Since 1999, the restaurant LA PRUNELLE is a bring your wine that imposes itself on the popular Duluth in the heart of Plateau Mont-Royal. The chef conveys her passion in each of her dishes, working with products of Quebec dotted with Mediterranean accents. Respecting both the producers of the province and seasonal changes, the menu leads us into an adventure filled with happy detours. One feels immediately at home in this lively and friendly restaurant, overseen by Annie the co-owner and her team. The place is a beautiful and charming space, with large windows that open completely in the summer. One thing is certain, LA PRUNELLE is a very good value for money and is surely one of the finest dining experiences on the Plateau Mont-Royal.
La Prunelle draws praise for refined French dining in a warm, intimate setting with attentive service and a BYOW policy that many guests appreciate. Reviews note delicious dishes such as beef tartare, magret de canard, ris de veau, octopus, and a dessert lineup that impresses, along with a chic yet casual ambiance and a lively street view from the window. While the experience is sometimes described as excellent value for money thanks to BYOW, some criticisms include very small portions, occasional slow service when crowded, and a sometimes noisy or crowded room. Overall, the restaurant is frequently described as a neighborhood gem, perfect for special occasions or relaxed evenings, and many guests say they will return.
Loved your restaurant & the waitress was very charming. Like how you serve the food in reasonably sized portions & you attention to detail. The octopus & the duck were amazing.
I was impressed with the service: I mentioned an unusual dietary restriction when asking about the mains, & before the dessert the waitress came by to explain which ones I would be able to eat, which I thought was very considerate of her. Food was very tasty but with smaller portions, you should get a starter along with the main.

Delicious food! You can bring your own alcohol if each person purchases 1 main or 2 entrée. Grilled bread from Boulangerie Le Toledo, oysters were great & the flavors were strong, interesting & tasty!
One of our favourite spots in the city! We've returned many times & it never disappoints. The atmosphere is chic yet welcoming, with a gorgeous view of the lively street through the large windowfront - such a unique setting.
It's a BYOW French restaurant, which we love, & the food is always excellent. On our last visit, I had the salmon tartare with fries & salad - beautifully plated & delicious - & my boyfriend really enjoyed his classic steak frites. The menu has something for everyone, & the cooking is consistently top-notch.
The service is always professional & attentive without being overbearing. It's clear this place has been around for years for a reason - quality across the board. Highly recommend for a date night or a special meal with friends.
Mon fils demeure au coin Duluth & Hôtel-de-Ville, on va régulièrement manger autour de chez lui. Ce soir nous avons essayé La Prunelle & l'expérience gastronomique était à la hauteur. Fameux petit restaurant français que je recommande sans réserve. Merci pour cette gentille soirée sans faute!!!
