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.

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.View more

At a cost of over $1,100 for a group of four, the experience was wholly unsatisfying. We dined here last week & chose the 7-course tasting menu. Five of the dishes were mediocre/ok, & two were unpalatable. Unfortunately, the evening was made worse by the incessant presence of fruit flies for the latter half of the evening. -- The service was subpar. Example 1) When multiple dishes went uneaten, the staff didn't enquire as to why // or offered any alternatives. Example 2) We told our server one of our guests was allergic to seafood & another was vegan - unfortunately, we were all given strictly vegan dishes (because, I assume, it was less work) - it was only on the fifth dish, when this was communicated to the server - that the last two dishes served contained any meat (one of which was a dessert).View more

I was excited to visit Toque, a name on the canadas100best list we've yet to check off. We were a party of 4, two of which are vegans. We called ahead to verify the restaurant could accommodate 2 vegan tasting menus & 2 regular tasting menus. The restaurant confirmed it would be no problem, both over the phone & at the restaurant. Unfortunately there was a communication issue with the kitchen & we all ended up with vegan dishes. I'm open to vegan food, but we were looking forward to the regular 7 course experience. When confronting the staff, they acknowledged their mistake & offered us an extra quail dish, which was a nice gesture but made things a bit awkward as our vegan friends waited. The restaurant is a bit dated, especially the staff uniforms. Although clean, the fruit flies around our food & drinks was definitely a downer. Considering the reputation & what we paid, I expected more from Toque. It was a disappointing dining experience, that stems from poor service.View more

Service was very good. Food was good, but a little bit underwhelming. The tasting menu was interesting. I would try again but not sure it was worth the price. Perhaps my palette is not sophisticated enough for this restaurant. The desserts were very good.View more

This was my 2nd visit to Toqué. Instead of the tasting menu, we went à la carte this time. Top notch service. Ordered the acras & quail appetizers, lamb & filet de boeuf mains, & mousse de café. Loved all the flavor combinations in each dish. Everything was beautifully plated, too. We were surprised to receive complimentary amuse bouches & sweet finishes. Definitely lives up to the hype.View more

Not bad, but the tasting menu costs around CA$ 200 before tax. A rating of 3.5-4 seems fair for the price.View more

The best restaurants in Montreal by far. Only one in the city that delivers a true Michelin star experience, & a real brigade kitchen! Staff is beyond knowledgable & friendly. Recommend the tasting menu!View more

Toque was disappointing. The meal, served over four hours, was mostly forgettable. The service was fine, but was at times stuffy & both over & under attentive.
Our group of five, including a vegetarian, got the tasting menu. To their credit, a few dishes stood out. They were: the airy, salty & rich corn amuse bouche (which everyone received); the light & refreshing tomato gazpacho (vegetarian only); the deeply flavored tomato tart (vegetarian only); the scallops, a smooth mix of buttery, briny & pickled flavors; & the best dish, the dessert, a refreshing mixture of fruit, texture & taste.
Unfortunately, most of the remaining dishes, including the main courses, lacked creativity or flavor. The vegetarian main course was a mediocre pasta with vegetables. The meat main course was pigeon, which was tough & bland. Meats & flavors were repeated throughout the meal, but not in novel ways.
If you're looking for a dynamic, exciting meal, I would recommend looking elsewhere. We enjoyed several of the city's upscale wine bars here that served inspired, creative dishes.View more

In May 2023, I ordered the tasting menu & the 5 wine pairing. The flavors were fabulous!!! Every bite made me smile. I did not want the evening to end. Every staff person I interacted with was amazing! Everyone took their time & explained each plate & wine.
Thank you, Toqué! for a lovely experience.View more
