Le Majestique Montréal comes across as a lively, eclectic bar-restaurant with a baroque and quirky decor, a buzzing atmosphere and a setting that shines for oysters, small plates and cocktails. The menu is tapas style with a focus on seafood and shareable dishes, with many reviewers praising the oysters as fresh and well shucked, the octopus as perfectly cooked and the mackerel spread as a standout, while some items such as tortelloni or certain preparations receive mixed reactions. Cocktails and natural wines are a recurring highlight, with several guests praising attentive service and knowledgeable staff when they are on, though a few experiences report slower service, understaffing during peak hours, or a server who was not up to par. Prices are described as on the high side for portion sizes, some noting that portions feel small for the cost, but many feel the quality and atmosphere justify the expense. Reservations are advised as the place can get busy, with a summer terrace enhancing the experience, and the venue is lauded as a must-visit for a fun night out, a date, or a celebration, though allergies or dietary requests should be confirmed in advance due to occasional missteps. Overall, Le Majestique Montréal is celebrated for its distinctive vibe, inventive menu and strong seafood and drink program, offering a memorable Montreal dining experience despite some inconsistencies.
Great atmosphere. Good oysters. Front of house was incredibly understaffed.
But for the love of God don't get the tortelloni it was $25 w/o tax for 3 tasteless tortelloni in a tasteless mushroom soup with cheese bricks that tasted like burnt kraft dinner cheese dust.
Stopped by for Happy Hour with some friends via a reservation made a few hours in advance. Our waiter was attentive to our needs & took the time to answer our questions as it was our first visit. Overall, quick service, fresh oysters & love the rustic bar décor! Left with happy smiles & will be back soon. Highly recommend!

Joli restaurant, malheureusement avec beaucoup de problèmes.
Vraiment déçu de notre expérience après de petites portions, des plats trop salés, des cocktails n'atteignant pas nos attentes & un service décevant. Un restaurant qui a certainement du potentiel mais n'a pas été à la hauteur ce soir.
Came in very late one night when I was incredibly hungry & in need of a good meal. Ordered a variety of their seafood dishes & was thoroughly impressed. As I often find myself getting off work when most restaurants have closed (excluding casse-crouts, shawarma, & fast food places), this has since become a go-to stop for me, & I have yet to be disappointed. On that first night that I came in , I also had the pleasure of meeting the gentleman who made my food (Cieran / Kieran, not sure about the spelling honestly) who - on top of having prepared some excellent bourgots & salmon tartare - was also very kind & hospitable. The same goes for the rest of the staff. No matter how busy it has been, they have always done their best to provide me with a welcoming vibe & a wonderful experience, & every visit so far has been fantastic.
For what it's worth, they also have an excellent cocktail, beer & wine menu.
Stopped by for early cocktails & it was right before the rush. The space is so beautifully decorated that it transports you into a vintage haven uniquely curated into magic. The bartender was excellent & kind enough to share some recommendations & create a cocktail to my liking. We ended up staying longer than expected & chose the cheese board which was phenomenal. Just a perfect way to close out our first day in Montreal! I look forward to visiting again soon!
I came here excited to spend time with friends, but unfortunately the service completely ruined the experience. The waitress was extremely rude & condescending throughout the checkout process. We asked to split the bill (which is a very normal request), but instead of helping us, she rolled her eyes, gave attitude, & acted as if we were a burden. Even when I offered to make it easier by writing down what each person ordered, she dismissed me & was like'No, it will be okay', while rolling her eyes again.
It wasn't just one mistake - she got the bill wrong multiple times, & each time her attitude got worse. By the end, it felt like she wanted us gone rather than treating us like paying customers.
The food itself was fine, but the service was so unprofessional that this will be my first & last visit. Restaurants should be about hospitality, & this was the complete opposite.
Perhaps the waitress was having a bad day, but my friend told me she came here the other night, & she had the same attitude. This is unacceptable!
Not so fresh oysters, nothing like they used to be. Prices on receipt higher than on the printed menu by like $1 or $2 all over the place. A not so majestic shadow of its former self...

Decent date spot, good dinner. Locals & tourists. Occasional excellent wine prices, always fun stuff though available. Get the hot dog, new chef is killing it rn
really good aux. Amazing music wow. I love the interior design a lot it's like wears waldo. One complaint is the shrimp risotto it was so expensive & so small. Would recommend

Delicious oysters, amazing fries & an elaborate wine list! This restaurant serves beautiful small plates in a cocktail bar setting featuring moody chandeliers, fun decor & a bustling, noisy ambiance.
Really cool restaurant with lots of decor almost like eating in an I Spy book. We stopped here for brunch & got the oysters plate, which was really tasty & creatively decorated. & we got the homemade focaccia, which was also excellent.
For drinks, I was hoping for the Roche Papier Shiso, but unfortunately, they ran out of shiso so I got a pretty good aperol spritz. However, then we got an espresso martini which my sister said was the best espresso martini she's ever had! & now I think she's made it her mission to come back to Montreal again to go here for another espresso martini
