Chez Alexandre et fils offre une atmosphère chaleureuse et élégante rappelant un bistrot français, avec un cadre convivial et un coin salon cigare très apprécié. La cuisine française est savoureuse et bien exécutée, du tartare à l'entrecôte en passant par le canard confit, et les plats bénéficient de vins bien choisis, le tout servi par une équipe professionnelle et attentionnée. Considéré comme une institution à Montréal, le restaurant attire locaux et visiteurs pour des repas conviviaux et mémorables, des occasions spéciales et des déjeuners décontractés, toujours dans une ambiance chaleureuse et authentique.
Une bonne adresse pour goûter à la gastronomie française style bistrot. Bonne emplacement desservi par le métro Peel, à quelques minutes de l'hyper centre de Montréal.
Il y a un espace fumeurs & une petite cave à cigares pour toutes les bourses ( de $35 à 75$, exclusivement des cigares cubains, quand je suis passé).
Édit: je suis repassé un samedi après midi. La salle fumeur est encore plus agréable avec du monde! Cette fois, j'ai ramené mon cigare - Nicaragua/Honduras c'est bien aussi ;)

Notre soiree fut parfaite ! Nous célébrions deux anniversaires qui furent soulignés & avons terminé la soirée au salon cigare. Ambiance, employé(e)s & nourriture… génial !
Just found this gem. Was looking for a place to smoke my cigars since Stogies was temporarily closed on that night. They have a nice cozy cigar lounge upstairs. Well ventilated. My next visit will be, supper & then finish the night with a couple of cigars & a few glasses of scotch.
I was at the cigar lounge , super classy & nice elegant environment, the place is cozy & clean , tv available & confortable chairs , small but good selection of Cuban cigars . Not bad price , feels good to have a place like this downtown . I didn't try the food , just the cigar lounge but I'll definitely be back for the food also :) thanks for a great start of my day
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.
It was quite hot outside so we chose to sit inside. We did smell a bit of cigar smoke when we walked in. The restaurant does have a French brasserie & bistro feel. We ordered beef cheek with vegetables & lobster pasta. The beef cheek was flavorful & tender. Lobster pasta was tasty. Overall, I enjoyed the food even though it was a bit pricey.

I recently visited Chez Alexandre & had a great experience overall. The waitress & the service were amazing. However, my evening took a negative turn when the manager, who was working that Thursday night, was extremely rude & dismissive. He ignored my requests & even stated that he didn't have time to assist me, when the place is not even packed. Considering Im there once a week,, the least he could do was listen to my simple request for a lighter for the cigar I bought at the restaurant. While everything else was exceptional, this specific manager's behavior was unacceptable & should be addressed.
It's been 25 years since the last visit to this place. My wife & I went after the game. Atmosphere is nice, calm & peaceful. Decor is the old traditional Montreal feel (we enjoy it). If you do not like cigar smoke or have breathing issues... you may have to reassess, as they have a cigar bar upstairs. We have low expectations & gauge our experiences objectively, with the hopes this will improve the operations & thus improve the experience of future customers. I was going to order wings, but changed my mind. The wings are precoated without option. Normally a naked wing with option of sauce on side or tossed. We ordered 6 oysters, came on frozen plate ice👍 & I asked for lemon & hot sauce, which the grabbed🙏. Most disappointing was the charcuterie board. Do not order! $27.00 for what you see here. A double rum cost $28.22 Hendricks $16.00 We feel that the cost, didn't meet the experience. We unfortunately won't be back the next time we visit. Much better experiences for the value around Montreal.
We've been here twice: 2007 & 2023, & have had an amazing experience both times. The risotto, duck confit, & steak frites are exceptional, & service was lovely. We also enjoyed the cigar lounge after dinner. If you're looking for an authentic French dining experience, this is it!
Tout était génial! Un seul détail est l odeur de cigar dans le resto. Quand on ne fume pas, l odeur est un peu désagreable. Heureusement, on ne l a sentie qu au bar, pas à notre table pour manger. Merci!
Souper de soirée d'un Bachelor, la nourriture est réconfortante & de qualité, Chez Alexandre est digne de sa réputation.
Le cigar lounge est très apprécié également après un bon repas !
Lovely & comprehensive experience, delivered with charm & professionalism; cocktails, wine, meal & cigars upstairs (we came for the cigars). Arrived early & got brilliant attention. Beef tartare & fish were excellent. Prices are reasonable. & an extraordinary surprise Canadian history immersion on the wall.
