Avec la venu de l'automne le retour du menu chasseur s'ajoute à la table d'hôte que le client peut créer à sa propre guise.

Le Surcouf se présente comme une gemme française du West Island, réputée pour une cuisine raffinée, des plats savoureux et magnifiquement présentés, et un service attentif dans une atmosphère chaleureuse et intime rappelant une ancienne demeure. L'ambiance est cosy avec cheminée en hiver et des espaces qui offrent calme et convivialité, tandis que la carte Bistro et les plats à la carte séduisent par leur cuisson précise, leurs sauces raffinées et leurs portions généreuses, accompagnés d'une belle sélection de vins à prix raisonnables. Les avis soulignent un personnel professionnel et attentionné, des occasions spéciales mémorables, et même une attention particulière pour les régimes sans gluten. Quelques remarques concernent le bruit lorsque la salle est pleine et, parfois, un service un peu plus lent, mais la constance de la qualité et le soin apporté à chaque détail font de Le Surcouf une adresse incontournable pour ceux qui recherchent une expérience gastronomique française authentique.
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 had excellent service. We had guest & they were very satisfied & pleasantly impressed with the quality & portion of the plates. No dessert necessary to fill us up. All I can say is the quality of the food is equal to the quality of the service. 5 stars all around. To repeat soon.

Another amazing dinner experience at this fantastic restaurant. With the owner always omnipresent & helping staff while making rounds from table to table, great service is assured. The cooking team is outstanding, putting out plate after plate of what is, in my opinion, Michelin quality food.
Although the wine selection is very respectable, the house wine is awesome.
Food ,service & attention to detail are all excellent. The bistro menu on weekdays maintains the quality at an affordable price. No background music is a plus.
Many smaller rooms means the noise level is much lower so you can enjoy you own conversation
Never been disappointed

We hadn't been in a couple of years although it was always a favourite. Glad to see the quality & service are still at 100%. These days it's not easy to find traditional French cuisine...everything is molecular this, gastronomic that... usually some celebrity chef-du-Jour showing off his cooking skills. But Le Surcouf remains true to its origins & purpose...outstanding traditional French cuisine. Sure, the flourishes & extra touches are there, but the backbone is wonderful taste sparing no expense in terrific ingredients. After all, where can you still get a whole sole Meunière, filleted & cleaned table-side. Or crepe suzettes flambeed before your eyes. Not that I mind creative cuisine, but it's always good to get back to the traditions that set the stage for everyone else. Le Surcouf is a West-Island gem that can compete with the best of downtown, & in a gorgeous setting. I needed smelling salts when I saw the bill, but it was worth it!

Pleasantly surprised by the choices in the menu, quality of food & very French dishes. Only reason not giving full 5 stars, welcome on arrival could be improved & the tuna tataki seemed not at its best but the rognon was quite good
We had a lovely meal here. Food was delicious, & very beautifully presented, service was exactly the right amount of attentive, & price was very good for the quality. We dined very early, so the place was pretty empty, but the overall ambience is relaxed but classy.
This place would be a hidden gem if it weren't for it's already well deserved reputation. Spectacular food & service. The private ambience makes for a fine dining experience focused on the food, wine. Fair value as well, considering the quality of the food.
I've been to Le Surcouf a few times over the years, & it's always a great experience. The cozy atmosphere is perfect for an intimate meal, & the service is consistently excellent. The owner is very present, visiting tables & adding to the general atmosphere of refined bonhomie. What the menu lacks in variety, they more than make up for in quality & as a fan of French cuisine, I'm always impressed with the dishes. You really can't go wrong with any choice on the menu. This is real gem on the West Island, & must-try at least once.

I have lived in the West Island for 17 years & only finally tried this place 😍 I can admit I have been missing out on such a gem! The food was delicious, the flavours were simple with such high quality. The atmosphere was so cosy & sophisticated & the service was lovely. Had a wonderful time. Their speciality wine is totally worth it!! Already excited to come & try more dishes 😊
Le Surcouf is our special place & it always excels, in ambiance, food quality, & service. The staff are so friendly & professional. Our meals were perfectly prepared & delicious.
The Service was great, I came here based on the Google reviews & I was let down. The food is way to overpriced, & the quality was below average. They did give one of our meals for free because my wife didn't touch it. Don't be fooled by all these Google reviews!
This restaurant has sadly dropped off in quality. It used to be fabulous. We went there last night for our 25th anniversary & what a disappointment. My husband's very well done filet mignon came medium & pink in the middle. I know it's hard for a chef but we even said butterfly it. My steak tartare was not pink. It was partially grey & no flavour- no capers or anything. I was asked if I wanted the spicy version & I said yes. I got a bland greyish unflavoured blob. No correction to the bill. My old fashioned was not made properly either.
Consistency in quality & service as good as you can get on the West point of the Island. Personnel is well trained & understand the higher standard & demand. It would be nice to have a wider choice of wines by the glass which can go with the wide range of food they offer.
Reservation required, especially on Saturday nights. The place was buzzing with every table occupied.
