C'est un restaurant incroyable. Nous sommes arrivés sans réservation un vendredi soir, le personnel nous a fait une place pour commander un verre en attendant qu'une table se libère. Nous avons été placés rapidement! Le staff est très professionnel & courtois. Les plats sont pleins de saveurs & frais. Je recommande la pieuvre sans hésitation ainsi que la bisque en entrée. Vous ne serez pas déçue de ce restaurant.View more

Restaurant has been open for a long time & is a blend of classic French & Montreal fare. Food was amazing. Complimentary table gherkins with mustard was oddly delicious. Profiteroles for dessert were also a highlight.View more

By far one of the best restaurants in Montreal. Incredible French Bistro on St-Denis. The service is fantastic, the food is delicious, & the cozy atmosphere is immediately greets you.

Each table comes with complementary pickles, dijon mustard, & bread!

The duck & veal kidneys are a must have. Finally the Ile flottante dessert is massive, but delicious.View more

Très beau resto, on a beaucoup aimé les plats. Le boeuf était juteux & les frites étaient croustillantes & parfaitement salées. La serveuse était très gentille.View more

First time here with my wife , I've been here a few times already. The food is always good as usual, we did book online which made it quicker when we came in. My wife had the paysanne soup which wasn't famous to be honest . We both has the steak which was pretty good & the dessert that was delicious .View more

Dans l'ensemble, c'était bien. Le goût du poulet & du canard que nous avions choisis était très savoureux. Mais à mon avis, la salade que nous avions choisie n'avait pas de goût particulier & elle était trop salée.
En général, c'était une bonne expérience à essayeView more

We were told about this from some locals, I never would've recognized it from the street as a restaurant. It flies under the radar. Almost like it is hidden in plain sight. A real treasure.

It is so worth finding this place. The food was fabulous. The service is the most attentive I've seen in a very, very long time! & they clearly take pride in that service when you look at the wall of photos that shows the wait staff & culinary team that support this restaurant year after year after year!

I had the special that involved fish, & a gorgeous caper, butter, lemon sauce. They had no trouble working around an unusual allergy like garlic. Rather than telling me what limited options they could have, they told me to just tell them what I liked, & that they would adapt it… this is so very, very rare today, post pandemic.

Just know that if you order the floating caramel island dessert it is gigantic! & far more than you can consume, even between two people!View more

A wonderful neighbourhood restaurant. Having turned up on the wrong day, they went out of their way to save our evening & squeeze us in. I would have been so pleased just with anything ok after that, but the whole experience was exceptional. Wonderful service, wonderful French food, & a warm Friday evening neighbourhood vibe. Thank youView more
