Overall, Mignon Steak appears to provide a memorable night out with high points for food and atmosphere, but experiences vary, suggesting it is worth trying with reasonable expectations around service speed and consistency.
J'ai commandé le boeuf tartare en repas. Beaucoup de tire-babine, de gras & autres pièces de viandes non comestibles dans la préparation. Pire tartare que j'ai mangé dans ma vie.

My husband & I popped into Mignon (in Vieux Montreal) on a cold evening just by chance. We sat at the bar & were welcomed warmly by Pablo who mixed up some stellar cocktails. I would highly recommend stopping by for a bevvies.
Nous avons été assez déçus par notre expérience dans ce restaurant. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons demandé à changer de table, mais la serveuse nous a répondu que celle juste à côté était « réservée ». Or, personne ne s'y est installé durant tout notre repas. D'autant plus qu'il semble, d'après le site, qu'il n'est même pas possible de réserver une table précise. Le plus surprenant est qu'un autre serveur a proposé à des clients arrivés après nous de choisir librement leur table. Cela donne vraiment l'impression que la décision dépend simplement du bon vouloir de la serveuse, sans raison valable.
L'espace entre les tables est également très limité : nous étions vraiment collés aux autres clients, ce qui nuit au confort. J'ai aussi trouvé qu'il faisait assez froid dans la salle, ce qui n'a pas aidé à rendre le moment agréable. Plusieurs personnes au bar gardé leurs manteaux.
Côté cuisine, les frites semblaient clairement surgelées, comparables à ce que l'on peut trouver dans n'importe quel autre établissement, ce qui est décevant. Le seul point positif de ce repas reste le steak, qui était bon.
En résumé, un service inégal, un confort discutable & une qualité de plats en-dessous de nos attentes. Nous ne reviendrons pas.
The steak frites special was quite good as well as the cocktails. I recommend their lychee martini. The moules frites were also quite nice & fresh. However, service was a little slow & could've been a little bit more attentive & friendly. We had to ask for multiple things that were still forgotten (the usual bread that comes with the meal, knives etc). It is to note that food took quite long & we were served well after lots of tables. That being said, restaurants can have slower nights. The interior is lovely, but being by the door will have you very cold during the winter as it opens frequently. I would still give them another visit in the future. The steak was enjoyable but do note the portions are small for the price.
