I tried their burger, hoping it would be the best in town at this price. Turns out, it is one of the worst. The bread looked like commercial bread that was reheated quickly & the meat looked like firm, not juicy, not well seasonned, overcooked commercial premade beef patties. How can this be served in a wannabe fancy restaurant for 30$?!

Hier soir (samedi 17 janvier) je suis aller passer la soirée avec un groupe de 30 personnes.
En un mot la soirée fût parfaite.
Un service de cuisine efficace, rapide, chaud & très goûteux. Exemple: malgré le fait que plus de la moitié ont pris la morue, tout étaient très chaud.
En salle le service étaient souriants, avenant & surtout relaxe.
On passé une très belle soirée
Merci

Cuisine bien exécutée sans pour autant créer l'effet wow attendu à ce niveau de prix. Les plats sont bons & classiques. Le confort est convenables, sans rien de particulièrement marquant ou exceptionnel. Dans l'ensemble, l'expérience est agréable, mais le rapport qualité prix paraît élevé.

A good traditional cafe. I went for Sunday lunch started with the canapes & then the steak frites. The canapes were the highlight, particular the mousse, it was great. No complaints with the steak but it did not blow me away, same for the fries.

My experience was amazing because of service (first & foremost shout out to Jean-Michel), food, & atmosphere.

During our visit, we started with ordering what we thought were good plates (they absolutely were) but it turned into a Michelin star experience when Jean -Michel took the reigns & ordered his recommended plates & side dishes.

Listen. Everything here is amazing. There's a reason you found this restaurant in a list somewhere of best in Montreal so the last one here doesn't mean it's bad but in order of our favorite dishes, we had:

• Brussel Sprouts - this is a side dish but it's got main course energy. I would undoubtedly order this by itself for take out. Place Carmin could open a side restaurant that ONLY makes this dish & it would be wildly successful. Yes, I'm hyping this up. No, I don't take it back.

• Bone Marrow - this is as good as the picture shows. I was surprised with the escargot & mushroom but the flavor was strong. Sharing is the way to go. It's very flavor forward so if you are this by yourself, it may get overwhelming but this dish also stands out.

• Soup of the Day - this dish, as the name suggests, changes but we had a cauliflower cream. It felt like such a home dish cooked by grandma. It took me back to my childhood in Montreal (I'm not from here - that's how good it is).

• Boston Lettuce - I am from Boston so you know I had to order this. The yogurt is everything. The croutons & texture all works in tandem. Take a picture (we failed to do so) but then mix it all & enjoy this.

• Arctic char à la Grenobloise - this is a big fish. Definitely for two. Yes, we order another main along with this & I regret nothing. I've never had such a large piece of dish cooked to perfection throughout. It's garnished with what felt something pickled & it complemented the charred earthy skin of the fish.

• Crêpe Suzette - this dish starts hot out of the kitchen as the video shows. It's delicate, not overwhelmingly sweet, & just what we needed after ordering 3/4 of the menu

• Surf & Turf - this also changes on the daily (I may be wrong). During our visit I believe it was a hangar steak with shrimp & scallops. It came with a sauce. Meat was perfectly cooked, juicy, & tender. Towards the end, the sauce was strong that gave it a saltier than preferred taste but still had no issues.

• Gnocchi - I've never had gnocchi the way served here & I absolutely would order it again. It comes over home made sauces that have a yogurt flavor. Great crunch outside & fluffy inside.

• Salmon Tartare - the salmon was mixed in with cucumber & came accompanied with lettuce, crackers, & French creme that helped balance the dish. It was a great start of the culinary journey

• French Fries - these came with surf & turf. Done well, but it's just French Fries

I want to end with a huge thank you to Place Carmin, it's kitchen for their amazing work, & front-of-house staff that made it unforgettable, particularly Jean-Michel. I will visit every time I'm in Montreal

Menu was great! Bone marrow was huge & delicious.

Servers were generally really good too. I tried to discretely pay my part of the bill because I didn't want my boss taking it all like he always does. The server did not make it possible for me to pay my plates & drinks. That was my only gripe - I tried to be discrete & ended up being outed in front of my dining party for trying to pay my share. I would've really appreciated if this was done with more professionalism.

I shall be back!!

The experienced at Place Carmin could have been so much better !

Service was great & atmosphere too. Unfortunately Brunch was very disappointing. Can you imagine going to a brunch & having the full table being hungry at the end of their meal ? So disappointed. The plates was so empty..

Une salle privée nous avait été réservée au 2ème étage afin de souligner l'anniversaire d'un ami. Un cocktail & de petites bouchées nous attendaient à notre arrivée. Par la suite, une table d'hôte super généreuse était offerte avec un choix de 3 menus. Superbe présentation & les aliments parfaitement cuisinés. Le service a été impeccable. Merci à toute l'équipe.

Fantastic food & incredible service. If you have a large group, highly recommend the tasting menu where you get to try all of the popular dishes. Jean Michelle was our server & he was very kind to our group + great about answering the questions we had.

On a fêté les 30 ans de ma grande amie ici. Menu 5 services pour 90$. Le service était vraiment impécable, merci 💕✨🍸 puisque nous étions in grand groupe, le pouboire était ajouté automatiquement, mais c'était inscrit dans le contrat initial!

I got really nice experience here. The restaurant atmosphere is nice. Environment is quiet & the service is good. Orange duck & the fillet are awesome, & I really love the scallop which is really refreshing. Other dishes are good as well. The price match the quality of their food. Wait time is not so long. Strongly recommended. I will revisit this restaurant if I come to Montreal again.

Un très bon restaurant, avec un très joli cadre ! J'ai jamais goûté des champignons aussi délicieux ! Je les recommande fortement ! La crème brûlée était trop bonne & les quantités très généreuses.
