Excellent restaurant! Food & service were top notch! I enjoyed the burger : multiple layers of flavours & perfect size! The appetizers were tasty! I recommend the gnocchi as well!

Very tasty food & good decent portions. Drinks were really good too. Although overall I'd say everything was just a tiny bit pricey from my perspective. Overall ambiance was very nice as well & the Staff that night (3 gentlemen & a lady) really does a very good job of paying attention to you & beind very professional while remaining pleasant & friendly! Special mention to Maya who served us. I would say it's almost the perfect balance of quality for the price. I really hope they don't get greedy on pricing or shrinkflation. I really recommend Le Carré for any food aficionado out there.
I had the most incredible dining experience at Le Carré restaurant! From the moment I called to make the group reservation to the minute we walked in... the atmosphere was warm, inviting, & beautifully decorated. The staff were attentive, friendly, & made sure that every detail was perfect throughout our meal. Special thanks to Alex & Illois for being so kind & helpful - your service truly elevated our evening & made the birthday surprise dinner an amazing experience for our team. The food was absolutely amazing, each dish crafted with care & bursting with flavor. We could tell that a lot of thought went into both the ingredients & presentation. My personal favorite was the Saffron Risotto & Seared scallops, but everything we tried was veryyy delicious. A heartfelt thank you to Chef & the kitchen team for making such a memorable meal. We will definitely be back & recommend Le Carré restaurant to anyone looking for a top-tier dining experience in Montreal!
Plats raffinés sur la base de produits frais, mis en valeur par une présentation raffinée. Potage du jour à recommander. Carte raisonnable. Excellent service, sans ostentation. Ambiance un peu trop fonctionnelle mais calme.
I recently dined at Le Carre & had a delightful experience. The quality of the food was exceptional, with each dish bursting with flavor & prepared to perfection. The presentation was equally impressive, showcasing a true culinary artistry that made each plate a feast for the eyes as well as the palate. However, I did find the portion sizes to be on the smaller side. While the taste & presentation were top-notch, the quantity left me wanting a bit more. Despite this, the overall dining experience was very enjoyable, & I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a high-quality meal with beautiful presentation.
One of kind... Food was mind blowing & is there service. All dishes we ordered was good... but KAMOURASKA SPRING LAMB VARIATION & FRIED CAULIFLOWER was exceptional for sure. Though it was a walk in to this restaurant, they treated us like they know us for ages. Highly recommend to try if you are near Philips square & look for nice place to eat.

J'ai adoré !!! Belle découverte à Montréal pour un souper de filles. L'ambiance tamisée très agréable, le service incroyable, attentionné & discret. Des plats esthétiques & excellents. Bref, une adresse que je recommande vivement. Rapport Qualité/Prix, ça vaut la peine.
Service was excellent. The concept & presentation of dishes is outstanding. The taste & execution not so great. Our appetizer of burrata & tomato salad was delicious. The main dish was stuffed chicken & unfortunately, it was extremely dry, overcooked & with a high acidity content which made the plate difficult to eat. I don't recommend this restaurant.
Such a hidden jam with amazing food & great service. We had a beef carpaccio & shrimp form starters. The carpaccio was amazing & I like it slightly better than shrimp. For the mains we followed our waiter recommendation & went with swordfish tataki & duck pasta. Both dishes were amazing. We were not able to decide the winner, so I would recommend take both.

Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. The marinated octopus with the soup starter was truly delicious, far beyond my expectations. The presentation of the dishes is very meticulous, with every detail carefully considered. The service is also commendable, with attentive & friendly staff. Overall, it's a place I recommend.
Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. The grilled tuna was exceptional, & my husband loved his steak. Cozy, chic spot; perfect for date night. Make reservations!
Nous avons eu une incroyable expérience dans ce restaurant. Notre serveur, Jean-François, a su nous offrir des suggestions qui dépassaient nos attentes! C'était un endroit parfait pour fêter les 4 ans avec ma copine. Je recommande fortement!
Souper & spectacle à la place des arts en marche rapide 10 min du resto.Tres belle découverte ce restaurant qui a su s,adapter à notre demande de repas végane & végétarien.Mention pour le risotto,la salade de tomates, les pâtes originales.Je recommande le menu dégustation.Le chef nous laisse découvrir sa créativité dans l'assiette & c'est beau à voir! Essayez le vin blanc trebbiano d'abruzzo fronteamonte exquis ! Le service est sans prétention & vraiment aimable.J'ai pu observer beaucoup d'entraide entre les serveurs.

The most wonderful meal! Popped in without a reservation ( highly recommend making one) but luckily they accommodated us at the bar where Jean Francois ( Jeff) took good care of us & we watched the chef & kitchen create mouth watering meals, exquisitely presented. The hanger steak was like butter & my muddled raspberry mojito refreshing. Chef even gave us the salad dressing recipe - thank you 💗. Can't wait to return.
A great restaurant! The service was extraordinary & the staff very kind. We spent a lovely evening, enjoying our drinks & food! Would definitely recommend!
Delicious food served in a cozy & chic atmosphere. The service was impeccable, fast & professional. My partner loved his cocktail. Definitely recommend the place ! We had wagyu carpaccio & cauliflower for starters, duck & swordfish for main, & the crème brûlée was surprisingly tasty.
Magnifique soirée en famille ! Cuisine copieuse, inventive & raffinée. Éloi, notre serveur, était de bons conseils, disponible & fort sympathique tout comme le reste de l'équipe ! Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir & nous vous recommandons ce restaurant !
