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.
This is truly a fine establishment! I can only praise.
Everything from the appetizers to the desserts is simply spectacular, only surpassed by the flawless service.
The servers were very knowledgeable, attentive & courteous. Most restaurants would try to upsell & get you to order dessert but we actually appreciated that the server recommended dessert to us because it was truly that good!
The portions were also really good. You will not leave empty.

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!
As someone who frequents fine dining on a regular basis this restaurant is not it . Food was delicious but service is TERRIBLE. We waited a bit & had to finally ask the busboy to get a waiter . Served our food & didn't see the waiter for the rest of the night ( he spent most of his time at the same table across) so didn't order more.Another person dropped off the terminal & walk away . If you want fine dining this will not be it, the food was delicious but unfortunately ruined by awful service . Will make you feel irrelevant as a customer . I would recommend overlooking this establishment if you wish to have a fine dining experience .
We booked Beatrice for our wedding & cannot recommend it enough. Daniela was fantastic throughout the planning process & a pleasure to work with. Claudio & team made sure everything was perfect & delivered an amazing service from early evening well into the morning; no request was too big or small. There was always someone checking on our guests while food came out like clockwork. Our bartender David was also incredible, personable & made amazing drinks & shots throughout the night while making time to chat & even take a few photos. Finally, the food was simply amazing & we received compliments with every course, & in messages in days after, including about the sommelier's wine selection. Huge thanks to the team at Beatrice for making our big day an elegant, fun & delicious success.
We found this place by mistake while we were searching for restaurants near our hotel! We loved the restaurant vibe, the welcoming & friendly staff & the food that was super tasty!! Very recommended restaurant with a very romantic & cozy vibe!
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!!
I would recommend this restaurant. I wanted a fancy, classic & nice place to seat relax & chit-chat & have proper dinner without needing to shout over the table to hear each others! We were there for 4hours! Food was amazing for all courses, & compare to other 4-5 star restaurants, amazingly cheaper, very professional & friendly! I love it.

Food is excellent, service is even better. Provided by courteous & smiling staff. The one thing for the owner, the chairs on the second floor could be refreshed, they are not as confortable as I would have appreciated. But overall would strongly recommend for date night.
We had a dinner & were ordered pastas & some appetizer. They were all tasty & fresh . Also, desserts were delicious. We were visiting Montreal & definitely it is a good restaurant to visit .. highly recommended!!
The octopus tasted like it was previously frozen & then cooked had old & fishy taste. The squid ink pasta doesn’t contain any fresh squid ink & squid ink sacks. It just was black pasta from a package no real ink at all. The only dish was good & I can recommend was braised veal cheeks tortelloni. We had much better Italian food in simple restaurants in Montreal & Toronto
