Went on a Sunday 1 pm,eat on the terrace well greated ,my partner order salade niçoise waiter ask if she wanted anchovies & capers which she did! I ordered fish & chips!
The orders arrived niçoise it sorte of look trône together fast ,there were no anchovies or capers try to get the waiter's attention to no avail,when we did he said he was busy get back to us soon as!
Finally after 10 min we got the anchovies & capers ,somehow that those not seemed right!
Maybe he tough we were tourists!
It's to bad cause I've brought lots of friends visiting from out of town!
Don't think I would again!View more

Nous avons décidé de fêter un événement important (notre citoyenneté canadienne) dans ce restaurant qui propose une cuisine traditionnelle française. Nous avons été accueillis par le propriétaire qui a pris la peine de nous faire la conversation en attendant le reste des convives & qui nous a raconté l'histoire de sa brasserie; il nous a même offert un verre de champagne en apprenant la raison de notre venue. Concernant le repas, nous avons retrouvé avec plaisir des saveurs oubliées : quenelle pour moi, cassoulet pour mon mari, boudin noir pour ma fille. Le tout était délicieux. Le personnel a été très à l'écoute de nos besoins & très sympathique. Nous recommandons, assurément!View more

I went to Chez Alexandre for dinner & also revisited the hidden cigar lounge on the second floor, one of Montreal's best kept secrets if you're into cigars. It's been a while since I'd been, & while the space is a bit aged, it has a lot of character & history. You can bring your own cigar, & it's usually quiet during the week, which makes it a great spot to unwind. I highly recommend ordering an Americano with a shot of Baileys on the side, plus two sugar cubes. It's a simple pleasure that fits the vibe perfectly.
The food downstairs was average, but the service was good. & don't miss the photo wall on the main floor. It's packed with Montreal history & old-school charm. Fun fact for those who remember, the club next door used to be the iconic Funky Town. Also worth mentioning, this is one of the few places I know that has Peroni on tap.
If you're driving, ask about the free parking deal when you make your reservation. They offer parking in a nearby building if you're dining in. Definitely a unique spot in Montreal worth checking out.View more

We had excellent service from Selma. A lovely glass of Sancerre. We shared the smoked salmon & the avocado & crab starters & both had the duck - confit canard. The food was delicious- the best duck I have ever had. Thoroughly recommend.View more

Thoroughly enjoyed our experience last night. Alain was an outstanding host, Selma an efficient & friendly server, & Tarik made sure everything ran smoothly. Bustling, lively atmosphere as well.
Thanks!!View more

Restaurant à éviter. Accueil déplorable (on préfère aller boire un verre avant de vous accueillir) Des cocktails sans aucune saveur, une bouffe basique avec des frites trop cuites & des serveuses impolies. Très mauvaise soiréeView more

J'ai l'habitude de venir manger au restaurant Chez Alexandre à l'occasion de la Fête nationale du 14 juillet. Excellent service & nourriture de bonne qualité. Cependant, le menu « spécial « du 14 juillet me semble être toujours le même. Le Chef gagnerait à puiser dans sa carte pour faire varier le menu du 14 juillet chaque année.View more

THANKS God for Chez Alexandre. SAVING the day again. After a Horrible experience a 9ième at Eaton, Chez Alexandre was what is expected of a good restaurant: great homemade food, superb attentive service & no attitude from snutty staff. All delivered at fast face at reasonable price.. Merci Alain you have beautiful daughter BTW!

Pleasantly surprised!
I had Moules, frites with a glass of white wine. Great taste, good price considering location & ambiance. Presentation of the moules was in a small cauldron, so you take the top off & this is where you put the shells. When this was full, the garçon de table switch my small & cute cauldron for a dirty looking glass bowl...add a little bit more butter with the bread. Décor is tired & needs updating, I did not take any points off for this.View more
