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.

The onion soup was delicious & so was the burrata with carrots. I asked the waiter if I could get the homemade cavatelli with an extra onglet de boeuf on top & he had a blast going to the kitchen & making the request for me. Very friendly staff & top dining experience. I havejt eaten at a restaurant this good in years.View more
Gorgeous place, yummy seafood, attentive staff, in a great location. Me & my partner went for lunch, we got the seafood platter & it was so yummy & a great value. Especially for the place. The salmon tar tar was yummy & fresh. Get it spicy, it's not super hot but its soo flavorful. & the creme brulee is creamy & well balanced, not at all sweet & the caramelization on top is perfect. The wait staff were friendly & attentive, the espresso was great. Would absolutely recommend for a great lunch or dinner. (::View more

Super service combiné à une cuisine de qualité J'adore cet endroit, super menu, super service, pro comme il en existe peu ! Beau décor, le seul bémol est le mobilier : la banquette à besoin d'être rafraîchieView more
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
