A small bistro located in Villeray at the intersection of two side streets (St-Dominique and Guizot—hence the G) Restaurant Le Coin G is always a popular spot for lunch or dinner. On the weekends they also serve breakfast and brunch, but every day features new chef's specials with interesting ingredients, to keep people coming back for more. A lively bistro occupying a small space, Restaurant Le Coin G is both unpretentious and boisterous. The menu offers a great variety of options, from sandwiches and burgers to pastas, hot and cold appetizers (try the escargots or the crab cakes), salads, fish, the sausage du jour, pork, beef and more. The chef's specials are always appealing and vary from day to day, so you may have to make this a regular stop on your culinary journeys. On weekends, Restaurant Le Coin G adds breakfast and brunch options to their menu and caters to the more laid-back brunch crowd. Of course, since nobody's in a hurry to leave, this just means you'll have to wait a bit longer for a table. Luckily, they're open late and there's plenty of art on the walls to keep you occupied while you wait. In the summertime, check out their small terrace for an even more laid-back vibe.

Amazing food & atmosphere! The staff is so friendly & it's in such a cute spot. Great gluten-free options & wine selection. They have something for everyone.
Le cadre est très beau, le service était irréprochable & on s'est tous régalés. En plus, les prix étaient plus que raisonnables. Je reviendrai sûrement !
Went once before & food was good. Went today for chicken parma with rose sauce on top of it with fetucini in butter sauce. I asked to put rose sauce on pasta & a little rose on the side. Chicken on top of past & had some rose sauce. Outcome soggy chicken parma in which I scratched off all the bather which left me a thin slice of chicken. Pasta watery rose no taste. Not a repeat for me. I eat our every single day at various places. I actually have a upset stomach at the moment of writting this.

J'y vais régulièrement pour déjeuner. Les assiettes sont bonnes & généreuses. La qualité du service est irréprochable! Les serveurs sont très aimables & ont vraiment le souci du détail.
Nourriture excellente comme le steak 🥩 que j'ai pris très bien cuit & assaisonné, mais malheureusement certains des légumes qui l'accompagnaient étaient moins réussis & surtout les patates pilées étaient malheureusement assez moches merci. Ma conjointe a pris une entrée de moules à la crème Madagascar 🇲🇬 & elles étaient excellentes! Carte très variés avec des prix qui reste très raisonnable pour l'époque. Le même type de cuisine au centre-ville ou vieux Montréal pourrait facilement couter le double du prix. Portions généreuses.
I saw this little restaurant while I was taking a walk in the neighborhood & decided to try it out! I went with a friend, we got there 15 minutes before our reservations & we were still seated immediately. The waiter was very nice & always made sure our water was full. (I drink so much water & most restaurants forget to fill your glass) so I was very, very happy about this. The water also tasted rather clean compared to most tap water (which I rarely drink unless I'm in a restaurant) I had the beef tartare as an entree & it was fresh & very tasty. As well as the duck confit poutine as a main, which was great but the gravy did come with whole mushrooms which I wasn't expecting & I thought took over the dish. Still delicious. The wine menu is short so your not stuck having to choose between so many wines & the prices are unbeatable. I thought it might've been wrong. But it wasn't. Thank you for a wonderful dinner, Le Coin G. I'll be back soon!

J'aurais dû venir voir les reviews ici avant de commander. J'ai commandé le sandwich poulet bbq, pas très bon avec les tomates qui sont chaude & molle à cause du poulet. Le poulet farci brocolis est sans saveur & les pâte à côté je n'en parlerai pas. 9,75$ pour une petite pointe de tarte qui a été acheté à l'épicerie. La seule chose passable était la soupe à l'oignon. Bref, mangeable sans plus!
Un resto de quartier où nous sommes retourné ce samedi... & où on ne remettra plus les pieds malgré la gentillesse du service. Mais que voulez-vous, quand vous avez de goût de prendre le serveur dans vos bras pour de consoler de devoir servir une si triste pitance, y a quelque chose qui va pas. Nous aurions dû nous méfier dès notre arrivée, car la salle était complètement vide & une seule tablée de quatre nous a tenu compagnie sur la terrasse. Un samedi soir! Après une salade verte & un bol de crème de brocoli sans éclat, les plats sont venu enfoncer le clou. Aubergine mal apprêtée, escalope de veau dure & grise comme de la semelle de botte avec un goût de vieux frigo sous une sauce aux champignons gélatineuse, les deux accompagné de fettucine qu'on se ferait sur le coin du poèle un soir de déprime, il n'aurait plus manqué que le ciel menaçant nous crève sur la tête. J'ai gentiment signalé le problème du veau à notre hôte, qui m'a tout aussi gentiment proposé un poulet parmigiana à la place, qui lui, sans être catastrophique, s'est avéré n'être qu'un bout de poitrine panée sous une sauce rosée générique surmontée de fromage & gratinée vite fait. La mousse au caramel salé en dessert devait avoir été faite la semaine précédente, mais le café était correct. Ça fait quelques expériences affligeantes comme ça que nous avons eu depuis que les restaurants tentent de survivre à l'après-pandémie, & franchement, ça me brise le coeur de dire ça, mais celui-là n'est pas parti pour survivre encore lontemps.
Je n'ai jamais eu un service aussi attentionné, tous restaurants confondus. Ex: le serveur vient changer la serviette de table dès qu'elle est utilisée. Il n'y a même pas ça à la Tour Dorée, Le Bernardin ou Chez Toqué! C'est simple mais ça dit tout. Bravo les gars.
We had a great experience here! I came with a large group & they were super accommodating. The servers were very kind & fast, they split checks individually even though we had 20 people. The food & drinks were also spot on. The menu has a wide variety so everyone was able to find something they liked. I would definitely go back again, especially with a group.
