On s'est régalés! Le resto coté brasserie est très joli & les serveurs sont au petit soin

Nous avons mangé à une table brasserie. La nourriture était savoureuse, des bonnes portions & une excellente ambiance. La raison principale pourquoi je voulais faire un avis: le personnel! Que ce soit l'hôtesse ou les serveurs, tout le monde était d'un professionnalisme exemplaire & dégageait une joie de travailler dans ce milieu. Je recommande pour n'importe quelle occasion

Un très beau restaurant. Les plats sont bons, sans plus, pas de wow. Le service est un peu froid. Je n'y retournerai pas.

J'ai été impressionné par la grandeur de la salle à manger de la brasserie & surtout par l'immense comptoir & son mur de bouteilles de vins. L'ambiance est dynamique, on peut assister au travail en cuisine à travers les grandes vitres de la salle. J'ai aimé le service professionnel & efficace, il y a beaucoup d'employés pour servir. La carte des plats est assez diversifiée pour offrir plusieurs choix de viandes, poissons & légumes à nous trois. Tout ce qu'on a choisi était bon, entrées, plats principaux & desserts. Mais rien n'était'très' bon, ni très bien présenté. Par exemple la salade qui venait avec le homard thermidor était copieuse mais vraiment commune & sans effort de présentation. Ou la mousse au chocolat était grosse & avait bon goût, mais rien de plus. On a trouvé que les prix n'étaient pas exagérés mais en conclusion, en l'absence de wow dans l'assiette, on a eu une impression d'inachevé.

This is definitely a high-end restaurant, but not fine-dining per se. They put a lot of effort into the dishes & the presentation is lovely. That said - the lobster I had was overcooked & in general, I wouldn't say this place was super memorable or had me mind-blown with it's creativity (the biggest surprise for the evening was the tomato/strawberry dessert). Good food, nothing special, not sure if it's worth the price.

Service exceptionnel & plats délicieux, mais les portions étaient un peu petites. Je recommande fortement le tartare de thon au ponzu!

We visited Monarque by recommendation of my husband's colleague who visiting Montreal regularly. We love it! We chose to dine in its casual more affordable price point Monarque Brasserie & we visited twice as the first time was excellent! I will review both visit in 3 days apart in key areas that important to our dining experience. SERVICE The first greeting, table seating & our table service was immaculate & contributed & complemented our first dining experience at Monarque. The personnel who looked after us on Tues 23 July 24 (sorry we did not get your name) was absolutely fantastic! One of the best, & the best asset to the establishment! He was professional, attentive but not intrusive. He was helpful with the wine & frankly making us deciding to ho back 2nd time even we had many other restaurants in our wish list. We only had 5 dinners in the city & we chose Monarque twice. The second service was amiss, unfortunately. Greeting was cold, no smile, no eyes contact, took us to the wrong area of booking but all resolved. Our waiting personnel was aloof, more attentive to certain tables so we were left having to try to get his attention when we wanted to order more drinks & desserts. FOOD Classic French dishes & to-die-for desserts! We had foie gras, lamb ratatouille, canard, seafood bouillabaisse, grilled octopus & passion fruit pavlova. All 10/10. Wine list is great. We are not heavy drinker so love a few glasses of good wine & it does not disappoint. AMBIENCE A blend of modern & retro deco, warm & flattering lighting, sexy bar area with sleek bartenders. People watching here looked fun & romantic date is good (except if the service is amiss second time- wouldn't be fun). Music is good level of sound, ventilation is great. Feel airy & comfortable to be in.
