Amazing fine dining experience at Hoogan & Beaufort! Out waiters Philix & Leo made the whole dinner special as they were attentive but also discreet. The explanation of the dishes was carefully done & you can feel the enthusiasm in the staff. The food is just wow from start to finish. We enjoyed very much the amouse bouche from the house & we went for a la carte dishes as we felt we could choose more dishes of our likings. The choice was great, the veal sweetbreads were amazing, the duck was the elevation of the French cuisine to it's best. Desserts were so elevated & particular in flavor. Service was seamless & we had 3 starters, 2 mains & 2 desserts (plus wine & digestives) in less than 2 hours with the two of us. Definitely recommended!
We had a few dishes but the highlights were the duck with foie gras & the peach dessert. Everything was thoughtfully curated & presented. Service staff was very knowledgeable & our wine parings were lovely
The room staff is excellent & deserves praise. But the food disappointed us when compared to other Michelin-starred restaurants we have been to. Products are excellent, but to some extent, the cuisine lacks creativity (again, compared to similar restaurants). Finally, I left hungry & would probably have had to ask for a second main meal. Prices are very affordable, but from experience, I'd rather pay more for a slightly larger quantity.
Hoogan & Beaufort is one of my favourite restaurants. We've been going for many years as we live nearby. The flavours are exquisite & the textures are incredible. I loved my cucumber cocktail but found my second agrume cocktail a little too strong/bitter. The bread is outstanding as it has always been. The only reason why I give this a 4 star for the first time is that the eggplant main was ridiculously small. Like a few slices of veggies & a few leaves. They have never catered to vegetarians but this should not be disguised as a main. It's misleading. The desserts were awesome!! I loved my waiter but some of the others were a little inexperienced. Unfortunately, I won't be back until the menu changes. :(
Unfortunately, this was one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had in Montreal, especially considering the reputation & price point.
We came for an 8:30 reservation for two & ordered à la carte: six warm oysters, the tartlet, a pasta dish, & the rib steak. Our bill came to around $319 before tip.
The oysters were probably the highlight. The sauce was excellent, although the oysters themselves felt slightly overcooked to me. The tartlet was fine, but nothing particularly memorable, essentially vegetables, cheese, & pastry without anything that made it feel special for a restaurant at this level.
More concerning was an ingredient issue with the tartlet. The menu described it as containing green peas, & when the dish was initially served, we were specifically told it was sweet green pea. It looked like fava bean to us, so we asked another server, who then explained that because of the season, they had substituted fava beans.
My partner has a fava bean allergy. I fully acknowledge that we should have proactively informed the restaurant about the allergy, so I am not blaming them for not knowing about it. However, if a listed ingredient has been substituted, especially with another legume, the staff should know what is actually in the dish & communicate it accurately. Being explicitly told'sweet green pea' when the dish actually contained fava bean is concerning.
The rib steak was the biggest disappointment. It came with two side dishes, which were a nice addition, & the overall portion was generous. However, the steak itself was underseasoned & nothing particularly special. We originally requested medium, but our server recommended medium-rare, so we followed the recommendation. The steak arrived properly medium-rare, so the cooking temperature was not the problem.
The problem was the quality of the meat. A very large portion had extremely tough sinew/connective tissue running through it. I ended up having to spit out several pieces because they simply could not be chewed. The steak knife provided was also surprisingly dull & struggled to cut through the meat.
At the end, after I left a relatively low tip, the server asked whether something had been wrong. I explained that the food simply wasn't to my taste & mentioned the steak. I was told that I should have said something earlier & that since we had eaten most of the food, there wasn't anything they could do. The server also suggested the steak may have been chewy because we had asked for it to be cooked more. That explanation did not make much sense to me: we had accepted their recommendation of medium-rare, the steak was in fact medium-rare, & the issue was the large amount of tough connective tissue rather than overcooked meat.
To be fair, the service throughout dinner was otherwise adequate. Plates were cleared quickly, our water was kept filled, & nobody was rude. But it also did not feel particularly attentive or welcoming. Nobody checked during the meal to ask how the dishes were, & the service overall felt fairly transactional.
The atmosphere also surprised me. It was quite loud, the open dining room felt much more casual than I expected at this price point, & we noticed small bugs flying around during dinner.
Ultimately, my biggest problem is value. At roughly $319 for two people before tip, I expected either exceptional food, exceptional service, or ideally both. I experienced neither. I could understand this meal much more easily at perhaps $200, solely because of portion. or even paying $250 if the steak had been genuinely outstanding. At this price, an underseasoned steak with that much inedible connective tissue is difficult to justify.
Maybe the tasting menu provides a completely different experience, but based on the à la carte meal we had, I genuinely struggle to understand the level of hype surrounding Hoogan & Beaufort. I have had significantly better food & more polished service elsewhere in Montreal.
I wanted to love this place. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I would not return.
I had such a memorable evening at Hoogan & Beaufort. I did the tasting menu with the wine pairing, & the food was excellent, but what really made the experience special was Raja, who was both my bartender & server.
Raja was incredible from start to finish. He took the time to explain each of the wines as well as ingredients I wasn't familiar with, & his knowledge & enthusiasm added so much to the experience. But what impressed me most was his genuine hospitality & his ability to connect people.
I was dining alone at the bar, & Raja introduced me to the gentleman dining solo next to me. We immediately hit it off & ended up staying & talking for the rest of the evening, long after we had finished our respective meals. Raja even gave us a short tour of the restaurant & took a photo of the two of us to commemorate the night.
The food & wine were wonderful, but it was Raja's warmth, thoughtfulness, & willingness to go above & beyond that turned a great dinner into a truly special evening. It's an experience I'll remember for a long time. Thank you, Raja!
Having dined at my fair share of tasting menu spots, the Michelin star here feels like a surprising choice. At 135 CAD per person, nothing was bad, but nothing truly stood out either. Montreal has several spots offering far more memorable tasting menus at a much lower price point in my opinion.
The clear highlights were the signature charred focaccia paired with the buckwheat spaghetti with choron foam. I also loved the desserts for the freshness, presentation & balance. As for the rest of the courses, from the tuna starter to the veal & morel, they were too safe & ultimately uninspiring.
Service was good & they checked in throughout the meal, but it felt entirely transactional. Once the bill was paid, the server immediately disappeared. Given the cost & the Michelin hype, the overall experience just lacked spark & the wow factor.
