About

Modavie is a timeless place that brings us back to our roots, where ladies & gents gather and eat in a lively atmosphere caused by great conversation, live music and the wooden scents of a vintage room. Born in 1997, it quickly became popular among locals & visitors, and is now considered a Montreal institution.

Treat yourself to refined French fare in an antique & dimmed corner locale spawning two floors. From the classic beef tartare, to tasty sweetbread, to the famous ratatouille, your cravings will be easily satiated.

High quality fine dining. Would definitely recommend.

The bread just came out of the over, & it's one of the best I've tried in Montreal.

Loved the live music & every single thing we ordered was delicious! They had lots of options for gluten allergies, in particular the poutine with lamb was a highlight. I also really appreciated the mayo & ketchup coming with the fries.

We love this place! We did not have a reservation, but I highly encourage it! We went on a weekend day! Since we were two it was easier to get a window seat quite quickly! Or it was pure luck! Otherwise, you need a reservation for larger groups! Place is popular for a reason! Had to try their lamb poutine! The fillet mignon was tasty & well done! Great service & nice atmosphere with live music! Highly recommended!

Restaurant is right in the middle of downtown. Great ambience, great menu, great drinks menu. It is slightly poorly lit so reading menus can be a bit challenging but no real issues.

The food & the cocktails were fabulous. Our servers (bartender & bar back) were definitely part of making the experience memorable. Amazing service backed up by the delicious meal. Also- they were very knowledgeable about celiacs & knew exactly what to order. This kitchen has a dedicated gluten free fryer- do not miss if you are gluten free in Montreal.
