Le Violon propose une expérience culinaire sophistiquée largement saluée pour ses menus dégustation créatifs, son service exceptionnel et son ambiance à la fois vibrante et élégante. De nombreux clients considèrent ce restaurant comme une destination incontournable à Montréal, louant tout particulièrement la qualité des fruits de mer, les gnocchis et des desserts mémorables. Bien que la grande majorité des convives décrivent leur passage comme une expérience fabuleuse, certains avis soulignent que le niveau sonore peut rendre les conversations difficiles et que les prix semblent élevés par rapport à la taille des portions. Malgré quelques avis partagés concernant le rapport qualité-prix et une certaine inconstance dans le service, le consensus demeure que l'établissement est une adresse de choix portée par une équipe passionnée et accueillante.
I went to Le Violon in Montreal & the food was absolutely amazing. Everything was flavorful & beautifully done. Such a great spot - I'd definitely come back!
From start to finish everything was excellent. We asked Dylan to give us the Le Violon experience in selecting the appetizers & entrees. He did not miss, it was spot on with the lobster & persimmons appetizers with the fleur des monts cheese. Followed by the beef flank & trout entrees…not great but stupendous. Thank you Dylan. Thank you Andrew for the warm greeting & chat as we left. Priceless! Highly, highly recommended….see you in December!
Too much inconsistency in the quality of the dishes, some were thoughtful & well prepared, others were lacking in execution. Some awkward service moments. Wanted to like it but left disappointed!

Had an absolutely beautiful meal here last night. Services was on point & the food was excellent. A seat along the bar on the left side is fun as there's a great view of the kitchen. Better than the food though was the atmosphere. I noted on the way out that everyone was always smiling, & having a seat with a full on kitchen view, the chefs / cooks were as well. Everyone working in this restaurant seemed legit happy to be there & that makes all the difference. Amazing space as well, looking forward to heading back.
This was one of the best eating experiences we have had, ever, & we've been to some amazing restaurants like French Laundry, Alinea, Mon Lapin (just recently!), Septime, Parcelles, etc. The food was incredible, the service was excellent (thank you Gabriel & host!) & a lively yet not overly loud environment. We opted for the tasting menu & each dish was just sooooo delicious. The flavours were amazing. To me, the mark of over-the-top delicious food is when I am served a product that I typically do not enjoy. I do not like to eat anchovies & yet their stracciatella with white anchovies was just heavenly. I do not like to eat tartares & yet their beef tartare was delicious & delightful. Even their salad of fennel, radicchio, & greens was dressed to perfection. We came to Montreal to celebrate my birthday & Le Violon was definitely the highlight of our trip! Thanks for a great experience!!!
Food was amazing! Service was good! The ambience was perfect. Enjoyed every bite & sip of our meal & will definitely come back! 10/10 would recommend!!
Such a lovely dining experience. The staff is experienced & informative when it comes to describing each dish. The monkfish was fabulous 👌🏾 Get there early because parking can be difficult to find.
My husband & I came here to celebrate our 10th anniversary. Food was exquisite, & service was attentive without being overbearing. The staff are young, but knowledgeable & passionate about what they do - a delight! We loved the lobster, braised leeks & hollandaise, as well as the blue fin tuna bruschetta & squid & mussel escabeche - but the hand pulled ricotta gnocchi Boscaiola was the absolute star of the night. Rounded out the evening with espresso, Valhrona Basque cake & the Peaches Eton mess, followed by a tipple of Amaro generously offered by the chef. The decor was elegant, spare, but still cosy. Chef Danny Smiles & his team have created a complete gem. Outstanding & highly recommend!
