Renoir Restaurant

I had high expectations for the Easter brunch on April 5th, especially given the higher price point & my past positive experiences with the regular Sunday brunch. Unfortunately, this visit was very disappointing.

The selection was extremely limited-no smoothies, no decaf options, & very few choices overall. The food itself was ordinary at best, lacking the quality & variety I've come to expect. Even more surprising, there was no way to have meat cooked to a preferred temperature, which is quite basic for a brunch of this level.

Service was also noticeably slow, which added to the underwhelming experience.

I used to come here regularly, about once a month, & always enjoyed it. This time, however, left me genuinely questioning whether I'll return. For what was marketed as a special Easter brunch, it felt very misleading & not worth the premium price.

We had a wonderful Sunday brunch at Renoir at the Sofitel Montréal, & it was truly a memorable experience.

Chef Félix Duquet was incredibly impressive - not only for the quality of the food, but also for the care & attention he gave to the guests. He personally came by to ensure everything was perfect & made us feel genuinely welcomed. That level of hospitality makes a big difference.

The brunch itself was outstanding: beautifully prepared dishes, refined flavors, & the kind of thoughtful presentation you expect from a top Montreal restaurant. Every plate felt carefully crafted & delicious.

A big thank you to Chef Félix & the Renoir team for making our Sunday brunch so special. We will definitely be back.

As I step into the restaurant at the Sofitel Hotel'Renoir', I'm thinking wow, nice upscale restaurant, & when I think of upscale restaurants, I think amazing service, amazing atmosphere & most of all amazing food. Well….. yes some parts of Renoir were great like the server we had was nice, polite & took to our every need, but I don't know if she was fairly new because I found she did not know her menu very well. The atmosphere was nice, well cleaned & not so loud. We could talk to each other without yelling which was nice. Now brings me to the food. Now I love food, & no I'm not a professional food connoisseur, but I do work in a kitchen & feel I know what people are looking for, well I know what I am looking for. Let's start with the appetizers & the amuse bouch. A corn soupish with edible flowers & some crunchy things was tasty & worth having again. Very flavourful & not too big as to fill you for your appetizers & meal. Next the appetizer, Quebec's tomato gazpacho ricotta espuma with basil oil. This was by far the best thing I ate at Renoir. The flavour & aroma was on point. First time I ate gazpacho & now I'm hooked, so thank you for that. Then comes the main course. Let's just say after eating the gazpacho I was a little disappointed. The amount of food for the price. Yes it was duck & sure I expected to pay a bit more for duck but what I received was surprisingly small. So then you expect it to be amazing in flavour, well sorry to disappoint you it was just ok. & what's up with the leaf roll. I found does not match the story going on the plate. So let's move to dessert. If I understand correctly they have a baker in the kitchen & the cakes are made in house. I ordered the pistachio cake, very nice light & tasty. Has raspberry inside. Very good. All in All not a horrible experience. But I will mention it took very long to get the food from the kitchen to the table & it was not a busy Sunday by any means.

AMAZING
We had an exceptional experience once again. Rhonda & I are repeat customers, & continue to be consistently impressed by the superior quality of their Sunday brunch. We are to be married on Saturday, June 14th & I wanted to take Rhonda for a nice, relaxing Sunday brunch where we could step away from everything wedding & just enjoy each other at a stress free outting. The recent renovations exceeded our expectations, providing an ideal setting for everything from business lunches to romantic brunches. The food selection is extensive & among the finest we've encountered for a Sunday brunch anywhere in the world. The wet scrambled eggs & potatoes dauphinoise are particularly noteworthy. We were ecstatic to see the wet scrambled eggs are still part of the brunch experience. We highly recommend Renior for your weekday lunch, a weekly get-together with friends & especially for a romantic Sunday brunch.⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?⭐?
