Review Summary

Reviews portray Chez Lionel as a top French brasserie with superb food, attentive service, and a warm, Parisian inspired atmosphere that makes it a go-to choice for pre show dinners and celebrations; diners praise standout dishes such as lobster bisque, escargots, salmon tartare, foie gras, duck confit, beef bourguignon, sole meuniere and other offerings, along with craft cocktails and a strong wine list. The service is repeatedly described as impeccable, knowledgeable and friendly, with staff able to provide thoughtful recommendations and accommodate dietary needs; some notes mention slower service during busy periods and occasional inconsistencies like a duck confit that is dry or bread served cold, as well as premium prices. Reservations are recommended on event nights due to crowding. The atmosphere is described as vibrant, chic and lively, suitable for groups or dates, with many calling it a standout Montreal experience and a place to return to.

Chez Lionel is a French bar & restaurant located at the southeast corner of Drummond & Rene Levesque West. It is located directly across the street from the Sheraton Hotel & close to the Bell Centre.

The spacious restaurant was opened around April 2025 & occupies two floors. The manager, Nick, explained the second floor can be used for a private function for about 100 guests.

We tried some of their classic French dishes. The appetizers, escargot & foie gras, were delicious & full of rich flavour. The server also gave us slices of complementary baguette & a jar of mini pickles.

For main course, the duck breast, the Basque chicken & sole meunière did not disappoint.

The restaurant gave us a crème brûlée to help us celebrate a special anniversary occasion.

Chez Lionel is a great French restaurant serving locally sourced ingredients. We enjoyed our dinner. Highly recommend it.

Excellent French restaurant in the best location. Stunning ambiance & amazing food. Our sever was kind, knowledgeable & very attentive. He knew every food item on the menu, we were very impressed with his knowledge. We had a 3 year old with us & he was very kind to her. Thank you for a beautiful & enjoyable dinner in Montreal 🙏💖

Really nice restaurant that I would like to try a second time. The vibe is quite French.

The dishes were fine, but I felt like something was missing in the confit canard. The salad was really good, though. & the service is impeccable: they are kind & quick.

It was nearly empty when we went, so it was quiet & it felt exclusive.
