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.
Pour ma part, ça été une déception culinaire. Cela m'a pris par surprise car les commentaires lus avaient placé mes attentes beaucoup hautes. L'extra foie gras dans le burger ne vaut vraiment pas la peine & il était sec à manger. Longue attente pour recevoir notre facture. Espace très restreint dans l'environnement. Dommage mais ça n'a pas été une belle expérience.
The brunch at Foie Gras was a real disappointment. I found it very average, with low-quality ingredients & flavors that were simply not there. The taste was lacking overall & did not meet expectations for a brunch experience.
On the positive side, their pasta dishes & the burger are actually quite decent & much better than the brunch. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to make up for how underwhelming the brunch was.

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.
Belle découverte encore grâce à Montréal à table! Le foie gras était très bon, les pâtes aux truffes simplement wow & la mousse au chocolat pas trop sucrée, délicieuse! Service impeccable! Que du plaisir!
Super restaurant ! Accueil très chaleureux.
J'ai pris le foie gras, le magret & la tarte tatin : un vrai délice ! & pourtant, je viens du Sud-Ouest de la France, donc le canard, ça me connaît 😅
Mon ami elle, a choisi le poulet, les moules & la mousse au chocolat : tout était incroyable.
Un vrai régal, un vrai bonheur, je recommande vivement !
Much smaller cozier space & ambiance when I went at night for the $25 night menu. Service was amicable, quick, they change cutlery per course, & most of all, everything was delicious with amazing taste & texture. Portions were good & the $25 menu should fill you up. Truffle spaghetti & foie gras from MTL à table $35 menu are musts.
Great place for a nice dinner. The duck & beef mains were excellent, wouldn't change a thing. Only thing I wish they had was a dish with the seared foie gras besides the add on. The foie gras appetiser was delicious, but that add on is really something else. Maybe I didn't notice it in the menu, but would love a small plate with the add on foie gras. Very pleasant service, cozy vibe. A top contender for special occasions.

I absolutely loved our experience at Foiegwa while visiting Montreal. The food was absolutely incredible, the ambiance was beautiful & fun, & the service was excellent.
Because we were celebrating my birthday, we decided to order from the'menu découverte'. Where all the food was absolutely fantastic, the star of the show was the Foie Gras appetizer. It was my favourite of the whole evening.
If you're looking for a great place for a date night, a night out with friends, or a place to celebrate a special occasion, I HIGHLY recommend Foiegwa!
It's such a cute little spot. The vibe is cozy & welcoming, & the staff was super nice & attentive throughout our meal.
We started with the fried chicken appetizer & the foie gras, both were great, but the foie gras really stood out, one of the best I've had. The fried chicken was tasty too, though the portion could've been a bit bigger. The asparagus was a bit of a letdown, not quite what we were hoping for.
For mains, I had the truffle tartare, which was absolutely delicious. My husband had the beef bavette, cooked & seasoned perfectly.
Overall, the food was great & the prices are really reasonable for the quality. Would definitely come back to try more!
Stupendous cocktails to start! The food was delicious as well. We shared a dozen oysters, white asparagus, magret with foie gras & the spaghetti. The oysters were perfectly shucked, sweet & briny. A bit of grated horseradish would have been a nice addition to the mignonette & hot sauce options. The white asparagus with clarified butter, capers & toasted croutons was absolutely delicious. However, the stalks were a bit thin & because of that, more of the tougher end was included making it a bit hard to cut & stringy...otherwise food would be solidly 5 star. The duck was delicious, nicely medium rare & the foie gras was melt in your mouth. The demi was delicious & went well with the potatoes. The truffled pasta was simple but not over powered with truffle oil & reminiscent of stringozzi con tartufo from our recent trip to Umbria. A vegetable side dish other than salad would be nice to add (beans, broccoli?)
This is a quaint, out of the way, restaurant that is 100% worth the trip. Make a reservation or join the waitlist so that you have the chance to enjoy this delicious food. Add foie gras to the smash burger or eat the duck breast & enjoy!!!!

We opted for the'menu découverte'. Each dish was well-prepared & showcased the chef's attention to detail.
The portions are medium-sized but surprisingly filling. The highlight, of course, was the lovely foie gras, which lives up to the restaurant's name. It was rich & flavorful
Another standout was the spaghetti with egg, black truffle, & parmesan. The combination of flavors & textures was lovely.
To finish off the meal, we indulged in a dessert of chocolate mousse topped with an almond tuile. The mousse was decadent & perfectly complemented by the crispy wafer cookie, creating a delightful end to our dining experience. 🍫🍪
Overall, my visit to @foiegwa was fantastic. With well-crafted dishes, a cozy atmosphere.
Very good experience. I loved the croissant Benedict with truffle. The foie Gras was also delicious. Service was attentive & welcoming. Right next to an amazing market! Will be back.
Amazing place. I am not disappointed! They let us order the tasting menu for just 1 guest which gave my mom the opportunity to order another dish for us to try & share. This business is ethical & mindful of their guests & we were taken care of by all staff member. I believe this venue pools their tips amongst staff members because it was obvious that all of them paid attention to each guest & would help each other out to look after guests & I appreciate that. We can feel it through the attentive care & quality of service. The bill came out at $75 for 2 people who ate until near explosion. This was a very very worthy meal. We tried the chicken liver mousse, foie gras au torchon, truffle spaghetti & the escargots. Escargots could use a bit more flavour. The other dishes were amazing. Jeremy & Sarah provided amazing service, so thank you. Will be back again!

* Cute little place, great vibe. * Service is super-friendly, but somewhat chaotic & disorganized. * Food is a hit or miss: Some dishes superb (the braised beef was heavenly), & some very mediocre & subpar (the Foie Gras pasta was starchy & hugely undercooked, the Crêpes Suzette was crude & drenched in Cointreau).
Better than Bouillon Bilk, at least in my opinion. This place scored higher on both quality & value. The foie gras was generous & delicious, the truffle pasta could easily compete with what you'd find in the markets of Florence, & the scallop risotto was spot on. The staff provided exceptional service. Thanks Sara!
Honnêtement, c'était vraiment très average. Le foie gras était bon, le tartare de thon juste je comprend pas pourquoi il le serve, vraiment aucun goût, sauf le goût de tomate qui fonctionne pas du tout à mon avis. La César est correcte, sans plus. Le service ça va, pas du tout impressionné par le sommelier, à part me nommer le nom des vins, j'ai eu aucune recommandation ou explication, très décevant. Une seule salle de bain, très inconvénient pour les clients, surtout qu'elle n'était pas propre. En sommes, je pense pas que ça vaut le détour.
Deux menus découvertes; foie gras avec le pain extraordinaire, entrées asperges excellentes, risotto pétoncles super, bavette & frites c'était ok mais un peu sceptique sur la qualité de la viande & la sauce (frites très bonnes). J'ai beaucoup aimé le pannacota / céréales pour dessert. Service bien rythmé. Toujours plein donc vaut mieux réserver.
