We visited the restaurant the day before Valentine's Day, hoping to enjoy the regular à la carte menu. Unfortunately, we were informed that only the Valentine's set menu was available. It was $85 per person & included an amuse-bouche, a choice of appetizer, a choice of main course from 2 options, & dessert. Amuse-bouche & dessert were great. My friends' beetroot salad also didn't disappoint. Unfortunately, the scallops I ordered were cut in half, making them quite thin, which affected both texture & taste. The braised beef all of us had was also disappointing, as it did not seem cooked long enough to achieve the tenderness one expects from a braised dish. On a positive note, the service was impeccable - attentive, professional, & very courteous. They handled our feedback about the beef very well & kindly did not charge us for the drinks as a gesture of apology, which we appreciated. Overall, while the service was excellent, the food & value did not meet our expectations, & we left feeling somewhat disappointed.

Nous y sommes allées pour le 31 pour le nouvel an & l'expérience fut géniale ! Le restaurant était chic & convivial. L'ambiance était au rendez-vous & le 7 services proposé était très bon. Nous tenons également à souligner le service impeccable & irréprochable du serveur Hassane. Il était accueillant, souriant & très rapide. Tous les serveurs semblaient souriants & très gentils.

Update 2026 : arrive à 9:50, personne n'est venu me voir à 10:10 même si plusieurs tables autour sont arrivés après moi, servi & commandes avant que j'arrive. J'essaye d'accoster le maître d'hôtel à plusieurs reprises, lui qui m'avait dit que si j'arrivais à 10h je devrais commander en arrivant car ils fermaient à cette heure là.

Finalement j'ai arrêté une gentille serveuse qui a été surpris de me voir sur place sans avoir été servi par qui que ce soit, elle m'a alors pris en charge.

Automne 2025 : Resto tranquille & accessible même si d'apparence chic. Les repas sont pas super grosses portions serveuse très gentille.

My first meal in Montreal & it really set the standard which unfortunately means everything I've had after has been a disappointment.

Set inside the Sofitel hotel this place is best described as a culinary experience. The chef plays with flavors & textures using unique flavors without overpowering you into submission.

It's a subtle dance, teasing & flirting until you fall in love. We ordered the sea water jelly, foie gras, Canadian pike lobster bisque to start with the Chef D'otel, duck breast, pasta with porcini mushrooms & a kids Salmon.

Let's start with the miso bread! Holy smokes it was delicious. Kids salmon is well portioned & they have this decadent orange sauce. Great crust & moist. Sea water jelly with lobster was out of this world. Foie gras was buttery & their brioche was light & fluffy. The duck breast & pasta were good but the star was the Chef d'otel which came with a lobster bisque, a cod which were divine! Never had anything like it. Flavors were subtle & complex highlighting textures & colors.

Don't sleep on the dessert. Like the meal they were uniquely refreshing & fun. Our family including two young daughters gobbled everything up & we were stuffed!

I had a Manhattan cocktail to start & if it was any indication, the cherry was very not your run of the mill.

Best way to describe our experience was a curated collection of wonderful ingredients. Service was friendly, engaging & prompt. We felt catered too & celebrating my mom's birthday with a sparkler on her dessert.

I wish we had more photos but we were just too excited to capture everything. May need to go back isn't the excuse to get photos.

Comme première expérience au Renoir, c'était bien, mais sans plus. Le tataki de boeuf était trop sucré à mon goût & le magret de canard un peu petit. Dans l'ensemble, c'était correct, mais j'ai trouvé le tout assez cher pour ce que c'était. Par contre, Thomas nous a offert un excellent service!
