Le Richmond proposes a refined cuisine from Northern Italy with Piedmontese, Venetian and Emilia-Romagna influences that accentuate the freshness of the ingredients. The restaurant’s polished menu features and is designed around local and regional products. With freshness front and centre, the selection showcases seasonal foods as well as cherished products that have been privately imported from small producers in Italy.
Occupying an industrial space that dates back to the 1800s, Le Richmond also offers an enticing ambiance in a decor that marries the building’s original materials with more contemporary finishes. With indoor seating for 140 plus another 70 in the inner courtyard, Le Richmond is by far the largest restaurant in Griffintown.
Le Richmond comes across as a stylish yet welcoming venue that suits everything from intimate dinners to weddings and large celebrations. The atmosphere is frequently described as beautiful, elegant yet comfortable with warm lighting and a lively vibe. The menu earns praise for flavor and technique, with standout items such as beef carpaccio, burrata, lobster ravioli, snow crab agnolotti, rib steak, duck breast, and rack of lamb, plus a variety of desserts that impress. The service is often noted as attentive and professional, with guests appreciating thoughtful wine pairings and smooth coordination during events, though a few reviews mention crowded seating on popular nights and occasional slower or uneven service. Le Richmond is repeatedly recommended for regular dining and special occasions alike, seen as a versatile, high quality destination with a strong wedding and private event reputation, striking presentation, and an emphasis on a memorable experience, even if some diners feel value for money can vary depending on the night.
I was at Richmond for valentines dinner. We had a great time. The place is beautiful, our server was amazing & proposed very good wine options that perfectly paired with our food. The buratta was very tasty, tuna tartare was fresh & flavorful & the rib steak was just wow. I will be back.

What a fantastic modern restaurant. It strikes that perfect balance between stylish & comfortable, with just the right touch of class without feeling stiff. The décor is beautifully done & creates an atmosphere that feels both lively & inviting. The food is outstanding, thoughtfully prepared & full of flavor in every bite. It's the kind of place where you settle in, enjoy the vibe, & don't want the evening to end. A truly great dining experience from start to finish.
Went to celebrate a birthday with about 40 people. It's a beautiful place. Coffee was very good. We started with a platter of croissants & chocolatines, fresh fruits, a little borata with cherry tomatoes. Then we had 3 choices: Omelette, French Toast or Eggs Benedict with salmon. I had the Eggs Benedict which was very good. We finished with a lovely platter of little lemon tarts, millefeuille, cheese cakes, & tiramisu. Will have to run a marathon to burn it off but it was all really good & a fun party.
We recently had the pleasure of capturing photo & video for a wedding at Richmond Restaurant in Montreal, & everything was absolutely perfect. The venue is stunning , a beautiful mix of elegance & modern charm, with great lighting & atmosphere that made every shot look amazing.
The staff were incredibly professional & accommodating throughout the day, making our work seamless & enjoyable. From the setup to the service & the food, every detail was top-notch.
Highly recommended not only as a dining experience but also as a fantastic wedding venue!
That being said, service was slow. Also, we were there for brunch. A few people had eggs benedict. All of them were overcooked, with some the yolk on some of them being hard. The staff brought new eggs & even those were overcooked.
I don't expect I will return but if I did, I might get some sandwich from the coffee counter instead.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Ertan for our wedding, & he was truly an angel throughout the entire process. Throughout the whole process, he made us feel like family. He took the time to really understand our vision & was always proactive with his feedback & suggestions, which made planning feel so much easier & more enjoyable.
The venue itself was stunning, so much character & charm that we barely needed to decorate. Our guests couldn't stop complimenting the food & drinks, which were exceptional. On the day of the wedding, everything flowed seamlessly. The coordination was flawless, & we felt so at ease knowing everything was handled so perfectly.
If I could have a time machine, I would relive that day over & over again. To Ertan & the entire Richmond team thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us the most beautiful day of our lives.
I celebrated my fifth anniversary with my spouse last night, & it was truly magical. Melissa had taken care of arranging a beautiful bouquet for me because I wanted to surprise her. When we arrived, the ambiance was perfect, & the decor was stunning. The hostess invited us to enjoy a complimentary glass of champagne in the lounge before heading to our table. After relaxing & being impressed by the service, we were led to our table, which was the most romantic setup I've ever seen. It was absolutely perfect. We shared a rib steak, which was cooked to perfection (medium), & the cut was beautiful. We had an incredible meal & the most perfect time at The Richmond. Special thanks to our server, Jérémy, & to Melissa & Patrick for hosting. It's a perfect venue for all types of gatherings-whether it's with friends, couples, happy hour, or weddings. I highly recommend it!
I went for a wedding, the service & stafc were outstanding. Manager Alex was tip top, the bartender Timothee was the best. They were making delicious cocktails well executed & were alot of fun. Great selection of booze. The food was ok. My cod was delicious & not overcooked. My salad was a bit tired. Appetizers were on point & my friend steak was cooked to perfection but it was not finished on the grill . Beautiful room, huge washroom area that was gorgeous. Amazing place for weddings & events. Thank you staff for a hell of a night.
Beautiful & charming setting. Love the terrasse, lush greenery with luxury chandeliers. Perfect that it has a retractable roof for rain or shine experience! Jazz & Soho nights are the best vibes! Food is spectacular, from pasta to steak. Pastries are artisanal! The staff will make your night! High recommend.
Had the most amazing experience with Jonathan for my mom's birthday. He made sure we had everything to make us feel special & Bassim was there to suggest the best wine & cocktails. Very qualified employees. New menu is also very flavoured & beautifully presented.
