Good for what it was for sure. We went for my birthday, & everything was really nice. Nothing bad to say honestly just if I'm buying honest, for the cost I wasn't wooooowwwwwed but still yummy for sure & worth trying for yourselves
The Legendary Joe Beef. We had the Foie Gras double down, the rabbit, & the veal. This is basically the Rolls Royce of restaurants, you are paying for the name. Food was unlike anything I've ever had & was extremely flavourful, but Canadian shrinkflation means you pay a lot for a little, so I left hungry. Great experience though between the ambience & the staff, it was unforgettable.

This was our first time in Montréal & we had a fabulous time. This was the best meal of our trip by far & probably one of if not the best meal we have ever had. The food was incredible, the côte de boeuf was to die for & our waiter was so kind & has the best wine pairing suggestions. The atmosphere was so lovely & we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. Thank you Joe beef! We will definitely be going back.
Excellent food, my mom is a picky eater but surprisingly she loved everything we ate! Service was friendly & nice ! I wrote a note that it my mom's birthday but no bday plating or no bday comp.. tartare boeuf was so good, spicy clams was pretty okay, lobster spaghetti was good it reminds me of a lobster bisque, magret canard was excellent! The desserts was delicious marjolaine wasnt sweet at all ! Chesnut ice cream was delicious but towards the end it was very sweet after more bites
First off, Leo & Alex were great. They gave excellent service. But for a bill of almost $400 I expected a lot more. We ordered the croquettes (croquettes filled with smoked meat & cheese) which were good. The main was the Cote de Boeuf to share. We were told it was 30oz. Yeah sure, maybe 30oz before cooking & including the bones & all the fat. It was not satisfying for two people AT ALL. & while it was good, it definitely was not WOW for the price point. I've had better for a fraction of the price. & the fries... Don't get me started. They have the audacity to call them'Good fries' on the menu & they didn't even taste hand cut that day. Tasted like cooked from frozen & very underwhelming. & I am a French fry fiend.
Overall this place is overhyped & the value just isn't there. I chose this place because I heard the chef at Joe Beef worked under Martin Picard the chef from Au Pied de Cochon where we had eaten the week before (the sugar Shack one, & it was absolutely phenomenal!!!!) But Joe Beef was a complete let down & I DO NOT recommend. Regular food cos playing as high end.
From the drink options to the food everything was fantastic! All the dishes were complex & the contrast between the casual atmosphere & fine dining dishes made it an amazing meal.

Although their menu changes quite often, if you have the chance, the suckling pig was some of the best food I've ever eaten, & the homemade ham was absolutely worth ordering
One of the best meals & experiences I've ever had.
First the food - We had the raw scallop, escargot, lettuces, rabbit, lobster spaghetti & the Marjolaine for dessert. Flavors were complex yet clear, rich & dense without being overly heavy, beautifully crafted, cooked perfectly. We hesitated to order the lobster spaghetti wondering if it was just online hype but we were not disappointed in the slightest - perfect al dente cook on the pasta with a beautifully creamy & rich bisque-like sauce. The rabbit was so bold, rich & complex it was truly one of the most unique dishes I've ever had. But the raw scallop to start honestly stole the show. So fresh & vibrant - excellent way to start the meal. Don't sleep on the lettuce either it was a great refreshing compliment to a rich meal. You also just have to face palm yourself in amusement when you have such an incredible, unique & special dinner then make it to dessert & casually order the signature cake with a cappuccino & think'wait is THIS the best thing??'
The atmosphere - everything feels so intentional & meticulously chosen/placed yet completely unpretentious. The lighting is excellent & comfortable. Each room with slightly different character. The antiques, art, lamps, wall papers, etc. communicate the neighborhood's rich history as a former antique/furniture area.
The service - we sat at the bar & at first said that we wish we could have scored a table & now I never want to sit anywhere else. The entire bar team was absolutely excellent. Our server - Edouard I believe was is name - was absolutely fantastic guide through the menu & took our experience to the next level. Made suggestions, helped us pair drinks, coursed the meals out at a perfect pace, chatted with us & had us laughing & truly just took our entire experience to the next level. Ordering here is NOT easy, I wish I could have had everything & I always suffer from order envy - but Edouard helped us craft a perfectly balanced & complete meal. He also shared with us the history of the neighborhood &'Joe Beef' himself which was fascinating & special. The other server behind the bar - JJ - was equally kind & charismatic & after we told them we were celebrating our anniversary & what we enjoyed doing the entire bar team seamed to come together to write us a list of recommended bars, restaurants & places to see music.
Not only will be we back… this place has me wanting to move to Montreal.
Get the foie gras double down. It will leave you satisfied but with deep questions about the world. Lapin a la royale also slapped, absolute menu rarity. Five stars
