About Us

Paris may be an ocean away, but the art of casual French bistro dining is not lost at Le Pois Penché in the heart of downtown Montréal.

The menu reads like a who’s-who of Parisian comfort food favourites, with beloved classics the likes of steak tartare and duck confit in mustard sauce alongside an array of spectacular seafood platters. Boasting one of the most interesting wine collections in the city, Le Pois Penché offers an impressive selection of imported bottles and wines by the glass.  

This authentic French brasserie delivers fine cuisine in simple opulence: plush red velvet, checkerboard floor tile, crystal chandeliers, large paintings and a blackboard listing the daily specials on the wall. In the middle, a large bar; around it, busy waiters flitting to and from, outfitted in the traditional white shirt, black vest and apron. French bistro, through and through.

Le Pois Penché’s terrasse buzzes with animated conversation while its private banquet rooms reserve their splendour for group functions. Le Cellier, in particular, offers a sumptuous venue for events up to 70 guests, with vibrant Parisian settings by artist Pierre Pivet, a vaulted brick ceiling, and the restaurant’s prized wine cellars displayed behind sleek glass panels. Connected to the brasserie, Salon Chez Swann, in the boutique hotel of the same name, is ideal for groups of 24 guests or less.

This place is a must stoo on a culinary tour of Montreal. The staff the open kitchen & the food was amazing. Our server Guillaume was very helpful in choosing entres & wine. They have sourced out a farm that has certified Wagu cows limited to only 14 animals.a year. Although didn't have time to try will definitely partake next time. I have been to many Michelin Star establishments as you can see from my posts & this place is by far one of the top 5 restaurants I have been to. The flavor was outstanding in everything & you can feel the passion in the food that is prepared. The oysters were perfect. The grilled octopus is comparable to Octopus I have had in Rome. The Duck Confit was the best I have had. Well done! I will be back!View more

A fancy & pleasant restaurant with delicious food!! Some higher-end restaurants give quite small servings but this was not one of those restaurants! I was quite full at the end of the meal, & they gave us a nice bag to take home the rest of the food we didn't eat!View more

One of the favorite fine dining places must try in downtown Montreal. The vibes are amazing, live music & singer ( ❤️). Service is world class. Food was above expectations. Tried the grilled octopus appetizer, the duck & salman main meal were perfect. Cocktail 🍸 is the best in town. Tried La cuillette, rosy with thyme a touch of heaven. Absolutely will come back evey time visit downtown MontrealView more

Très bien comme place. Service impeccable & personnel, bien joué & appliqué. Ce restaurant n'est pas pas pour les petits budget par contre, vérifiez les prix. Une suggestion: tant qu'à faitr payer 15$ pour une bière, il serait bien d'offrir une bière de micro locale originale, nous en avons d'excellente à Montréal ( Brewskey, Messorem, Toltek). Nourriture excellente & qui vaut le prix ( cest relatif! ). Il est à noter qu'une très belle salle de réception privée est disponible & conviviale pour 50 personnes au sous sol. Bref, je recommande pour une soirée chic avant un concert ou bien pour souligner un anniversaire etc.View more

Je viens de redecouvrir cet établissement au travers de sa table d'hôte du midi. Une cuisine avec de l'imagination, vraiment bien faite & délicieuse, pour un rapport qualité prix intéressant. Les bouchées à la reine aux escargots de l'entre étaient un bonheur : un plat qu'on aimerait aussi retrouver à la carte.View more

Très bon ! Resto typique pour le monde snob qui gagnent plus que que l'reste du monde, mais le staff est cap d'être terre à terre. Nourriture classique du type pour le ±60$, sans plus. Les plats 150$+ sont une autre classe & eux, impressionnent. AlexView more
