Review Summary

La Raclette is widely recognized as a top destination for authentic Swiss-style dining, frequently praised for its delicious fondue, high-quality cheese, and generous portions of sides like potatoes and vegetables. Guests consistently highlight the warm, inviting atmosphere and the attentive, friendly nature of the staff, noting that the restaurant provides a unique and comforting experience that feels like a trip to Europe. While the majority of visitors leave highly satisfied with the flavors and the concept of bringing their own wine, some feedback indicates that the pricing can feel high for the simplicity of certain dishes or that specific menu options occasionally lack variety. Overall, the establishment remains a popular choice for those seeking a convivial meal, with many patrons eager to return for the consistent service and specialty culinary offerings.

Tucked away on a residential street is a most charming & wonderful restaurant! We made a last minute reservation to La Raclette to finally try raclette & after our experience here, were so happy we did. We were warmly greeted by our host, & seated by a window, which we had requested. Our waiter was extremely welcoming & explained how the menu worked. After receiving some delicious French bread & a jar of small cornichon pickles, we ordered the raclette for two, & a kid's fondue meal for our child, who was very excited to have gazpacho with it as well.
The German Beer soup I got as an appetizer was delicious & a heartier version of French Onion soup.
My husband had the scallop app, which was a thinly sliced raw carpaccio, very fresh & mild tasting.
For the main course, we were presented with a burner box & small square tray for melting the cheese. On top of the box were two small square dishes containing quartered boiled potatoes in one dish & sautéed mushrooms, red peppers & asparagus pieces, as well as a large plate of the cheese slices, thinly sliced ham, salami, dried prosciutto & a serving of a lovely green salad with thinly sliced beets on it.
My son received a smaller version of their fondue & it was perfect for him (as well as us to sample). He too received a dish with salad, some ham & veggies to dip & a basket of bread pieces as well.
We had so much fun melting our cheese & figuring out different combinations to eat our melted cheese with, & both meals were outstanding. Since we brought our own wine as well, it was even more enjoyable. The service was also excellent & attentive, with our water cups being refilled quickly (such rich food makes one thirsty, after all!).
Finally for dessert I ordered the Chocolate Dome which was presented with flair & melted for us by our waiter with warm butterscotch. Inside the dome was ice cream, small cubes of pound cake & fresh berries on the perimeter. It was like a chocolate fondue without the pot!
This had to be the best dining experience we have had in Montreal so far & beyond the excellent food, we had such a wonderful experience visiting this outstanding place! If you are deciding whether or not to visit, seriously, go now, you won't be disappointed!

Fantastic. It was the first time we had tried Euro-syle fondue & the host couldn't have been nicer in taking the time to explain. Everything was fresh & delicious. Lucy
