I really loved my experience at Le Violon. From customer service to the food to the vibe.
The staff were very friendly & helpful. Loved the interior design & the atmosphere.
The food was excellent. We had the sourdough bread with butter & the beef tartare for appetizers. The beef tartare was delicious. & the lamb chops were so well cooked & were definitely the highlight.
Very much recommended!View more
One of the top restaurants I have ever been to. The menu is seasonal, varied, & perfectly seasoned. I have found some other restaurants may be heavy handed with salt/sweetness/acidity, but bravo to Le Violon for finding the right balance & made each dish shine with perfect execution. We had the tasting menu & found dishes to be creative, comforting & very enjoyable. Thank you for a memorable experience!View more
For being one of Canada's top eats this year, I'm surprised it fell so short for us. We had a reservation for 9:30PM on a Monday night, arrived 5 mins early, & weren't seated until 9:50. The host was kind & offered us champagne while we waited though. We got the Cara Cara, raw beef, seabream, gnocchi, & mille feuille. Everything was above average except for the seabream, which is unfortunate because I wanted the monkfish but they were sold out. When it was served, the server explicitly mentioned that it was fully deboned (unless there was a misunderstanding or language confusion), but for a third of the dish, I kept running into bones. My third mouthful had so many bones I had to run to the WC to spit it out. When we told our server this, they took this item off our bill which was very kind. They also offered to make us another plate, but it was getting late. Overall, the food was done well, just not mind-blowing.View more
Food was great, tartare was delicious. Would recommend the affogato tiramisu for dessert. Very creative options. Ambiance is nice, staff are very friendly & attentive.View more
Tendance à overbooker. Sûrement victimes de leur succès. On s'est fait ¨gentiment¨déplacer à l'extérieur après 2 heures de repas, juste avant le dessert à une table improvisée à l'extérieur sur le trottoir car terrasse inexistante. Ils avaient besoin de la table pour un autre groupe à l'intérieur. On a gentiment collaboré vue que la nourriture était vraiment exceptionnelle. Honnêtement tout était bon.View more
Attiré par sa place de #1 au Canada's 100 best restaurant nous sommes allés hier & le moins qu'on puisse dire c'est que c'était une soirée splendide. Les plats étaient beaux, les saveurs recherchées, les ingrédients frais & goûteux. Bref tout ce qu'on recherche quand on met une somme non négligeable dans une soirée au restaurant.
Si vous décidez d'y aller, je vous suggère de manger au bar, vous aurez en plus le plaisir de converser avec des gens qui font le service avec un grand sourire & un professionnalisme exceptionnel !
Attention cependant, le restaurant peut être un peu bruyant donc si vous aimez les ambiances plus paisible ça peut être un peu dérangeant. Sinon c'est un restaurant à essayer (& adopter) au plus vite !View more
Disappointing experience. Hollandaise sauce on asparagus & lobster appetizer was bland & insufficient. Mains: only 2 lamb chops, overcooked, on peas, served on a salad plate was uninspired. A minuscule offering for a main course. Guinea fowl on sauce with spinach leaves on top was tasty but nothing else on plate. Shared Mille feuille for dessert was good but very small for $14.View more
J'avais beaucoup d'attente sur ce restaurant.
Plat bistronomique plus que gastronomique.
Service comme nourriture correct mais pas de quoi garder un souvenir inoubliable.
J'ai mangé une pintade en ballottine & épinard … beau travail sur la ballottine, un peu moins sur l'épinard qui consistait à étaler de simples feuilles sur les ballotines (le travail sur la ballottine semblait avoir été d'un tel effort que l'épinard a dû être sacrifié).
En accompagnement, une salade verte… 21$ & je ne suis pas regardante sur les prix… mais à ce prix la on s'attend à avoir un minimum de travail dessus … c'était une simple salade avec vinaigrette (comme à la maison!)
Le dessert un affogato tiramisu qui en fait était une glace au café ni plus ni moins …
Bref un bon restaurant sans plus (en comparaison j'ai mieux mangé au Pégase & pour bien moins cher), du mal à comprendre les avis dithyrambiques que j'ai lu avant d'y aller ! Expérience qui nous a permis néanmoins d'accorder nos violons (Mon avis était partagé avec les personnes m'accompagnant)View more
Loved our experience at Le Violon. We had to wait 10 minutes for our table but the host made sure we were comfortable outside & checked in on us a few times. Enjoyed all our dishes - sourdough bread & butter, citrus (cara cara) salad, asparagus/lobster with hollandaise, seabream & affogato tiramisu. Standout was for sure the affogato tiramisu - the perfect blend of creamy, rich & sweet with a delicious note of bitterness from the coffee. A week later & I'm still thinking about it! The lobster was also some of the best I've ever had. Service was excellent & atmosphere lovely.View more
Andrew is very knowledgeable & friendly. Food is on point, can't go wrong no matter what you choose. Try the zamalek, better version of coke.View more

Gastronomic pleasure! Portions are meant to be shared. Portions are on the smaller side, but definitely worth the Experience.View more
No wonder Le violon is #1 in Montreal. Fantastic service, every single dish was carefully plated & tasted amazing! The portion sizes were perfect. The attention to detail is second to none, amazing kitchen & service!View more
Absolutely fabulous meal & service. Great cocktails & deep wine list. We had the chef's tasting menu featuring highlights of menu & some special additions. We were treated as royalty. Great service & an amazing dining experience.View more
Really beautiful spot for a date night. The staff were all so friendly & the ambiance of the restaurant was amazing. Really great music & lighting. The cocktails are amazing. Highly recommend!View more
Le Violon was a spectacular dining experience all every level & well worth it recently been called the best new restaurant in Canada by Canada's 100 Best! The'Seabream with English Peas & Beurre Blanc' absolutely blew my mind, & the'Raw Beef with Bulgur, Tahini, Green Sauce, & Birri Tomatoes' is a must that packs a punch of flavour. Try the delightfully surprising flavour combinations of'Blood Orange with Fennel, Zachary Cloutier, & Marcona'! The service goes above & beyond the call of duty, & the atmosphere is warm & cosy. I will return!!!View more
