Une belle experience gastronomique inoubliable que je dois absolument souligner le Restaurant Benjamin pour sa soupe @ l'oignon gratine. Cette soupe est la meilleure dans la ville de Montreal. Ma mere adore la soupe @ l'oignon gratine & j'etais super contente que j'ai pu trouver ce resto en plein coeur du Centre-Ville de Montreal @ quelques pas de la station de metro McGill ligne verte de STM. On a aussi commande le plat principal hamburger' Wagyu'. C'est un plat delicieux & gagnant excellent. Nous etions decus @ notre retour cette fois-ci
la soupe @ l'oignon gratine n'etait pas au menu par contre nous avons essaye un plat de filet mignon servi avec un accompagnement d'artichauts grilles, tres juteux & delicieux. Nous avons mentionne de garder la soupe @ l'oignon gratine un item qu'il faut absolument garde pour toutes les 4 saisons car c'est
' SI BON!' Merci pour le bel accueil & service de l'equipe. Juliette est une excellente 5* serveuse. Au plaisir, Missy A.
We went on a Friday evening as last minute decision - we were pleasantly surprised. Got a perfectly cooked steak flank (bavette) with fries. The sauce had the right amount of peppery notes while the fries were well seasoned. Got a Paris brest for dessert that was also very good. When the dessert is good & not an after thought, you know the restaurant cares. Finally, impeccable service. Our waiter was professional, attentive, friendly, & prompt. He easily switched between French & English, which is always appreciated. This is not a superficial restaurant, the stars are well deserved. Happy we have a solid addition to the downtown scene.
A beautiful restaurant with gracious & kind service.
The food was beautiful & delicious even though we went at an in-between time. The portion sizes were inconsistent for the same meal, which i found odd

We had an outstanding dinner at Restaurant Benjamin. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was elegant yet welcoming, making it the perfect setting for a special evening.
What truly made our experience exceptional, though, was our server, Valter. He was attentive without ever being intrusive, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, & offered wonderful recommendations that made our meal even better. His professionalism, warmth, & genuine hospitality made us feel like valued guests throughout the evening.
If you're looking for a memorable dining experience in Montreal, I can't recommend Benjamin enough. Be sure to ask for Valter if you can-he truly made our evening unforgettable. We'll definitely be back!
Just went there with a few friends for some dinner & the manager (Anne Marie, i think) was very helpful & nice. The server & bartender Julien & Alandra were very friendly & professional. Will definitely come back!!!
my boyfriend & I came here for the first time about two weeks ago to celebrate our anniversary. the appetizers were absolutely wonderful. the tuna platter we ordered was so soft & tender! the martinis were delicious & as for our steak..it was possibly the best steak we've ever had! the server was very knowledgable about the sauces & helped us choose the best one for our steaks. they were perfectly cooked & so so delicious (we are quite particular about steaks, we had absolutely no complaints here!). the only mishap was the fact that the wine we ordered was an expired bottle which had gone bad. we brought it up to the sommelier & they told us they would bring us a new one. however, maybe due to miscommunications during dinner rush on a weekend night, we didn't receive our new bottle until dessert time. the staff were lovely & kindly took the wine bottle off our tab. since we already had a great experience, it wasn't a big issue for us. I would like to thank the team at Benjamin for their great hospitality & service, we cannot wait to come back here & we recommended this place to all our friends!
