Les retours évoquent une expérience magique à La Gargamelle, un accueil attentif et un service exceptionnel tout au long de la soirée, une ambiance cosy et des plats incroyablement délicieux, et la recommandation d'une option de service avec un accord cocktails qui offre une expérience unique. Un conseil pratique indique d'apporter un pull supplémentaire en hiver car le cadre peut être frais, mais les murs en pierre et les fenêtres anciennes donnent du caractère à l'ensemble. L'expérience est décrite comme l'une des meilleures récentes, notamment lors d'un dîner à Montréal où le menu dégustation cinq plats a été testé pour célébrer un anniversaire, avec une qualité des plats et des cocktails jugée au point de dépasser les attentes. L'attention portée au service et à la préparation des plats est soulignée comme créant une impression de famille. Un ajout surprenant, le coeur de thon, à la dégustation, a été évoqué comme un élément distinctif dans le plat d'oeufs mimosa. Dans l'ensemble, La Gargamelle reçoit une forte recommandation pour une expérience culinaire unique et delicieuse.
Our experience at Gargamelle was magical! We were welcomed by the co owners Loyd & Manu, who both offered exceptional service throughout the evening. The ambiance was cozy & the food was insanely delicious. We definitely recommend the 6 serving option with cocktail pairing - it's such a unique experience! Quick tip - bring an extra sweater, it tends to get a bit cold during the winter (but the rustic stone walls & old-age windows make it all worth it)!
Our experience at La Gargamelle was the best I've had in a long time! My partner & I drove out to Montreal for an early birthday celebration & decided to try out the five course tasting menu. The quality of the food, paired with the delicious cocktails was above & beyond. The care that Manu & Lloyd put into the customer service & food preparation made us feel as if we were family. Mikael even brought out the Tuna Heart (a delicious & surprising addition to the devilled egg course) for us to see. If you are looking for a unique & delectable dining experience, I highly recommend La Gargamelle.

This place is beyond words! Chef Loyd & Manu serve a 5 stars experience with the utmost charm & simplicity in a special environment where the laidback & cool atmosphere is very palpable. The food here is unbelievable, superb, delicious & the list of compliments goes on. 5 stars on service, attention, sophisticated menu & their welcoming attitude towards customers. I'm not a seafood person & Manu along with Chef Loyd were more than accommodating. Can't stress enough how excellent they both were. Chef Loyd talked to us while he cooked, danced, explained the dishes to us & sat a bit on the table to talk to everyone. Manu was beyond charming when presenting the dishes & drinks. I didn't have my meals with drinks, but tried a few from one of my friends & ended up ordering one for myself. I strongly recommend you to try the grappa if you have the chance. It has a touch of basil & herb butter, absolutely fantastic. Bottom line: try this restaurant, the food is amazing & service is outstanding! Kudos to both of them!
Absolutely spectacular dining experience 👌 The tasting menu was just the right size & delighted the eyes & the taste buds. Fresh, quality ingredients & attention to texture & balance made every bite a pleasure. Their unique fat-washed cocktails were top-notch & they have excellent wine selections. The ambiance is cozy & welcoming, as if you're in someone's fancy loft, with a nice view of the Old Port. Perfect for date night! The service was exceptional, & this is quickly becoming one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal.
A hidden gem. Even with so many great restaurants this is my favorite dining experience in Old Montreal. Great food, friendly service, an overall wonderful dining experience. Definately returning on our next visit!
What a cozy hidden gem! Manu & Loyd have a wonderfully intimate restaurant, my partner & I felt transported to some generations-old family restaurant in the european countryside. Working our way through a tasting menu, each course managed to wow us in different ways! All of the dishes were masterfully presented, even before taking any bites we knew we were in for something special. The menu explored various seafood dishes through a myriad of expressions: spiced oysters to refreshing ceviche to rich, buttery crab! Alongside we had pairings of non-alcoholic cocktails, since my partner & I are currently on a sobriety break. This was by no means a compromise on full flavour! Gargamelle was a delightful experience. The room itself is thoughtfully decorated, feeling cozy & welcoming. The drinks kept us searching for the bottoms of the glasses. The food is of course the star of the show, delighting at every turn... To anyone looking for the perfect restaurant for date night in the Old Port, look no further!
Une experience formidable, des plats originaux, exquis & un pairing de cocktails sublimes. On y est très bien reçu, l'ambiance est parfaite, toute l'équipe est à l'écoute. En somme, un endroit que vous devez absolument découvrir , vous ne serez clairement pas déçu
Love the vibe & people that run this place. Food is made with passion & care. The hosts make you feel like you are visiting their home. Friendly & easy going vibes. Definitely go with the food & drink pairings. Perfection!

1000/10. I happened to walk by & ended up making a reservation just to try it, 100% worth it. The food was absolutely amazing, had two appetizers & two mains, nothing disappointed. Beautiful plating & the flavours were so good. The chef was super friendly & came to check in as well The only issue were the drinks, I didn't enjoy them as they were extremely strong but maybe it's just a me thing I will be coming back!
Amazing culinary experience. Food is unique & we'll thought out. You see the chef making the food for everyone in the resto amd comes out to say hi. Great experience will be back.
Our visit to La Gargamelle for the 5-course menu was truly a treat! The food was excellent, & the ambiance was warm & homey, making it a perfect setting for a cozy meal. Our waitress was super nice, & the personal touch of the chef coming out to say hi added to the overall wonderful experience. Highly recommended! ----- Notre visite chez La Gargamelle pour le menu en 5 services a été un vrai régal! La nourriture était excellente, & l'ambiance chaleureuse & conviviale, créant un cadre parfait pour un repas agréable. Notre serveuse était très sympathique, & le fait que le chef soit venu nous saluer a ajouté une touche personnelle à cette expérience formidable. Je recommande vivement!

Menu créatif par chef qui bouillonne d'idées! Le service est coloré, les boissons rehaussent l'expérience & sa compagne en salle est efficace, charmante & la synergie du couple est franchement touchante! À suivre
Overall the restaurant was fairly good. However, I won't recommend the 3 Courses tasting menu that was promoted on the social media. We didn't know what was included in the tasting menu, so we had a high expectation for it. We started with the soup which was pretty blend. The garlic leaves took over the flavor of soup. The oyster was good. Love the Yuzu mousse & the chili on top. This one is a great combination. However, one of our oyster was bad. The main course was a chow mein with peanut butter sauce & chili oil. This is a very common house dish in my culture so it was a little bit disappointing to have it as the main. I would say the chili oil was quite authentic. The egg yolk added extra creaminess to the sauce. The final dish was three arancini balls. The flavor was fine with some braised beef cheeks in it. This tasting menu was quite confusing. Per website, the order should be an amuse-bouche, starter & main. Based on the order of the food brought to us, I wasn't sure if the chow-mein or the arancini is the main. I would prefer that they remove one of two dish & include a dessert to it. Also maybe include a big more protein & vegetables as the meal is probably 80% carbs. The cocktails are around $20 per drinks. The atmosphere was nice with the music & the decor. The owner/ chef is very enthusiastic & has nice personalities. The waitress is also very sweet. Overall, I won't recommend the tasting menu we had. Maybe it would be nicer to order a la carte. If you love the open to talk atmosphere & have some drinks. I will recommend this restaurant.
I have dined here three times & have always left happy. The speakeasy resto concept is very cool & chef does a great job being personable & putting out exciting dishes. I especially enjoy the use of fermentation to play with flavors. Can't wait until their next menu!!
Ambiance chaleureuse, service exceptionnel. Le restaurant accepte très peu de clients en même temps afin de pouvoir personnaliser le repas de chacun. L'accord mets - cocktail est sublime.
