The food here is incredible. Whether you go with the well-priced tasting menu or choose your own combination of à la carte options, you can't go wrong - the food is fresh & local, the dishes are creative, overall the meal is well worth the price. Combined with the quaint but lively atmosphere, this place is sure to please.
That said, it's the service that makes this place really shine. We were fortunate enough to have Cedric as both our server & bartender, & it was easily the best service we had during our stay in Montreal. He really made the meal that much more special.
In short, if you're even thinking about going to Helicoptre, just do it. You won't regret it.
What an amazing & surprising experience! From the moment that we walked in to leaving with our stomachs full, this was a great dining experience.
The locally sourced menu changes seasonally so what we had might be unique to others' experiences! We had the trumpet mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, rabbit, & pork. The dishes were all VERY unique & all the ingredients were paired perfectly! Flavourful, creative, & delicious! We were also amazed that one of the staff came by the table to re-fold our napkin when we went to the bathroom!
An exeptional restaurant in every regard. The wine pairing selections were extraordinary, each choice thoughtfully complementing the dishes. The food was outstanding, meeting & often exceeding the standards of the finest restaurants in Paris I've experienced before.

First time here & had a great time. One of those places that has super unique dishes mixing exotic flavours but it's good portions so you still eat a lot. Great service & atmosphere loved it definitely going back
One of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. My partner & I came up from Toronto for the night, for my birthday, & I'm so happy this was the place we chose. The food was exceptional; it's clear that a lot of thought & care went into the dishes. Every dish we had was better than the last, beautifully presented & crafted. The service was impeccable, with the servers & bartenders being attentive & conversational, but never in an intrusive way. The staff were friendly & kind, & clearly passionate about the food they served. My partner & I both work in restaurants & we were seriously impressed. It's a travesty l'helicoptere didn't make it to the Michelin list; they deserve it. Regardless, everyone there should be extremely proud of what they're doing. Absolute must try for anyone in Montreal, looking for an exceptional dining experience.
Great dining experience! We went for lunch & ordered à la carte. Be prepared to order more plates than you'd think. The dishes are small but full of flavor. We ordered the challah bread, the sourdough, the oyster mushrooms, & the beef tartare (first photo). In the second photo, we had the scallops & the guinea fowl. I would happily reorder everything. Next time, I'd get the tasting menu because I now know all the items on the menu are reliably excellent.
Came here for dinner & had their tasting menu. I was impressed by the quality, taste & creativity of these dishes. Loved the mussel starter. The oyster mushroom was to die for. I had mixed feelings about the trout since the different sauces felt a little confusing & didn't really go well when mixed together, however, each component was executed well. The duck was very flavourful & had extra bread to soak up the sauce. Parsnip dessert was very creative & delicious. I enjoyed the texture & balance of this dish. Bonus points for the fact that it wasn't too sweet.
We came up from Ottawa to Montreal to celebrate our 2-year anniversary, & after seeing so many great recommendations, we decided to try this restaurant. It was truly an unforgettable experience! Even though we're not drinking alcohol right now, we still love fun, creative drinks. The bartender went above & beyond, crafting a special drink that paired perfectly with one of our dishes. Every member of the staff was incredibly friendly & brought so much fun energy to the night-it made the whole experience even more memorable. At the end of our meal, they surprised us with some mocktail shots, & we all shared a toast together! The food was out of this world-each dish was bursting with flavor. We couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate. Highly recommend!
The best dinner I've ever had. Every single thing we had was perfect, we got to sit at the bar & have a great chat with our bartender! He made us amazing cocktails & surprises us with two amazing dishes as well! Will visit again when in Montreal 🩷
Thoughtful attention to detail from food to service. I appreciated that very much. We were a group of 3 & had the tasting menu. We were served some of the dishes as one single serving & one shared serving for the two of us sitting on one side of the table. I thought that was weird....either serve three separate plates or one plate to be shared by all of us. My favorite was the mushroom & bread dish. My least favorite was the bitter lima bean plate. I would come again but probably order off the menu as opposed to the tasting menu.
