In fall 2007, the chefs of Joe Beef restaurant opened a new restaurant, the Liverpool House, located next to the Atwater market and numerous antiquarians of Notre-Dame St. With a menu that changes every week, the Liverpool House offers seasonal dishes inspired by ingredients found in the market.
Overall, reviews portray Liverpool House as a refined yet welcoming spot with a warm, intimate atmosphere and a strong focus on bold flavors and careful technique. Diners repeatedly praise standout dishes such as beef tartare, steak frites, lobster pasta, and arctic char, along with reliable starters and desserts that elevate the meal. The beverage program is frequently highlighted, especially the wine and local beer options, which pair well with the menu. Service is described as attentive and knowledgeable on many visits, though several experiences note inconsistencies and occasional delays during busy periods. The setting is often lively but comfortable, with a terrace option and a vibe that can feel bustling or romantic depending on the night. Reservations are commonly advised, as tables fill up and some guests report longer waits or portions that fail to meet expectations for the price. If the kitchen or service falls short, pricing can feel steep, while many guests feel the quality justifies the cost on other nights. Although experiences vary, Liverpool House remains a top Montreal destination for a memorable, sophisticated dining experience.
This place & Joe Beef were recommended to us. We visited in summer 2024. Here are reviews in important areas of our dining experience. SERVICE We were early & requested a change to sit at the table rather than the bar. The request was accommodated with kindness, albeit a wait but communication brief & positive. Table service, fun, casual, professional with positive energy. FOOD We had oysters & special of the day scallops. Spaghetti lobster (the best!) & fish. Wine list by glass is good. dessert was good but not wow. AMBIENCE Lighting indoor seating is low. Music playlist is fun, modern & good choice. Service by the bar & staff were all jolly & positive hence it radiates good vibes.

My favorite restaurant in MTL, food is always amazing the Joe Beef collection of restaurants are a must visit. The wait staff are also amazing very accommodating. We got all the desserts... all amazing.
Unforgettable experience yet again! Shout out to the men behind the bar for bringing the fun & energy to our meal. Coming back to Liverpool House after 11 years to celebrate our Honeymoon was the best choice we could have made. The food was absolute perfection. Fresh, tasty, simple. We miss you already!

Nice atmosphere & above average service definitely. Fois gras with egg was at smallest possible size. Steak could be a bit larger but it can very I know, but fries were absolutely uneatable & salty. Cocktails were high quality.
I've had some amazing meals in my time & Liverpool house has delivered some of those amazing meals, the other night was no different. Highly recommended, from the service, food & ambiance, you can't get much better. We sat at the bar in front of 2 very friend friendly Chef's preparing desserts & salads, great lads with fun vibes. When the food started, our waitress (Cici sp?) was on high alert with knowing that she had a fun table ahead of her. She was attentive, highly educated in her food & wines as well as fun to interact with (thank you). From start to finish we were impressed. Thank you Liverpool House for such an incredible experience.
Our group of 12 got seated in the comfortable outside garden & we're well served a family style pre fixe. It was a long service with wine plentiful. The seafood & steak were stars along with the service.

The service here is the real standout. We sat at the bar & the bartender was fantastic. I do not drink so he made me a fun & delicious mocktail featuring some of my favorite flavors. He made great suggestions that added to our experience We ordered the specials of the day which were a halibut & artic cod with some fries & his suggestion. Which was the perfect amount of food. We also got the scallop special. All the food was flavorful. Would definitely come again if I'm on Montreal.
We weren't able to get a table at Joe Beef so we made a reservation at Liverpool House instead from our foodie friend's recommendation. Their Breakfast Sandwich was like a huge version of Egg Benedict. The Arctic Char was grilled perfectly & super tender.
I loved the fish omble chevalier, & the duck salad was delicious! The steak with the fries was very salty, unfortunately. The oysters from Québec were really good also. I loved the place in general. The service was excellent. It's just the extra salty steak that removed 1 star. But would definitely try it again!
another stunner restaurant by the joe beef group. all the dishes were so well prepared & gave you a sense of comfort from an elevated home cooked meal. we got the lobster bisque, skate wing special & the fish as well as the chocolate mousse & doughnut hole dessert. everything was amazing. vin papillon is still my fav but this is up there for top in the city.
