Info & Location
Honorary president of the 2007 Montreal High Lights Festival, Chef Boulud has established ties and a longstanding affinity with Montreal. “I'm French by birth but have made North America my home for almost three decades. As a chef and restaurateur, my approach definitely bridges both European and North American traditions. This is not unlike what so appeals to me about Montreal, a city that embodies this mix of cultures perfectly and makes me feel I'm not far from my own home town of Lyon,” he added.

Our group of four enjoyed Sunday brunch we had tasty appetizers as well as several choices of entrees from eggs Benedictine with pork belly to Seabream fish. My strawberry tart for dessert was lovely & tasty however the pain Perdue was found to be disappointing. Ambiance & service was 5 stars. Not my my first visit nor will it be my last.View more

I didn't have high expectations for the hotel restaurant, but lunch turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The three-course menu was just $50 per person, which felt like great value.
The standout dishes were:
1. Chilled soup with honeydew melon & cucumber - light, refreshing, & perfectly balanced.
2. Catch of the day with artichoke purée, bok choy, & a virgin tomato-piquillo sauce - I was lucky it was sea bass, my favorite. The skin was perfectly crisp, & the fish itself was fresh & delicately seasoned.
It's not the most inventive menu, but the quality & price make it well worth trying.View more

Mes invités & moi nous sommes réunis au début de juin pour le déjeuner à la Maison Boulud. Je recommande au plus haut point cet établissement, qui allie perfection & raffinement gastronomique. Tous les plats que nous avons commandés - la dorade au premier chef - étaient exquis, avec une touche novatrice dans les accompagnements. Le service a été assuré par une équipe de professionnels, qui a su imprimer un rythme parfait tout au long de notre repas. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié les recommandations du sommelier qui a réussi un accord parfait entre les plats & les vins, & ce, en nous faisant découvrir des vins auxquels personne de notre groupe n'était familier. En résumé, le déjeuner à la Maison Boulud s'est révélé une magnifique expérience gastronomique. Merci à toute l'équipe!View more

Je veux vous écrire mon expérience à la Maison Boulud. Nous sommes allés souper le dimanche de Pâques pour le 75e anniversaire de ma chère mère. Très élégant & chaleureux avec foyer. Une très belle ambiance. On nous dirige vers l'arrière où c'est tout vitré & très charmant. Heureusement j'avais emporté mon veston car il faisait plutôt froid. On a dû demander de monter le chauffage car ce n'était vraiment pas agréable.
On prend trois entrées. Le potage était fade & mes escargots aussi. On demande du sel & du poivre pour réhausser le goût un peu. La salière & la poivrière étaient vides. Je tiens à mentionner aussi que mes escargots n'étaient pas tous cuits. C'est long à mâcher. La présentation par contre, fantastique.
Nos entrées principales. On était trois à prendre l'assiette de pétoncle. Personne de satisfait. C'est fade encore une fois & nos pétoncles ne sont pas cuites. En plus, sur mes deux pétoncles, il y en avait une qui goûtait le poisson. Pas très frais! Présentation, encore une fois superbe.
Je décide d'aller voir les autres critiques. À ma grande surprise, d'autres gens qui avaient pris la même assiette que nous avaient TROIS pétoncles & non deux dans leur assiette.
Honnêtement, le pain & le dessert étaient le seul positif de notre repas.
Le service était bon mais rien d'exceptionnel.
Mes attentes étaient peut-être trop élevées mais quelle déception!View more

Maison Boulud is hands down my favorite restaurant in Montreal. ⭐ I've been several times, & each visit is consistently exceptional. The food is always delicious; you can truly taste the quality in every single dish. ✨ The service is impeccable, the ambiance is refined yet welcoming, & the attention to detail is outstanding. One of my favorite parts? The madeleines they offer at the end are absolutely divine! 🥰 Every experience here has been memorable. It's by far my top recommendation for anyone looking for elegance, flavor, & top-tier service in Montreal. Thank you, Maison Boulud!
Maison Boulud est de loin mon restaurant préféré à Montréal. ⭐ J'y suis allée à plusieurs reprises & c'est toujours une expérience exceptionnelle. La nourriture est délicieuse, & on sent vraiment la qualité dans chaque plat. ✨ Le service est impeccable, l'ambiance est à la fois raffinée & chaleureuse, & chaque détail est soigné. & que dire des madeleines servies à la fin… un pur bonheur ! 🥰 C'est vraiment mon plus gros coup de coeur à Montréal, autant pour la qualité que pour le goût, le service, l'expérience & la propreté. Merci, Maison Boulud !View more

I feel like this place is overrated. My sisters & my mother also felt this way. None of us was impressed. The plates were pretty but nothing stood out. The food lacked in taste & flavour & I was actually pretty disappointed. Youd expect with such prices & such reputation that we would be happy with our food but unfortunately it missed the spot I will not be returning.View more

We stayed in the hotel so we dined here twice during our stay. Once for breakfast & once for dinner.
Breakfast experience.
The service was impeccable & very friendly. Servers actively spotted for anything you needed before you asked. The first cappuccinos we got were wonderful & velvety. The second were full of grinds & had no foam really. This was a minor issue but for the price, should never have been served. The food at breakfast was a solid 2* on the buffet. While the selection was nice, everything intended to be hot… was cold & dried out. Everything intended to be cold… was room temp. Overall. Not a great experience. For the price they could be refreshing that buffet entirely several times during their breakfast hours.

Dinner experience.
Overall it was a great experience. We went for the tasting menu with wine pairings & while not every dish was to our taste, they were all inspired & interesting. The service was fantastic all around.. everyone we encountered was very pleasant & went out of their way to ensure a great service. The wine pairings were excellent & absolutely on point. No complaints about dinner whatsoever… although of course insanely pricey.
I'd recommend it for dinner & would say to pass on breakfast. There are better options in the area with fresher food at a better price point for breakfast.View more

Food was excellent… The actual best French fries I have ever eaten.
Service was flawless, very attentive…
My only critique would be the decor, it looks dated & very 2010 ish… Sitting in the solarium, it was less noticeable.View more

My husband & I went to maison boulud for our anniversary dinner during our short visit in Montreal. We were glad we did. The food was phenomenal & just very pretty. We ordered the hamachi, some of the daily specials (caviar amuse bouche & the tournedos Rossini), the duck & some dessert. We ordered some drinks as well. Lune de miel was my drink, & it initially tasted very sour like it was out of balance. I didn't want to return it since I never return whatever i order but my husband said it was realllly sour. Our server told us not to drink it if I didn't like it & gave us a new one. Later, the bartender came to us & told us that there was indeed something missing & gave another one to me, & THAT was a great drink. Any restaurant can make a mistake, but how they remedy it really makes a restaurant special. In this case, our experience was great. My dish, the tournedos Rossini, Was a filet mignon with foie gras & truffles, & this was scrumptious. I'd order this again any day. The desserts were both phenomenal too - fresh & light. We came back for more the next day. My husband wished he had my dish. I heard that Montreal doesn't have any Michelin stars, but if they ever come to the city, I don't see why this restaurant wouldn't have at least one. I would love to come back later.View more
