Review Summary

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.

Des bons produits, utilisés à bon escient dans des plats excellents ! C'est une expérience à renouveler ! Petit bémol pour le service qui, bien que rapide, est peu chaleureux.

Je recommande fortement ce restaurant, Tataki d'agneau délicieux, duo de porc excellent & pour finir la tarte au chocolat sublime. Les portions sont un peu petites & le restaurant est très bruyant.

Service gentil & souriant, très bons plats recherchés, mais on aurait aime que le serveur nous explique les plats un peu mieux. Très belle expérience en tout!

C'était ma deuxième visite à ce bon resto. L'ambiance, le service, la bouffe; une excellente expérience. Tu peux apportez ton prope vin. Très accueillant. J'ai hâte d'y aller déguster des huîtres dans l'été!

Service expéditif & sans courtoisie. Plats garrochés sur la table. Ambiance minable & très très bruyante.
Je ne peux recommander ce resto.

Food was incredible: service was ridiculously slow! We arrived at 7pm & left at 11pm for a 3-course meal. Both our main & dessert were forgotten... we had to remind them to bring our dishes & they made us wait even longer afterwards. Waiter never bothered to apologize! Thankfully we had fun & did not complain too much about it...

Ambiance calme & apaisante. Petit endroit mais tout de même chaleureux. Nous avons essayé dans le cadre de MTl à table: menu à 41$ par personne. Entrée de rillette de saumon & entrée de tataki d'agneau. Très bon pour les deux. repas de Morue & Duo de porc. La morue était le meilleur plat de la soirée avec chips de topinambour & mais. Le porc était un peu sec pour le filet mais le flanc délicieux avec la purée. Les desserts étaient plus que copieux, tarte au chocolat noir & le cake de courge & crème. vraiment bons. Service amical & temps d'attente raisonnable. Je recommande.

Excellent food. The atmosphere is casual & chic at the same time & that is what we love about the restaurant.
We went there with work colleagues from our division in France. Everyone enjoyed their meal & had a good time.
The waiter was nice & cared about us.
The only negative comment I can make regards the squid entrée. The portion was very small. The plate was almost empty. I think they should garnish the plate with some kind of salade just to make the plate look less empty. I felt bad for my colleagues who had ordered that entrée. However, they did mention that it tasted great!
Apart from that, everything was great. Our French colleagues adored the bring your own wine concept, it was their first time in a BYOW & they loved it.

Thank you for the lovely evening!

Nous avons pris le menu dégustation, tout était délicieux. La pieuvre grillée est excellente. La cuisson du cerf aux girolles était parfaite: grillé mais fondant, la viande très tendre. Le gateau à la citrouille était très bon aussi, léger & moelleux. Service sympathique & lieu agréable pour un souper en amoureux.
Nous reviendrons !

We enjoyed our visit to La Prunelle very much. It was fun dining in a French bistro in the heart of Montreal. Our 3 course meals were delicious & are a memorable part of our visit to the city. Our 2 teenage sons tried foods that they were not familiar with & had a great experience. I wish we lived closer so that we could visit again.
