Très déçus de notre expérience (souper & déjeuner). Le rapport qualité-prix n'est pas au rendez-vous : les plats sont tout de même ordinaires & dispendieux & manquent d'accompagnements, à moins de les payer en supplément. Le service était lent malgré une salle peu remplie. Mention spéciale au serveur qui nous a suggéré des bouteilles de vin parmi les plus chères de la carte sans tenir compte de nos besoins. De plus, il est regrettable d'être accueillis en anglais & de devoir insister pour être servis en français.

Quel bel endroit! Nous avons passé un bon moment avec d'excellentes assiettes. On a même reçu un dessert surprise parce que c'était notre anniversaire de mariage. Le personnel est très présent malgré des problèmes de serveur informatique, il se démène pour que rien ne paraissent...c'est tout à leur honneur, vu le nombre de clients à servir. Chapeau & on sait qu'on va y revenir encore. Pierre

Thanks to our server Mathilda, we had a wonderful first night & dinner in Montreal. We came into town late & they were very accommodating.
Very helpful with our drink selections & great service with a nice warm atmosphere.
Our steak frites were spot on how we each like it & good potions for the price. Tres Bien!

Perfect evening at this restaurant, alovely dinner with my friends!! The atmosphere was great. Nice cocktail list, with a special mention for the Perles du Dragon & the Aurora. I loved the cheese board to share & the beef bourguignon. The service was wonderful, everyone who interacted with us was kind & helpful! :) I'll be back on my next trip to Montreal.

Had a lovely brunch at Brasserie 701 today. The service was incredibly accommodating to me & my family (little girl), which made the experience even better. The food was delicious across the board, & a special shoutout to the pistachio coffee.. absolutely worth ordering. Great atmosphere & a perfect spot for a relaxed brunch with a nice Old Port vibe. Highly recommend!
