Set in beautiful location on Montreal's West Island in the heart of Pointe Claire-Village, this Cajun-flavoured French restaurant attracts clientele from both the nearby suburbs and the hard-to-please downtown crowd. Le Gourmand boasts a casual atmosphere combined with sophisticated cuisine, in a stone house with flower-covered terrace.
The recent addition of a wine bar has blended the historic past with an exciting future! Enjoy a relaxing cocktail at the bar before diner.
Diners describe Le Gourmand as delivering delicious, well presented dishes, a cozy yet elegant atmosphere, and attentive service, with standout items including terrine, the mushroom entree, shrimp and scallops, veal scallopini, duck, and desserts like creme brulee and profiteroles. While opinions are largely positive about the food and ambience, some visits are noted as pricey for the quality and portions, and a few reviewers mention inconsistent service, long waits, or noise on the terrace. A few dishes sparked mixed feedback, such as crab cakes tasting like tuna salad, and several guests feel the value varies with the experience. Overall, Le Gourmand is described as a reliable, often memorable spot that regulars look forward to returning to for refined dishes in a warm setting.
A wonderful restaurant that virtually transports me to France. Wonderful old interior with a separate bar & a spacious terrace. Amazing music & delicious European cuisine. I have never eaten more delicious onion soup in my life, I also want to note the oysters are always amazing here. I recommend this restaurant to everyone, I am sure that you will enjoy it.

Cozy french restaurant, about 10 minute ride from airport hotels. Good onion soup & an outstanding duck, among other dishes. Quick & friendly service, delicious!!! Do reserve a table as it is popular, & for a good reason.
Wow , delicious & great service! Worth every penny. Went on a busy Friday & there found me a place for 3 on the terrace which feels like your in a cozy garden. Absolutely beautiful!!! The service was wonderful & attentive. Great customer service is hard to find & they definitely have it. The food ohhh the food absolutely delicious. We had 6 appetizers which was more than enough for 3 people & their gnocchi is a must. I will definitely be a repeat customer.
I have ordered the steak for lunch. I've requested for it to be medium rare but it came as medium well. I have waited for the server to come & check how our meals were, but it never happened. The fries served looked & tasted like it sat on the corner under a heating lamp & was a bunch of the left overs. The mussels were less than average. Bitter at most. Onion soup was almost ok. It was cold in barely 2mins. I went in quite expecting something really good but it was quite disappointing.
One of the best restaurants that we went in Montreal. Amazing food, cozy but fancy ambience & great service. We tried different appetizers & mains but will sure be back to try other things on the menu.
Charming location in Pointe-Claire village. The service was on point! The restaurant is small yet cozy. The drinks were good, the food was delicious. Very flavorful & cooked perfectly. The portion size was ample. A must try restaurant!
So yummy, & a great bilingual service. We had some oysters, got the salmon/sturgeon appetizers, I got a perfectly cooked filet mignon (pictured) & my better half got a very tasty cod (morue d'Islande). Definitely a keeper, would give six stars if I could!
Excellent experience. The food was very flavorful & well timed between entrées & the main courses. The duck was amazing as was the filet mignon & both were cooked to perfection. Our server Catherine was top notch. Bravo!
This is a beautiful historic building with an experiment good restaurant as a bonus. The staff was great & the food was even better. Thank you for a great anniversary meal.
Quebecers know how to make fabulous french onion soup. This restaurant knows how to do everything right. Fantastic food & drinks. Great place for a special get together. Wow! Yum!
