Chez Leveque

It was almost 9pm on a weeknight when hubs & I spontaneously decided to have a nice meal at Leméac as we thought it'd be mellow at this time of night, but when we stepped inside we found it too crowded and noisy for our mood. I suggested Chez Leveque across the street, which was much more chill. So glad we ended up here instead! Not only were there weeknight table d'tote specials, the service was attentive and top-notch too. I appreciated that they gave me a sample of the salmon tartar before serving it to me, to make sure the spice level was to my liking. The cocktails were also on special and very good too. Hubs ordered the cod, which was served hot and perfectly cooked, crisp on the outside, and tender on the inside. We had a very pleasant meal and what was great was that the price was very reasonable for such high level quality and service. Highly recommended. We'll definitely be coming back!

Cute French bistro in Outremont on rue Laurier. Has both indoor and outdoor dining. Food is great and there’s also a kids option for those under 14. Salmon served in a lemon sauce was phenomenal, loved the gazpacho, which was fresh, a dash of heat from the fresh pepper that was offered at the table. Perfect for a warm summer evening. Service is impeccable, friendly, attentive, and patient. We dined outside, the traffic is minimal on a Thursday night with a pleasant breeze which made dining al fresco a delight. Atmosphere was more intimate and quieter than Leméac across the street that was much more lively.

Popped in for the lunch special, everything from Stuart to finish was excellent, highly recommend the lunch and late dinner special to sample such fine food 🇫🇷

I had dinner here on a Sunday night. There is a special Table d’Hôte from Sundays to Wednesdays for 32$. Service was top-notch. The food was delicious.

Cannot fault it. Great service and great food, great table and it is actually a good deal considering the high level. I had the snails and for the main I was not disapointed with a good duck tourtière! For dessert, we had crèpe Suzette flambée, this has to be one of the only restaurants that still do those classics!  Tissue napkins, good cutlery, and glassware. The reason why I do rate it 4 is the martini glass was chipped and the credit card was not simple. The waiter managed to make the contactless option work; I just could not remember the NIP of that credit card. It was a bit of an embarrassment. I have not been there in 30 years, and I do definitely recommend it and looking forward to go back!

It feels like you are in Paris with excellent service, food execution and European atmosphere. Both Fish had crispy skin and was flaky French baguettes crispy crust amd soft like cotton candy on the inside. They have more famous dishes if you are more adventurous, just google them before going to the restaurant 😉

Ordered the steak and fries and the daily fish. Expect service like if you are eating in France. Sometimes amazing, at other times expect a sprinkle of attitude. I'm ok with that since the food is reasonable priced and delicious. And the French bread is excellent- crispy exteriors and fluffy on the inside.

We came here the first day we arrived in Montreal, the staffs were very friendly and welcoming. The beef tartare was amazing, they let me try one scoop before serving the actual dish just to make sure I liked it, which is very caring.🥰 It was a good experience!

My brother and sister-in-law brought me to Chez Lévêque for a celebratory dinner. Although I appreciate French cuisine, it's not something I normally eat - so this proved as special as they had hoped. We had a table upstairs where the atmosphere and service were exceptional. Beyond the excellent fresh baked Baguette at the get-go, Chez Lévêque's rich Lobster Bisque with cognac and Snail Puff Pastry à la Chamblisienne, (with shallots, white wine and cream,) made an amazing start. Sublime describes my entrée, Veal with Morels Sauce and Noodles. Will never forget that wonderful meal! Wouldn't have to think twice about returning to Brasserie Chez Lévêque! If you have the opportunity to dine here, recommend you do the same!

The service was excellent and place was really cute. Got a glass of wine and ordered the mussels, they were huge. Very flavorful and fries were also good. And their house mayo is really tasty!

We returned again for my birthday. Like a kid in a candy shop. I loved my meal. It was a little noisy at first but then a large group left. Excellent service from a great staff. Everything was top notch. Great view upstairs onto the street. Great BD gift that I chose. Cream of vegetables was silky smooth. The smoked fish was delish. I asked for extra sauce on my veal, so buttery and creamy. Enjoy

The service was great. As far as the food, we especially enjoyed the escargot. The fries were really tasty also. I think it would be perfect for a family like ours or a date night. A calm, romantic atmosphere.

Great elegant French restaurant in Montreal! I loved the area here as it was much quieter and had quite a few nice restaurants on the same street. Great place to have a beautiful dinner for an occasion or a nice date night. They have a great selection of drinks and wine. I ordered a bubbly rosé and my sister ordered the Sancerre Sauvignon blanc, which I recommend both. To start, my family and I ordered the Lobster Bisque, Terrine de canard et foie gras, and the Snails and Mushrooms with Chablis sauce. I really enjoyed the snails the best! The mix of dipping the bread with the snails and mushrooms is a great appetizer to start and share for the table. The lobster bisque had a strong lobster taste in the soup that my family enjoyed. It was great to start the table off with something warm. The Terrine de canard et foie gras was my least favorite out of all three appetizers but I'm glad I got to try it since I've never had this before. For our main entrees, we ordered the beef tartare, salmon tartare, wild shrimps with linguine, and the rabbit special. We enjoyed all the entrees as they were all very different but delicious. The shrimp was cooked beautifully and the lemon and lime sauce linguine was a refreshing taste for me but some of my family did not like the lemon taste in the pasta as much. The beef and salmon tartare were great and came with a small salad and some fries. Very great combo for some protein, carbs, and vegetables. The rabbit special came with mashed potatoes and it was very soft and cooked very well. We also ordered desserts which we highly recommend. We ordered an ice cream dessert that had chocolate syrup and almonds drizzled on top that was our favorite. Overall, we enjoyed our meal overall and would love to come here again if we're in town. This place is great for an elegant dinner or have a nice date night.

+.5 for service I've been to Lemeac across the street in previous visits, but have always been curious of this place. I finally managed to book a reservation over the holidays. I was coming from NYC to Montreal, and got stuck at the border crossing for about 45 minutes. They were accommodative in us needing an extra 15-30 mins to get there. Parking is street parking on Laurier Ave. Really nice street to explore mind you. The ambiance looks very French contemporary. Even the servers are dressed like you're dining in a French bistro. I had the lobster bisque, escargots with pastry, and clergy bouillabaisse. All excellent, especially the escargots. It was presented uniquely, and the pastry meshed with the escargots and cream sauce really well. Service was excellent, they even replaced my mom's filet mignon after it being overcooked (well done vs medium), and took it off our bill, PLUS adding dessert on the house. We ended up ordering a decent frozen nougat with liqueur and some red fruit candy. Given the service we received and that we liked most of the food we ordered, I'm happy to return here in the future.

When your friend asks you if you want to eat at the restaurant that the prime minister Justin Trudeau eats, then you go and eat there! And that's what we did. On a whim, we ended up at this place and they were very accommodating with our impromptu reservation. We arrived and were seated promptly. The service was excellent and very attentive. The ambiance is beautiful and you feel like you've been transported to a restaurant in Paris. However, the food fell a bit short hence why I took one star out. Service: 5/5 amazing! Our waiter was super attentive and our food was brought out in a reasonable amount of time. We ended up being the last ones leaving and they let us take our time to finish which I really appreciate. Ambiance: 5/5 Beautiful decor and many lovely French items adorning the walls. There's also a second floor that overlooks the main street fyi which is good to know if you call in advance and book a table up there! Food: 3/5 Unfortunately the food fell a bit short. Mind you this is NOT typical Parisian food, instead it's a more traditional type of French food. We ordered the Levesque salad and the croquettes. The croquette was unfortunately very salty and thanks to the complementary pickles I was able to eat it. Now for the main meal. Typically if I'm spending a lot of $$ on a meal, I'd want my dish to be tasty and worth it. This was not the case. I got the flambé fish which in theory sounded delicious and they even brought it out to you flambé style which was really cool. However the taste was bland. The sauce that came with it was not at all complementary. The legumes that was paired with it fell short so in itself it was a huge disappointment. My husband got the beef steak which was a thousand times better. So definitely go for the meat dishes here!!! However the dessert was delicious. I had the lime cheese cake and hubby had the profiteroles. Both were devoured pretty quickly. So all in all, I'd rate this place 4 stars. If you are in the mood to try French food I'd recommend this place. I would just be weary that the dishes may be lacking some flavor and you may be disappointed by the food. However you will get amazing service and still have a lovely dinner.

Undercooked mussels, full of sand almost cracked a tooth, not impressed and crazy expensive for mediocre dish, only highlight was our waitress, lovely girl

Very good French food. But expensive. Don't let the online menu fool you. Those are take home items that you cook yourself and not part of the regular menus. Service is great!!! Atmosphere is perfect for a date. I absolutely recommend this place.

Came here for MTL à table. Since we were a big group, we got to try almost everything on the menu. For the food: some dishes were great and some were disappointing. The best ones were the steak, the mousse de foie de volaille and the duck. The lobster bisque was pretty good. However, the quenelle was extremely salty and it came with bland long grain rice. It was a bit sad eating that while others enjoyed their delicious duck or steak. The desserts were pretty great. The service was good. We had an enjoyable service. It was a bit long before getting our food and we were very hungry. The complimentary bread definitely helped. Overall, it was a good experience. However, I don't think we would come back.

This restaurant is opposite Leméca . Today I know why Lemece is full house. And this restaurant has so many seat. I tried this restaurant in the afternoon. It seems that I eat a lot of sodium. All the food is very salty, and the service is not as expected. I don't think I will patronize again!

Phenomenal food. Very professional service. We were greeted by the host, taken to our table right away. Waiter was extremely knowledgeable about menu and actually made few great recommendations. Everything is cooked to order so, it will take few minutes. But the the wait is so worth it. Place is very old school, they do everything with pride. The atmosphere is so relaxing, you do not want to leave. Surprisingly, bill was was very modest :-) Plus current exchange rate makes it even more desirable. I highly recommend that place.

I've dined out here on several occasions, after nine o'clock of course, and here is what I have to say: The food was, once again, spectacular. They never disappoint. When I go to chez leveque I always pick their more exotic plates. From the plating to the flavours, It's just perfect. The decor has a controversial catholic religious theme which precisely matches the menus, washroom, and second floor. It perfectly flows throughout the restaurant. The service is on point. As soon my girlfriend and I walked in, we were instantly greeted by two different waiters whom assured us that we will be seated within the next five minutes. Moreover, of you mentioned them on Facebook or Twitter, you get a free drink! This restaurant has become my 2015 favourite restaurant.

If you enjoy offensively overcooked filet mignon and beef tartare drowning in Dijon mustard, look no further because Chez Levesque is the restaurant for you. This was without exaggeration possibly the worst meal I've had the misfortune of eating. Somehow the rushed and non-existent service was the highlight of the night. I strongly suspect that an apprentice chef was responsible for this culinary Holocaust because there is no way this establishment could remain in business if clients are tortured like this every day.

We had very good experience with Chez Lévêque.The food was excellent, meets our expectation of French Food. The waiter and all other servers were very good and fun. Atmosphere were upbeating. The restaurant attracts many locals as well as tourists. Tonight we went to another restaurant called Pleid Sud thought we would've the similar experience, but we were completely disappointed. We wish we would come back to Chez Lévêque tonight

Overall, I was disappointed in my experience at Chez Leveque. I was visiting Montreal to celebrate New Year's, and came here for lunch on January 1, with the desire to enjoy a classic French meal. While the service was nice and attentive, the food was overpriced and mediocre in my opinion. As part of the New Year's special, we were unable to order a la carte -- there was a $55 per person 3 course menu (with selections) that we had to order from. We opted to do 2 of the prix fixe and then just order one of the plats at regular price (which we were allowed to do). For our entrees, we had the blood sausage (quite good) and 6 baked oysters (which were not very warm). Plats -- magret de canard (which was overcooked), quenelles (oversalted unfortunately) and tartare de cerf (pretty good, interestingly sweet). Dessert -- chocolate lava cake with ice cream (quite good) and almond merengue. The bill came out to ~$200 which I felt like wasn't quite worth it. The food was fine, and the service was very good, but we felt that we could have gotten better value for what we paid.

Very full French menu. Had tartare. V good. Boudin maison: excellent Service is warm and friendly. Better to reserve. Wine list is disappointing but nonetheless has choice.

I have been here several times and I have a love-hate relationship with this restaurant. Love: - Best French onion soup in the city - They bring you a sample of the tartare to make sure it is seasoned enough for you before serving it. - The irony of the in-your-face Catholic inspired decoration, including the chanting playing in the toilets. - Decent wine-list - Solid selection of oysters including a peep show of the shucking. - Great option for after 21h late dinner. $21 after 21h Hate: - I always feel judged when I'm there as my boyfriend and I do not fit the profile of the "average clientele" (Read: we are young, casual and non-caucasian lovers of French food) - There is an air of presumptuousness that can be suffocating - Inconsistency of the food. For example: today's eggs Benedict were solidly over-cooked and the hollandaise sauce was tasteless. Overall, I can handle the snobbery when the food wows my taste buds. Today was not one of those occasions. Must have: Onion Soup. After a city-wide tasting of all the onion soups there is to offer, Chez Lévêque makes the best.

This is a wonderful place! My boyfriend and I had dinner here after opting out of reservations across the street at Lameac, which had been recommended to us by our hotel's concierge, but which was far too loud and and busy for our tastes (I expect summer is better with the patio access -- in winter, the main room is oppressively loud.) Everything about Chez Leveque was just perfect: our waiter was fantastic, the food was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was warm and inviting, especially after a long, cold walk from the metro. As for the meal? Divine. My boyfriend had the French onion soup as a starter, and of course I had to try it. Amazing. For a main, he had filet mignon, which was perfect. I had the bouillabaisse, which was absolutely incredible, and full of salmon, red snapper, clams, and mussels (and one slightly over-cooked shrimp.) The soup came with a side of toasted bread, cheese, and a sauce, which you were supposed to submerge in the soup, but I thought that was over-kill for what was a superb soup.) Neither of us had dessert, but the selection looked delicious. Two tips: 1. If you go, and if you're on a budget, note that they do a $21 fixed price menu after 9:00. Before 9:00, the place is full of considerably older folks (as noted by another reviewer), but after 9:00, younger couples came in to dine. 2. This place has one of the more amusingly themed washrooms I've seen. The restaurant has a slightly religious motif going on (not sure why), and the washrooms are worth checking out.

I've been going to Chez Lévêque for a while now for special occasion brunches such as father's or mother's day. We went today with my parents for my birthday brunch. I've never been disappointed with the food. It is delicious and well plated. I have had the brioche which is delicious and today I had the egg benedict with smoked salmon which was superb. The only downfall was the service. The waitress was attentive until we had finished our main meal at which point she completely forgot about us. I finally had to flag down another waiter who standing at the other side of the room. He seemed surprised that I was calling him over. I asked him to bring us desert menus. She never apologized for our long wait, and was not very willing to help us which seemed strange since we were very polite with her! The rest of the staff was a bit short as well.

Service is a bit like a coach experience on a good airline. Food is like a business-class level experience on a subpar airline. Music is more reminiscent of a late-night crash in some horrendous club in Laval. All in all, the After-9pm 21$ special is a fair deal. But come in earlier and pay more, you'll feel like a douche flying to Vegas for Christmas.

Delicious food. Terrible service. Its one of my favorite places with constant great service and impeccable food, however it is the 2nd time I am being served by a waitress who has not tact and class expected from a high-end restaurant. She tries to insert herself into your conversation and make inappropriate jokes while at the same time not being able to explain the menu properly. At some point she was advising where to put the plate and telling we should have more wine in order to go dancing (and yes in fact she was making the dance moves to imitate that wine would make us super happy). She forgot to refill the water however she was fast there to grab the check out of our hands and see what was the tip left to her. Someone like this damages a reputation of such a great place and leaves a bad taste in your mouth despite great food. So if you are lucky you will get one of the guys or a younger waitress who is good if you are unlucky like we were then ... be patient and try to ignore it (though it gets hard at a certain point).

Food's good but the waiters are way too laid back and even impolite at times. One waiter is looking insistently at my girlfriend. Not that I am jealous or that I lack confidence but they shall know when to behave like they are in a bar and when to behave like they are at work. I went twice there and the same waiter was intensively checking out female customers every time. The other waiter wouldn't take my order properly as he was standing very far from me when taking notes (like I was apparently supposed to shout at him to say what I wanted). He did dare arguing with me that I shall have said something as soon as I noticed that he wasn't proposing me the proper sauces accompanying my meal... It's the french school of waiting, where being impolite is accepted. The difference is that, in France, tipping 15% of the bill is not the norm. I'm waiting for much more coming from a supposedly chic establishment (at last when one looks at the prices). Montreal does not lack of good restaurants with servers providing great service. I'm definitely not going back to Lemeac before a long time.

I've walked by Chez Leveque (The Bishop's in English) several times over the years but never had dinner. So when we saw a recent deal we decided it was time to try it. And are we glad that we did! The maitre d' greated us warmly. Excellent bistro menu, the lobster bisque was superb. The service was excellent and attentive and the waiters really worked as a team. All the food was properly spiced. I'm usually not a fan of bistro, but this was excellent. Even the terrasse in front was so nice (with no smokers). The bread fresh, the water glass filled and the male waiter was so professional. Definitely recommended. Oh.... and slip upstairs to the bathroom, the door glass is made to resemble a church window and there is ecclesiastical music playing. A very nice touch.

French food is my absolute favourite and this restaurant doesn't disappoint. This place has been around with the same ownership for 40 years and from appetizers to dessert, your stomach will thank you. Friendlier service than what one often gets at a true French resto/bistro. Best lobster bisque I've had in Canada, it's really something to be savoured and remembered.

My boyfriend isn't too big of a fan when it comes to French food simply because of the portion sizes for the price you pay, so it was a great thing that they had a special 9pm menu.. Nicely located in Laurier, it has a very romantic ambiance. Or maybe because we were seated by the windows and it was a rainy night. Good : The food is excellent, from appetizers to main course. The service was very good too. The veal tongue slivers will not disappoint! Bad : I cannot recall anything bad about this place. Bottom Line : Oh, I will definitely return. If you enjoy French cuisine, this is definitely the spot. Great for dates!

Four of us had dinner on Valentines weekend. The place is bustling and was packed. The secret to getting a nice table downstairs is to book an early table at 6:30PM. It's very reasonably priced for quality French bistro food, especially if you eat off their Table D'Hote menu. We were all served with a giant macaroon for dessert. What a treat!

We were here in Montreal on Christmas Eve 2015. We had heard so much about Chez Leveque that this had to be the place where we spent this most precious evening. The food was delicious, but the service was extremely slow. The bread, and I love my bread, was perfection personified. The soup was okay and I dined on shrimp and my husband had lobster and again, the food was superb....dessert was also truly outstanding. The atmosphere itself was quite lovely... but it really was far too long to wait between courses. Faaaaar too long. We mentioned it in-between courses... and still... we waited. We may try it again on our next trip, but if it's another dragged on, hour after hour after hour dinner like last time... that will be exactly what it is - our LAST time.

Excellent food and service. Moderate sized portions of tasting high quality food. Bread served with olive spread and butter, get a second portion, nice! We had shrimp app, dinners: lobster and scallops/shrimp. Glass of wine and sparkling water. Dessert included with scallop dinner, an apple pie, very tasty. With Capp coffee. Waiter was very attentive. Tre Bien.

My friend who lives in Montreal recommended this secret little gem while we were visiting in the summer. We were looking for French food but less expensive than what your generic google search would spit out. I really gotta give them 5 stars as my experience was impeccable. The food was excellent at every point along the way. Several different kinds of locally baked breads and a wide wine selection, along with our waiter who recommended a great wine choice, which made way for several different appetizers for each person's taste. I got the escargots which were far better than ones I had tried previously, made with a simple garlic and butter sauce. Their basic salad with other prix fixe meals was also lovely, and the cheese plate was great as well. Choosing my actual entree was not as simple. Had I asked more questions, perhaps I would have chosen differently, but one of the specials was locally-sourced crab legs. That I got to crack myself. And wear a bib. In public. Anyway, goes without saying that it was flawless. The crab was in a classic butter sauce and it matched the other veggies on the dish perfectly. Highly recommended from myself, although they may not have it when not in season. Lastly, as a visitor and English-speaker, being in Montreal is always a little tricky. I speak some French, however I was with my brother and his girlfriend who were not as versed in the menu and style of dining. As rude as some people were in some parts of Quebec, the waitstaff and bartenders at Chez Leveque were very accomodating and really wanted to give us the best experience possible and bridge the language gap. I really can't say enough great things! I loved it there and it was a very pretty interior. The upstairs is a little more laid back for group events and the bathrooms are modeled after a church. It just works, don't ask me how.

Outstanding! Our only regret was that we weren't famished when we arrived. We'd describe the food as French provincial, especially with things like veal kidneys, veal sweetbreads and duck leg confit on the menu. The service was some of the most professional one could expect, with the staff showing off their respective talents, not in an obnoxious way, but with a subtlety that credits their profession. Example: A table had an open bottle of sparkling wine. One of the party went to pour some, and a waiter, seeing this, approached so smoothly and relieved the patron of the bottle to complete the pour himself. It was a treat to watch, especially since no one else appeared to notice. The place was packed, yet we still felt like we had our own space. The escargot, onion soup, duck confit and veal kidneys with Madeira sauce were stellar!

Excellent place. The food.. superb, the atmosphere.. cosy. One of my favourite spots in Montreal. Love it.

chez leveque came highly recommended, but after reading a few reviews online i was a bit apprehensive. but after we checked the place out, i have to say i was pretty impressed! first off, the bread was great and the busboy/waiter came by often asking if we wanted more. they had two options, regular baguette and a rye bread with nuts, both of which were great. my friends and i went for the $21 after 9PM, which is a really reasonable price for an appetizer and a main dish (since usually, their entrees are in the 20-25 range). i had the french onion soup, which was great- tons of cheese, lots of flavor. maybe a bit too salty, though. i had the fish of the day, which was halibut. also really tasty and the sauce was perfect, but i'm afraid they overcooked the fish. it still tasted good, but the consistency wasn't exceptional because it was on the grill one or two minutes too long. i also read a lot of bad things about the service, but i have to say all the waiters and waitresses we interacted with were cordial and efficient, so i definitely can't complain on that front. overall a good experience, so i'd recommend it!

This place is great. They have the address wrong though; it's Laurier West (or Ouest). One weird thing is that this place is always full of people in their 70's -- I guess mature people appreciate classy food. I've eaten here about five times and it always impresses. I would write more, but I'd rather that you experience it for yourself. Do yourself a favor and get out of "centreville".

Love this place. A great back-up brunch resto (no lines ), excellent service, amazing oyster bar... it tends to skew a bit old but that's part of the charm...

I went with a friend during Taste Mtl so we both got the set menu. The staff was very friendly and very helpful! First, the appetizers. We both got the tuna albacore tartare and it tasted so good! The tartare was wonderful and it went well with the cucumber salad and the other ingredients! Very light, but had a distinct taste which I absolutely loved. For the main dishes, I got the duck and it was just so good! The cut of the duck, the sauce, everything was just right. I was just speechless because it was that good. My friend got the maple glazed scallops and it was really good too. The right seasoning, not too salty, just perfect. I'm very satisfied with the food. And finally, for the desserts, we got the maple macaron with passion fruit sorbet which was very sweet and delicious, I'm a big fan of macarons so I was happy that it was fresh and not stale. I was a bit disappointed with the brownie but it was still very good and simple because I wanted more. I will definitely go back again to try the other dishes and the desserts, that's for sure!

Delicious, warm and fulfilling experience. Our waiter, Doris, was amazing. I think she participated a lot in the overall satisfaction of our evening. My guests and I stayed there for 3hrs, great time! I had the foie de volaille entrée (3,5/5), the AAA steak (4/5) and a 2009 Bordeaux (4,8/5), Service 5/5. I recommend !

I had the 8oz rib steak. It was served up with a béarnaise sauce, steak fries and market vegetables. It was perfectly pink and tender, well rested and exactly how I ordered it. Only complaint was that they missed the rubbery connective tissue in the butchering, I remained calm as I pulled what seemed like dental floss out of my steak.

We live in the neighborhood and been there quite often. It used to be ok, a reliable place, not too fancy but efficient and pleasant. But now you just have to avoid it. Service is surreal. Invasive waiters trying to please beyond rationality, mingling into private conversations and filling your glasses every two seconds (clearly the objective is to boost the tap and hence their tip). Yet unable to write a correct order down, leaving the table unattended while ordering. Huge wait between dishes, with kids waiting 1.30 hour before getting any food (the waiter realizing that they offer kids menus after 30 minutes, bringing them an slowing down, once again, all the process). Food ok, standard brasserie fare, but then ugly dessert straight from the fridge. And if it is Saturday, a stupid techno music as if it was a club. You ask for volume to be turned down, just to be able to have a conversation, and after 2 minutes is up again. It's a brasserie not a disco! Kitchen clearly overwhelmed by patrons. And they even tell you, "sorry but tonight it is a mess". No manager in sight capable of taking any responsibility, offering an apology or a partial reimbursement as a courtesy. DON'T GO THERE! Unless it comes back to what it used to be.

One of the best meals we (connoisseurs, to use the 'French ' word) have ever had! Try the goat cheeZ salad, salmon, lobster rol (if in season) and wine, of course. Awesome service, great ambience, all in all a "parfait" nite~~~ PS let US eat cake

Old crowd so don't bring a date there in your 30's food is ok i saw a tv show about a chef working there not too experimented would give a second chance though

This is a great place for a casual upscale meal. I highly recommend coming after 9pm for their late-night menu (21 dollars for two courses and 6 dollar drinks). Even if you come outside of this time, it's still wonderfully priced for the quality of food you're getting. The deserts are wonderfully tasty, rich, but not overly so, and the steak is to die for!

Classic "brasserie". A bit overpriced... but good. The $21 Menu Lunchtime and 9 P.M. is a good deal...

The menu is French , I tried the dorade fish which is good but the salade de cresson not tasty and not fresh but as a whole everything not so bad , my friends had the tartare de saumon which is not as good either , the bisque d'homard was very salty ..the ambience is good the service was excellent .

First, their address is not correct indeed, it is WEST Laurier. But this was one of the most frustrating and unpleasant dining experience I have had in years. It took for ever to get served (we were upstair), there were 6 of us, and 2 of us had the wrong order. When asked what they could do to make for such poor service, took $6 of the bill !! VERY POOR service. and the food was so so any way. a waste of time and money.

We went in for the after 9 p.m. special, which ended up being rather unexciting after all. I took a rather bland beef tartare. There was actually mac'n'cheese on that menu - for a surplus. It took us about 40 minutes after our reservation's set time to be seated, but the staff seemed rather overwhelmed, so I'm guessing they had a particularly busy night. The people at the entrance were very apologetic. During the entire meal, our server had the most haughty look I ever remember seeing on someone's face, which may not have been on purpose, but which was very upsetting...

First, if you are staying in Old Montreal, this is NOT close and there are many good/better restaurants closer. That said, if you are staying in the area, it's not a bad choice. Onion Soup had enough onion (hard to find), but was missing key spices. Salads looked good. One odd thing: the English menu wasn't current. In short, OK, but there are better.

Very nice restaurant. The food was delicious! Unfortunately, that night our waiter didn't know the new wines offered so we missed an opportunity to match a special wine with the food. Other than that, it was really really nice!

Been going to that restaurant for over 35 years and it was usually very nice but the last time, a Christmas dinner, was absolutely awful. After choosing the most expensive table d'hote in advance, we were told once there that the dishes we had chosen were not available and basically that we should be happy to have a restaurant because we had reserved just seven days in advance. Service was indifferent to downright rude, waiters told us to pour our own wine, and the food was horribly bland. I didn't recognise any of the regular staff, I don't know what direction this restaurant is taking, but it's not good. Unless you can go back in time, I'd avoid it.
