Review Summary

Le Bon Vieux Temps comes through in these reviews as a cozy, stylish spot with a Great Gatsby vibe where inventive cocktails and fresh seafood shine, from oysters to aguachile, with tapas that pair beautifully with the drinks; the decor is stunning, the ambiance intimate yet lively, and the service warm and attentive, making prices feel reasonable for the quality. Frequently described as a hidden gem, it invites return visits for evenings with shows or simply to soak in the welcoming atmosphere, with many praising bold drinks like the Smoke Manhattan and other creative cocktails alongside delicious food, while a few note desserts not quite matching the rest but not enough to dim the overall standout experience.

Excellente expérience :
- décor & ameublements époustouflants
- musique de qualité
- cocktails créatifs & savoureux préparés par une barmaid passionnee
- huitres, thon & aguachile délicieux, la aussi la créativité est présente
- service chaleureux & agréable

Seul bémol, les desserts qui ne sont définitivement pas à la hauteur du reste. Mais cela ne doit pas vous empêcher de découvrir ce beau secret caché de la rue Saint Denis.

The restaurant has a Great Gatsby feel! Beautiful decor. The food is delicious, but I would order more than one option because the portions are not huge. I usually hate when the portions are too much, but I still should have ordered something else. Anna, our server, was very pleasant & the owners were very welcoming! Would definitely go back again, as they also have shows in the evening.

Jack's Lune de Miel was a great cocktail. Excellent happy hour specials on drinks & oysters. Pleasant service. Gorgeous decor. I wish they would put more effort into promoting themselves as I only know about it because I walked by it.

I love the nostalgic décor, it really transports you back to the 1930s. It feels like you're in Chicago or New York, & you half-expect the mafia to walk in at any moment 😊😉. The Rockefeller & Tempura oysters are fantastic. The drinks are also amazing & delicious. The service is friendly.

Wonderful experience. The service was above & beyond. Semi dark, sexy speakeasy vibe with tasteful decor. Would be a great first date spot, or with friends. The cocktails were excellent & food small portions but tasty.

We enjoyed the atmosphere & overall decor with beautiful gothic inspired sofa (which we loooove 🖤), real oil lamps & quirky portraits of animals wearing a ruff. The menu was equally lovely. Oysters prepared 5 different ways, Tuna Tataki & much more that we'll have to return to try as well as those delicious cocktails.
