My wife & I walked in…she with a gluten sensitivity & me with a lactose problem
We showed up in jeans, flips & tee shirt. Faizal eyed us & when I asked if they were
Open…grinned & said'only for ice people.' we laughed, sat down & started down a food & wine journey we could not forget
Patê, made in house,
Salmon in white sauce custom for my wife with no gluten,
An amazing veal dish with custom wine sauce for me. We had the place almost to ourselves & felt we're were invited to a home for amazing hospitality.
A new Montreal favourite for me…& Faizal has always promised us a seat…View more
This is a smaller family owned French restaurant right downtown. We first saw this place walking home from another dinner & the owner was out front & chatted with us & told us he had been in business for 49 years. So we thought that we would give it a try during our stay. The owner himself & one other person were serving. We were first served individual rolls & bruschetta. Both were delicious. Amongst the five of us, our appetizers included the escargot in puff pastry, which was an amazingly delicious rich appetizer. I would've been satisfied to stop there. I did not. A couple of people had the French onion soup, which was apparently rich & very delicious. Our Manes included my short ribs, which were served with a couple of spears of perfectly cooked asparagus & piped mashed potatoes. Other diners had Rack of Lamb Provençale, fillet mignon, fillet mignon with pepper sauce,
& Entrecôte sauce Bordelaise. They were all excellent. For dessert, the five of us shared two desserts… One was their chocolate crème brûlée… It was just OK. & a small apple dessert with some vanilla ice cream. That was good. Their wine list was quite extensive & expensive lol. The chef did come out at the end of the evening when we were leaving & asked us how we enjoyed our meals. I would highly recommend this restaurant.View more
Excellent! My son & I came here for the first time tonight & we will surely be back again. The food was delicious & the service was great. The waiters were attentive & the owner, Kazim, was charming & personable. We shared the escargot dish & they so kindly split it into two dishes for us. Their unique preparation with the puff pastry is a must try. The French onion soup was delicious. The salade L'autre saison was crisp & fresh & the duck confit was so tender. The ambiance & decor was lovely. We didn't have time for dessert this evening, but we will be back another time to try! Thank you for a lovely experience!
Update - We came back for another visit. I recommend the scallops. The sauce was tasty & scallops were cooked perfectly. This time we did have dessert. The tarte tatin (French take on apple pie), was delicious. The ice cream with berries was abundant with fresh berries. Kazim was a charming host as always. Thank you!View more
My wife & I & another couple had dinner here while visiting Montreal last week (we are from Ontario & they are from England). We all agreed we had one of the best French dining experiences we have had in a very long time. The owner was funny, charming & engaging, while the décor was both cozy & classy, but not pretentious. Service was prompt & attentive. Particular standouts from the menu were the French onion soup & the duck confit. Five stars all around. Highly recommended.View more
A hidden gem! The service is impeccable & the food perfect. A lovely, quiet elegance with attentive but not intrusive service. Highly recommend for a wonderful experience!View more
The food was excellent.... The scallop dish & lamb shank were perfectly executed & every accompanying component to each dish treated with respect & presented beautifully... The wine list was extensive & impressive... An old school classic French dining experience in a comfortable classy atmosphere. Attentive service, & in addition I was even fortunate enough to receive a valuable lesson on napkin placement etiquette. If I had but one concern it would be that the crème brûlée was not properly caramelized, but it was a minor concern in the scope of the overall dining experience.View more
L'Autre Saison is a place with the decor that reminds me of meals & restaurants in Montmartre, Paris. This place serves excellent dishes which I would definitely rate it as a 5-stars establishment had there been good services. Almost as soon as we walked into the restaurant, the owner's attitude was borderline racially prejudiced against Asians. From the shaking of his head to remarks like "the days of free bread are long gone" or "Is that all you ordered?", he definitely treated us very differently than to the 3 white customers who sat at the table next to ours. Those customers ordered less than we did but were treated with courtesy & friendliness. The owner also came by several times to have small talks with them while totally ignoring us. Service here is a 0 since there is no negative 5 for rating. Food-wise, this place is easily a 4.5 stars. 1. The snails were served in vol-au-vent style with a delicious garlicky creamy sauce. Since it was not served with bread, we had to order a basket of 6 excellent bread rolls at $10.50. 2. The creamy foie gras was excellent & paired real well with the house pinot noir one of us ordered. No, the owner did not suggest anything. 3. The onion soup was good but had too much onions & not enough soup. 4. The duck confit dish is possibly one of the best I've eaten. It rivals with good French restaurants in major cities such as Paris & Washington, D.C.. 5. The tarte tatin served à la mode was delicious. Each bite of apple reminds me of a great bistro in Montmartre. This restaurant offers a great dining experience for non-Asians who would be treated with courtesy & great service. Based on our own experience, I cannot & will not recommend this racially prejudiced restaurant to non whites. In short, there are other French restaurants in Montreal that offers the same level of food quality with much better service.View more
What an amazing experience. Service ! Food ! Wonderful people ! What more can you ask for !!View more
I brought my daughter & wife here for dinner & it was a delightful experience. The scenery is very worldly & interesting. The staff was great to talk to. The beef is the best I've ever tasted & this is coming from someone who has tried $1000 kobe beef in Japan! The owner is also a very interesting & kind person. Highly recommended!View more
This place is fantastic! Service was excellent, & every dish was spot on. We shared two orders the escargot & they split it up individually for us. Duck, lamb shank, shrimp & beef rib, all super yummy. Will definitely return next time in Montreal.View more
Would have loved to have gone here while we were in town, but with no phone number on the website we wandered over only to find a sign taped to the door that they were closed for a month. It would have been great if the website could have put a note about that up on their website. Otherwise, we're excited to visit again in the future.View more
Amazing food! Owner is really nice Try the steak !!View more
We had 2 wonderful dinners here while in Montreal. The service was excellent & all of our food was delicious. The owner treats everyone like family. I highly recommend this restaurant.View more
Not only does the delicious meal make you feel amazing, but the sincere conversation with Mr. Kazim enhances the experience even further. I haven't had such a delicious French Onion soup even in Paris. If you truly want to taste exquisite meals in a great atmosphere, where you & your meal are genuinely cared for, & you are a nice person (this is a requirement to get in :) ), you must visit this place. Thank you for such a great experience ❤️View more
Brought my better half there to celebrate a couple months ago & forgot to leave a review 🍾 Our bar seats were nicely set-up with linens & proper utensils. We were both impressed with every dish. The live piano was a fun atmosphere. The fresh flower bouquets were impressive. Got to meet the chef & also the owner, & since we sat at the bar, I had a drink with the devil 😈 I don't think this is a good place for snobby people or cheap people or abusive people with mental problems, they'll probably refuse to serve you (hence the 1 star reviews). If you're a normal person who enjoys life & have money for a 4 course meal with high-end wine, this place is totally awesome.View more

This is our first time visiting, & I can confidently say it's beyond a 5-star experience. Everything was perfect - the food, hospitality, & the "old man" owner is incredibly kind & generous. I'll definitely be coming back.View more
Stumbled upon this restaurant on a walk from our hotel. The proprietor, Kazim was an absolute delight. He made us feel like we were dining in his home. The escargot in a garlicky, mushroom cream sauce was delicious. The rack of lamb was cooked perfectly with an herb crust.View more
