Restaurant Le Pégase in the popular Le Plateau district is an excellent restaurant offering a fine traditional French cuisine which will seduce you.

While the restaurant is compact and can get lively, it remains a favorite neighborhood destination for those seeking a cozy, authentic atmosphere, provided that reservations are made in advance to secure a spot in this popular local gem.
Highly recommend you book a spot in advance, the restaurant is a little bit small but there is a good amount of seating. I've been here a few times & the authentic French food & service is always great. I recommend bringing your own bottle of wine to go with your food since the restaurant does not have alcohol for purchase. The servers will help you uncork it & put in a container of ice to keep it cool, all free of charge.
A gem of a French restaurant. Each dish was fantastic. Excellent quality & freshness of ingredients prepared to perfection.Ambiance is nice , not too loud, friendly attentive staff. The only problem with our dinner was that our wine was corked! LOL, so next time we will bring a second bottle. Lesson learned!
Very reasonably priced. $52-$62 per meal. No corking fee for bringing your own bottle of wine. They don't serve alcohol so if you don't bring your own, you won't be able to order any there. The bison steak was supposed to be medium rare but came out very rare & under done. They did try to fix it & provided a free dessert as an apology. Overall still a fantastic experience & would definitely go back

Had it with lamb chops! Good Bision with a La Grand Art Medoc Bordeaux April 11/24
I had high expectations when visiting Le Peagase in Montreal, but unfortunately, they were not met. To start, the soup we ordered was extremely bland & watery, failing to impress as a starter. Moving on to the entrees, while the tartare & Profiteroles au boeuf braisé & fromage de chèvre were enjoyable, the black pudding Parmentier left much to be desired. For the main dishes, the rack of lamb & rabbit pasta were average, lacking the special touch that would make them stand out. Although the rabbit pasta sauce was decent, the overall experience fell short of expectations. However, the ribs stood out as the highlight of the meal-well-flavored, tender, & truly enjoyable. On a positive note, the dessert selection was exceptional, with each offering delivering delightful flavors & textures. Additionally, I appreciated the option to bring our own wine, which added to the overall dining experience.
We came here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday & it is our first time having French cuisine together. Amazing food & experience. You can bring your own wine. Servers are extremely friendly & explained the dishes to us (only French menu is provided). Very affordable prices for a set menu that includes soup/salad, appetizer, main & dessert - they are very generous with portion. Definitely go with an empty stomach & you won't be disappointed!! Will visit here again when we are in Montreal next time. :)
Un des meilleurs restaurants que j'ai fait dans tout le Canada ! Un incroyable dîner qui en plus propose une option Trou normand. La viande est cuisinée de manière délicieuse & avec des sauces qui se marient incroyablement bien. Entre le croque monsieur au canard en entrée en passant par le lapin pâte & le magret qui fond en bouche... Les cuisiniers savent refaire des classiques culinaires tour en les revisitant à leur sauce. On sent que ce restaurant a sa propre cuisine mais aussi une âme! On s'en rend compte en parlant aux habitués qui viennent régulièrement & donnent des conseils aux nouveaux venus ! Mes félicitations & continuez comme ça ! Le petit plus bring your own wine qui vous permettra de prendre exactement le vin dont vous avez besoin !
Service is really & food is splendid at all times like I always wanted every time I come here. Spent my first birthday with my newly married husband here & it was all I needed. I liked their chicken liver pate that is complimentary with the bread, we both got their turnip soup that is delicious. Then foie gras for me & escargot for him, foie gras has a lot of wine in there that couldn't taste the bad organ at all which I liked. My husband has had bad escargot before but this one he liked as well. My husband wasn't very used to the medium rare lamb but I had a good time with my bison, also with the beet purée that was so flavourful. The dessert was definitely the best ending of the whole meal. Home baked apple pie with ice cream on the side, warm & cold at the same time, perfect ending! Definitely coming back every time I'm in Montreal :) Also special thanks to both servers & hats off to the chef
Hidden in a residential area, is this gem of a restaurant. Small, crammed & loud which ironically all add to its charm. The food was exceptional, beautifully cooked & presented. Every bite was delicious from entre to dessert. The escargot with blue cheese was a symphony of flavor dancing in your mouth. Of course it's a bring your own wine which adds to its appeal. A reservation is a must & on busy nights expect to wait a few minutes until a table frees up.
Had a great birthday dinner here! Great price for the food & service! It's a BYOB so don't forget the wine! Luckily if you do, there's a liquor store not even 10-20m away to get a bottle 🥳
