Modavie est un lieu intemporel qui nous rappelle nos racines, où dames & messieurs se réunissent pour manger dans une atmosphère animée causée par de bonnes conversations, de la musique live et les parfums boisés d’une salle vintage. Né en 1997, il est rapidement devenu populaire parmi les locaux et les visiteurs, et est maintenant considéré comme une institution montréalaise.
Régalez-vous avec une cuisine française raffinée dans un espace antique et tamisé sur deux étages. Du classique tartare de bœuf, au savoureux ris de veau, en passant par la fameuse ratatouille, vos envies seront facilement rassasiées.
Modavie offre une ambiance chaleureuse au coeur du Vieux-Montréal, avec une programmation live jazz qui sublime les repas et un service attentif. La cuisine française bistrot est régulièrement louée pour sa fraîcheur et ses saveurs, avec des plats phares comme le confit de canard, les côtelettes d'agneau et le risotto aux champignons, servis en portions généreuses et bien présentés. Le cadre est élégant et vivant, adapté aussi bien aux dîners romantiques qu'aux repas entre amis, et la carte des vins et les cocktails complètent l experience. Bien que le bruit et l'espace puissent être évoqués, les retours convergent sur une expérience globale positive et une adresse à recommander pour profiter de bonne nourriture, d'un service efficace et d'une ambiance musicale agréable.
Lovely place for date night! We went for a girls dinner as we were visiting for The Weeknd. The team is so accommodating & the food was delicious. We got the lamb shank as they're known for it. Sooooo good. Also the cheesecake was 10/10- The jazz bands adds something special upstairs. Make sure to request to sit near the music because the restaurant is big.
The best filet mignon ! The band playing live house jazz music 👌🏼 we had reservation but we still where seated almost 30 minutes past our reservation time which is ODD cause they will cancel the reservation if you come 15 min late it was a Thursday plus . Rhaman was incredible with the service very professional !!

Comida ótima, preço ok e ambiente agradável com jazz ao vivo. Há opçao de sentar no bar que é muito amplo, com cadeiras muito confortáveis e tomar uma dentre as várias opções de drinks do local. O tempo de espera nao é longo pois o restaurante é muito espaçoso.
Very aesthetic & pleasant atmosphere with live Jazz musician playing. Service is "ok" but staff are not to blame. I believe they are doing their best to take good care of their tables but has there is no bartender, they have to make the drinks/cocktails/coffees instade of having a bartender for all beverages in order too keep a good flow in the dinning room. Now, the food... very desapointed, my husband ordered their benedictines but his eegs were welldone & the potatoes were soft, unseasoned & bathing in grease. I ordered a salmon carpaccio that came with very old & dry blinis, dry raddish slices, there was suppose to have citrus but there were none so i asked for a side of lemon, it was also suppose to come with a dill oil, & again there was none. All i tasted was tarragon that was not mentioned in the tittle. I sad has it could be an amazing location for locals!
French restaurant. Server claims lamb is their specialty so I ordered the lamb chops & told the server I would have them however the chef recommends. I was with a big group & the lamb, while cooked medium, was room temperature. Tender, well seasoned. Service was good. Live jazz music was great. Would go back.
Modavie exceeded expectations on a Saturday night when our party of four managed to snag a table without a reservation, a pleasant surprise given the busy weekend atmosphere. From the moment we sat down, we were greeted with the lively ambiance of a live performance by Solane by Starlight Trio Swing, adding a charming jazz vibe to the evening. We began with a bottle of Chablis, Seguinot - Bordet 2022 - Chardonnay, a crisp & refreshing choice that paired well with the meal. For appetizers, we had the mussels & fries, a solid choice with mussels cooked perfectly, accompanied by crispy fries. The steak & fries followed, & though not the standout of the night, it was prepared to our liking. The salmon filet was the highlight, cooked to perfection with a great balance of flavors. To round off the night, we all shared two servings of the crème brûlée. A classic choice, it was executed well, providing a satisfying & sweet end to the meal. The ambiance, music, & food made for an enjoyable evening. Modavie offers a cozy, jazz-infused dining experience, especially great for a night out in Old Montreal.
We had a lovely meal here. The ceaser salad was so incredible! Also the lamb pasta, lamb chops & omg!.. the apple dessert! Whoa! That was so freaking good! The wine & cocktails were so Incredible. Honestly, everything was incredible. Modavie is doing great things. The live jazz created a beautiful environment & our waiter George provided excellent service 👏. Can't wait to dine here again when we're back in Canada.

The dinner & jazz band experience upstairs at Modavie seems very hard to top in Old Montreal. The service was extremely attentive & friendly, frequently checking on us & providing us with recommendations for a cocktail lounge following dinner. The food was exceptional; we had the lamb burger & steak & fries accompanied by Montrealer cocktails. The upstairs dining room was serenaded by a decent jazz band with a vocalist. The views of the street below were nice.
I heard this is where the locals go to hear jazz music n have great food. We were lucky to get a reservation! Bread is served warm, the onion soup is amazing w 1608 cheese. Very unique. The salmon tartare is very good, the Niçoise salad was over dressed. The filet lignin was excellent. We were too full to order dessert. Great place.
I had the pleasure of dining at this delightful establishment this summer. I commenced my meal with a delectable beef tartare appetizer, followed by a succulent lamb main course. The ambiance was further enhanced by the presence of a live jazz band. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience.
Excellent bistro. Good jazz (but often more blues) guitarist upstairs, quiet enough for conversation. Attentive service staff. I had onion soup & mussels + frites, all of which was great. Wine selection was good, a bit more expensive than comparable places. Not an issue for us, but tables do turn - they indicated when we arrived that we only had the table for two hours.
Lamb cavatelli was fabulous. Linguini with shrimp & scallops was not bad by any means, just banal & I could honestly do better at home. Salmon was good. Seasonal vegetable side for $7 was ridiculously small once I have coughed up $30-40 for a meal with half a serving of veg. Sorry. Live jazz was stupidly loud in the one room Nad we moved before we sat.
The most delicious mushroom risotto & excellent pesto gnocchi. Accompanied by lovely cocktails & fantastic live jazz music. It was loud, but we loved listening to the music.

Reservation highly recommended. It's a popular restaurant in Montreal old town & they have live music every night. However we were a little disappointed to find that it was not jazz/blues music on the day of our visit. Food is not tasty but portions are large. Northing to complain nor be impressed.
Excellent dinner with live jazz & reasonable prices for good food! Our waiter was Patrice & he was fantastic, he was funny, attentive & made our experience that much better! Give that man a raise!
A great night out for you & your partner. Definitely leave a note on your reservations to sit near the live music on either 1st or 2nd floor. The food was good, however, for the price it's a little too expensive, but I guess you're paying for the experience of the live jazz as well. My partner & I ordered the steak & frites, & the duck confit. I would recommend both dishes if you're having a hard time choosing a meal. The in-house cocktail selection was great, especially the'blood orange squeeze' &'pineapple express', which I highly recommend.
Had a great night at this charming restaurant. We ordered the duck confit, steak frites, & a couple of drinks. Everything was delicious, especially the cocktails (pineapple express & blood orange squeeze)!! Immaculate atmosphere. Loved the live jazz, incredibly romantic!!!! Very fast & friendly service. Would definitely recommend for a nice date night out.
We visited here on Memorial Day weekend from the U.S. This place was hard to find due to the construction, but it was crowded on Sunday. We ordered the brunch tower, small foie gras, & mimosas. The tower was impressive & caught the attention of other customers. I liked the salmon dish the most. The jazz band was also great. I definitely recommend this restaurant in Montreal.
