We had a great time on a Saturday night with live music & flavorful food! George took care of us & helped us out with some really good recommendations. Would highly recommend!
Nestled in the heart of Old Port, Modavie stands out as a culinary beacon, even if you have to navigate through some construction to get there. The diverse menu caters to a variety of tastes, ensuring there's something for everyone. I had the pleasure of trying the Lamb Cavatelli, & it was a delightful fusion of tender lamb & perfectly cooked pasta that danced on my palate. The live music added an extra layer of charm to the experience, enhancing the already cozy ambiance. It's not just about the food at Modavie; it's about the entire experience. The service was impeccable - attentive & timely, without being intrusive. It's clear that Modavie values its customers & understands the essence of hospitality. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Modavie is a must-visit spot in Montreal's Old Port. Don't let a little construction keep you from this fantastic dining experience! :P

Possibly the best restaurant experience we have had. We visited while on vacation in Old Montreal & we were lucky enough to be there for a live blues band. We had the garlic snails as an appetizer & freshly baked warm rolls were brought to the table as well. The Lamp Chops were out of this world as was my wifes Filet Mignon. That was followed by a crazy good creme brulee. The drinks were professionally made as well & were exceptional. On top of all this the server named Rad was no less than perfect. Friendly, knowledgeable & went out of his way to ensure we were enjoying ourselves throughout the night. He also allowed us all the time we wanted for a nice meal & music. Thank you for a memorable night.
One of our favorite places in Montreal & some of the best food hands down. We went twice & both times had the lamb pasta because it was THAT good - we also had the steak frites, French onion soup, Caesar salad, crème brûlée, & seasonal sorbet - all excellent as well & the drinks were very good. Very cute atmosphere with live music at night. Staff were so friendly & welcoming - we went to maybe 12-15 restaurants throughout our trip & none came close to Modavie.
Fantastic. One of'many' great places to eat in Old Montreal. Having said that, Modavie stood out as being one of the best. Service was excellent, the decor & live music was great as well. The food......perfection! French Onion soup & the Duck Confit were both the best we've had yet. The'huge' bowl of local muscles was also the best. Highly recommended!!! 😀
Amazing dinner. Went here spontaneously on a Saturday at 7:30pm without a reservation with my boyfriend. Was sat immediately at the bar as all tables were reserved (totally get it, love sitting at the bar). The bartender was attentive & very talented as the cocktails we got were both superb. We ordered the snails as an app, I got the duck confit, & he got the lamb chops. We were given extra bread for the snail butter without asking. Waters always refilled. Meats cooked perfect. Live music was to die for. Got double espressos, crème brûlée, & profiteroles for dessert which were equally delicious. If I lived here I think I'd go every week.

Nice restaurant. The atmosphere is bustling. The service was good. Waiter was studious, but not very attentive. Staff to customer ratio may be the reason. The food was good. The rack of lamb was a little bit gamey. The desserts were phenomenal! We ordered the bone marrow appetizer, beef tartare, steak & fries, 2 kids menu (pasta & chicken nuggets), & the rack of lamb. Overall, the food was good. Place is clean & atmosphere is popping with the live music. Overall, a place to visit on special occasions.
Lovely restaurant in Old Montréal with live music from 7PM & a selection of lamb on the menu. The poutine was delicious & worth the added cost for the braised lamb. I was hoping to try the lamb pappardelle mentioned by other reviewers but it appears they've switched to cavatelli, which was cooked perfectly so no regrets! The only downside was that the lamb cavatelli was too rich & oily for my preference, otherwise would also highly recommend this. The lamb chops were decent, nothing spectacular. Great service & ambience for a date night.
Great dinner! Service was on point, food was delicious & the live jazz music was bringing the perfect atmosphere (the music is not too loud, perfect for a conversation around the table). We'll be back, thank you!

Amazing brunch spot! We have gone a few times over the years, & we always have a great experience. The live music at brunch is amazing. Recently, my wife & I went in the morning of our anniversary, & Lorenzo made an extraordinary effort to make the experience wonderful. I fully recommend Modavie!
Lovely bistro with incredible service, delicious brunch (especially the onion soup!), & talented live musician. If we lived in Montreal, we'd visit every weekend. Special thank you to George for the excellent attention & service!

great spot in old montreal. went there after a play at centaur theatre. menu is a bit fancier, no cheeseburgers or chain restaurant type meals. I had lamb burger. not cheap but with live music & highend flood you have to pay more.
Excellente expérience! A go to when I visit Montreal, the live music is always great & the food delicious. This most recent visit we were seated by the owner Lorenzo, who even remembered our names when he came by to see how we were enjoying our meal.
Beyond phenomenal dishes. The food is rich with flavor, & the atmosphere is beautifully comfortable. They play live music upstairs that sounds like it's straight from the radio, whomever is behind the jazz deserves a raise. Honestly though, it was an incredible experience & the next time I am back in Montreal I will stop by again. - Au-delà des plats phénoménaux. La nourriture est riche en saveurs & l'atmosphère est magnifiquement confortable. Ils jouent de la musique live à l'étage qui sonne comme si elle sortait tout droit de la radio, celui qui est derrière le jazz mérite une augmentation. Honnêtement, c'était une expérience incroyable & la prochaine fois que je reviendrai à Montréal, je m'arrêterai à nouveau.
From the moment we were greeted at the door by Lorenzo, no reservation was no problem, a seat by the fire, great live music, appropriately prompt service & wonderful warming winter food.
