About

« […] delicious and carefully prepared. »

Jean-Philippe Tastet, Le Devoir

« Something to make year-round lovers of the sea salivate »

Iris Gagnon-Paradis, La Presse

Located in the heart of the Plateau Mont-Royal, the Joséphine restaurant offers original bistro cuisine that highlights fish and seafood.

Inspired by his many travels, chef Vincent Desaulniers revisits with passion classic dishes combined with different flavors of the world. On the plate, you will therefore find delicately crafted quality products intelligently enhanced with local ingredients. The varied menu evolving with the creativity of the chef over the seasons will satisfy everyone!

The meticulously crafted wine list features a wide selection of privately imported products and is constantly evolving.

With its warm atmosphere and its modern decor bathed in greenery and natural light, this restaurant on rue St-Denis will become your favorite destination for your outings as a couple or with friends, both to enjoy a meal and for happy hour.

We booked a table on the patio for 8:30pm on a Wednesday. When we got there, we got told that they don't take bookings for the patio & that we have to wait like any walk-in people (?). We finally got a table around 9:15pm, but they never gave us menus, so we waited another 20 minutes to get them (& we did have to ask for them!)

9:40ish, we finally started ordering & everything was fine after that. The food looked & tasted very good. We tried the oysters, calamaris, octopus & mussels.

Conclusion: don't bother booking & don't be in a hurry!

Josephine was recommended by concierge Caroline at Le Mount Stephen & it was the perfect suggestion for meeting a local friend while visiting Montreal. We shared the seabass with sauce chien & rapini. Despite being beyond delicious, we were unable to finish the generous portion meant for two. The very knowledgeable with their wine list & accommodating server (food allergies) took very good care of us.
Will be back next visit!
