The menu takes inspiration from brasseries and café bistros and features fresh, local fare, with an emphasis on seafood. A French-inspired wine list, reinvented retro cocktails, and a good selection of whisk(e)ys and cognacs round out the offering.
Le Boulevardier Restaurant in Montreal draws largely positive impressions for its elegant setting, refined French cooking, and attentive staff. Guests frequently praise the superb service, knowledgeable sommelier, and strong wine and dessert selections, with favorites including scallops, lobster risotto, and a memorable millefeuille. The tasting menu and chef's pairings are often highlighted as highlights, while portions and seasoning vary for some dishes, leading to comments that some plates feel small for the price or could use more depth. The atmosphere is described as sophisticated and romantic, though sometimes noisy or slow during peak times, making it a better pick for special occasions or business dinners. Overall, it is regarded as a high quality, destination dining experience with impressive attention to detail and consistency that encourages return visits, even if a few meals fall short of expectations.
Cant recommend this place enough. We made reservations for a bachelor party for a nice dinner & opted for the wine pairing & fixed menu. It was outstanding & definitely an experience. The service was top notch.
Beautiful restaurant. A hidden gem. From the hostess to the sommelier to the floor manager: Attentive staff, warm & very friendly. As for the food: Outstanding & beautifully presented (oysters on the half shell, mushroom raviolis, sea bass); paired with a sommelier recommended chenin blanc. Will make it round two, next time in Montreal.

Exceptionnel ! Merveilleuse soirée au restaurant Le Boulevardier. Amélie & Nicolas ont partagé avec générosité leur passion pour la gastronomie & nous ont conseillé pour déguster des plats raffinés & cuisinés avec amour avec des ingrédients de première qualité. Notre excellent sommelier a su agrémenter le tout avec des choix de vins surprenants pour notre plus grand plaisir. La côte de boeuf d'une qualité rare & cuite à la perfection & le carré d'agneau sont à recommander. Les desserts légers & subtils finissent en beauté un repas hors du commun. Merci à vous tous pour votre professionnalisme & votre extrême gentillesse. Une adresse incontournable!
I would have given 6 stars if it was an option. This place is INCREDIBLE! I had the pleasure of having Amelie as a server, Nicholas recommended an amazing wine, & Sidney made me the best cosmo I've ever had. Highly recommend :)
Food was absolutely amazing. For starter we had oysters & the lobster french toast - both excellent. For main I had the Beef Tenderloin topped with Foie Gras & it was the best tenderloin I've had anywhere. I think the Foie Gras really just took it to the next level & that's not a typically available steak topping where I'm from. The servers were all friendly & very helpful & we needed some help because we didn't speak much French. Definitely would recommend & I wished we had gone here earlier in our trip so we could go again.
Excellente soirée nous avons été très bien reçu le service du sommelier Jordan était parfait ces suggestions étaient en plein dans nos goûts! La nourriture était excellente le seul point faible je dirais était la quantité du risotto par contre le gout était divin ! Bel endroit belle ambiance excellent service gout dans l'assiette je le recommande fortement

Excellent. Rien à redire, le cadre du restaurant est très beau, le service est impeccable & la cuisine est délicieuse. Nous y sommes allés un midi & c'est un très bon rapport qualité/prix. Je recommande fortement.
What a lovely evening at this delightful restaurant in the Hotel St Germaine in Montreal. Four of us chose different meals from the menu & we were all delighted. Rack of lamb, lobster French toast, mushroom ravioli, lobster risotto...all were uniquely presented & delicious! Excellent service. Outstanding desserts ( one with mushroom powder that was to die for!). This restaurant is underutilized which is a shame. One of the best meals we have had in Montreal. Highly recommend!
Je me rends dans ce restaurant chaque 1er juin afin de célébrer un évènement spécial : quel bonheur à chaque année ! L'équipe est juste parfaite, du service à la cuisine en passant par de magnifiques conseils sur les vins & spiritueux. L'équipe prend le temps de discuter avec vous & contribue de faire de votre repas un moment unique & spécial. Mention spéciale à Jordan pour ses conseils en vin, à Amélie & Nicolas pour leur service parfait ; ils ont également su animer notre soirée festive avec élégance & bonne humeur. Que ce soit pour un évènement, un repas d'affaire ou tout simplement pour découvrir de la bonne gastronomie, je recommande les yeux fermés.
Délicieux brunch & excellent service ! Rémi & Paul ont été aux petits soins avec nous, nous avons passé un très bon moment au restaurant ! Nous recommandons ce lieu :)
It was our first time dining in Le Boulevardier. We were very impressed with the quality of food. It is a place for foodies. The shredded rabbit, scallops & walleye fish were delicious. The service was outstanding. Highly recommend for romantic dinners & celebrations.

We went to Le Boulevardier for a team dinner with a rather large group (~50 people). The food was amazing, everything came out at pretty much the same time, the choices for the different courses were excellent & the service was impeccable. Everyone in our group had a great time & I would highly recommend the place.
The best meal we had in Montreal (& Canada). The bartender created a fine cocktail for the week, which is excellent. Dining, the seafood starter was large & very good, but the main dishes really stepped out. I had the walleye special that is high gastro art. My companion had the more traditional tenderloin with foie gras, which was extremely tender & perfectly cooked. Excellent! The location, building, view & decor are among the best in the McGill/downtown area. Service is excellent, with the Somm offering great french matches to the dishes. Highly recommended!
Went here for a date & the atmosphere & service were amazing. Our server & sommelier were quite helpful in deciding our meals/drinks. The food itself was high quality & flavourful. Definitely recommend 👏
