Info & Location
CHEZ LÉVÈQUE, a French brasserie in Outremont for over 50 years. From noon until late evening, this authentic Parisian "brasserie" boldly and lightly frolics on the themes of the Church in a bold humor. The institution has always excelled in perfectly mastered French classics to be savored with delight, such as homemade charcuterie by our master charcutier Frederic Triquet, tartares, duck dishes, offal, as well as seafood. Oysters, shrimp, lobsters and other seafood (depending on availability) freshly delivered by our local producers are a Chez Lévêque tradition, to the great delight of our loyal customers. Whether you come to sip a martini or champagne, feast on a comforting plate of foie gras or a club sandwich, or end the evening by nibbling on tasty treats, you will feel at home in this friendly, authentic and unpretentious restaurant!

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.View more

Let's start with the food. While French cuisine is known for its elegance & depth of flavor, the offerings at La Cuisine Française were regrettably lackluster. Take, for instance, the beef onglet dish-a staple that should be a showcase of robust flavors & careful preparation. Instead, what arrived at my table was a portion that barely seemed substantial, accompanied by a paltry serving of two beans & five pieces of carrots. This imbalance in portion size not only left me unsatisfied but also questioned the fairness in pricing for what was essentially an incomplete meal. Moreover, inconsistency marred the dining experience further. While an other person at our table received the exact same dish bursting with an abundance of green beans & carrots, which starkly contrasted with the sparse accompaniments on my plate. Such disparity in portioning & presentation not only undermines the credibility of the kitchen but also detracts from the overall dining ambiance. In terms of innovation, Chez Leveque seems to be stagnant. The menu, while featuring classic French dishes, lacks the creative flair & modern twists that could elevate it to a memorable dining experience. French cuisine has evolved significantly over the years, embracing new techniques & ingredients without losing its essence. It is disappointing to see a restaurant with so much potential settle for mediocrity instead of pushing culinary boundaries. Service, though courteous, was not enough to compensate for the culinary shortcomings. Attentiveness from the staff was appreciated, yet the fundamental issue remains: a lack of attention to detail & a failure to deliver on the promise of a truly exceptional French dining experience. Chez Leveque has a long way to go if it wishes to reclaim its potential & stand out in the competitive world of French dining. A revitalized menu that balances tradition with innovation, consistent portion sizes that justify the prices, & a renewed commitment to culinary excellence are essential steps towards achieving this goal. Until then, diners seeking an authentic & satisfying French meal may find themselves disappointed by what this restaurant currently offersView more

I quite enjoyed my visit! The service was wonderful! It came with house made pate (delicious)! I ordered offal, which was my first time, & I have no regrets! The steak tartare was refreshing!View more

Pour ceux qui ont envie d'une cuisine française classique mais vraiment classique, sans fioritures, correcte mais pas particulièrement raffinée. Le service le soir où nous y étions (groupe de 16) était sympathique mais il y avait des erreurs : confusion dans les plats, service par dessus le convive en face. Le rapport qualité prix n'y était pas. Il y a tellement de restaurants dans cette gamme de prix offrant une cuisine bien plus inventive. Je suis partie un peu triste.View more

L'Eveque reste une très bonne brasserie française,néanmoins la variété des plats proposés n'est plus à la hauteur.Je resterai fidèle à cette brasserie traditionnelle,néanmoins je chercherai à l'avenir de trouver une brasserie plus proche de la cuisine françaiseView more

Expérience très décevante. Désorganisation à l'arrivée. Bonne serveuse, mais ses aides avaient la gueule de bois, même pas une tentative de sourire ou de salutation, pas de menu complet pour le brunch, café tiède & goûtant le fond de carafe. Non, c'était une dernière visite!View more

Considering the price of the dishes & the reputation of the restaurant, the experience was more than disappointing. I went back after ten years hoping to find a montreal classic, but what a disappointment! the dishes were too salty, the service not great & bad, & the desserts not up to standard. You better try l'Express...View more

The service was good. The food was sadly beige / without any spark. Atmosphere is ok, really serious / business. I can't recommend this restaurant, considering there is an awesome competitor just in front in the same price range, but with twice the quality & taste.View more

Venant au restaurant depuis plusieurs années, hier j'ai été déçu par la qualité du service & des aliments : Tartare moins savoureux que d'habitude. Deux erreurs sur les plats, plus de 15 minutes pour recevoir un verre de vin ( j'avais terminé mon repas lorsque la serveuse est venu pour le verre, le serveur dépose la crèpe suzette sans la flambée? Par chance le manager est venu rectifier ce dernier élement. Cependant, aucun gestes promotionnel n'a été offert pour compenser ces éléments. Habitué à l'excellence... on dirait que la nouvelle équipe manque de formation... Je n'y retournerai plus.View more
