Restaurant de l'ITHQ Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
RegionalMarketBrunchFine Dining / UpscaleGreat selection of wines
The Restaurant de l'ITHQ on rue Saint-Denis is open year round, morning, noon and evening. Through its refined cuisine, prepared with the freshest Québec products, the Restaurant de l'ITHQ is a testament to the quality of the culinary training provided at the leading hotel school that is the ITHQ. The service staff's know-how, particularly in terms of food and wine pairing, further enhances the patron experience. Its peaceful and cosy ambience, bathed in natural light, is heightened by a splendid view of Square Saint-Louis, which is located right in front. During the week, the kitchen and dining room welcome ITHQ students who are nearing completion of their program and, under the vigilant eye of their professors, are putting into practice what they learned in class.

Review Summary

Reviews consistently describe Restaurant de l'ITHQ as a refined, imaginative dining experience that blends creative Quebecois cuisine with attentive service delivered by students under supervision. The tasting menus with wine pairings are frequently praised for balance, thoughtful presentations, and a focus on local ingredients, while the setting is described as elegant, comfortable, well lit, and conveniently located near the Sherbrooke metro with parking nearby. The pre dinner bar experience and the wine program are highlighted for helpful explanations and solid recommendations, and the overall service is courteous and professional, even as some visits note longer waits or a tempo that reflects training in progress. Portions are sometimes considered on the small side and some guests feel value could be stronger for the price, with occasional variability in flavor depth or originality across dishes. Despite these caveats, the consensus is that the quality, technique, and experience are consistently high, making it a memorable destination to observe the learning process in a fine dining context, especially for tasting menus and special occasions, with many guests promising to return.

The atmosphere may have been sparse because of the heavy rain but the restaurant was pretty empty. The service was excellent, attentive & friendly with explanations from the young staff. The food was good & you have to bear in mind that for this type of dining the good price was good. We found the offering a bit « bread heavy ». Sourdough with the first delicate taster & bread on the starter as well as croutons on the main but this might be a Canadian thing. Very glad we went.

Very nice atmosphere, service, & well thought out menu. This is an elegant & relaxing place to dine. Very nice to have an amuse bouche before dinner. The service was attentive, the plates beautifully presented, the service was also professional & discreet. The music selection was sedate & appreciated. The music did not overwhelm the atmosphere nor muffle conversation. Appreciated table linen & comfortable chairs. A nice place to celebrate life milestones.

I had a fantastic dining experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely great-each dish was bursting with flavor & beautifully presented. The service was also incredibly attentive, with the staff making sure our every need was met. What stood out the most was that the food wasn't just a meal, but an experience in itself. You can tell that only the finest ingredients were used in every item, making each bite truly memorable. Highly recommend!

The food was a delight for the eye & tastebuds. Smooth & attentive service. We were delayed arriving for lunch, but at no time were we rushed to finish our meal. In total a perfect culinary experience.

Except for that the menu online was different from what was offered at the restaurant, everything was great. Nice attentive service, & amazing food & drink. We will go back since they change the menu seasonally, to take advantage of the local offerings...
