Je suis allée fêter cela avec mon mari & nous avons visité l'un des meilleurs restaurants du Canada. Nous avons été très bien accueillis & avons apprécié l'ambiance, même si elle était parfois un peu bruyante.
La nourriture était délicieuse, le tartare & le gnochi se démarquant.
Les autres plats qu'on avait gouté bons,
mais pas exceptionnels.

De l'accueil à la sortie, tout était parfait. On choisi le menu dégustation avec l'accord vin & on s'est laissé guider par notre serveur.

Vin Mon Lapin, ranked #1 on Canada's 100 Best Restaurants list, is a must-visit spot in Montreal's Little Italy. From start to finish, it was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. The vibrant atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between youthful energy & refined sophistication. Though the space is cozy, it adds to the charm, & reservations are a must.

We sat at the bar with a clear view of the kitchen, feeling like we were at an intimate dinner party. The service was exceptional, with our friendly server offering wine samples & never rushing us. We opted for the chef's curated tasting menu, paired flawlessly with wines. Every course amazed me, especially the Le Croque-Pétoncle-a scallop sandwich on buttery, garlicky toast-easily the best dish I've ever had. The veal tartare with sun-gold tomatoes, rich Béarnaise-like sauce, & perfectly seared duck breast with foie gras sauce were standout dishes.

The wine pairings elevated the meal, & though I lost track of courses, I couldn't stop savoring each bite. A hidden gem, Mon Lapin offers some of the finest French/Italian-inspired food in Montreal. Don't miss it-put it on your restaurant list to visit, & you won't be disappointed.

Great place to relax & grab some shareable food (starters or dishes) with your party. The food & ingredients are original & well balanced with some mixed French & Italian flavor spirit & the dressing is fancy. You have a nice range of wine to choose from per glass or whole bottle. Overall a good experience.

Délicieux repas avec d'excellentes recommandations par notre charmante sommelière Fiona. C'était notre première fois & sûrement pas notre dernière. Il paraît que le menu change aux 2 semaines!
