Mon fils m'a offert une belle sortie au restaurant de mon choix: J'ai choisi le magnifique Bouillon Bilk!
Service impeccable. Parfait même!
Ambiance chaleureuse & calfeutrée, parfaite pour passer un bon moment. Les plats sont audacieux & pleins de saveurs, la musique agréable accompagne parfaitement l'expérience. Mention spéciale pour les cocktails, tout simplement incroyables. Une très belle adresse que je recommande vivement. Merci pour ces beaux moments & cette expérience gustative inoubliable! ❤?

Atmosphere is pretty bad considering the price level. Floor is not even wood, & service is lackluster at most.

Very posh place. The customer is king… ask for anything, even if it's not on the menu & the staff will bend the rules of physics to get it !

Je suis allée dans ce restaurant pour un souper avec mon copain & nous avons pris le menu dégustation 5 plats.

La nourriture est bonne dans l'ensemble, avec une mention spéciale pour la pintade, qui était vraiment excellente. Le service est aussi rapide & efficace. Un gros plus: il est facile de se parler tranquillement!

Cela dit, certains plats m'ont moins plu. Les pétoncles crues étaient, selon moi, & c'est vraiment personnel, trop dominées par l'acidité des agrumes. Pour le dessert au chocolat, je n'ai pas aimé les champignons. Je n'a pas trouvé qu'ils ajoutaient quoi que ce soit plat & j'ai donc décidé de les retirer & c'était plus à mon goût ainsi.

Avec le recul, j'aurais sans doute préféré choisir mes plats à la carte plutôt que le menu dégustation.

À noter que j'étais déjà venue auparavant, en groupe, dans l'ancien local, & j'avais alors préféré mon expérience.

Ceci dit, je ne reviendrais pas pour une date en amoureux, mais je visiterais à nouveau pour un repas entre amis ou collègues.

Always happy when I come here
The must try are the scallops & the eggplant main. I usually get the eggplant main as appetizer to share & then my main is scallops. My favorite go to spot for a nice meal out.

Great restaurant! My partner & I went here for the 5 course tasting menu & I can honestly say it is some of the best food I have ever had!

You can tell the chefs really put a lot of thought into the composition of the dishes & the order in which you eat them. All the flavours & aromas blend together seamlessly & the quality of the ingredients could be tasted.

My one slight criticism is that the restaurant itself is not as interesting as the menu. It's just a basic dining hall with simple tables & a simple modern setup. However, definitely don't miss out on the food just because of this!

The servers were also so on top of it. We never poured ourselves wine from our bottle once. They were always attending to us & explaining each dish.

Highly recommend!

We had the five course tasting menu with the Canadian wine pairings & it was, quite frankly, the most delicious meal I've had in Montreal. I was so impressed at the flavour & quality of every dish, each presented so elegantly without being over the top or gimmicky. Service was outstanding in every way. We specifically want to shout out our sommelier, who did such a stunning job with the wine pairings. This spot is NOT to be missed. I already look forward to returning! Thank you to Bouillon Bilk for an unforgettable anniversary dinner!

Absolutely outstanding. I'm not a young diner anymore, & I've eaten at more restaurants than I can count, but Bouillon Bilk truly stands out. The food is refined without feeling pretentious, the flavours are thoughtful, & the presentation is beautiful. The staff are attentive in a quiet, professional way that makes the whole evening feel easy. Every course was memorable. A remarkable dining experience & well worth the visit. Five stars.

Nourriture : convenable.

Atmosphère : froide.

Service : lent & dépersonnalisé

En gros : 5 services en 3 heures & demie. Quelques mélanges dans les plats. Ressortir avec un goût amer en bouche & repenser seulement à devoir remanger un autre repas.

I've been there 5 times, their old location & the new one. Always excellent, they favor ingredients from the province of Quebec… & it's wonderful, as the province has an amazing selection of great products. Their course menus are both inventive & festive. Great wine list, better than many 1 or 2 stars Michelin restaurants, very good service & sommelier - overall a wonderful experience , well priced.

A bit chamouflage on the outside, inside its a lovely restaurant with nice lights hanging from an atrium ceiling & soft light at table level. The food is layered & well thought out. Tasting menu definitely worth it. Terrific wine list too. The staff were very accommodating to suit individual preferences.

J'ai vraiment apprécié ma visite ! La nourriture était excellente, & le rosé est ma boisson préférée. Le saumon accompagné de pommes de terre au four était absolument délicieux ! J'ai aussi adoré le fromage allemand, parfaitement associé au pain complet & aux bords croustillants. La saucisse froide était également délicieuse. Le personnel était très accueillant, comme des membres de la famille, avec des sourires chaleureux & une ambiance tellement agréable. Un endroit idéal pour savourer les saveurs locales dans une ambiance chaleureuse & conviviale !

Pour un souper d'affaires, nous avons pris le menu dégustation 5 services & tout a été très bons. Les plats en petites portions, mais suffisantes, étaient très bien présentés & surtout goûteux, cuits à la perfection & de très grande qualité. Une adresse à retenir!
