Président d'honneur de l'édition 2007 du Festival Montréal en Lumière, Daniel Boulud a déjà tissé des liens étroits avec Montréal. « Je suis français d'origine et américain d'adoption depuis plus de 3 décennies. Mon approche comme chef et restaurateur combine les deux traditions européennes et nord-américaines. C'est ce mélange de culture qui me fascine à propos de Montréal et qui me fait sentir très proche de ma ville natale de Lyon, a ajouté M. Boulud.
Maison Boulud est décrite comme une destination gastronomique française raffinée où la cuisine est constamment soignée, le service est impeccable et le cadre est élégant mais accueillant, les avis saluant des plats inventifs, des sauces raffinées et des desserts remarquables comme les madeleines; l'ambiance peut aller d'une verrière lumineuse à une salle intime et chaleureuse, ce qui en fait un lieu prisé pour les occasions spéciales et les repas d'affaires, et la carte des vins est vaste et bien assortie; quelques critiques soulignent que certains plats principaux manquent de générosité ou que les brunchs peuvent être inégaux et coûteux, mais le consensus général reste une expérience exceptionnelle et mémorable qui incite à revenir.
Stumbled upon Maison Boulud on a lazy Sunday morning while exploring the Ritz-Carlton neighborhood, & honestly it completely set the bar for brunch in this city. The eggs Benedict with smoked salmon were perfectly executed, rich without being overwhelming, exactly what you want after a long week. The dining room has this gorgeous old-world elegance that somehow still feels relaxed & approachable, not stuffy at all. If you work hard Monday through Friday & want to treat yourself on the weekend, this is the spot.

Belle adresse pour un brunch élégant, mais l'expérience n'est pas irréprochable considérant le prix.
Nous étions installés dans la salle à manger intérieure près du foyer. Le décor conserve le charme du Ritz, mais plusieurs éléments, notamment les chaises, mériteraient sérieusement d'être revus. Elles sont peu confortables & donnent une impression un peu datée, ce qui contraste avec le standing attendu.
Si vous pouvez réserver dans le jardin couvert, je vous le conseille vivement. L'espace est superbe & l'ambiance y est nettement plus raffinée.
Du côté de l'assiette, l'exécution est bonne. L'oeuf mollet était parfaitement cuit, le potage à l'artichaut riche & velouté, & les gaufres aux crevettes sauce béchamel, version revisitée des oeufs bénédictine, étaient particulièrement réussies. Mon saumon confit avec asperges blanches était bien préparé, mais demeurait très classique, sans réelle surprise ni touche distinctive.
Les douceurs de fin de repas, notamment l'éclair au chocolat, le café & les petites viennoiseries croustillantes, complètent agréablement l'expérience.
Cela dit, malgré une cuisine de qualité, la facture semble un peu ambitieuse pour ce qui est proposé. On ressort satisfait, mais pas totalement charmé. Une belle table, certes, mais qui gagnerait à moderniser son intérieur & à offrir un peu plus d'audace dans l'assiette pour être pleinement à la hauteur de sa réputation.
It was an extremely lovely experience with exceptional service. I appreciated very much the recommendation of wines & drinks, the knowledge of the waiter in explaining to us the dishes, & the excellent quality of the meal. The quebec lamb melted in my mouth despite being cooked to the recommended medium level, & my wife thoroughly enjoyed her veal. The dessert was also decadent, & ended our evening very nicely. The anniversary surprise was also a super nice touch!
Michelin star for a reason. Exceptional service paired with extraordinary artistry on the plate, true culinary craftsmanship. It made for a memorable & peaceful birthday evening. Definitely a place to experience at least once in your lifetime.
Pricey! $55.-$21. For a glass of wine? Yikes. Chalk it up for being housed in the Ritz hotel. This restaurant is good but not over the top extraordinary. Service was exceptional however, there were several long delays in our five course vegetarian chefs menu. Some of the dishes were artistically plated. The colors & flavors seem to mailed together. We couldn't quite tell if there was a theme of white asparagus or not.

Dining at this acclaimed restaurant was an incredible experience. The service was top-notch, adhering to perfect table etiquette from the warm greeting at the entrance to the personalized attention from the waitstaff. The food was astonishing & beautifully plated, perfectly complemented by an exquisite wine selection & cocktails. For my wife's special occasion, she was even treated to a complimentary dessert that made the evening truly memorable.
Nice place, gourmet food which means small portions. It was fine for me but if you have a bigger appetite, may not be totally satisfying but the quality is very good, along with their creative use of ingredients & drinks. Way too pricey for what you get but nice for a special occasion.
By far, the best restaurant in Montréal.
I brunch here often on Sunday's & holidays.
Excellent chef, staff & atmosphere.
Reasonable price for a 5 star experience.
I went 4 months ago a first time & was very satisfied although not mesmerized by the veinoiseries. This time around though, they were really good! From the vienoiseries basket to the mimozas & course meals, everything was spot on. The service was also amazing, for a 15 minute wait due to a large group between starters & main, our waitress very kindly comped us the drinks & vienoiseries basket.
Definitely recommend!

I sat at the bar & had a really pleasant conversation with the bartender, which added to the experience. The atmosphere is upscale, so dress nicely-it's definitely more of a'treat yourself' kind of spot.
The restaurant has a beautiful terrace & is perfect for all kinds of occasions, whether it's closing business deals, dining with family, or going out with friends. They also have tables that accommodate larger groups.
The ingredients are top-notch, & it shows in every dish.
They're so accommodating. They made me a vegan dish (mushroom risotto) that was not on the menu. & even proposed a vegan sorbet that was not on the menu, as a dessert.
This restaurant is pricey so expect to pay 100$ per person.
Grande maison patricienne, dont l'adresse & la façade (& le grand hôtel contigu) disent d'emblée le rang. & pourtant on y trouve beaucoup d'attention, un service impeccable, une carte inventive & plusieurs'endroits' dans la salle, sous la verrière ou près de la cheminée. Très bon moment, bravo
Maison Boulud est un incontournable à Montréal si vous voulez vraiment manger parmi ce qui se fait de mieux. Le service est impeccable & la carte des vins offre tout le choix nécessaire.
Le seul petit bémol - & pas suffisant pour enlever une étoile - c'est que, à l'occasion, certains plats principaux, du moins à mon avis, manquent un peu de générosité. On a parfois l'impression d'être plus près d'une entrée que d'un vrai plat principal.
Cela dit, la qualité de la cuisine & du service est tellement élevée que ça demeure, sans hésitation, un cinq étoiles.

The meals here are always delicious & delightful-perfectly prepared food, refined sauces & seasoning, & friendly attentive service. I love the people watching too, a fun mix of couples, friends, business meetings, families-everyone looks happy, grateful for the excellent meal in the charming setting.
We celebrated a birthday & the service was excellent. Our glasses were never empty. The cocktails were imaginative & beautiful. Perhaps it was the items we chose but the food was good. Not spectacular or imaginative but it was satisfactory.
Supremely disappointed with this restaurant. Food was not up to par. We were a very large group & had ordered 3 bottles of champagne for everyone. The staff kept serving & opening bottles without first asking if we wanted more thus doubling our bill. It was also impossible for us to track the quantity of bottles actually served. This feels like a rather illegitimate way of upselling. However, Servers & staff were kind & did a good job with the service.
Very exquisite French cuisine, incredible service. The staff were very kind, explaining every detail of each dish to us. It's a very pleasant dining room experience. The tables had plenty of room. Chairs were comfortable. There was enough noise to not be overhearing your neighbor's conversations & not so loud that you can't hold your own. We're staying at the Ritz-Carlton so this is also an extremely convenient option for us.
