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.

We visited with a group of 8 adults & 3 children. We made a reservation & the staff had set a table up for us with high chairs ready to go. Our waiter Brandan (sorry if I am misspelling your name!) was attentive, friendly, & knowledgeable about the menu. We had a variety of dishes (lobster bisque, the lobster, duck raviolis, beet salad, ny strip & the sole) & everything was really delicious! You can tell that the menu is deliberately crafted. All of our beverages were really good too, especially the eclat d'agrumes! Presentation was tidy & eyecatching & we will definitely come back the next time we are in Montreal! Thank you for the experience & for takkng care of me & my family :)

Came in for a corporate lunch, the place is clean & menu was good.

The only 2 issues i had was getting the bill in a timely fashion for us to be able to leave & the place was extremely loud where we were seated.

Great atmosphere. The food was decent but really expensive. We aren't drinkers, but it would probably be a good place for that. The dessert was pretty good (Apple Tart), but I got a special of Shrimp Risotto & it was really bland & crunchy tasting. My wife had the same experience with her Scallops Risotto

Je serai généreux avec les 4 étoiles.

On à souper à 4

On a partagé calmar frit & huitres. Qui étaient bien.

On a mangé :

Les ravioli ( ok )
Le magret de canard ( ok )
Le tartare de boeuf ( ok )
Le tartare de saumon ( ok )

Rien n'était vraiment bon , rien n'était pas bon non plus.

Le service était sympathique mais lent. Malgré le fait que la partie du bas du restaurant n'était pas pleine au tiers.

Bref je n'y retournerai pas mais ça peut être un bon dépannage près du centre bell.

Les prix trop cher pour le niveau de qualité de ce qu'on a mangé.

Les drinks essayé étaient ok sans plus.

Les vins au verre ok mais certains très dispendieux.

Bref c'est bien mais overpriced & à la grosseur de la place

Wow & Wow is exactly how I will describe this fantastic restaurant! We just landed 🛬 in Canada & this was our first experience at a restaurant. Their escargot was Devine…the service was off the charts…the staff & management were very gracious. Coming for the states, they all made us feel so welcome. 🙏 must must dine here! ❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?
