Foiegwa propose une interprétation sans compromis des traditions culinaires françaises mariées à des classiques réconfortants et généreux. Le menu se concentre sur des plats de bistro emblématiques, caractérisés par des préparations riches comme le foie gras signature, les escargots et les steaks frites. Un élément central demeure le burger dense et décadent, alliant une boucherie traditionnelle à une exécution riche en beurre. L'aménagement intérieur évoque l'esthétique d'un café parisien typique, utilisant une configuration étroite qui favorise une ambiance dynamique et une proximité immédiate. Les miroirs et les finitions en laiton définissent l'espace, créant une atmosphère saturée qui privilégie le maximalisme des saveurs. L'établissement adopte une approche directe de la cuisine où la qualité des ingrédients dicte la composition de chaque assiette. Cette institution privilégie des portions robustes misant sur les techniques classiques plutôt que sur les tendances culinaires légères.

We had a birthday/business dinner for a group of 16 at Foiegwa, & it could not have gone better.
From the start, the team was incredibly accommodating in helping us plan for a group our size. Coordinating a dinner for 16 people is no small feat, & they made the entire process easy & seamless.
The food was outstanding across the board, & the drinks were just as impressive. Everything came out beautifully & the pacing of the meal worked perfectly for a group setting.
The atmosphere struck that ideal balance for us, fun & lively, but still polished enough for a business dinner.
Overall, a fantastic experience. I would absolutely recommend Foiegwa for both group dinners & special occasions.
When we arrived they didn't have a table for us despite our reservation. We waited 20 mins & were sat but after ordering drinks & food we had our food & almost finished it before getting our coffees & smoothie. Our server was very sweet & apologized & took them off the bill but it definitely impacted our experience. The food was decent, the blueberry pancake was really good but everything else was just okay. My server was still lovely & I really liked her just maybe an off day for sure.
Honestly, what an amazing place. Had a great time. Great selection on the menu, cozy & intimate. the food was amazing & the drinks were pretty nice. I would out this on my top 10 places, surely because of how nice & cozy it was. I will definitely go again. a must visit
I went here with my friends for brunch & we had a good time. The food was good. Lots of sea food options but limited in other areas. We ordered several dishes. It was a bit greasy but I liked the taste. The drinks were great!
Serve was very nice & friendly. The staff greeted us, led us to our seats & kept checking on us.
I took a picture of our food & shared it below.
After our meal it took a while to get the bill so that wait was a bit annoying.
Cozy & stylish place to dine in. Foiegwa was recommended by a few of my close friends who had great things to say about the menu items.
A few of us chose la table d'hôte which is great for those who come here for the first time & would like to taste a bit of everything, while I ordered the homemade truffle spaghetti with oysters on the side. The oysters were slightly too salty in my opinion. The pasta was impeccable & we had to make sure everyone tried it!!
We also ordered their cocktails, the Mariposa (the drink on the left) was delightful
le service était impeccable, les huîtres étaient fraîches, les drink succulents, une soirée parfaite je recommande fortement & le menu est très abordable!
Made reservations for New Years Day dinner. Ordered the French onion soup to start, which was delicious. Ordered the duck special of the day & the three course meal deal for $35 which included an appetizer (we got the eggs) plate (the truffle pasta) & dessert (the chocolate mousse). Everything was delicious. The foie gras was delicious. Our drinks were delicious too, though on the smaller side & a bit expensive compared to where else we've gone in Montreal. We left & agreed this is one of the best meals we've each had. The place is very small so I recommend a reservation.
After a couple of drinks at their speakeasy next door, we came here for the dinner service. The food could be better. Maybe I had a high expectation as the cocktails were done so well. Nothing stood out. They were nice enough to let us in earlier even though the reservation was for 30 mins later. Washroom was interesting, the tinted window inside faces a major street. I might not come back for this one but I would still try the other restaurants under the same owner.
We ordered the duck breast, which was good, although I personally would have preferred it a bit more cooked, but I didn't mention it to the staff. The tartare tasted great & came with a generous portion of fries, though the fries themselves were fairly standard. We also tried the honey peach drink, but it wasn't made with real fruit, which was a bit disappointing. That said, the staff were incredibly kind & friendly. Overall, it was a good experience!
