We celebrated our first month of marriage at the bar & had the 4-course dinner menu with wine pairings. Each dish, from amuse-bouche, to dessert was divine. Fresh, creative & delicious. We especially loved the carrot salad first course & the gnocchi & chanterelles main dish. Chef Myriam presented us with a surprise dish: her stuffed & battered zucchini flowers - they were a wonderful treat! The raspberry pavlova was pure heaven. The wine pairings were very well-executed. I especially loved the the St-Véran, a Chardonnay from Burgundy - it was a true delight to discover!
It was our first time here at Rose Ross. We came here for a birthday dinner. Friendly & attentive staff. Our waiter explained the menu in detail. Love that the menu changes once in a while depending on seasons. We had the scallop crudo, grilled octopus, gnocchi with seared scallops, lamb dish & the staple dessert choux. Everything was absolutely delicious. 10/10. He also picked out some wines for us that pairs well with the dishes we had. Would definitely come back again whenever we're back in Montreal!
Outstanding table d'hôte & wine pairing. Excellent service, fresh, seasonal local plates & great wine recommendations. One of my faves in Montreal. Chloe was a delight👌 & made us have a memorable dinner experience.

I've been wanting to visit Rose Ross for a long time, & I was really happy that I finally did it for the Montréal à Table event. The restaurant is beautifully decorated, the full wall of wine bottles adds such a charming atmosphere to the space. It's a small restaurant, but very cozy.
The service was perfect, maybe a bit over-faked at times, but still attentive & friendly. For my starter, I ordered the Choux de Bruxelles salad, & it was amazing. The mix of crispy choux, fresh vegetables, & that citrusy sauce with a hint of pepper created a really nice balance of flavors.
For the main course, I had the filet de truite with vegetables, cooked well, flavorful, & beautifully presented. For dessert, I took the cake aux pêches which was just okay. I was a bit disappointed, as I expected more flavor & a more moist texture. It was also slightly burned on the outside.
Considering it was a special Montréal à Table menu, I found the pricing very reasonable for the quality & atmosphere.
My friend ordered the gros choux dessert, which came with a small $4 extra charge, but it was absolutely worth it. The presentation was beautiful, & the taste was even better.
Eating at Rose Ross is always a delight: the food is thoughtfully & beautifully prepared, the service warm & impeccable, & the wine pairings totally delicious. Plus, where else can you eat in a dining room made to look like an old-school train dining car?One of my favourite places to eat in the city.
I came here with my boyfriend & his father. Everyone loved the atmosphere & said the food was excellent.
I have a seafood allergy & the server was very careful about informing me which dishes I could have & what changes the kitchen could make to certain plates.
The wine selection was also fabulous! I will come here again sometime soon.
Each dish is a delicious creative yet comforting combination of local & seasonal food.
We were a party of 3 who likes sharing plates so we got to taste a good chunk of the menu from appetizers to desserts, & I already know I will have a hard time picking next time since everything was so good.
The atmosphere was pretty nice, I liked the style, but especially appreciated the effort on sound quality (dampening & good speakers), that kept it cozy & not a loud place like so many places.
Service was on point, I could nitpick about the first wine pairing being a bit late, but the waitress made up for it.
What a great experience. Calm, cozy, charming. Excellent service, delicious food & awesome ambience (even in the bathroom!!!)The wine pairing for the menu was perfect! Recommended!
