Foiegwa est souvent décrit comme un endroit charmant et cosy, avec une ambiance bistrot parisien qui se prête autant au brunch qu’au dîner ou à une soirée; le service est généralement salué pour sa chaleur, son efficacité et son attention, même si certains passages en période d’affluence peuvent donner une impression de rythme plus pressé ou de lenteur; côté cuisine, les plats vedettes reviennent fréquemment: des pâtes à la truffe et des plats de foie gras, du magret et des fruits de mer, des veloutés de champignons et des desserts qui clôturent bien le repas. Le rapport qualité-prix est perçu comme satisfaisant dans l’ensemble, mais certaines notes évoquent des portions plus petites ou des prix élevés au brunch, et quelques expériences de brunch ont laissé une impression mitigée. L’atmosphère intime et conviviale, les cocktails et les vins ajoutent à l’attrait, tout comme la possibilité de tester des menus découverte ou des offres nocturnes; en somme, Foiegwa apparaît comme une adresse prisée à Montréal pour des sorties chaleureuses et gourmandes, bien que des améliorations ponctuelles puissent être souhaitables selon les visites.
I was coming back after a good experience a few years ago. Overall the menu was pretty boring, especially the limited & rather expensive choice of desserts. The amount of food was on the low side, which is fine if it was backed up by very good quality but it wasn't really the case. My duck was at best luckwarm when I got it. In the end, I was disappointed & found it too expensive for what you get.

We visited foiegwa for our anniversary & I'm glad we came. The food, ambiance, & service were really top notch.
We were served a glass of Cava as a gift which was really nice from the team.
We wanted to go to foiegwa because we wanted dishes with truffle, & we definitely got our fix! Probably the best burger we've ever had, & the spaghetti was 10/10. Was very sad we didn't have room for dessert!
We ordered an entry (tarte fine), 2 meals (gnocchis & duck), & a dessert (mousse au chocolat avec tuile d'amande). The tarte & particularly the chocolate mousse were delicious. However, the gnocchis were dry/under cooked/grainy texture, & the pulled duck smelled & tasted very strange. We both forced ourselves to finish our meal. The mousse was missing the tuile d'amande, which is quite shameful since it is half the name of the dessert. When I asked the waiter about it, he told me that they had changed the recipe but did not update it on the menu. They did not even try to make a compensation for it. Staff was not very welcoming/smiling. Size were satisfactory for all meals (entry, main, dessert). We are not usually very picky eaters, but we were extremely disappointed by our experience. It was really overpriced compared to the quality of the food that we received & which has nothing to do with the taste & finesse of french cuisine. Best regards, Emilie.
We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Foiegwa! We did it all! Specialty cocktails, starters (oysters), mains & desserts. The spaghetti was very good, the vol-au-vent was delicious & the duck breast was very good. Service was pleasant & impeccable. We had two chocolate mousse … & the almond cookies were yummy! Could not love it more!
We always visit Foiegwa when we're in Montreal. Tiny space, but comfortable. Perfect for a casual date night. Love the spaghetti, so rich & delicious. Portion size could be slightly larger though. Also had the tartare which was excellent. Cocktails were wonderful. We had room for dessert & tried the chocolate mousse for the first time & it ended up being the star of the whole meal! I'm still thinking about it. Perfect balance of sweet & bitter chocolate flavour, & so light & creamy. We shared one, but next time I'm getting my own!
