Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Chez Lévêque as a classic French bistro in Montreal with warm, attentive service and a genuinely French atmosphere, offering a varied menu of well prepared classics, house made charcuterie, and a strong wine list at reasonable prices; diners praise the quality and consistency of many dishes, the friendly portions, and the comfortable, often convivial ambiance, while several notes mention occasional misses on certain dishes, moments of crowding or noise, and some concerns about value or service during busy times, but most agree it remains a reliable, beloved option worth returning to.

A perfect neighborhood bistro. The food was on par, the wine, $60!, so reasonable, atmosphere was exactly what you would expect. I would take customers here for dinner or a date night. Just lovely.

4 of us had a great meal. I had the farci mussels to start & the party had the boullabaise & I had the cod. Totally delicious. They have a deep wine menu, which we partook in. Great service, great food, great location. Do not pass this eatery by.

Très magnifique! A bit expensive but what one would expect for the level of quality. The salmon was cooked to perfection & my husband got an absolutely mouth watering lamb dish with a wine mushroom sauce. The escargot was amazing, highly recommend.

Our party of seven had a wonderful night out & excellent dinner at Che Levesque. Most of the party had Côté de boeuf. They reported it was fantastic, many said they thought the peppercorn sauce was one of the best they had tasted. People also liked the sides. I had the veal kidney in mustard sauce. Also excellent. Wine selection was good & we were able to select reasonably priced & nice bottles to go with the meal. Service & atmosphere were great. Will definitely go back the next time I am in Montreal.

We loved the food & wine. One can taste all the care & quality in every dish. The wine list has many choices that are worth trying: we had Haute Pistes Pinot Noir & went well with our fish & meat choices for the evening. The Baked Alaska was so delicious that for sure will come back next time.

The three of us had dinner tonight & despite the fact that the food was good, the service was horrible.
The different servings came in way too fast, I had french fried with my course, I asked for mayo, which I never received. We had ordered an expensive bottle of wine, never once, a server came over to pour other than the first glass. We never saw the original server we had, & it looks like everybody else would serve us whenever they would come by or thought about it. Two of us had finished eating while the third person was still eating, & the young server came over & cleaned up everything in front of the two of us, despite the fact that she was told that one of us was still eating. The worst service we had in a long time!
