The Hermitage Museum in Saint-Petersburg is world famous. Real gourmets also remember the Hermitage (Ermitage) restaurant in Moscow. It is there, at the end of the XIX century, that French chef Lucien Olivier invented his renowned Russian salad.
Ermitage restaurant in Montreal keeps both traditions: the artistic atmosphere of the Saint-Petersburg Museum and the refined cuisine of Moscow famous French restaurant.
Ermitage feels like a cozy, elegant hideaway with old world decor and a warm, family run atmosphere. The menu embraces authentic Eastern European and European flavors, with many items made from scratch, from bread and butter to desserts. Dishes such as beef stroganoff, pelmeni, chicken Kiev and borscht earn standout praise, along with vareniki and a memorable tasting menu that showcases traditional technique. Desserts like medovik, blinchiki crepes and homemade ice cream top off meals, while the service is consistently attentive, friendly and welcoming. The ambiance, candlelight and refined yet comforting decor transport guests, making it a great setting for celebrations or intimate meals at good value. Ermitage is frequently described as a memorable, homey and special dining experience that keeps guests coming back.
fois uma experiência maravilhosa. Paramos por acaso e porque a avaliaçao do restaurante era boa e fomos surpreendidos com um atendimento surpreendente da madame Gala. Pedimos o menu degustaçao e tivemos a oportunidade de provar sabores nunca antes sentidos. A melhor parte fois a forma divertida com que fomos atendidos! Muito obrigada madame Gala! Eu e meus filhos nao esquecemos jamais!
Fomos lá sem querer, pois estávamos passando por perto, e fois uma experiência inesquecível! A Mme Gala é muito simpática e engraçada, e fez a gente se sentir em casa. Pedimos o menu degustaçao e tudo é muito diferente para nós, mas fomos positivamente surpreendidos pelas combinações. Vale a pena conhecer e experimentar o strogonoff autêntico (que é bem parecido com o nosso).
Nous avons partagé un menu dégustation pour deux: bon rapport qualité-prix, ce choix est très copieux & nous a fait découvrir de nombreux plats de qualité. L'intérieur est vraiment charmant & le service hautement sympathique. Une très bonne adresse dans Côte-des-Neiges !
Absolutely amazing! We had the tasting menu, & we would highly recommend it. Everything was such high quality, so tasty, & we left extremely full. We also had some vodka with the meal, would also recommend!

Mais quelle superbe découverte, au détour d' un tournoi! À retourner, absolument. & si vous êtes dans le coin, allez-y de confiance: tout est délicieux!
Our family of five had the table d'hote for lunch. The food was excellent. Our host was very welcoming, & we would recommend this restaurant to anyone who would like to enjoy traditional Russian food in a nice atmosphere. This place is located in 5 min walk from St-Joseph Oratory.
We had the delightful opportunity to dine at Ermitage on Friday night, & it was truly a wonderful experience. The warm ambiance & attentive service created the perfect setting for an exceptional evening. Right from the start, we were impressed by the interior decor & the well-spaced tables, providing us with a comfortable & romantic atmosphere to enjoy our evening with my partner. The menu at Ermitage is a true celebration of authenticity & flavor, highlighting the diverse tapestry of Russian culinary traditions. Our choices for the main course, the beef stroganoff, & lamb chops were absolutely delicious - highly recommended! The flavors brought back nostalgic memories of my childhood. What added an extra layer of warmth to our experience was the incredible kindness of the staff. Their hospitality & friendliness made our evening truly special. We look forward to returning to Ermitage in the future!
I want to say thank you to the whole team! It is truly one of a kind experience & service. The food is amazing to say the least. I have been to multiple Eastern European places around Montreal & so far, this is my #1 spot! It tastes authentic & leaves you full, but not in unpleasant way, rather it makes you feel so cozy & snoozy, I felt like I was back at my Babushka's place back when I was a child. Besides the food, I feel like what ties the whole experience together are the servers! Galina is an amazing human being! She knows how to make you feel comfortable & will make sure throughout your dinner you have everything that you need & more! As well as Nana ( I hope this is how you spell her name 😊) is always there to fill your cup with fresh water & give fresh baked bread. Always smiling & happy, they make you want to come back for more! The atmosphere in the place itself is also on point! No loud distracting music! No big bright lights! Just nice jazz/classical tunes & candles! 100% recommend!
The ambiance, the food & the service were all A+. The waitress is very welcoming & makes you feel at home. The food is typically russian / eastern european & made to the highest quality standard. I highly recommend the tasting menu. Will definitely come back!

Simply amazing! It was our first time there, & definitely not the last one. The food was exquisite (my husband is Russian but I'm vegetarian, & I was surprised about the tasty food). It was our 10th year wedding anniversary & the owner was incredible, they offered us a dessert with sparkly candles & crowns lol. Thank you very much!
