Everything about this place was incredible! Our waiter, Jerome, was so hospitable, kind, warm, & spoke excellent English! The food was delicious! We also loved having a table next to the open window with the heater turned on. Jerome also knew it was my wife's birthday without us having to tell them & gave her free dessert. 10/10 recommend!

We had a lovely evening in the Mechant Boeuf. We were well looked after by our waiter Valter. He was both friendly & extremely efficient. The food was excellent. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Walked by & decided we wanted to try the restaurant. Quentin took care of us & recommended us a wine to our taste! He immediately understood our taste. Both ordered a beef cut & cooking was perfect. Only negative point, a very loud table next to us. All in all, we had a great dinner for our last night in Montreal. Thanks!

Couldn't ask for a better restaurant! I'm here in Montreal on business & after many salads, I needed something more... Merchant Boeuf served up the perfect course of three. Cannot recommend highly enough. Super service, delicious wine & scrumptious food. I've been before, I'll return again. Ambience is delightful; seated next to open window with Old Port life in the street & the hum of a lively eatery inside.

I recently dined at Méchant Boeuf in Montreal & had a great experience overall. The service was outstanding, attentive, & friendly, which made our meal enjoyable. We tried the steak tartare, which had a unique kick, setting it apart from other tartares I've tasted. It was flavorful & had a nice texture. We also ordered the poutine with brisket; while the poutine was delicious, I felt the brisket could have used a bit more seasoning to enhance its flavor. The restaurant is in a great location, making it a convenient spot to enjoy a meal. I would definitely recommend it & give it four stars!

I ate at the bar two nights in a row because it was so good. The bartender customized a cocktail for me, which was nice, & kept me in club soda, which was extra nice. I had a perfectly cooked filet mignon one night, & the most outrageously good veggie burger the other night. It was a little noisy for my taste, but Fein, as a solo diner. I highly recommend this restaurant & will definitely be back.

Had a fantastic dinner here in Old Montreal. 45oz tomahawk steak cooked to perfection. Everything came out fresh & hot, & the service was great. The place was jam packed from the moment we arrived until we left at the end of the evening. Would highly recommend!!!

Stumbled across this place by chance after a river cruise. Thought we'd give it a try & glad we did. Our server, Valter was amazing. His knowledge about the fare they serve was very good. 3 of us, & we all decided on the sirloin steak which came highly recommended after being asked what we were looking for. If ever in Montreal again, would definitely go & dine here.
