Le repas était excellent, j'ai mage le tartare de boeuf & il était exquis ! Le service était parfait, notre serveuse était super, à prit le temps de bien répondre à nos questions. L'endroit est bruyant mais c'est ce qui donne le ton a l'atmosphère. Une prochaine visite s'impose

Half way through the night, after the server took our order & how we want the meat to be cooked, they changed shift & we get another waiter. Once the food came, most of the orders were not made the way we each wanted. It was a mess. To be honest, the food was fair at best. Very disappointing.

Great space, amazing service. Food was good but nothing out of this world. Duck confit was delicious but heavy & lacking acidity in the salad to balance out.

La nourriture n'est pas mauvaise, mais très basic je dirais. J'ai prit l'entrée de calmar & le canard confit. J'ai malheureusement fait une indigestion alimentaire suite à mon souper... Le service était super bien, les serveuses & les serveurs sont très bien & super gentils! Pour ce qui est de l'ambiance, je trouvais que c'était un peu trop bruyant. C'était un peu décevant comme expérience & je regrette un peu d'y être allée pour mon anniversaire, je me me suis fiée aux avis & je dirais que ce n'est pas à la hauteur de ce qui est vanté.

Love this place! Even though it's busy & loud but feels like it's alive! The food was excellent! Our server was super sweet, & we were lucky enough to get some VIP service ! Highly recommend especially for a group

Had the beef bourgignon & shepherd's pie. Both were divine. Waiter also recommended a lovely Bordeaux to pair with our meal. Overall a great place for classic french fare

I recently dined at a fantastic restaurant with a fantastic atmosphere. I was fortunate enough to sit by the window on a rainy day, which created the perfect ambiance-there's something so relaxing about watching the rain while enjoying a meal. The food was equally impressive. I started with the French onion soup, which was rich & flavorful, with just the right balance of savory & sweet. For the entrée, I opted for the tartare de saumon, & it did not disappoint-fresh, vibrant, & perfectly seasoned. Overall, a delightful experience, & I highly recommend both the soup & the tartare de saumon for anyone visiting.

Service for lunch was slow & ok. Very polite. The hot coco was like 4 sips & cold. The French onion soup was good, & fish & chips were just ok.

A perfect spot for a family dinner. Excellent service. Somehow the vibe is just right: not too formal, not too casual. Classic menu options with a touch of flair.

Que dire de ce restaurant légendaire qui n'a pas deja été dit de ces partenaires. Pouvons nous dire être Montréalais si on ne visite pas cet endroit. Chef, toujours aussi délicieux ! Service "a1" .

Nice room, efficient servers - we were a party of 10 - but goodness the food. The flavourful salad was the high point of the meal, but might have served three - is this the Americanization of brasserie servings? The soup was thin, bland & instantly forgettable; the confit de canard looked forlorn & overcooked in a vast forest of arugula, had little flavour & no succulence & the roast potatoes underneath were meagre & hard to locate in all that foliage. A lackluster fruit salad with a tiny dollop of sherbet made dessert hardly worth the effort.'Disappointing' is the polite term for what Holder gets away with.
