Les avis sur Le Chien Fumant soulignent une expérience gastronomique remarquable autour d'un menu dégustation souvent salué pour sa créativité et sa précision, avec des plats élaborés à partir de produits d'une excellente qualité et des accords mets et vins soignés. Le service est fréquemment décrit comme impeccable, attentif et chaleureux, et l'ambiance intime et conviviale du lieu est appréciée, même si la petite taille de l'établissement incite à réserver. La passion et le professionnalisme de l'équipe transparaissent dans chaque assiette et la carte, qui change régulièrement, assure une expérience renouvelée d'une visite à l'autre. Certaines observations évoquent toutefois des portions généreuses à revoir et des critiques sur le rapport qualité-prix, ainsi que l'absence de choix autre que le menu dégustation et l'absence systématique de desserts ou boissons incluses. Malgré ces nuances, Le Chien Fumant est souvent présenté comme une adresse incontournable pour les amateurs de gastronomie, un petit bijou du quartier dont l'accent est mis sur la technique, l'esthétique des plats, et un service qui rend l'expérience mémorable.
Average food for way above average prices. Good for you if some people are ready to spend 300$ more on a dessert just because you added gold to it. I guess the target was people that don't care about money & think "luxury food" has no price the same way they buy 10$ handbags for 2000$ because they have a logo they know.
Who decided that the duck magret served with actual potatoes should cost 25$ more than the hanger steak? I doubt it cost more than 1$ more in the plate. Either this or the waiter made a terrible job forgetting to explain to us that this duck was raised & massaged by monks in which case the waiters failed to explain us.
Those prices might be acceptable if the food felt really creative & unique but it really felt like steakhouse food. Decent meat, decent sauce, decent sides, nothing memorable.
Superbe restaurant. À ne pas manquer lors de votre visite à Montréal. Superbe cuisine & super personnel. J’en garderai un souvenir impérissable. Parole de Toto.

J'adore votre resto mais c'est maintenant hors de prix, un resto réservé à la classe des super riches...& la musique est un peu trop forte. Sinon j'aurais donné 5 étoiles partout.
This is THE best restaurant in town. I have probably been there about 50 times since it has opened if I recall about 12 years ago. It has never disappointed & it has just gotten better, even if that seemed impossible at times, it is that good. The Chef is an absolute raw talent, & is nothing less than an artist, creating dishes with a fusion of flavors, leaving you speechless at every bite. Execution is as perfect as the dishes are original. Having gone there many times over the years, I have tasted almost everything, but they still surprise me with new creations each time. One of their classics is the Korean tartare, which I can easily say is the best tartare I ever had. Their tasting menu is absolutely insane, & you can trust the Chef to give you a nice variety of dishes & flavors that will make it a night to remember. But what makes it really an exceptional experience all around, is the combination of a talented & creative Chef in Maksim Morin, along with a beautiful location, a warm ambiance playing classic hip-hop from the 90s, & last but not least, one of the best waiters I have ever had in Ben. This man knows how to take care of his guests, treat them like royalty, in a simple, yet friendly & elegant way. This place feels like home, & the only downside is not yet knowing when will be the next time I will visit them.
Sincerely, you biggest fan...

Dans mon Top 5 à Montréal. J ai pris deux petites entrées & l onglet de boeuf délicieux & son huitre. Le cocktail québécois à l amarmelade délicieux. J ai apprécié l ambiance tamisée & les recommandations du chef.

Came here for my birthday as I was told by several people how amazing the restaurant is. & let me tell you.... It did not disappoint. I had originally heard about their truffle gnocchi however, when we got there, the waiter informed us that there was no truffle gnocchi at the time since they were not able to source good quality truffle - while slightly disappointed, I appreciated the waiters honesty & the restaurants commitment to QUALITY.
We took the tasting menu (you can choose a budget from $100-$360) of $100 per person & we left the restaurant completely full. The portions were perfect, everything was so delicious.
The waiter explained that you don't necessarily get more food if you choose a more expensive tasting menu, rather, you'll see items of higher quality like caviar & wagyu.
The $100 tasting menu included Korean beef tartare, razor clams, cherry tomatoes with a feta & cream cheese mix, lamb chops, scallops, & the piece de resistance... veal chop with a creamy linguine on top. However, you can customize the tasting menu to your liking so it can look very different from table to table.
The food was perfection, scallops were tender, lamb & veal as well. Nothing lacked flavour - we were honestly very impressed.
& can't forget to mention the service... incredible. For a restaurant that doesn't look like much from the outside, the food will blow you away. Highly recommend you visit!
