Maybe just to summarize, our feeling amongst 4 of us dinning was the food / experience was overall a bit flat . & maybe because it was a Monday night . Subjectively while there was obviously a lot of effort in putting together the menu/ plates , it seemed to lack some burst of flavor or something distinguishing ; & maybe its matter of expectations; objectively , there was long pauses before & between courses , the soup which was interesting , was luke warm , & portions were smallish ; & the wine steward pointed us to very good choice of wine , but left us to pour the rest of bottle ourselves . Our waiter was kind & helpful , & he gladly helped explain the menu & had we felt welcome with no issues with English or our bad French :) ..it certainly could have just been an off night

Amazing food. Amazing ambience. Went for weekday lunch, so I had the plat d'hote.
Service was impeccable.
Quite busy, so highly recommend a reservation. It's more business friendly, but they still try to be accommodating. Obviously French is the main language here, but they will happily serve you in the other official language if you need it.
They are professionals, across the whole team

We did the tasting menu with drink pairings, & it was absolutely amazing. They were accommodating & changed two of the courses for me & the sommelier even chose two new wines to pair with them! Amazing selection of Quebec & French wines. Service was great too, everyone was incredibly friendly. & the food was delicious! I don't know if I can pick a favourite as all the courses were delicious! Will definitely be back!

My date & I visited for the Valentine's Day five-course tasting menu, & unfortunately, the evening fell well below expectations. While each dish was visually refined & thoughtfully plated, the execution & flavor composition were inconsistent &, at times, misguided.
French cuisine is rooted in balance, clarity, & intention-each element on the plate should serve a defined purpose. Instead, several courses felt unfocused, with competing flavors that overwhelmed rather than complemented one another. The risotto was notably undercooked & lacked proper emulsification, resulting in a thin, watery texture rather than the expected creamy cohesion. The duck breast, which should have been rendered crisp on the skin & served at a precise medium-rare, arrived undercooked & texturally unrefined.
The final course-traditionally an opportunity to reset & conclude the meal with elegance-was similarly disappointing. Rather than offering a clean, harmonious finish, the dessert presented an excess of competing flavors that muddled the palate instead of refreshing it. For a prix-fixe Valentine's menu, one expects precision, balance, & memorability; regrettably, this experience delivered none of the above.

Really lovely French restaurant! Showcases classic French dishes prepared with careful attention to flavor & technique. From the appetizers to the mains & desserts, everything is well-executed. The sauces are rich, the proteins are cooked perfectly, & the ingredients taste fresh. The atmosphere is elegant yet relaxed, & the staff are welcoming & knowledgeable. Great place for a date night or a special dinner with friends. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality & ambiance make it worthwhile.

Delicious French fine dining, I enjoyed the Hiramasa sashimi, Duck Confit Cromesquis, Slow Cooked Lamb with Nantes style vegetables, & the Molten Hazelnut & Maple Cake. It was quite the culinary experience I had when tasting these dishes. Service was awesome & the waiter was very attentive.

The cuisine was outstanding. Each dish was beautifully plated & executed with remarkable precision, balancing bold flavors with classic French technique. Every course felt thoughtful & elevated, showcasing both creativity & respect for tradition. The quality of ingredients & attention to detail were evident in every bite.The service was equally impressive: professional, warm, & perfectly paced. The staff demonstrated deep knowledge of the menu & wine pairings while maintaining a relaxed & welcoming atmosphere. You felt cared for without ever feeling rushed or overwhelmed.Le Boulevardier sets a very high standard for fine dining in Montreal. It delivers excellence across food, service, & it is absolutely a destination restaurant. Highly recommended.

This was a restaurant in a hotel. I never think of good restaurants being in a hotel, but Montreal has a number of exceptional ones, this being one of them. French olfood oriented menu with just the right sized serving portion. Very good wine list with a very attentive sommelier. We had a table that overlooked the street & the restaurant was relatively quiet so that you could easily converse across the table.
