En créant Toqué!, il y a plus de vingt ans, nous tenions à mettre en valeur les produits du terroir québécois et le travail de ceux qui nous ravitaillaient. Nous tenons plus que jamais à souligner la contribution de ces fournisseurs qui méritent le titre glorieux d’artisans. Nous leur devons le foie gras de canard ou la salicorne; l’agneau ou les petits légumes, les fruits de mer ou les fines herbes. Ces infatigables artisans inspirent la cuisine de Toqué! à laquelle ils apportent des saveurs, des textures et des arômes naturels d’une irréprochable fraîcheur. Nous sommes membres Relais & Châteaux et des Grandes Tables du Monde.

Went for lunch, amazing food & service, surprised me positively. Had an off-menu lobster/asparagus dish (very good), a pasta dish with mushrooms & other stuff (strong woodsy flavor that I loved), & a maple-based dessert (amazing). They have good optional wine pairings in the lunch table d'hote menu with half-glass or full-glass options which is great if you don't want to drink too much, & unlike most high-end wine pairings worldwide, these actually pair well with the dishes. Will probably come back for the dinner menu next time I'm in town.
Foie gras de canard, doré, & chocolate torte were an excellent mix of flavours with perfect presentation. Rioja wine pairing worked well. The limoncello-chartreuse-gin cocktail of the day was well balanced but could have had better presentation considering how elaborate the food was. Excellent service from both the hostess & server. Friendly, helpful, & efficient. Cute decor, could have put a little more effort into music.
Fabulous fine dining showcasing local Quebec producers with seasonal offerings . Superbly presented food with exceptional service & a huge wine list assisted by a great Sommelier . What a treat !

I had an incredible 3-hour experience with their 7-course tasting menu! My favorites were the beef steak, quail, & two desserts. The beef & quail were exceptionally tender, & the accompanying sauces were bursting with flavor. Both dishes had a divine aroma when they arrived. Even though I'm not usually a fan of sweet dishes, I thoroughly enjoyed their desserts. They struck a perfect balance, not overly sweet, & the sorbet with sponge cake combination was delightful. The meal began with a brown butter mousse amuse-bouche, followed by the sea urchin as the first course. While the brown butter mousse was delicious, the sea urchin lacked a bit of its distinctive flavor for my taste. Unfortunately, the complimentary bread was served cold & didn't make much of an impression compared to the other outstanding dishes. The service was fantastic. They efficiently cleaned our table, & water & wine refills were prompt. However, I found the ambiance to be a bit noisy compared to Europea, where I had dined previously. Overall, it was a memorable night at this restaurant.
If you want to admire beautiful plates & taste no flavor, drink champagne in wine glasses & regret the aftertaste, pay an exorbitant price for mediocre food & be harassed at the door for a tip, then you might enjoy #Toqué. As for me, the place left a bitter taste in the mouth. The maître-D who stations himself at the door to shake down the tourist patrons for a tip, is an ill mannered brut who would be better suited as bouncer at a club. As one of the best restaurants in Montreal, the quality is less than distasteful. #mauvaisapétit
Overall a very good experience eating here. Reasonably good selection of dishes for lunch. The wine list is also wuite interesting. Service is friendly & welcoming.
I did the tasting menu here 20 years ago & it was the best meal I had in my life until that point. This week I brought my husband here for the first time. We did the tasting menu again it was great. What really set it apart was the service & attention to every detail. My husband order a unique beer to drink & the server was able to recommend on of my favorite wines by me only telling him what I liked & didn't. The food came & each plate was a different experience. It was a very enjoyable evening.
TL:DR- Excellent tasting menu & wine pairing, expensive & time consuming. We had the tasting menu & the discovery wine pairing. Each dish & wine pair were explained as they came, so I'll cover them roughly; Amuse bouche- smoked fish & shitake mushrooms in a dashi broth. First course- Marinated scallops (also on the A La Carte menu), with an Austrian reisling, a 2021 Heiligenstein Second course- Salmon gravlax(from the a la carte also), with a 2022 Les Safres chateauneuf du Pape. Third course- either Foie gras terrine( on the a la carte also) & a 2021 Cuvee Domain Juracon or Sea Snails with a green sauce, & a 2021 Barrell aged assrytiko from Santorini Fourth course- A turkey & cranberry filled pasta, with a 2021 Santa Barbara Pinot Noir, Presqu'ile Fifth course(main)- grass fed Quebec beef filets, & a 2015 Jean Pierre Gaussen, Bandol Sixth course- Clos-des-Roches & Le Fleurmier de Charlevoix cheese plate with a Thunevin calet Maury, 1984', or a pre dessert sweet, cinnamon & maple sorbets with caramel popcorn & a (graham?) cookie, & a 2021 catawba(?) Seventh course- White chocolate ganache & pumpkin seed oil, with a incredible Louise Prescott ice cider, 2012' After dessert- strawberry gummies(?) & caramels, with coffee, tea, or a digestive. Each dish & pairing were well balanced & well explained, by incredible staff members. Everyone was helpful, professional, & knowledgeable. Be prepared to spend both a long time & a large sum of money here. We spent over four hours, but it didn't feel like it at all. Final bill including tip was nearly $500ca per person, but managed not to feel pretentious or overpriced.
