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.
Honestly, Foiegwa is always a nice & excellent restaurant that never disappoints with its food selection.
I went with my friend to try their special 25$ set menu again this year after 9 pm, & it was such a steaaaaal.
Although the choice was pretty limited, the food was bussing & succulent.
We had the beef tartare, homemade spaghetti with butter & black truffle, & the duck breast. The taste & aroma of the food were so rich, flavorful, & tender.
Although the service was a little bit slower, the staff were still attentive & present to check on you. Definitely worth going back to try their other menus.
Cannot go wrong with truffle & pasta, superior combo. My friend doesn't like truffle & he gave this pasta a 10/10. Fries were also hugeeee & oh so good
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
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 $35 which included an appetizer (we got the eggs) plate (the truffle pasta) & dessert (the chocolate mousse). Everything was delicious. The foie gras was delicious. Our drinks were delicious too, though on the smaller side & a bit expensive compared to where else we've gone in Montreal. We left & agreed this is one of the best meals we've each had. The place is very small so I recommend a reservation.
I'd heard so many good things about this restaurant, so I finally decided to try it out - but honestly, it was mediocre at best. I ordered the late-night table d'hôte, starting with a stale potato salad, followed by a dry, cold, & pasty truffle pasta that barely had any truffle flavour. For dessert, I got a sandy brownie that felt like a piece that sat on the counter for days. The wine selection by the glass was okay. Given that it's only 25$ for the whole 3 course menu, it's definitely not bad, but I expected so much better for such an institution.

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.
Foiegwa is nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we walked in, the warmth of the staff set the tone for the evening. Everyone was genuinely kind, attentive, & welcoming without ever being intrusive.
The food was an absolute revelation!! We started with the asparagus à la grenobloise, which was bright, buttery, & perfectly balanced. It was simple in appearance but bursting with flavor. Then came the homemade spaghetti with butter, black truffle, egg yolk, & parmesan, a dish so rich & decadent it felt like a little piece of heaven on a plate. Every bite was silky, earthy, & indulgent in the best way possible. We finished with the profiteroles, delicate & airy, with just the right amount of sweetness to close the evening on a high note!
Overall, Foiegwa delivers that rare combination of refined cuisine & heartfelt hospitality. It's the kind of place where every detail, from the textures of the food to the thoughtfulness of the service, that makes you feel like you're experiencing something special. I can't wait to go back.
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?)
I love getting a bar seat to be served by Chloe, she's a gem 🌟 The truffle pasta & the caesar salad are perfect, def one of my favorite cozy spots in mtl

I love this place! Ive been countless times. I always come back for their famous truffle spaghetti it is amazing! I also enjoyed their 25$ three course meal special that they offer every Sunday to Thursday starting at 9pm, I would definitely recommend especially their Mushroom Veloute!
This was a really good restaurant. We tried the late night tasting menu & got the mushroom velouté (soup), smash burger & truffle pasta. The truffle pasta was the highlight of the meal really creamy & you could really taste the truffle. The smash burger was also good but I would say the bechamel fries were really good as well. The velouté was also really good & a great starter, personally it looked tastier than the chicken liver. Overall this is a great place for a date & the place is cozy & nice. The 25$ tasting menu is absolutely worth it
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.
