Small place, cozy, incredibly nice, very welcoming staff & the food was truely amazing- all at a very reasonable price. Bring your own wine. Took a chance on the soup, followed by the escargots with the blue cheese sauce all wrapped in a nice crêpe as the entrée & then the bison as the main & the crème brûlée for dessert - absolutely no regrates. This meal was ~ 60 CAD Highly recommended
A cozy hidden gem in Montreal. Superb course menu & very cost effective.
Came here with a large group of friends on a Saturday night & we basically filled up the restaurant. It's a very small place & looks like someone's house transformed into a dining experience.
The menu is simple: you pick from a list of entrees & it will include a soup or salad, an appetizer, & a dessert for one single price.
I got a soup, beef & cheese profiteroles, duck breast, & a tarte tatin for $60! A four course meal for that price point is unheard of, & the quality definitely didn't disappoint either.
Each dish was carefully & professionally made, all presented to you like it was a Michelin star restaurant. Highly recommend getting the flank steak or the duck breast, & the rest is whatever you are craving.
It felt like you couldn't go wrong with any item here. The service was top notch & the ambiance was cozy. For a special occasion or date night, I HIGHLY recommend checking this place out!
Nous avons eu beaucoup de circulation & avons appelé pour prévenir que nous serions en retard de 20 à 30 minutes. Le personnel a été très compréhensif & nous a même offert une soupe ainsi qu'un délicieux pâté avec du pain frais. Un geste très apprécié.
Le gravlax de truite était parfaitement équilibré, le carré d'agneau était cuit exactement saignant comme demandé, & le Death by Chocolate était incroyable. Je mange rarement des desserts, mais celui-ci était parfaitement équilibré & pas trop sucré.
Une expérience mémorable. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.
Fantastic food & wonderful hospitality.
We were driving from the South Shore & got caught in unusually heavy traffic, so I called to let the restaurant know we'd be 20-30 minutes late. The staff were so understanding, & when we arrived they even treated us to soup & delicious pâté with fresh bread. Such a thoughtful gesture.
The Trout Gravlax was beautifully balanced, the Lamb Rack was perfectly cooked rare, & the Death by Chocolate was outstanding. I rarely eat desserts, but this chocolate mousse was rich, smooth, & perfectly balanced without being overly sweet.
A truly memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be back.

Went to Le Pegase with a friend. We had the soup (4 star), croquette de boudin (4 star) & escargots with blue cheese (5 star), the lamb (4 star) & bison (4 star), the creme brulee (5 star) & the pavlova (4.5 star). But I forgot my 2001 valdicava brunello in the wine cooler; it went down to 11 C & lost its greatness.
Fabulous fabulous fabulous. Made a reservation for 2 & brought our own wine (no fee for corkage, be sure to bring your own though bc they don't sell wine). It's a set menu so you get ~4 courses included & the prices range from $55-67. They were out of the soup for starter so we had to pick salad, it was fine. The salmon tartare was amazing but the beef profiteroles were meh. For our main plates we got the lamb chops & bison steak - both a 10/10, amazing. The crème brûlée was to DIE for. I would eat that as my death row meal. The chocolate death thing was also good. Ended up spending ~$167 with tax & tip for the two of us. Worth it for this succulent meal.
Le Pégase is one of the top French restaurants in the city. You get a set menu to choose 4 dishes (soup/salad, entree, main dish & dessert) & meal is priced as per the main course. The dishes are fresh, unique & totally worth the money. The place is incredibly small & usually packed (because of how good it is) which means that it's difficult to have a conversation without overhearing other tables. I would definitely come back here for special occasions.
- 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.
Très bon souper, petite salle à manger (température un peu chaude en journée de canicule). Les plats étaient tous très bien & le service aussi.
Seul bémol: lors du paiement, on nous demande d'insérer une carte car'la machine ne fonctionne pas pour taper'. On nous mentionne aussi que le restaurant n'accepte pas les Amex malgré que ça fonctionne parfaitement dans les deux cas.
We've been to Le Pegase several years ago & was really impressed by their food in term of their taste & presentation. The soup/salad, appetizer & entree are at expectation. I especially like their bison steak, the meat is medium-rare on top of meshed sweet potatoes, beans & bok choy. However, the pavlova was too hard to eat, kind of like over baked meringue. & the dessert of the day is three mini-chocolate puff, that can be easily get !at Costco. Anyway, the waiter was polite & efficient. The overall experience is nice.
