Notre serveur Dominic était fort sympathique & au petit soin avec ses clients. La musique était bonne & la nourriture était excellente. Je recommande la pieuvre en entrée qui était très tendre avec de belles saveurs. J'ai aussi bien aimé mon confit de canard. J'y retournerai certainement & je recommanderai à mes proches.View more

Great food & ambience. Our server, Ludo, was very attentive & personable. We tried his suggestions of onion soup, duck confit, & braised beef cheeks-all were excellent. We'll definitely dine at Gaspar again.View more

The most superb service I have ever experienced at a restaurant. The mushroom pasta & duck confit is a phenomenal addition to the restaurant French menu. Our memorable waitress Rachel, the manager & other staff are stellar representations of quality service.View more

Beautiful place, a bit loud but the food was amazing- grilled octopus was delightful, duck confit was amazing & the cheesecake was worth saving room for. Although they were crazy busy (a good sign) the wait staff & hostess were attentive & very thoughtful.View more

Très beau restaurant typique du Vieux Montréal. Il y a une bonne ambiance mais c'est très bruyant... La terrine de foie gras était excellente mais le confit de canard était trop cuit & beaucoup trop de salade dans l'assiette !!! Des légumes auraient été plus savoureux... Bon service.View more
Jeremy
Good service & nice Atmosphere. The Duck Confit was delicious, tender, not oily. Like the Foie Gras' rich, buttery flavor, & smooth & creamy texture. The beef cheek was a bit dry. The nutty Parmesan cheese was perfect with the creamy pasta.View more

I was lucky enough to have a fantastic tasting menu here with a large group. The escargot with nduja was a supremely appetizing starter, spicy & inviting. The foie gras terrine was unctuous & flavourful with plenty of acidity from the berry compote, & the duck confit was delicious too. Nice chocolate cake to round things off. Amazing food & nice drinks - I highly recommend this spot!View more

Restaurante francês que entrega uma culinária com um toque americano. Em comparaçao com os restaurantes franceses, deixa a desejar na culinária. Confit de canard cheio de molho barbecue por cima, nao consegui compreender a ideia rs. Os pratos estavam todos ok, mas nenhum eu chamaria de francês ou de delicioso, achei caro também pelo que entrega. Em média pratos acima de $30.View more

A Parisian Escape in the Heart of Montreal: A Five-Star Soirée at Gaspar Brasserie Francaise Montreal's culinary scene boasts a wealth of French influences, any trip to Montreal without trying experience its French gastronomy would be incomplete! So we decided to try this place in the old town. From the moment we stepped inside, the ambiance oozed sophistication. Crisp white tablecloths adorned the linen-draped tables, bathed in the warm glow of strategically placed chandeliers. The attentive staff, fluent in both French & English, ensured our every need was met with a smile & a genuine passion for the culinary arts. We started with a shared charcuterie board - a must-try for any lover of cured meats & handcrafted delicacies. From the melt-in-your-mouth duck prosciutto to the robustly spiced salami, each bite was a revelation. Alongside, a trio of house-made mustards, cornichons, & pickled vegetables offered the perfect counterpoints. For my main course, I opted for the duck confit. This French classic was executed to absolute perfection. The duck leg, slow-cooked until the meat fell off the bone with the gentlest touch, was beautifully crisped on the skin. Nestled on a bed of creamy mashed vegetables & surrounded by a rich, flavorful sauce, it was a dish that both comforted & tantalized. We decided to skip dessert as we were quite full. The restaurant also offers a robust wine list for the wine lovers. Overall we liked this place. The convenient location, friendly staff & good food 👌View more

First the good, lovely atmosphere & the foie gras was delicious. The wine was also very good (a French savignon blanc) & the dessert was excellent. I had the lemon tartlette, though it turned out to be lemon & cranberry when it arrived Unfortunately the experience was marred by some surprisingly lack luster service. First, I stood at the host stand when I entered for almost five minutes with no one there & not a single person acknowledging my presence or that of two other parties that came in after me. When a server eventually came over she pointed me to a table & then walked away. She didn't bring a menu, water, a greeting... nothing for another 5 minutes while she walked past my table four times. The restaurant was not even half full & I counted four staff on the floor. Eventually she took my order, I had the duck confit which was wildly overcooked. I have eaten a LOT of duck confit over the years & this was extremely dark in color almost black in parts, tough & chewy. I didn't even finish it. I can't speak as to why the quality of the duck was so off. Others wrote glowingly about it. As for the service, I totally understand if you're in the weeds-I used to work in service, but she didn't appear to be. She just seemed to not manage her tables well. Given the stellar reviews, perhaps I just came on an off night but it's surprising given its reputation & the price. Probably won't come back given there are so many other places to try... which is a shame. I might still recommend it but with some caveats.View more

Damien was an excellent server & we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. I got the bass & my partner got the duck confit. He looked like he was in heaven, which is what I looked like when I ate the chocolate cake for dessert. He had the crème brulée d'érable & savored every bite.View more

Belle expérience pour une première visite au Gaspar!
Le service était très attentionné & efficace. Belle ambiance pour nous qui étions un groupe de 6 personnes.
Côté cuisine je donne 4 étoiles, 4 personnes de mon groupe ont trouvé leur assiette très salée. Pour ma part, le confit de canard était délicieux. Les portions sont très correctes pour le prix.
Belle sélection de vins & cocktails.
A refaire!View more
