Arguably the best meal I've had in Montreal as a seasonal resident. Ended on an awkward note because the service was so slow that we ultimately didn't get dessert, but everything to that point was immaculately detail-oriented, prepared with care & bursting with flavor. Short rib was killer. Branzino was fully de-boned & topped w amazing morel mushrooms. Zucchini flowers stuffed with cod as the appetizer was elite. This place has a Michelin star coming in the future. Interior is industrial+minimalistic with cool art.

Un excellent restaurant situé dans Griffintown. La décoration industrielle est magnifique, la nourriture est délicieuse, le cocktail à la coriandre est sublime & le service d'Eric était impeccable! Nous y retournerons assurément!

Soirée convivial durant laquelle Livia & Claudine nous ont apprêter à de belles discutions.
Les entrées & les plats sont subliment réalisé avec un équilibre vraiment contrôlé !
Coup de coeur pour le trio de crudo & le tartare de boeuf & sa burratina !
Merci pour cette soirée,
A bientôt !

Quality of the dish was amazing. We love the presentation. There were four of us for a business meal. We ordered most of the menus & few season items pairing with wine for white & red were both amazing. Definitely recommend visiting here again. One thing we want to try would be the main menus as we shared the Bronzino & the steak & she appetizers. Desserts were very nice as well. recommend booking on advance

We had a strange experience at le serpent. They received us very well & took us to our table without any delays. We were not really hungry so we decided to share. Tje waiter came & was very friendly & nice. She took our order & someone else brought the first course. But it was coordinated with our waiter so when this person brought us the first course, she showed up & brought an additional plate so we could easily share. The octopus was great but veeeery small portion. Then we asked for a risotto that was also good, not great, we come from an italian family & really have had great rissottos. The waiter againg came to our table & was very friendly. But when the time of the dessert came she disappiered. I mean she was in other tables but never came back to ours. Someone else did. That change was strange because she was doing great & it was almost at the end of the meal. In summary, food was good, not great, service until that change was great, the change made it good, & the plave was a little loud. I would comeback anyway.

Food was good, but they don't seem to like solo diner. They were not rude, but I was seated at bar, & they kept squeezing people next to me while there more vacant seats

Very good & in a good location in Montreal. Special appetizer asparagus was outstanding - as was the burrata beef tartare appetizer. Mains Risotto & Venison were good too but the appetizers really shined.

Le Serpent est dans le top 10 des meilleurs établissements en ville & ce n'est pas pour rien. La carte est à couper le souffle & très bien réfléchit & le personnel probablement le plus compétent sur l'île. Ce que j'ai particulièrement apprécié c'est le niveau de la musique qui était bas, donc nous pouvions discuter ! Autour de 150$ par personne avec deux verre de vin, stationnement intérieur payant autour. Je recommande ! Merci Mike & toute l'équipe 😍

Rien à dire sur le menue des vins/boisson & sur le service, le personnel était super agréable & efficace . Niveau présentation ça laissait vraiment à désirer surtout l'entrée de crudo qui est servie avec cuillère alors qu'il n'y a aucune sauce de plus que les morceaux de poisson était plus épais que nécessaire & les assaisonnement était décevant. Nous avons pris quatre entrées & un plat principal pour être déçus autant par les textures que par les assaisonnement. Je déconseille, surtout pour le fait que à ce prix là on peut avoir de bien meilleur résultat pour y retrouver une ambiance similaire.
