Très belle soirée. Notre serveur, Nolan, était exceptionnel. La viande était cuite parfaitement & je recommande fortement la tarte au citron.

We had a wonderful dining experience. Valter was a superb waiter & is reason enough to visit Méchant Boeuf, but the food was also wonderful. Atmosphere is sophisticated without being intimidating.

Delicious & authentic French cuisine located at a cute street in Old Montreal. The baby back ribs are hard to beat, & the salmon tartare exceeds my expectation. We received excellent service from Simon & his colleagues. Simon provided detailed explanation for the dessert menu, & gifted us a cute box of chocolate :)

Accueil très convivial. Nous avons eu le plaisir d'être servis par Jérôme. Excellent service & de belles suggestions. Queue de homard excellente! La bavette de boeuf était très bonne également. Nous avons fait une petite demande de dernière minute & Jérôme s'est assuré de répondre à cette demande avant la fermeture des cuisines, ce que nous avons grandement apprécié.

We popped into Old Montreal for New Year's Eve & had the best time at Hotel Nelligan & specifically Mechant Boeuf. The sweetest gal greeted us as the most assertive & helpful hostess. It was so obvious she was committed to seating us promptly. Because we had a slight wait, she sent bubbles to the table. We watched her serve the restaurant in any capacity, attending to tables with drink service & a smile. Our waiter, Valter, was efficient & patient with a very difficult table next to us, & we noticed many pleased patrons under his service. Absolutely top notch service from entry to exit!! We will be back!

Accueil enthousiaste dès l'arrivée, ambiance chaleureuse mais familiale. Les places au bar sont confortables & donne envie d'y rester un long moment. Super service de Marie-Joëlle, dynamique, conviviale & avenante, mais dès son départ, nous n'avons pas reçu de suivi de ses collègues pour terminer notre belle expérience. Nous y retournerons sans faute :) ✌
