Le Serpent was an incredible experience from start to finish. We sat at the bar, which created a very intimate & comfortable atmosphere. The team was attentive, warm, & knowledgeable - especially our server, who was exceptionally well versed in the wine menu & guided us toward great pairings.

The food itself was outstanding. The octopus was tender & flavourful, the pasta was fresh & beautifully executed, & the fish - seared to absolute perfection - was one of the highlights of the night. Portion sizes were generous, & the pricing felt very fair for the quality & craftsmanship of the dishes.

A fantastic dining experience overall. We're already excited to return!

Perfect food with knowledgeable & welcoming staff.
Excellent atmosphere, with interesting'Industrial Pea Pod' light fixtures, & some great pipe-work art above the bar area. Not too noisy.

We went with the large group, & it was an extremely nice experience. The dishes came out at just the right time.

Entrées were good, but main courses were outstanding. For the overall price though, service was not incredible (at the bar). As a couple times for the drinks, & no more water a couple times & had to ask for more multiple times too. It's fine normally, but at the price point of the place, it makes it feel overpriced.

We sat at the bar. We don't remember her name to be honest. Extremely real. Not an NPC. Amazing suggestions. We were in Montreal for 6 days. We haven't felt more seen than being here. The food, the conversations, expertise. You need to come, & you will LOL. 10/10

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

J'ai passé une très belle soirée assise au bar avec une copine. Philippe a eu une belle attention pour nous à notre arrivée. Livia nous a offert un fabuleux service. De beaux échanges avec le reste du staff dont Claudine & Eric. Il faut toujours s'asseoir au bar! ;) Nous avons bien mangé & bien bu. Chaleureux & accueuillant!

Just came back from a lunch date with my wife & our experience at Le Serpent was filled with mixed feelings. On the one hand, the meal in & of itself, was delicious, colourful & well plated. The flavours were fantastic! We ordered the pieuvre as a starter which melted in your mouth. Then I ordered the lobster risotto with mascarpone, which was by far one of the best risotto's I have ever eaten & my wife ordered the salmon confit with lentils... Just melted in your mouth.

Now for the serving staff... The service was slow, we had to refill our own water glasses several times & the waiter didn't seem to interested in checking in on us once we ordered. A real shame, since the food was devine when it did come, but the poor service unfortunately takes away from the overall experience.

The worst part of the meal: As my wife was eating, she bit into a piece of salmon & something crunched between her teeth. She took it out of her mouth, placed it on the table & we both analyzed this clear, tiny piece of... GLASS?! Could it be? We looked at it carefully to make sure it wasn't just a piece of corse salt & so we tried to see if it would dissolve or break apart & it did not. I called the waiter over to tell him he should let the chef know to be careful, as perhaps a glass may have broke near my wife's dish when plating it. The waiter was surprised then quickly came back with a handful of white salt & tried to sell us on the idea that it was just a piece of salt. Let me tell you, it was not a piece of salt! It was a shard of glass & he tried to insult me & my wife's intelligence! I didn't as for a comp or anything at all & only wanted him to advise the chef as a precaution, but the blatant insult from this horrible waiter was completely disrespectful & unnecessary. The Chef should seriously revise his staff, as he is producing a very good quality product, but the people he has up front will ruin his perfectly good business.

Then, on the way out, the bar keep tells us, "we apologize for the misunderstanding... I assure you we would not have served you glass." What a complete asshole! I guess you can't teach class. A normal thing to do in such a situation would have been simply to apologize, maybe have the chef come over to say hello & check on us... There wasn't even a need for any type of comp... But a sincere, "sorry that happened, I hope it didn't ruin your experience here..." would have been well appreciated. Well, guess what, now even our friends heard about the unpleasant, classless event of today's lunch & it tarnishes a perfectly good place to eat.

My suggestion to the chef... Get more professional employees that have some basic etiquette & class.
