Visited in the summer of 2025, had an amazing meal. Even the starter bread & butter was such a good combination. Highlight's from the main included the duck confit pasta, the sauce was rich & lots of depth to the dish. Dessert was a dish that included ice cream & it was flat out best vanilla ice cream ever, so dense & smooth tasting. Overall, highly recommend!
Since Le Carre is attached to a hotel, I expected a corporate style restaurant, but was pleasantly surprised to see they arent afraid to serve good food with an interesting twist.
The calamari & salad were solid starters, & the pea & leek soup was fantastic. The sea bass was quite impressive with a lot of sour notes-almost too much but I appreciate the unique flavor. They nicely split the octopus for us. The streak was tender & I highly recommend the duck pasta.
Desserts were nicely plated & garnished: I wasnt sure what to expect with the brownie but it was rather crispy & elegantly plated. The creme brulee was nice & thin & came out flaming.
Service was good throughout the night, & the interior is small but elegant.

My friend & I reserved for lunch at Le Carré & what a treat it was. Food wise we shared the grilled Halloumi entrée, had different pasta dishes & dessert. Portions were good enough, well presented & simply delicious.
The service was prompt, attentive & polite. We truly discovered a little gem.
This place really surprised us. The menu seemed very mundane but what you were given was high quality ingredients cooked very well.
Started with the brussel sprouts & calamari. The brussel sprouts were cooked to perfection with poached pears with the natural flavor coming out in each bite. The calamari was some of the most crispy bites we've ever had.
Our mains included seafood risotto, lamb shoulder, hanger steak & cod fish & chips. Lamb shoulder hands down the best of the bunch. Tender moist & delicious flavor. Seafood risotto was full of textures & flavor. Fish & chips had a wonderful slaw topped with caviar. Hanger steak was cooked to perfection medium rare with a wonderful char. Flavors were all seasoned & exquisite without being over powered.
Dessert included a lemon pie & cream brûlée. Lemon pie was very different a worth a try & the crème brûlée was probably the most plain but presentation was gorgeous.
We recommend reservations as seats were limited & we lucked out getting a seat. Service was spot on & attentive. Definitely recommend this place.
The food was fantastic, we were blown away by every dish. The servers were very kind & helpful. We both got appetizers, mains & dessert, & I got a glass of wine. All of that for under $200 (before tip). Will be coming here again, we had a great anniversary date! Perfect if you want to eat somewhere fancy, & want to get good food that isn't overpriced.
Service here was absolutely wonderful. My cocktail was great too. Several servers came by to ask if we needed anything & we were very well taken care of.
My issue was with the food.
I ordered'crab ravioli with candied fennel'
My dish did not contain fennel. It contained leeks- which taste nothing like fennel.
Not only was it the incorrect item- they were cut into crude stalk- fibrous hard & inedible.
If, as a restaurant; you run out of a key ingredient that is listed as an ingredient on your menu, it's your responsibility to let the customer know. I might love fennel & dislike leeks. There were more stalks of leeks in my plate than there were ravioli.
The ravioli were not filled with much crab.
The desserts were lovely- & again; the staff was great.
The soft dinner rolls were delicious with the spicy butter.
Excellent restaurant ! Les assiettes sont super travaillées & la nourriture est très bonne, avec des associations qui sortent de l'ordinaire comme la poire & le choux de Bruxelles, je recommande le fish & chips & de prendre des entrées à partager & ne passez pas à côté de leur tarte au sucre en dessert qui est succulente.

Went for dinner with my mom & we ordered the lamb & duck confit pasta per recommendation. The duck confit pasta was heavenly & very filling! The lamb was super tender & I loved the baba ganoush but I felt the sauces were a bit too sweet so the plate lacked balance. The veggies were glazed too so there were too many sweet things. Otherwise, the lamb itself was so good. Their salad is also amazing, I recommend it. My mom & I did not get drinks, shared a salad & shared dessert, so it came to only $60 per person & we were very full & satisfied. We will be back to try other dishes!!
I was in town for a conference & chose Le Carré for a nice dinner because it was nearby.
I walked in the door & James sat me at the bar & proceeded to take the best care of me for the rest of the evening.
I was torn between 3 mains that all looked good, & James talked me into ordering the lamb shoulder. He said it was the best dish they served, & still it exceeded my expectations. I asked him for a wine to go with it, & he recommended a full bodied red that paired very well.
For dessert he recommended the crispy maple squares, despite the fact I was considering 3 other options. At this point I felt I had no choice but to listen to James, & again he did not disappoint.
This was easily the nicest meal I have had in years. Thank you very much James & the staff behind the scenes at Le Carré. I wish I lived closer so that I could visit again soon.
Très bon restaurant ! Si vous aimez bien manger c est le bon endroit ! Tout était bon de l entrée jusqu'à au dessert ! Mention spéciale aux desserts on s est régale ! Personnel très sympa !
Un très bon accueil & un service irréprochable. Le repas était délicieux. Seul bémol, musique un peu trop forte Nous avons pris les pâtes au canard & le tartare de saumon. Pour le dessert nous avons pris la crème brûlée & le brownie. Le tout accompagné de vin.
Went to dine at this restaurant tonight which is located in our hotel. The staff were amazing & kept filing our drinks, even when it was water. The food, wow....it was delicious! From the octopus, to the scallops, to the meats & desserts, we just couldn't stop eating. The ambiance was warm & welcoming. The went the extra mile to make the kids & adults to feel special. Can't wait to return for some more!!! Shawn & Electra & Kids

Le Carré is a fine place to get a nice dinner if you're around. Service in English was great, & all around I felt very attended to. Staff were professional & knew what they were talking about. The food was good, though some plates were a little dated. I think the chef needs to relax on the microgreens on the next menu overhaul, they were on every dish we had (even the lemon pie dessert!). We ordered the charred broccoli as an appetizer, which was very tasty, though the broccoli could use a little time in a steamer perhaps as they were a touch hard. Flavours on the plate were very good, well thought out. Probably a 3.5/5 (mainly due to the micros, & only getting 2 pieces of grilled peach [one of which still had a piece of pit on!]) I had the grilled octopus as my main, & it was wonderful. The octopus literally melted in my mouth. The corn salad was very good as well, but I feel the chorizo could have been incorporated into the dish better, it provided & excellent salty/spicy component to the dish, but the grilled bias cut seems a little out of place considering the general „fanciness" of the place. 4.5/5 My wife got the gnocchi (she's vegetarian & it's the only vegetarian main on the menu, definitely room for improvement there), & I was genuinely surprised at the quality. Very very flavourful. Once again the plating could use some touching up, but when the food tastes that good, it doesn't really matter. 5/5 Finally, we shared a piece of lemon „pie". This was more of a deconstructed tart than a pie, & probably the biggest miss of the dinner. Flavour-wise was very good. The curd was luxuriously smooth, & the „exotic salsa" (a mélange of brunoise mango & other yellow fruit that I couldn't place) was really tasty. Unfortunately the base crust of the „pie" wasn't very good. The menu listed it as „short bread" & while technically true, turned out as more resembling the dry cookie part of a Jaffa cake than anything I would consider a „short bread" in the context of a lemon tart/pie. Also, just a massive bunch of undressed microgreens on the plate. What purpose did they serve? I ate them, & can tell you they served 0 purpose. Had it been a sprig of mint it would still be a dated plate, but at least the mint tastes like stuff. 2.5/5 (for $15, I was unimpressed) Overall, good! Though a bit pricey. With 2 drinks, our total was $160, but the service did make up for it a bit. Be warned! This restaurant is attached to a hotel, so if you're looking for a nice, quiet, adults-only dinner, maybe look elsewhere
Expérience moyen-correcte. Cocktail : ok Entrée : calmars, quelconque, je n'ai pas aimé. Plat : tartare de thon était bon, tartare de saumon aussi, les frites moyennes ; Dessert : crème brûlée : excellente, c'etait le point fort du chef, je me suis régalé avec ma conjointe. Le service : courtois & sympathique. L'ambiance feutrée est sympa, un peu bruyante. Un point d'incompréhension : vendez-vous le pain/beurre ou vous l'offrez au nombre de clients par table ou par ce qu'il prend? Car je pensais en avoir & finalement non. Ça reste très cher au global.
Very cozy & contemporary ambiance, making perfect for a date or happy hour spot. The staff is super kind & accommodating. The food is also out of this world, everything from the bread & butter down to the dessert. Must try!
De passage à Montréal, je suis allé au Le Carré à l'invitation d'une amie dans savoir que je m'embarquais dans une véritable expérience culinaire. Tout y était exquis à commencer par l'entrée d'Halloumi & les calmars grillés. Le burger de Wagyu était parfaitement sublimé par la moutarde fumée. Le tartare de thon était relevé à souhait & que dire de la croustille frite qui accompagnait le tout. La sauce ponzu mariait parfaitement le tout. Je n'ai malheureusement pas eu le temps de manger un dessert, mais ceux que j'ai eu l'occasion de voir paraissaient délicieux! Le mojito Le Carré était aussi surprenant qu'exceptionnel! À essayer!
Bravo excellent restaurant, service impeccable & nourriture parfaite Petit restaurant, c'est exactement ce que j'aime, pas bruyant & très bon plats & le dessert ..... 😋
