All in all, we were satisfied with the food. The crab cakes were a little disappointing ! I would not recommend this appetizer as they did not stand out in any way. The main dishes were all great : salmon tartare was perfectly seasoned + came with a choice of either green salad, French fries or veggie of the day (which was green beans : the waiter suggested a green bean salad). The option of a different side for the tartare was very refreshing & the green bean salad complemented the tartare very well ! The scallop main dish was filling enough which sometimes isn't the case depending on portion sizes ! The grilled beef hanger steak was quite good & came with enough fries for 4 people ! Finally, special mention to the salted butter served with fresh baguette as we waited for the food to arrive. That butter was creamy & flavourful, one of the best butters I have had in Montréal so far !! Great atmosphere, great waiter, great attention to our table & needs throughout the evening 🌃 Thanks Lemeac 😊
A delicious meal, wonderful environment, easily the best part of our experience was our server Lisa. She was so helpful & kind & such a pleasant part of our dinner.
We went there tonight relying on the positive reviews but were disappointed. Food was not bad, but not great either. I would say every dish was 3 out of 5. Service was also sloppy- but it might have been a new waiter, so that's ok. It was our first night in Montreal. Hope we will be luckier tomorrow at Joe Beef.
I love this restaurant. Equally fantastic for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Food is delicious, great drinks (try the old fashion - I'm obsessed), impeccable service. The restaurant is very cute & has very clean washrooms.

Highly recommend this place. Their Mediterranean fish soup is full of flavors. Their escargots with basil sauce is like a piece of art & it tastes delicious. The manager & the wait staff were all very friendly & professional. They just want their guests to enjoy the meal & have a good time.

For a restaurant that is very famous in Montreal, the service should be better. There is a snobby attitude from staff, very unattractive when you come to sit at a nice expensive restaurant. The food is very good, but very overpriced. Not worth the price, but they won't lower it or care because they are popular. I recommend it, but I think there is better restaurants in Montreal in terms of service & quality/price.
Leméac had been on my list for ages, & I finally had the chance to experience it for myself. There's nothing like catching up with a friend over great food & a relaxing atmosphere. The service was friendly & attentive, although there was a mix-up with our order-we received two of the same dish instead of the two different dishes we requested- they ended up replacing the wrong dish. Despite this, the waitress was kind & friendly, & we never felt rushed, to finish or harry up, which was a nice bonus. As for the food, my friend opted for the Poached Eggs with Smoked Salmon & Spanish Caviar on Blinis, while I chose the Salmon Gravlax with Nordic Shrimp, Caraway Bread, & Cucumber Salad, along with a side of Fingerling Potatoes & Homemade Doughnuts. Everything was fresh & well prepared. While I personally preferred my friend's dish, that's just a matter of taste; there was nothing to fault in the food itself. The potatoes were crispy, & the doughnuts were delightfully fluffy. I believe I will be going back soon but this time to try the dinner menu.
Nous avons détesté ce resto. Ayant une allergie alimentaire il n'y a rien sur le menu que le chef a accepté de modifier. J'ai finalement pris le croustillant de chèvre qui fut le pire plat jusqu'à ce jour. Une galette de chèvre sans goût panée avec une panure sans goût avec 3 noix de Grenoble au fond de l'assiette & dessus un tas de feuilles sans saveur pour 24$... omg j'aurais fait mieux moi-même à la maison. J'ai demandé un cocktail estival avec de petits fruits étant l'été & en pleine saison & on m'a répondu on n'a pas cela. Choix de boisson basic & sans goût. Ambiance musique classique rien de wow. On ne va jamais y retourner.
