Review Summary

Le Clara offers a stylish and convenient dining experience nestled within the Place des Arts complex, making it a popular choice for theatergoers seeking a quick meal in a sophisticated, calm, and aesthetically pleasing environment. Many diners appreciate the efficient and friendly service, with staff members frequently highlighted for their attentiveness and professionalism.

Great service & great meal. We ended up here when another restaurant in place des arts where we had reservations told us they were out of everything on their menu except for 3 items. Le Clara gave us a table right away & the service was very quick, food was delicious, & the service from David was out of this world! Merci David & le Clara!

A great place to dine just before the show starts at Place des Arts. Drinks & food are delicious. You have an option to have drinks only or dine as well. Great staffs, very clean establishment. We will definitely going back there.

Interesting presentations, but if you're hungry before showtime, we do Not recommend this Resto.
Dishes are barely a small'fistful of food', at most.

I completely agree with a previous diner, Françoise, you can almost count the grains.
Certainly not worth the $200 per couple bill.
&, later we too were hungry, & needed street food.

This restaurant was recommended by Place des Arts & is within the complex as we had tickets to show that evening. We got there a little early (around 5 pm) & lots of seating s available. Closer to show time the place was packed. Service was very good & quick. The menu was limited but good choices. Overall we were satisfied but not outstanding.

Plats intéresssants (e.g. salicorne, courgettes marinées) mais quantité minime, j'ai dû me rabattre sur du street food après car j'avais encore faim. J'avais pourtant pris 2 assiettes. Un risotto duquel on peut compter les grains de riz…

Aucun choix végétarien dans les plats principaux. Aucun accommodement possible de la part de la cuisine. On s'est rabattu sur les 2 entrées végétariennes & l'assiette de fromages. Des entrées correctes mais très peu généreuses.
De plus, le service a manqué de professionnalisme : nous nous serions volontiers passés des remarques moqueuses du serveur soulignant que le poivre ou le vin étaient végétariens. Très décevant de constater un tel manque d'ouverture & d'adaptation en 2026.

A surprising out-of-the-way gem of a restaurant nestled in the PLACE des ARTS CENTRE on the beautiful pedestrian mall section of Rue Sainte - Catherine.
A unique seating arrangement around a circular art display supplemented by terrific service & a superlative chef & kitchen producing distinct menu offerings. My STEAK TARTARE was a generous portion of lovely flavours as was the PAN-FRIED TROUT & CANDIED RATATOUILLE & served simply (no unnecessary sides) to highlight the dishes' excellence.
Lovely wine selections to compliment the most enjoyable dinner in this unique venue. What an enjoyable vacation'find' for us!!!!
SUGGESTION: confirm their hours with the restaurant. Their website states open for dinner 4:30 to 11:00 p.m (...&'According to the shows at Place des Art ) but as we walked in fairly late we were just a bit rushed as they closed that night at 8 p.m.)

Bien campé au coeur de la Place des arts, Le Clara se démarque par l'accueil de son personnel passionné & attentionné qui nous fait vivre une expérience des plus agréables dans un décor ravivé & tendance où il fait bon se détendre en couple ou entre amis.es avant un spectacle ou lors d'une sortie en ville. & que dire de son menu bien diversifié qui offre des plats savoureux & équilibrés pour tous les goûts, accompagnés d'excellents cocktails, mocktails ou vins.
