle & was decadent in flavour. They were classy & gave us two servings of bread free of charge & the prices were more than reasonable for what we got. We got the duck, beef, short rib, tuna & hiramasa in addition to the desserts & drinks. My favourite restaurant experience & I don’t live in Montreal!
My husband & I went there for my birthday dinner. It was an amazing experience. We had their 5 course tasting menu. They were very accommodating & catered to my vegetarian needs. My husband had their usual one. Our server Natalia was very helpful throughout. They presented & explained all of the dishes very well. & we simply loved all of them. Being a popular place, it was totally packed. So do make a reservation well in advance. Highly recommend for a fine dine experience!
The best that Montreal has to offer! If the Michelin guide made its way to Canada, Bouillon Bilk will no doubt get three Michelin stars (the highest possible ranking). This restaurant is my husband & I's top choice when it comes to date night, business dinners or just catching up with friends. Our wallets are grateful that we don't live right next door, otherwise we would be going there everyday... The fact that they use fresh seasonal ingredients & change their menu often makes us always longing to go back! Also, their homemade sourdough bread is to die for...
