It borrows on the reputation of the RITZ-CARLTON hotel, but that's where it stops. This food is good quality but nothing that you could not find any other good restaurants in Montreal at lower prices. The service is on its appearance, very polite, but almost to the point of condescension. It does not compensate for the fact that the service is very slow, Almost as if this was expected for a high priced restaurant. The decor & atmosphere is like a fancy cafeteria.
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.
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 !

The quality of the service is exceptional; the staff is super attentive. You can also taste the freshness of everything you're served which makes it even more enjoyable.
My experience at Maison Boulud was incredible. My friend & I were visiting Montreal & wanted a Michelin-quality dinner. MB had no reservations but they were kind enough to seat us at the bar. I actually loved sitting at the bar because the bartender & the sommelier were both so fun & passionate about their work. Every course was phenomenal & the wine pairings elevated the experience. Toward the end, I was feeling so full, but the pre-dessert course hacked my digestive system & made me feel not full almost immediately. It was a really cool trick. It's been several months & I'm still thinking about my dinner there. I highly recommend you check it out if you're in Montreal.
Haute Cuisine prices without the haute cuisine. We were expecting more from Maison Boulud in Montreal’s Ritz Carlton Hotel, & while some aspects were great, others were disappointing.
Positive points: beautiful restaurant with sumptuous seating, attractive garden-side seating, snob-appeal atmosphere.
Negative points:
Very high prices, even at lunch – two courses $35, three courses $42, with very limited choice. The online table d’hote menu is not updated when the menu changes, so we had no idea what was on offer, until we showed up.
Regular menu items at lunch vary from about $29-$43 for main courses, & $17-$24 for entrees, i.e. $46-$67 for two courses.
Very high wine & bar prices: cheapest glass of wine is $13, then it jumps to $17-$25 for a 5 oz. glass. Martinis & cocktails are $15-$24, more for better brands. We were astounded that they did not have Grey Goose available, even though it’s specified in one of their cocktails. Bottled beer is $9, regardless of whether it is domestic or imported ($9 for a Molson Export or a Stella Artois? This makes no sense at all!)
We don’t mind the prices as long as the food quality matches. Unfortunately, Maison Boulud was not haute cuisine. We’ve had equal or better food at several of the city’s trendy restaurants & bistros, at lower prices, so we were disappointed that Maison Boulud did not deliver the “wow” factor. Ingredients seemed to be of above average quality, but more expertise is needed in the kitchen. The food was good, but not great, especially at these prices. Generally speaking, the food was bland.
The bread basket was not delicious either: very salty focaccia, & rather ordinary baguette. Some say that you can determine the quality of a restaurant by the quality of its bread basket.
Cutlery is placed directly on re-usable woven placemats, which may seem attractive, until you see the staff wiping the placemats with a wet rag & then placing new cutlery for the next client. Not very sanitary. Our waiter even placed some cutlery directly on the table.
Several of the cooks in the open kitchen seemed to not be wearing hats or hairnets, which is not legal in this city.
Service was perfunctory, not as polished as one would expect at the Ritz Carlton, & not exceedingly friendly. Not even a thank you for a generous tip!
Our waiter spoke very little English, which was also surprising in a hotel catering to many businessmen & wealthy visitors from other parts of Canada & abroad.
