Le Godot is widely praised as a creative, refined dining spot in Verdun, known for seasonal ingredients and inventive presentations. The five course tasting with wine pairings is a recurring highlight, with complex flavors and flawless technique, while the bistronomie option is described as generous and satisfying. Service is consistently described as impeccable and attentive, with a warm, intimate ambiance, though some visits note occasional delays, a cold dining room, or limited wine explanations during busy times. The setting is intimate and the lighting subdued, giving a refined but welcoming vibe that many reviewers consider a hidden gem on Wellington. Portions on tasting menus are often small, but the overall experience is valued for quality, balance, and thoughtful courses that showcase local produce. The wine list and kitchen collaboration receive frequent compliments, and the staff are praised for hospitality and knowledge, making guests feel well cared for. Some critiques point to event nights or dietary restrictions not being fully anticipated, and a few comments mention price versus portions, but the consensus remains that Le Godot delivers a memorable, high level dining experience worth returning for.
Nous étions 4 & chacun de nous a apprécié. Bonne bouffe. Service de Nicolas excellent. Rien à redire. Belle expérience dans un endroit charmant. Allez-y.
Merci pour les plats vraiment succulents & même surprenants pour certains. Excellent, toutefois assez cher pour des portions Tapas (20 a 35$ juin 2023). Offrir quelques petites entrées/ amuse-bouche pour l'appero serait pertinent. Partagé 6 tapas & 2 desserts, 1 btl de vin & un apéritif chacun pour 90$ par personnes tx & service inclus, c'est exagéré.
Un petit bijou! Le décor est vraiment très beau, la carte variée & le service impeccable. Nous avons profité des huîtres à 1$ le mercredi & nous avons goûté la poutine revisitée très bonne & les gnocchis qui étaient succulents! Parfait pour se retrouver entre ami.es ou pour une date. J'ai adoré & je reviendrai pour goûter le reste qui a l'air délicieux!
Loved this place so so so much!!! It is my new 5 à 7 go-to. It was ***delicious***, I was tempted to lick my plate. I really recommend the beef tartare. Very relaxing, clean, modern amotsphere. Servers were friendly, & checked-in to fill our water very often (Thank you Nick). I think the prices are fair, especially for the artistic & creative dishes, & the promotions seem like a good deal (I intend to find out for myself!). We each had two dishes & a cocktail, coming to $50-$60 per person. Highly recommended for a relaxed, low-key but special & classy dinner & cocktail.
A really pleasant surprise. The food was creative tasty well presented & excellent. The service was professional & timely & I really liked the balance between a attentiveness & allowing us to have our own space & enjoy the meal. They were also helpful about picking out certain dishes & suggesting drinks. Atmosphere is very pleasant. Attractively decorated with some mice touches such as wildflowers bouquets on each table & attractive lighting.
Nice restaurant, classy & simple. Food is tasty, innovative & super nicely presented. The presentation & preparation of the poutine is super interesting: sort of a mille feuille of potatoes & halumi cheese. The rest of the main dishes were ok & easy to share. The jewel: the dessert. A pear inside of mille feuille that tastes amazingly good & it's just perfect. The service is more than good. Our waiter come at perfect times & provided all the help we asked for.

Got recommended this local spot & happy we tried it out! Interesting dishes to try as sharing plates. Very reasonable prices for a fancy/ elevated atmosphere... starting with PEI oysters & scallops 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Always ready to try out a new restaurant in my hood, especially if boozy brunch is served! The cocktail we had, the Julie Wallbanger, was absolutely terrific. Think orange julep, with hooch! The taste & mouth were excellent. The menu had a few classic brunch dishes you would expect from a hip bistro, we went for the avocado toast & chicken & waffles. The C&W was topped with berries & not saucy, so it wasn't too cloying. The elements of the dish could have used a little extra oomph, like something in the waffle batter or maybe a spicy element. The toast had maybe a little too much pico de gallo - it was Cinco de Mayo after all - & the avocado was sorta lost in the shuffle. Overall the dishes were good, not great. Portion sizes were good, we didn't need anything else on the side. Service was excellent, the staff was friendly & our dishes were served quickly. Prices were on par for this kind of place. I want to try the dinner menu, the wine list looked interesting. I'd recommend this place for a date.
Beautifully executed dishes. Fresh ingredients, tasty sauces & seasonings, gorgeous presentation. The decor is mid century whilst restrained & elegant, with lots of room & a decent noise volume to enjoy your tapas dinner. A wonderful discovery in Verdun.
Nice, intimate atmosphere. Delicious dishes that pair well together & with wine - especially Crudo de pétoncles with dumplings & Crevettes Scampi with Salad du marché. Dishes were well priced & service was excellent. Definitely would recommend for a girl's night out or a first date.
I recently visited Le Godot & had a fantastic time. The atmosphere was great for a date night or hanging out with friends. The service was top-notch, friendly & attentive. The food was delicious, with flavorful dishes from start to finish. They also have a good selection of drinks. I highly recommend checking it out for a fun night out!
Exceptional Brunch Experience! From start to finish, our brunch at le godot was simply outstanding. The atmosphere was inviting, the service was impeccable, & the food was absolutely delicious. We had a bit of everything (we strongly recommend doing this) & it was so yummy. Our meal was perfectly complemented by refreshing mimosas. We can't wait to return for another memorable meal!
Amazing restaurant! Best food I've had in 2024 so far. Aesthetically pleasing ambiance. Waiters, owners & chef all came to thank us at our table. 12/10. Amazing addition to the Verdun restaurant scene. Bravo👏🏻
