Nestled in downtown Montreal’s Golden Square Mile district, Ristorante Beatrice is an Italian eatery with an affection for flavour and style. Our one-of-a-kind gastronomical experience is inspired entirely by gioia di vivere; we offer refined modern Italian food in an urban oasis. Guests can dine on our terrace, an intimate and lavish garden in the heart of the city.
Reviews for Ristorante Beatrice highlight outstanding food and usually solid service, with praised dishes such as filet mignon, cavatelli, fettucine and truffle specials, as well as carpaccio and cannoli, and a wine program noted for interesting pairings. The service is repeatedly described as attentive, knowledgeable and courteous, though a few accounts mention moments of haste or inconsistency and occasional upselling. Ambiance elicits mixed feelings: many find it elegant and immaculate, while others describe the setting as bland, cold, or overly polished in a way that clashes with the food. Some diners call the experience superb and worth a visit, including special wine dinner events, while others feel the value is questionable given price and atmosphere. Overall the place comes across as a destination for strong food and friendly service, with impressions of atmosphere and value varying by guest.
I'm not one to pay any particular attention to the service at a restaurant if the food is good, but the team here is so efficient it has to be mentioned. Attention to detail & care in the service & sharing of orders are unmatched. Food is also great. Ambiance is a little lackluster & feels like I'm at a random wedding hall for a dinner, but who cares when the rest of the experience is fantastic.
This is such a lovely restaurant!! Terrific ambiance & service, fabulous food. Recommend the Cacio E Pepe, one of the more affordable dishes on the menu & really spectacular. Yes, we also got the filet mignon, & it was just as good as everyone says, perfect preparation (be aware that the red wine sauce has a little sweetness to it). A real highlight was the salted caramel ice cream cake, seventeen stars! Would definitely visit again next time we come to Montreal!
the ceasar salad can be given a 6 star. Chicken dish was generous & meat was very tender. Would return just for the ceasar salad anytime. The tagliolino nero was average & a bit over priced compared to the other entrees. Lamb shops interestingly only had 4 pieces of meat without any vegetables or sides on the plate. Panna water & pellegrino was the same price as a Moretti beer. Service was attentive & efficient. Atmosphere was warm & inviting.
My first night in Montreal & this restaurant was outstanding. Our waiter Nick was fantastic, all the wait staff were attentive, friendly & very helpful. The ambiance was lovely & the food amazing!

I don't even know where to start! Thank you Beatrice for making our engagement dinner something we will never forget. From the moment we walked in the door it felt like we were treated like royalty! The service was absolutely incredible - so much so that we STILL rave about it over a week later. I have never seen such a dedicated staff & to be quite honest, none of us have ever had a service this exceptional. If I could give 10 stars to the service, I absolutely would. Of course the food was absolutely AMAZING. From sharing the starters & a pasta dish, right into our main courses, everything was absolutely delectable. I personally had the lamb chops & wow - the best lamb I have ever had (& kudos for the suggestion). Topping our meal off with a special dessert & sparkle to celebrate my fiance & I was just the perfect special touch. We will never forget our experience at Beatrice & it is quite a special place to eat. We will certainly be back & will highly recommend to anyone & everyone we know in MTL! Cheers to Beatrice. 20/10 stars for sure!!
In a realm of bliss, where flavors dance & thrive, A symphony of tastes, where senses come alive. Where every detail, from ambiance to cuisine, Creates a perfect harmony, a culinary dream.
Let me start by the fact that the food is amazing. We were a group of 8 & everything from the salad, the tartare, the octopus, to the fish, the lamb chops… everything was beautifully made. The place is so beautiful & the atmosphere is great & warm.
I usually tend to review on place & not on google, but didn’t get the chance/the energy for it tonight. But here it is;
The only negative thing was the service.
I am reading the reviews & it seems to be a rare experience but i think that it would be helpful to review for the better. Our serveur Dave, was definitely not professional tonight. You know when a customer asks for help to choose from ur menu, u can answer by ur best seller plate or maybe ur personal choice. No need to reply by:”did u read the menu sir?”. I find it rude a bit.
Second, bringing the bill before we asked for it, & assuming it will be one bill…maybe check with us or ask us before putting someone in that position.
Third, maybe wait for us to finish our transaction before pulling the terminal with the card inside.
It seems to me that the service was rushed in a rude way. Its a shame because the place/food are great.
I believe in the customer service & in the experience. When you go to a restaurant u are not only paying for a product but for a whole experience. I find it disappointing to go to a place with such a high standard & get this kind of service from the “salle manager” himself.
Although, the other waiter (no name) who took care of some of our drinks was so nice.
Regardless, we thank you for the delicious food & i hope this leads to an improvement.
The Focaccia bread they served is the best in town😋
Nice service & atmosphere.
We tried from the appetizers shrimp Tempura & it was so delicious, Burrata salad also so yummy, & the grilled lamb chops must try it .
