Review Summary

Reviews describe Le Filet as a standout seafood spot in Montreal with consistently excellent food and warm, professional service set in a welcoming atmosphere that can range from cozy to lively. Dishes like octopus, oysters, tuna tartare, ceviche, miso gratin oysters, and other seafood creations are repeatedly praised for flavor, presentation, and balance, and the kitchen's openness adds to the engaging vibe. The staff are noted as attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely hospitable, with wine pairings and menu guidance highlighted as a strength. While the restaurant is seen as offering great value for the quality, a few voices mention high prices or portions that felt small for the cost.

Group of four on a Saturday evening, we had reservations at 5.30pm as it was the only available time so think ahead if you want to go on a weekend evening. Warm welcome on arrival & seated promptly near the bar. The layout is narrow & deep with a bar on one side & open kitchen at the back. Apps were good, we had the oysters to start, gf had ceviche which was the best starter of the group. My tuna tartare was good as well. Mains were also very good, fish & beef jowls were excellent. Extensive wine list is offered but very pricey with only a few

What a gem of a restaurant. The meal was one of the best I've had in years (fish of the day & the maple dessert were standouts) & the service was excellent throughout. Special thanks to Sarah who was knowledgeable & delightful in equal measure.

Wow, this place hits it out of the park! Even the price is reasonable. One of the most enjoyable dining & drinking experiences of my life. I & a friend both had the beet & raw fish salad, I believe it was jack fish? My friend THOUGHT she hated beets, not anymore! I also had the Negroni made with rye. Excellent! We lucked out & arrived when they weren't busy.

Le Filet is hands down one of the best dining experiences in Montreal. The service was attentive & thoughtful from start to finish, & the atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between upscale & inviting.

If you're a seafood lover, this place is a must. Every dish we tried was incredibly well-executed - light, delicate, & bursting with flavor. You can really taste the care & creativity in each bite.

Pro tip: come hungry, aim for the fish, & definitely leave room for dessert. Trust me - it's worth it.

Highly recommended for a special night out or anyone looking to truly savor the best of what Montreal's culinary scene has to offer.

Back here now 10 times since the last review. Hands down our favourite restaurant in Montreal. Food is incredible, great vibe. Kitchen is a marvel to watch as they prepare food. It does not matter which dish you try, they are all impeccable. Always have the fish of the week/day, which was a masterpiece. Choice of wine & service is 10/10.

Really great. Fast, friendly service. All four appetizers were wonderful: tuna tartare, smoked salmon, yellow tail & octopus. We loved our squid ink pasta & fish specials. Excellent maple square dessert. Top ten Montreal dining experience.
