What an absolute delight in so many ways! Recently spent a few days in Montreal & stumbled upon this gem. First of all, the atmosphere is just stunning. Small, quaint & comfortably intimate. The espresso martini is the best I have ever had & I will dream of it. We skipped appetizers as we weren't as hungry as I wished I would have been. Our mains were absolutely phenomenal! Crab stuffed pasta with a lobster tail & just sinfully delicious. Well prepared & beautiful presentation. Highly recommend! Priced very reasonably we thought for the overall meal & experience!

My visit to Montreal was only five days long, so I had to be selective about which restaurants made the cut from the city's endless list of amazing options. But when I came across L'osso on TikTok, I knew I had to include it-& I'm so glad I did.
It was amazing. My friend (who is a chef & culinary school graduate) & I walked in curious, & walked out beyond happy. You know how they say'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach?' Well, L'Osso found its way into two girls' hearts that night-& we left very, very, very happy.
We started with warm bread & olive oil, along with a complimentary bruschetta. The bread was soft, fresh, & warm enough to make me want 50 more, & the bruschetta was perfectly savory & fresh-an exciting start.
We ordered two dishes:
1. Gnocchi in tomato sauce - It literally melted in my mouth. Rich, savory, & comforting-it touched my soul.
2. Mushroom ravioli - My personal favorite. I still dream about it. The dish had the perfect umami flavor, & the sauce-though not creamy in ingredients-had a rich, velvety texture that made it feel incredibly indulgent. The ravioli was soft & filling, & the cheese (Parmesan, I think) tied everything together beautifully. We dipped our still-warm bread into the sauce-it was marvellous.
We ended with a chocolate lava cake, & it was the perfect dessert to close such a satisfying experience.
The restaurant was fairly quiet that night-it was snowing & freezing outside (not that it stopped me, haha)-but according to our kind & attentive server, it's usually more lively. The interior was elegant & cozy, with a vibe that felt intimate & romantic.
Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience-from the food to the ambiance to the service. If I lived in Montreal, I'd find myself returning just for that mushroom ravioli every few weeks. Highly recommend!
Beautiful evening at l'osso. We were a group of 6 & did a sharing style menu because the whole menu looked fantastic. & we were right. From the foie gras entree & truffle buratta with Iberica ham all the way to the fresh homemade mushroom raviolis & bistecca fiorentina everything was on point !!!! The service was also spectacular , the servers were very attentive & referred some great wines & cocktails. I recommend for a date night or groups. Will definitely be returning !!!
