Amazing service & food, beautiful setting, extensive & solid wine list. The very attentive personnel makes the experience a delight, & the piano nights ( Friday & Saturday) really sets the tone. PS: the Digby sourced scallops are a bliss, cooked to perfection.

The interior design was elegant & exquisite, creating a truly beautiful & sophisticated atmosphere. The live piano music made the whole dining experience feel even more special & memorable. The service was amazing - attentive, professional, & warm from beginning to end. The seafood was absolutely delicious, the wine selection was excellent, & the dessert was the perfect ending to a wonderful evening. One of the best dining experiences in Montreal.

L'Autre Saison - 2137 Crescent Street, Montreal

We had a truly memorable dinner at L'Autre Saison-easily one of the best meals we've had in Montreal in quite some time. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance: warm & elegant, yet relaxed & unpretentious, making it ideal for a special night out without feeling overly formal.

I ordered the lamb shank, which was incredibly tender & bursting with flavor, while my wife enjoyed the black cod, one of the evening's specials-both dishes were outstanding. Portions were generous, & every plate was beautifully presented.

The menu offers a wide variety of appealing options, & our server, Troy (the owner's son), elevated the experience with his friendly, attentive service & excellent recommendations.

Dessert was a standout & a perfect sweet finish to the meal.

The wine list is thoughtfully curated with plenty of choices to cater to one's pallet & pocketbook. There's a handsome bar tucked at the rear of the dining room, offering a more casual way to enjoy the same refined cuisine & ambiance.

Prices are well aligned with the quality of food & service.

If you're a fan of French cuisine-or simply looking for a hidden gem in Montreal-L'Autre Saison is absolutely worth a visit.

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!

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.

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.
