Maison Boulud is widely regarded as a premier dining destination in Montreal, celebrated for its elegant atmosphere, particularly its serene garden terrace and sophisticated interior design. Many guests praise the restaurant for its refined French cuisine, exceptional culinary craftsmanship, and attentive, professional service that consistently enhances special occasions. While the vast majority of visitors highlight high quality ingredients, beautiful presentation, and a memorable overall experience, some diners have noted inconsistency in dish execution and portion sizes, with a few expressing concerns regarding value relative to price. Despite these occasional critiques, the restaurant remains a highly recommended spot for those seeking a polished and upscale culinary experience in a classic setting.
Lovely Christmas dinner at Maison Boulour. Warm, elegant atmosphere without feeling stiff, attentive service all evening, & the food was genuinely excellent. Seasonal dishes done really well, beautifully presented, & everything felt thoughtful rather than overdone. A calm, special place to spend Christmas, would happily go back.
Boxing day brunch is divine. Service is attentive. The food is plentiful, well seasoned, varied & scrumptious. I highly encourage you to join for the holiday brunch. Best experience ever!
Very traditional, old school & quiet. The menu is pretty much what you would expect with a mix of Italian & French flare. Some mocktails are offered. The service is great. The clientele is old. The food is well prepared & tasty but a bit boring.

Thank you for a wonderful meal & visit to your Maison Boulud restaurant! We thoroughly enjoyed the meal to celebrate a birth, as well as a recent birthday. It was a special celebration with my mother who is well into her 90's. We were given the royal treatment by the Maison Boulud staff!
Valet parking was provided upon arrival & departure. Coat checks were also provided. This was a pleasant addition to our visit to the restaurant.
On our first visit, Joe was our main server & was attentive, caring & helpful. Nadine & Pamela also assisted in serving. We enjoyed the following menu items: Tartare de Saumon & Onglet de Boeuf. For dessert we enjoyed the Gateau Carotte & the Prune & Canneberge along with a pot of warm tea.
On our second visit, Adil was our main server, along with Émile & Joe. From start to finish (our arrival to our departure), the staff was friendly, helpful, attentive & caring!! 👍❤?🥰
A special thanks to your amazing team:

Merci pour ce merveilleux repas & cette belle visite à votre restaurant, Maison Boulud ! Nous avons beaucoup apprécié ce moment, qui célébrait à la fois une naissance & un anniversaire récent. Ce fut une célébration spéciale en compagnie de ma mère, qui a largement dépassé les 90 ans. L'équipe de la Maison Boulud nous a traités comme des rois!
Un service de voiturier était assuré à l'arrivée & au départ. Des vestiaires étaient également à disposition, ce qui a agréablement complété notre visite.
Lors de notre première venue, Joe était notre serveur principal. Il s'est montré attentif, prévenant & serviable. Nadine & Pamela ont également participé au service. Nous avons dégusté les plats suivants : le tartare de saumon & l'onglet de boeuf. Pour le dessert, nous avons savouré le gâteau à la carotte ainsi que le dessert prune & canneberge, accompagnés d'une théière de thé chaud.
Lors de notre deuxième visite, Adil était notre serveur principal, aux côtés d'Émile & Joe. Du début à la fin (de notre arrivée à notre départ), le personnel s'est montré amical, serviable, attentif & prévenant !! 👍❤?🥰
Un merci tout particulier à votre formidable équipe:

Celebrated my partner's birthday here & we absolutely loved it. The atmosphere is warm & welcoming, & every staff member was incredibly polite & attentive. The food was delicious, the octopus & risotto were my favourites! Service was exceptional, & the complimentary madeleines at the end were such a nice touch. Highly recommend!
Nous sommes allés comme cadeau pour mon père & avons pris le menu dégustation avec l'accord vin. Un 7 services nous permettant de goûter à plusieurs plats. J'ai adoré la pieuvre & la morue. Les accords étaient parfait avec les plats. Le service attentionné des serveurs était super. Facture salé, mais ça en valait la peine.
Excellent service & atmosphere
Food Average in general. You hear a list of exoticingredients from countries around the world, & the presentation is pleasant, but the taste Average at best
Another thing missing is it warm bread!
I've been there at least a dozen times since it has opened… both on personal lunch/dinners or on business events. It's been consistently a great experience . The menu is both inventive & beautifully executed. The service is attentive, but not overbearing. The cocktail & wine list are excellent (although the wine list is devoid of good deals…). Overall, a great experience
