Foiegwa offre une ambiance intime de bistrot parisien, un espace petit mais chaleureux et un service attentionné, avec un menu où les plats phares comme les pâtes à la truffe, le foie gras, le tartare et le magret se mêlent à des classiques comme les oeufs Benedict et des options brunch ou menu tardif qui séduisent, dans un cadre convivial et abordable. Si les visites sont souvent louées pour l'ambiance, la nourriture et le bon rapport qualité-prix, certains témoignages signalent un service parfois lent ou distrait, une salle étroite et bruyante et des ajustements de menu qui ne tiennent pas toujours leurs promesses; néanmoins l'impression générale est celle d'un endroit charmant pour un rendez-vous, un repas entre amis ou une occasion spéciale, avec des réservations recommandées en raison du petit espace.
Une très belle adresse si vous voulez manger un bon magret de canard & d'autres mets délicieux. Ils ont également une belle carte de cocktail :) À visiter!

We came for my partner's birthday; we enjoyed it very much. Food was excellent, service was a bit slow but they were also busy so I could clearly tell they were understaffed however the ambiance & music made up for it.
I've heard about Foiegwa since forever & finally tried it for the Mtrl a table event.
First of all, the service was so warm & friendly. Professional while not pretentious. I felt we were really a regular at a neighbourhood restaurant even though it was our first time here.
Food was delicious. Fair portions. Well balanced in flavours except for the pasta which was a bit salty.
Atmosphere was casual & cozy. Great for a date night.
Would definitely come back again. We kinda fell in love with that spot. Wish brunch took reservations!
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!
I'm honestly really disappointed with my brunch experience at Foiegwa today. My fiancé & I came here back in the summer of 2023 & had such an incredible meal that it stuck with us for years.
For my birthday brunch this November (2025), I decided to order the same thing - the chicken & waffles - but what came out was a totally different experience. The chicken was dry, overcooked, & served in small nugget-like pieces instead of the full, juicy portions they used to make. The waffles were also dry & lifeless, missing the balance & flavor that made the original dish special. For $25, it really felt like a downgrade. Thankfully, I added potatoes on the side - they ended up being the best part of the meal.
Photos attached: 2023 vs 2025 - the difference speaks for itself.
I'm giving 3 stars because not every dish here is bad (I've tried both brunch & dinner), but seeing how much this signature plate has changed makes me realize it's not worth the hype anymore. I really hope the kitchen revisits what once made their food great.
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 !
Very crowded restaurant. Had to ask people beside me to move their table so my gf could get out. Of the booth. Food & service are nothing to complain about, the atmosphere is nice just way too crowded.

Foiegwa is such a hidden gem. It's small, but that's exactly what makes it cozy (corner table gang 🙋🏻?♀?). The lighting & vibe make you feel right at home.
We went for Montréal à table, & the service was great from the start - friendly, clear, & attentive. I had the shrimp cocktail, spaghetti, & tartine. The shrimp cocktail was generous & flavorful, & the spaghetti… honestly, a party in my tummy. Perfectly cooked & so comforting.
What stood out most were the little details - the person who brought our food wasn't the same one who took the order, but he knew exactly who each dish was for (no awkward'who had the spaghetti?' moment 👏). Plates were cleared at the right time, never rushed.
The food felt homemade, full of care - the kind that brings back memories. My date loved the dessert too.
If you're looking for a cozy spot with great service & heartwarming food, Foiegwa is it.
Nous avons passé un bon moment chez Foiegwa. Le service était sympathique & efficace. Tous les plats étaient très bons. Mention spéciale aux spaghetti au beurre & truffe, un délice! La portion pourrait toutefois être un peu plus généreuse, j'ai dû commander un autre plat après, qui était aussi très bon. Bonne ambiance, mais tables très près les unes des autres vu la petitesse de l'endroit. Une belle découverte dans l'ensemble.
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.

A bit overhyped & overpriced. The food was just okay, nothing spectacular (mind you, its breakfast/brunch so I didn't have masaive expectations). The prices are high for what you get.
I had the unpleasant experience of asking for extra ham on my dish, I was told by the waiter that it was a substantial portion of ham which is why they couldn't simply replace the sausage in my dish with a portion of ham. When the plate got to me, there were two thin slices of ham, each cut in half. So really, this was one thin slice of a ham. I asked the waiter if he had forgotten the extra, he checked with the kitchen & said'no, this is it'. This extra portion (slice) was 4$.
It feels like a dishonest approach to extras, nothing worse than going to brunch & feeling that you're getting squeezed for money despite the hard costs of the meal being low (potatoes, bread, eggs & meat, no veggies). See the photos & judge if this would have been worth upwards of 30$ for you.
