Soirée passée au bar même si nous avions réservé une table. Bonne ambiance mais serveur le semblait blasé. Plats corrects mais le rapport qualité/prix n'y était pas. Les rillettes semblaient avoir été faites très longtemps d'avance avec une énorme couche de gras sur le dessus & la bavette était minuscule. Ce fut une expérience moyenne.View more

This is my first french bistro experience. The staff gets very busy, so make sure you book in advance. There's no lunch menu or late night menu that are offered elsewhere. I ordered a snow crab soup which is a local dish & beef tartare which is a classic. The soup has phenomenal flavor & all the ingredients are well-balanced. The tartare is also decent, although my palette would like more seasoning. Every place has their own version of the tartare, so this is likely just my personal preference. Overall this is an amazing experience in Montreal & worth the little dent they put on your wallet.View more

We love the relaxed vibe. Grilled quail was one of the best we've had, & the raw beef was refreshing.View more

The food was amazing here. It was very busy, yet we were sitting in under 10 minutes. Nonetheless, we got our orders fairly quickly.View more

Awesome dining experience here. My friend & I both got the steak frites, which were delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly & topped with a great herb butter while the fries were hot & crisp. My friend got a salad that tasted fresh & was a good opener. We also split some of their profiteroles for dessert, & those were extremely tasty. Would recommend.View more

Nous sommes venus pour la première pour fêter notre anniversaire. Le service était excellent, les serveurs très gentils & au petit soin. Mon mari a pris le canard confit & j'ai choisit les moules/frites. L'expérience était très bonne mais nous avons été déçu par le plat du canard confit qui était certes excellent mais en très petite quantité - notamment sur l'accompagnement où trois patates se battaient en duel sur 3 feuilles de salade ... Pourtant nous avions regardé le menu au préalable avec les photos des commentaires précédents...View more

C'était ma première fois à L'Express & c'était formidable. Normalement je n'aurais pas pris le foie de volaille & les rognons, mais mon serveur Stephane a sut comment me convaincre & j'ai bien aimé. Merci beaucoup pour ce service legendaire 🙏View more
