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.
We enjoyed our first visit to the Boulevard a 100%.
Starting with comfortable sitting, lovely furniture & overall design, friendly & efficient service, to delicious items on menu. We had one minor disappointment which was quickly forgotten ;) (we could not enjoy the wished for bavette because our visit happened on Saturday evening, & so they offer a different menu from weekdays), but the sauté de champignons was just fabulous, as well as the asparagus salad ( quite skilled way of presenting the asparagus). Wine suggestions were up to it all.
Pleasant atmosphere, nice street views, our dinner was disappointing. We both ordered the fillet de boeuf; large portions of meat but lacking in taste. My partner did not appreciate the amount of fat/sinew, mine was leaner, but sadly both were quite bland. The beef would have benefited from additional spicing. Our desserts were most enjoyable.
This was the best food I have ever had! The venue is beautiful with an open concept kitchen & big windows. The service was perfect & we felt very welcome. But best of all was the food, me & my girlfriend can't get over how spectacular it was to eat our meals. We shared the 12 clams & bubbles for an appetizer & it was perfect. Best of all is it all comes at a reasonable price.

Atmosphère business conviviale. Service très efficace. Plats sur la coche avec un beau soucis de présentation. Parfait pour discuter sans que ce soit cacophonique.
Benoit, the food & beverage manager was very helpful with the planning of this meal for a large group of 18 all from out of town. We were in town from Chicago & this was a great venue & an excellent meal to celebrate my event. The staff were all very friendly & the food was great. Le Boulevardier made our visit very memorable.
