My parents & I had a very nice dinner here, with my Dad's steak-fries as the standout dish. We also loved the restaurant's interior, though the menu was a little sparse.
TLDR: Dessert is really good, service is top notch. We went for desserts only, worried that we were not seated on a busy evening but they made accommodations for us!
As frequent travellers who dine around the world, I was really impressed with the desserts & the vibes of the place - def among the best French restaurants we've been to in Montreal/Canada.
Everyone was so nice with my daughter wearing a Disney princess dress & complimented her, & even went above & beyond & gave her an amazing experience.
Will come back for dinner next time we're in town. Thank you again for making the night a memorable experience for us 🤗
Génial, les cotes de porc & la pièce de boeuf étaient excellentes !! Je recommande.
En tant que français, on se sent presque à la maison
Great service & attention from the waitress, & the food was good too, but this morning me & my wife did not digest well. Probably the beef tartare.
Sat at the bar is the brasserie side. Make aure you have a reservation as it books up solid & there is no wait list for walk ins.
Steak frites & duck confit were absolutely amazing. Among the best, if not the best we have ever had. Grwat cheese & the pate / terrine / rillets were amazing. The bartender chose awesome wine pairings too. Gorgeous space as well.
We were a little reluctant about a spot in the touristy area, but so glad we went!
Just booked a reservation to have a few cocktails before heading out, beautiful restaurant & service!
Excited to come back for a full meal!
Had our anniversary dinner here on our trip to Montreal. We came early & were seated right away. Nice ambiance, not too loud for a dinner date. Friendly wait staff.
Food: Started off with the escargot over bone marrow & foie gras. Great presentation & nicely cooked escargot. Personal preference I like my escargot to be swimming in hot garlic oil. Escargot here was room temperature & placed on top of the bone marrow where you mix into the bone fat. Foie gras was standard.
Highlight of dinner was the entree!! We got the lamb & duck confit. Duck confit was cooked to perfection, buttery, crispy but melts in your mouth with the right amount of seasoning.
Dessert we got the passion fruit pavlova. It was nice & light after a heavy meal.
All in all I had a wonderful dinner experience.
We came here for lunch on June 30. We had visited before & were happy with both the food & service, so this experience was really disappointing. The food was fine, but the service was not. The female server with a ponytail barely smiled & never checked on us once during the meal. The male server who cleared our plates & brought the bill was also quite rude, especially compared with how warmly he treated the table next to us. Is this really what service at a traditional French restaurant is supposed to be like?
Solid 4 stars resteraunt. Food is good & wine list is extensive. Service is good but the resteraunt can be very busy. Highly recommend to make reservation ahead of time. We have a group of 7 & we got seated in front of the kitchen. Good atmosphere & everyone like the food.
