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.
Je vous recommande fortement ce restaurant de cuisine traditionnelle russe. J'ai eu la chance de manger un bon repas avec des amis à l'occasion d'un mariage. Le service était impeccable & la nourriture excellente. Je vais certainement y retourner un jour! Prenez le temps de saluer Oleg qui est un chef hors pair! Un secret dans le quartier Côte-des-Neiges à découvrir absolument!

A very cozy small authentic restaurant. We had the tasting menu & the food was good & you can tell it was home made. Almost like you were invited to a Russian grandmother's house. The waitress went above & beyond to make sure we had a good time, in a light hearted way.
