We booked a last minute reservation, & were very glad we did. There was lovely live music in the next room. The atmosphere was festive, with nice moody lighting, a gorgeous old building & great bistro-type decor. There are hundreds of wine choices & the server was knowledgable about all the wines we asked about. I had the risotto, & my husband had an off-menu steak. We had tuna tartare as an appetizer. We were so impressed with the service (see the photo of him posing) & the food, & with the beautiful ambiance. Highly recommended!
Amazing place, one of my favourite go to places in Montreal. If I had the chance again, I would definitely have this on my list of possible places. It had tender & beautiful lamb of which I ordered today. It was deliciously cooked, a beautiful gravy, potatoes, & a once in a lifetime meal.
I went for early dinner with 2 daughters to enjoy French onion soup, mussels, & creme brulee. We were told that we had our table for 2 hours, though right after an hour the waiter came & put the check in front of me, did not even offer or given a chance to order dessert. To say I was shocked - is not to say anything. Food is very tasty, but will not be back for such service 🙈
Between the ambiance, the amazing staff & delicious food, this little gem near Old Port is an amazing find. Strongly recommend giving it a try. This may become your next hot-spot. Looking forward to a return visit.

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.
Ambiance exceptionnelle. La.musique live est vraiment un plus bien que nous n'avions pas d'attente. La rapidité du service est exceptionnelle & le goût absolument maîtrisé.

Food & service were both excellent! Our server was wonderful & she was very helpful with suggestions. We would definitely go back. Live music is also a nice touch!
We came here recently & had a great time overall. It's a nice place down in Old Montreal to grab a bite or have some drinks. The restaurant has a nice vibe & they had a live band playing that night which was pretty cool. The service was very good considering it does get quite busy here at times so I'd highly recommend getting a reservation. The Food was above average as well. Some items on the appetizers could've been a bit better but the main courses were top notch. The Lamb was probably one of the best I've ever tried & the Filet Minion was exceptional as well. The Cocktails were all really good & the dessert was enjoyable too. I'd definitely recommend to give this place a try as I'm sure I will return again myself whenever I visit again.
Restuarant in Old Montreal, I ordered the salmon tartare which was delicious & the mushroom risotto for main ... I'm a big fan of risotto & this did not disappoint

When the six of us entered Modavie for lunch we had no expectations but really like the decor & ambience of this bistro. We ordered from the lunch menu expecting small portions. Wow, tp our pleasant surprise the portions were very generous & delicious. The Red snapper & the Duck confit in particular were delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant if you want good food at outstanding value & quality.
Just enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Modavie. Despite the fact that it was a holiday (unbeknownst to us), they graciously accepted us as guests without a reservation. There was live entertainment upstairs which we enjoyed immensely. We started with onion soup. Although it was not what we anticipated, it was still delicious & flavorful. They are known for their lamb dishes, so we had the lamb chop dinner with seasonal veggies & the rack of lamb. Both enhanced with a side of foie gras. The lamb dishes were cooked to order "saignant." Both were seasoned perfectly. The rack of lamb came with a sauce that really set off the flavor of the beef ! Service was attentive & friendly. This restaurant is a 5/5 rating in service, food & ambiance. Although not inexpensive, considering the USD to Canadian dollar exchange rate, it was actually very reasonable when you consider all things put together. So yes, I highly recommend trying Modavie when you visit old Montreal - you won't be disappointed !
Great place for French food & live music. The rack of lamb was some of the best I've had at a restaurant & our server was very helpful on helping us pick out our wine, appetizer & desserts. Will be back!
Found this amazing french wine bar & restaurant with live music! Great wine selection & french food! Booking on weekend is recommended! Friendly staff.
