In creating Toqué!, more than twenty years ago, we wanted to showcase the Quebec products and the work of those who supply us. We want more than ever to acknowledge the contribution of these suppliers who deserve the glorious title of artisans. We owe them the foie gras or samphire; lamb or vegetables, seafood or herbs. These tireless artisans inspire the cuisine of Toqué! to which they bring the flavors, textures and natural aromas of irreproachable freshness. We are members of Relais & Châteaux and Grandes Tables du Monde.
Toqué. is widely regarded as a premier destination in Montréal, celebrated for its high-level culinary consistency, dedication to seasonal Québec ingredients, and sophisticated atmosphere. Many guests highlight the tasting menu and wine pairings as a highlight of their experience, noting the artistic presentation and the disciplined, technical precision brought to every dish. While the setting is often described as elegant and refined, the staff are frequently praised for their warm, attentive, and professional service that helps facilitate memorable celebrations and special occasions. Although some visitors find the pricing to be a significant investment, the majority view the experience as a worthwhile reflection of its reputation for excellence in fine dining.
Absolutely enjoyable experience from start to finish. Exceptional service throughout the evening. We enjoyed the tasting menu, each course an adventure for your taste buds & all beautifully presented. The decor & ambiance made for a relaxing dining experience with the perfect pacing of food.
Une très belle expérience que je suis contente d'avoir vécue. Nous avons choisi le menu dégustation en six services afin de découvrir un plus grand éventail de plats, accompagné de l'accord mets-vins. Comme nous ne sommes pas amateurs de vins de dessert, nous en avons discuté avec notre serveur, qui nous a proposé une excellente alternative avec des vins plus secs. Son écoute & ses suggestions ont vraiment été appréciées.
Ce n'est peut-être pas le meilleur repas que j'ai mangé de ma vie, mais ce n'était pas non plus ce que je recherchais. Je voulais avant tout vivre l'expérience d'un restaurant étoilé Michelin, découvrir des saveurs, des techniques & un service d'exception. De ce côté-là, les attentes ont été largement comblées. Le service a été exemplaire du début à la fin, attentionné sans être envahissant, & toute l'expérience en valait vraiment la peine.
Comme nous célébrions notre anniversaire de mariage, nous avons également eu une délicate attention : une carte signée par le chef Normand Laprise. Ce petit geste a rendu cette soirée encore plus mémorable.
Oui, c'est un repas qui représente un investissement important. Mais lorsqu'on choisit ce type d'établissement, on paie autant pour l'expérience que pour l'assiette. De notre côté, nous ne regrettons absolument pas cette soirée. C'était une expérience unique que nous referions avec plaisir pour une occasion spéciale.
We had the most amazing experience at toque. While we walked in with all the intentions of having the tasting menu, we decided to go for the ala carte option because it appealed to us.
First. The complimentary sourdough & squash-miso butter was glorious with just the amount of tang & unctuousness. Second, the amouse bouche was decadent, yet fresh. The pea tartelette with the velouté sauce was a delight. Finally, the poppy seed encrusted chocolate truffle finale was just the right cherry on the cake.
We loved everything we tried from the lobster, the sea bass, the lamb & the raspberry crémeaux. Even the coffee was delicious & somehow not marked up beyond a regular cafe.
The service was most exquisite. Attentive, funny & just the right amount of sass. Well done to the team. We will be back here for sure!

Toqué was superb! The service. The food. The ambience. Just superb. We opted for à la carte versus the tasting menu & totally enjoyed our choices. Yes it's pricey but it's that type of restaurant! If you're on the fence.. Go! You won't be disappointed
We ordered the tasting menu. The meat was so tough you couldn't cut through it. Food was terrible except the dessert. The service was annoying as they constantly interrupted our conversation to pour water when are cups were still full.$800 for 2 people & was not even good. We expected a wow factor for that price!
Brought my golden retriever hoping to find a patio spot on a quiet Tuesday night, & the staff at Toqué! went out of their way to make us both feel genuinely welcome. The sommelier actually came outside to chat with us while we waited for our table, which felt like such a warm touch. I ordered the aged duck with roasted root vegetables & it was honestly one of the best things I've eaten in Montreal, perfectly balanced & beautifully plated. If you have a dog & you're looking for a fine dining experience that doesn't make you feel like an afterthought, this is the place.
