Loved their bread, beetroot salad & chicken liver pate. Will be coming back to try sorrel soup & a few other dishes. Really appreciate that they are open late

On revient à l'Express pour retrouver les classiques des mythiques brasseries parisiennes. Après toutes ces visites à l'Express, je n'ai jamais été déçu. Ce soir, j'ai opté pour le potage à l'oseille, la mousse de foies de volaille aux pistaches, les raviolis maison & pour dessert, les profiteroles à l'érable. Comme toujours, j'ai bien apprécié mon repas & en plus, j'ai eu droit à un service attentionné & respectueux ainsi qu'à de judicieux conseils de la part de Jacques, le barman. Jacques m'a recommandé une chartreuse jaune qui termine très bien un repas & que j'ai beaucoup apprécié.

This is a very famous French restaurant in montreal. Strongly recommend to stop by!
No sign was seen, so you may need to look at the map carefully to find this place. The menu was written with a script that I was not able to read well, so I chose my menu from Google review pictures.
It is a busy place, I didn't expect to be very kind service. But they served better than I expected ^^
I couldn't make a reservation for our party, which was 3. (Recommed to make a reservation 1 or 2 weeks before you go for the dinner)Then I just walked in at their opening time. It worked. We could have seated at the bar.
The dress code was not mandatory. That worked for tourists.
I live in New York. None of the places can really beat the prices. For me, the food prices were very gernerous compared to its popularity.

Lieu très agréable & vivant. Une super viande : j'ai rarement vu une aussi grosse pièce dans un restaurant. Cuisson parfaite

Bewildered as to why this place gets the hype that it does.

Started with Fish Soup. It was a tomato puree with maybe fish blended into it? There was fish flavor, but at close to $20, it would have been nice to see actual chunks of fish in it & a much better flavor.

The baguette served tasted of poor quality or it was just old. Butter was hard. No bread plate so you just get the table full of crumbs.

I ordered the housemade ravioli, which was bland. I could tell that the ingredients were legit, but there was no flavor...just a concentrated meat flavor. Luckily there was a pepper grinder on the table. How about some tarragon? Or just even parsley? This dish was almost $30 as was forgettable.

Service was painfully slow, so we skipped dessert & got out of there. I have no idea why this place is highly recommended. Save yourself the disappointment & go anywhere else. The prices vs quality/flavor as not in your favor.

Okay good. Not worth the price that you will be paying for it. The wine was the best thing we ordered during our lunch.
