We celebrated my spouses birthday & all went off without any issues great food, excellent service & nice atmosphere i would highly recommend this restaurant & gluten free option is available for certain dishes
Our best dining experience in the last 12 months.
This restaurant is QUIET. What a welcome change from the usual where you can't even hear your own thoughts let alone your companions voice!
Charming, unassuming artwork-adorned atmosphere in an old house. Beautiful.
Service was impeccable- there when they ought to be & not there otherwise. Perfect timing on everything from ordering to service.
Portion sizes were perfect as well with amuse-bouche & palate cleanser served without needing to order. Just perfect. Warm goat cheese with walnuts was delicious!
The chateaubriand was cooked to perfection. The molten chocolate cake rich & not too sweet. The only reason I didn't rate food 5 stars was the vegetables - the potato's & green beans were simply steamed - a little boring & plain. But the mushrooms were excellent!
There were many items on this menu that I'd choose ; we will definitely return to this resto within the next 3 months & highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys classic cuisine in a peaceful atmosphere. Perfect date night spot.

This restaurant has been our regular haunt for the past 26 years. Always has wonderful food, & a warm fireplace in the winter months to add to the ye olde world cozy atmosphere. A veranda section is equally great in summer or winter. Their Bistro menu makes it reasonably affordable, but does not compromise on quality of the cuisine as is offered on their a la carte, both of which have always been most enticing. Last night's experience was equally enjoyable with my two French guests, whose culinary senses were fully satisfied with the main course of pork with camembert & apple sauce, & cuts of beef beautifully presented, accompanied with a nice bottle of the house Bordeaux, followed by their killer profiteroles, & mi-cuit de chocolat as finishing desserts! Highly recommended for anyone who likes a great night out, one you will remember for a long time to come.
We were a group of 14 celebrating a special birthday. Everything was perfect. I love that there restaurant is divided into different rooms so we had a space all to ourselves. Service was perfect - the waitress was wonderful - patient, smooth & she made her job look effortless . We had what we needed. Everything was beautifully presented & very tasty. The fixed menu option had so many choices - everyone was happy.
Highly recommended.
We live in Ottawa, but for many years now we have come to Le Surcouf for my husbands Birthday dinner in June, usually with some friends. We have traveled a lot in our business life, but Le Surcouf remains one of our most favourite Restaurants, one that checks all the boxes for Food, Service, Atmosphere & Price.
5*****All the Way - Highly recommended!!
Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, Quebec H9X 1L5) - is a place where the dreams of gourmets & lovers of a refined atmosphere come true! ✨
Today I finally visited this, in my opinion, legendary restaurant. Before this, I had several unsuccessful attempts to reserve a table for the dates I wanted, but unfortunately, it was always fully booked. & today I succeeded. 😊
What can I say? A very, very beautiful interior, creating a feeling of luxury & coziness at the same time. Many paintings, beautiful furniture, truly interesting French music that perfectly complements the atmosphere. 🎶
The waiters are friendly, very hospitable, they know the menu inside & out & can perfectly pair drinks with any dish, making the choice even more enjoyable. 🍷
The food is magnificent, each dish is a work of art. The presentation truly deserves a separate compliment, & the flavors are simply fire! 🔥 Special thanks to the chef for their mastery. 👨?🍳
In short, I am very happy to have visited this restaurant, & I highly recommend it if you want to taste outstanding French cuisine & enjoy an unforgettable evening. 👍
Went with friends to celebrate our birthdays & Le Surcouf made it very special. The food was excellent, service top notch & atmosphere very cozy with the fireplace, especially on a cold Montreal night! We highly recommend Le Surcouf & shall be back!
