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.
We spent our anniversary here last week & the service was amazing, great recommendations from the waitress to try a variety of dishes which were all incredibly tasty & savoury. The wine selection was great & very fair priced. Definitely recommend the foie gras, & filet mignon. Loved our experience & we will definitely return.
We had the scallops & rack of lamb. The seared foie gras was expensive (even for here) but very different & tasty. The escargots were also very good. Not a cheap dinner, but a great place to treat yourself once in a while. No cheap wines on this winelist. The daily specials would be be cheaper.

A restaurant that has stood the test of time for over 50 years … How ? By providing an Exceptional Food Wine & Service in a quiet welcoming atmosphere.
Everything was perfect ! Flavourful dishes , outstanding wine list & attentive personalized service. Thank you .. Looking forward to our next visit !
The seared foie gras a 10/10, everything I dreamt of, one of the best. However, it all went downhill from there.
The fries that came out with the beef tartare were incredibly soggy & gross. Every single fry was an inch long or less, as if someone had scrounged up all the disgusting leftover bits in oil that should have been thrown in the trash. Not ok.
Long after I was done with my meal, the waitress said that's how the fries normally are, & that they may have just used smaller potatoes. Lol. Never saw her after that, other than when she walked by & just cleared my glass of wine away without asking if I'd like another or if I'd like dessert/the bill.
I asked for my check from the hostess as the waitress acknowledged every table around me, except for mine, & I proceeded to wait 20 min without any help. I literally had to get up from my seat & wait at the hostess stand to pay & leave. The service literally pissed me off & left a horrible taste.
We've dined at Le Surcouf many times before & have always enjoyed the food & atmosphere. That's why we chose it as the place to celebrate our wedding anniversary with friends. Unfortunately, the service during this visit was far below the standard we've come to expect.
From the beginning of the evening, it felt as though our table had been forgotten. It took quite a while for anyone to bring us menus or a wine list. Once we ordered, the appetizers arrived & were excellent-beautifully presented & full of flavor. The main courses were also delicious, with one exception: my friend's lamb, ordered medium, arrived nearly raw-far closer to blue than rare. She's not picky, but this was clearly undercooked. It took some time to flag someone down to return it to the kitchen, & we noticed another table nearby also sending their meat back.
Dessert was enjoyable, but our coffees were brought to us afterward & served lukewarm. After finishing, we asked for the bill-but again, we were left waiting. We had to ask three different staff members before my husband eventually got up to find someone. He discovered the staff gathered in the back, drinking. When we finally received the bill, the waiter offered only a weak apology & questioned who we had spoken to earlier. I simply told him this wasn't the level of service we were used to, especially for a special occasion. He said nothing in response.
We still appreciate the food & the setting at Le Surcouf, but this experience was disappointing. We hope this was an off night & not a sign of declining standards.We have been to the Surcouf many times in the past.
It was clear that no one on staff knew who was responsible for our table. Throughout the evening, we were approached by five different people, none of whom seemed to be communicating with each other. At a restaurant known for its typically high standards of service, this lack of coordination was especially disappointing.
Every time that we visit Le Surcouf we are treated to wonderful experience. All the staff are attentive, efficient & courteous - a very professional team. The meal preparation is outstanding & the presentations are beautiful. The wine list is extensive & unique. When we are looking for a special dinner out, are number one choice is Surfouf & they always make the event special.

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.
Excellent food...excellent service.........excellent price.... excellent atmosphere. The Bistro menu & wine selection is not to be beat, excellent value. The conclusion......SIMPLY EXCELLENT !
Homey setting, classic French offerings, great service, food & wine offerings are delightful. There is a lot to be said about having properly trained servers & wait staff, it makes all the difference (of course the food has to be up to par as well).
We really enjoyed our visit to Le Surcouf on Saturday, March 1st.
We started our culinary experience with complimentary zucchini quiche, followed by creamed mushroom soup (soup of the day), fois gras & lobster bisque. After which we had an apple sorbet to cleanse our palates. Main course consisted of rack of lamb & Flambéed pepper filet mignon. Desserts included:
Baba au Rhum, Crème Brûlée & Vanilla profiteroles in chocolate sauce. Wine list was varied & chose Massimago Mariabella 2022 (Valpolicella Ripasso).
Ambiance was cozy & welcoming. Lighting was soft & inviting.
Highlight of decor was the promotion of local artists' work. Extra promotion of local artist work, on labels of house wines.
The restaurant was a bit expensive, but its excellent service was worth the price.
We would add a light background music to enhance the ambiance.
Well worth the visit. & we will definitely return!
Lovely bday dinner for a 92 year old birthday boy. Everything was perfect, from the wine to the dessert. I can always count on le Surcouf for a great dining experience.
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.

Amazing little gem of a restaurant. Great menu, exquisite atmosphere, & very friendly staff. We tried their bistro menu & it was very well balanced. Great selection of wine. We are so happy to have this restaurant in our neighbourhood.
Staff is great, food very ordinary, over priced, no presentation ,mashed potatoes, 2 bites & ur done,or 4 small round no seasoning potatoes, no effort, charge for bread, Why? How expensive is a baguette .several people at our table & all plates were just ok, on average with wine,entrée, 200$ per couple, meal should be an unforgettable meal. Tried it twice, last time, disappointed both times, pretty place,grounds at night ,nice.need to zazz & add taste to food.
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 😊
My wife & I had an absolutely wonderful evening at your restaurant last night!!! The food, wine list, service & ambiance were all outstanding & we are already looking forward to our next visit!!!!! Many thanks to everyone....
