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.

Just a terrific neighborhood bistro. Not a "fine dining" pretentious place, just really good food. The service is attentive, but not rushed. The 5 of us all ordered different meals, & everyone of us said they would visit again. I was impressed that they paid attention to the fact that one of us had a serious nut allergy, & took extra care to accommodate him. I thought the price for this really well prepared & delicious food was a terrific value, & combined with the attentive service, deserves five stars.

Trop rapide! Réservation à 19h30 & on était ressortis à 20h30 (2 adultes & 1 ado). Vin servi chaud. On a demandé un seau à glace, mais il n'a jamais eu le temps de refroidir.
Nos plats étaient très bons, malgré tout (des burgers).
Repas principal délicieux, belle présentation, chaud. Serveurs courtois & gentils, mais service un peu expéditif. On aurait dit qu'on ne pouvait pas prendre notre temps (repas, dessert & facture en à peine 1h pour un souper). Fondant au chocolat un peu décevant. Portion très petite & ressemblait plus à un pouding qu'à un fondant. Globalement agréable comme endroit & nourriture très bonne.
La sauce des escalopes de veau manquait de goût & d'amour mais le veau était, quant à lui, très tendre.
La tartare de boeuf était excellent, gâché par le goût de poudre d'ail des croûtons secs & sans amour (beurre ou huile d'olive). Les frites était vraiment excellentes.
Le poisson frit était ok mais la panure était loin d'être cette qu'on attends d'un fish & chips.
Les calmars frits devaient être servis avec une sauce au poivrons rouges mais l'on été avec une simple tartare.
Le cosmopolitanism était très dilué.

Pas la première fois à ce restaurant, mais hier soir j'ai été très déçue. Bien que nous ayions été bien servies, les olives de mon martini étaient insipides, mon entrée de crabe délicieuse, mais mon poulet à la Toscane sans saveur, sans sel ni poivre. Ce restaurant ferme à 21 h, déjà à 20 h 30, un employé a commencé à laver le plancher dans la partie sans clients. Quelle manque de respect & surtout l'odeur était désagréable.
Excellent service, ambiance agréable & calme.
Il y a 2 plats qui gagneraient à être améliorés: fondant au chocolat : je ne crois pas que ce soit un fondant. Je pense que c'est de la crème glacée avec un fudge au chocolat.
Le tartare de boeuf manque de goût. Il gagnerait à être épicé.
