Large portion at a reasonable price! Foie gras in their appetizers is a must-have!
Really recommend the lamb cause it's so juicy & tender. We are also impressed with the duck breast & it comes with very good cheese.
However, the desserts are too sweet for us….my bad
Nous étions un groupe de 5 pour l'anniversaire d'une amie & quelle découverte!! La nourriture est vraiment incroyable. Je recommande pour une occasion spéciale.
C'est une formule 4 services, où le prix dépend du repas principal. Les pris sont 50-70$ par repas complet. J'ai trouvé que c'était un prix fair pour la qualité de la cuisine!!
Je recommande: profitérol au boeuf braisé & fromage de chèvre, magret de canard, crème brûlée & poisson du jour (nous c'était une truite)
Mention spéciale à Marc-Antoine, notre serveur extraordinaire
- Bread: Cold, butter softened, chicken liver pate - phenomenal. I could eat it all.
- Soup. Rutabaga, very clean, flavourful & perfect hotness for the mouth.
- The froe grois: Cold like a stick of butter.
- Creamy, smooth, bread was lightly toast very airy. Apricot citrus balance & roasted peanuts.
- Duck breast: cooked medium, it could be rarer. Flavour was on point. Very full with the potato like root in bottom. Crispy skin. Demi-glaze. Beans carrots & Bok choy.
- Crème brûlée: thin sugar brûlée on top. Creme was creamy with a touch of French vanilla. Maple syrup.
- Chocolate mousse : nice presentation, too sweet. It didn't need the extra caramel or chocolate sauce on top. The peanuts complimented the texture & taste.
The portion size for each dish is very generous. Cost to Quality to quantity 👍🏻👍🏻
We noticed many people brought their own wine to pair with the food.
Food came out quickly, after each dish was served.
Restaurant is very cozy & quaint. There is barely any room between the neighbouring tables. When the server was at the other table, his butt bumped into my arm twice. It was rather firm.
I would Highly Recommend it this restaurant to everyone.
I will come back.
Sur la recommandation d'un ami, nous avons découvert ce petit bijou de la cuisine française. Derrière une façade discrète se cache un véritable paradis gastronomique ! Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis comme chez des amis : chaleureusement, avec respect & attention.
Le stationnement étant limité, le propriétaire n'a pas hésité à déplacer sa propre voiture pour nous faire de la place - un geste rare & tellement apprécié. Le service est rapide : à peine le temps d'échanger quelques mots que les entrées arrivaient déjà sur la table.
Nous étions cinq convives, & chacun a été conquis par son plat, tous dignes d'un cinq étoiles ! Pour ma part, j'ai choisi le carré d'agneau : parfaitement assaisonné, tendre à souhait. Mon ami, lui, a été agréablement surpris par le canard - une viande souvent difficile à cuire sans la dessécher, ici fondante & savoureuse.
Autant dire que l'expérience culinaire dans son ensemble a été tout simplement parfaite, tant sur le plan gustatif que sur le plan humain. Nous recommandons vivement ce restaurant : venez avec votre famille, vos amis & pourquoi pas une bonne bouteille de vin rouge de votre cave personnelle. Mais surtout, n'oubliez pas de réserver à l'avance !
Nestled in-between homes was this cute & cozy restaurant. Everything from the starters to the dessert were great! I tried the beef profiteroles, joue de boeuf & the tarte tartin. My husband had the bison bavette for his main but was a bit disappointed with the flavour - it did not taste like bison, it tasted like beef. He had the pavlova for dessert - it is hard to choose which was the better dessert option - the tartin or the pavlova as they were both great!
The cons of the evening were the service - the waiters didn't take time to explain the menu options even though the menu is small & they aren't very attentive (they didn't
refill our water unless we asked them to). The AC also was not on so it was very hot & sticky inside the restaurant.
Overall - great food & we would recommend this BYOW restaurant!
This is the best restaurant in Montreal. European flare, great service & amazing food. Always recommend to everyone. &… it's a BYOW, what else could you ask for? Highly recommend
Le Pégase is a great spot for French food! The portions are huge, so you definitely get your money's worth. They have some really unique sauce combinations that make the dishes stand out. From appetiser to dessert!
The lamb rack was amazing-crispy on the outside, super tender & juicy inside. Easily one of the best I've had!
On top of that, the staff is super friendly & makes the experience even better. Definitely recommend checking this place out!
Le Pégase est de loin le meilleur restaurant que je connaisse ! La nourriture est absolument délicieuse, toujours fraîche & savoureuse. Le personnel est incroyablement sympathique, attentif & chaleureux, ce qui rend chaque visite spéciale. En plus, les prix sont très raisonnables pour la qualité des plats & du service. J'y vais toutes les semaines, & je ne suis jamais déçu(e) ! Je le recommande vivement à tous ceux qui cherchent une expérience culinaire exceptionnelle
Cozy little French restaurant in a calm neighbourhood. Our waiter was very friendly & polite. Food was great, loving the Escargots & Trou Normand a lot. Will recommend.
