Le Rouge Gorge is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal, celebrated for its impressive wine selection, creative cocktails, and a cozy, stylish atmosphere that suits both romantic dates and social gatherings. Many patrons praise the high quality of the food, particularly noting recent menu improvements, though some suggest that portions are better suited for sharing rather than as full meals.

Great wine bar. No reservations but got good seat at the bar for early evening drinks. Very good wine selection & knowledgeable staff. Technically not dinner menu but portions are very big. Recommend!

Excellent service, rien a dire! Cependant cela devient vite une cacophonie quand c'est rempli. Mais c'est un excellent bar à vin. Je recommande!

I did not eat food here, so I can not comment on it, though it did look really well-plated. I came in for drinks last night to meet with a friend of mine that I haven't seen in 4 years. The bar itself is incredibly cozy & great for having a chat & hanging out. Thomas, our waiter, was excellent. He provided great customer service & was very attentive the whole night, along with great vibes. He helped us with drink decisions. Personally, I do love a London mule, but the London mule here was not the best I have ever had; that would be my only improvement.

Certainement l'un des meilleurs bars-restaurants qu'on puisse trouver à Montréal. La décoration est très élégante & le personnel extrêmement professionnel & poli. La qualité des cocktails & des plats est excellente pour le prix. Notre barmaid, Christina, était très sympathique & professionnelle. Je le recommande vivement.

Un bar très convivial où les serveurs sont adorables, au petit soin avec nous. Ils sont de très bon conseil en vin. Les plats sont excellents, gros coup de coeur pour le crudo de dorade.

N'allez pas manger là-bas. C'est que pour pour prendre un verre peut-être, c'est bien un bar & non un restaurant. Ils appellent « plat » de la nourriture plus petite qu'un snack. Néanmoins c'était très bon mais très très très cher pour ce que c'est. C'est aussi très bruyant.
