Le Vin Papillon

From start to finish the service, atmosphere (even amid the pouring rain), & seasonal menu are above & beyond Our server was very attentive & helped us choose very interesting wines that paired with the meal absolutely perfectly - the complexity of the wine evolved with the meal, in unexpected ways The plates not only came out quickly (within minutes after ordering), but used unexpected combinations such as radish with the most buttery biscuit you'll ever taste. For a party of 4 we had 9 dishes total, plus 3 desserts The difference between a great restaurant & a good restaurant leaves you thinking about the interplay between the flavors of the dish long after you leave, versus serving flavorful dishes you may have enjoyed before. This is a great restaurant. Many thanks to the staff here for such a great evening.

Uninspiring! Do not understand the hype of this place. Only had three nights in Montreal & was extremely let down by spending a dinner here. Food was very underwhelming, the squash was watery & bland. The dishes were not well thought out. So many items were smoked, there are other techniques to make food interesting. Lacked diversity & imagination. Felt like I was eating random sides that had nothing to do with one another. I ate at Monarque the night before & Damas the night after, both were much better dining experiences! Ordered several dishes, didn't enjoy any of them. Searched for another place to go afterwards...

I had reservations on a Saturday night. We had to wait around 20 minutes before we were seated. Parking is not the easiest in this area but there are some paid parking lots you can use. We tried a bunch of different plates. As we are not huge wine people, we let our waitress help us pick out one that would go well with what we were eating. We really enjoyed the selection & the service was great. Despite the delayed start, the food & service was quick afterwards. Not sure I would visit again but was nice to experience it once.

cozy, chic, rustic atmosphere that goes perfectly with the petits plats of the evening. this is one of my top spots in the city. great shareable plates & the wine is fantastic. vibes are immaculate inside & great service. we got the bread, shaved ham, broccolini, scallops, steak & mushrooms & it was all fantastic. same owners as liverpool house & how beef which are both phenomenal too.

Je dois être honnête avec cette critique, si vous désirez bien manger, vous êtes au bon endroit. Beau plat à partager, plusieurs choix dans la fraîcheur, legumes, viandes sont incroyables. Par contre soyez avisé que votre serveuse vous avisera dès le début que vous devez quitter la table après 2 heures..... Nous étions 4, nous avions une réservation à 19: 30 & elle nous a clairement indiquer qu'a 21;30 il y avait un autre service & ce avant même de commander notre premier verre...Nous nous sommes senti très précipiter & la serveuse nous avisait que nous avions du retard dans nos choix si on pensait prendre un dessert..... De plus, j'ai réserve un mois en avance en demandant une table sur la terrasse arrière & nous ne l'avons pas eu. J'ai réitérer ma demande & j'ai reçu une des air bête les plus sauvage jamais eu en restauration. Pour une facture à 4 de 660.00$, malheureusement je m'attends à recevoir un service impeccable. Ce ne fut pas le cas. Bravo au gens en cuisine pour l'excellence des plats mais pour le service, un léger recardèrent est de mise... Ce fut la première visite & ce sera aussi la dernière...

Last two visits here have been terribly mediocre. Smaller plates than before, Wine by the glass very disappointing & very lacklustre service. This used to be in my top three restaurants. I'll take a break & revisit one day... but honestly feel the bang for buck is no longer here. This restaurant is coasting too easily imo. Nearly no air conditioning on the bar side & very slow staggered service.

I visited while on a work trip & sat at the bar. The bartender was excellent! The service in general was great, & it was such a cute environment. The wine list is unique & the dishes I tried were really good, especially the rabbit sausage. Perfect place to share small plates with friends.
