Review Summary

Overall, reviews of La Sauvagine describe a warm, inviting spot in Old Montreal where the food frequently shines with a range of French and Portuguese influenced dishes, from oysters and escargots to foie gras and game meats like elk, bison and caribou, plus seafood and comforting classics such as onion soup. The wine list is noted as thoughtful and well chosen, and the atmosphere ranges from cozy and intimate to romantic, with attentive staff who explain dishes, accommodate requests, and make diners feel at home. While most comments are highly positive about hospitality and the quality of the meals, a few mentions point to occasional service hiccups or moments of miscommunication. Many guests return to try different items, appreciating consistency and the sense that dining here is an experience rather than a routine, and the overall impression is that La Sauvagine offers a memorable evening with strong, friendly service and robust flavors.

We had a wonderful dinner at La Sauvagine. We started with oysters & then had the Pork Special & Lamb chop, both were excellent. They have a nice wine list, including some nice by the glass selections. The inside was inviting & quieter than other places in the area we had been, which was nice. The staff was attentive & made sure we had a wonderful evening. Thank You!

Premier location. Excellent food. Great wine selection. Atmosphere is great for romantic dinner or family gathering. Several seating areas. Our waiter Anthony was superb. He offered outstanding menu selections & wine pairings. Anthony is a long time local resident who can give you great history on old montreal. He is the archetype classic French waiter. Total professional as is all the staff. They take their food & service very seriously for your benefit.

This particular establishment also has Portuguese selections. The restaurant above is owned by the same person. Two different chef's.

Escargo & wild game bird pate as appetizers.

We ordered the 3 wild game meat entree & the caribou.

I ordered flan for dessert while my wife ordered creme brulee for example.

The food is too die for!

I've dined here 5 times over the last 3 years while on travel.

Best hidden gem of Montreal, in the most precious gem of old Montreal. My husband & I came from New York City to find a restaurant which compares favorably to our favorite NYC restaurants. The place is so beautiful & so very romantic, Cosy & artistic with a great selection of background music. The food is so delicious, The service is impeccable & the staff is warm, welcoming well mannered & professional. Any visitor to beautiful Montreal who misses this exceptional restaurant has missed a marvelous experience.
