La Forge Bistro Bar & Grill

This place is a total joke. $16 for add-on salmon for a tiny 3oz piece, on top of a $27 tasteless cobb salad with what tasted like kraft bottle generic dressing. The french onion soup had no debt of flavor and was under seasoned. The worst french onion soup I’ve ever had in Quebec. The fries were also under seasoned and had no truffle taste. The parmasan on top was just wierd looking. The portion size again tiny. The fries were greasy. The service was slow. The salmon on the salad didn’t even taste fresh. Quite simply the worst meal I’ve had in Mont Tremblant.

The food quality was not good, and one of the dishes was served very late. There were four of us, and one person’s meal arrived after everyone else had already finished, which was very unpleasant. The waiter’s attitude was also not good.

Overpriced food, average service, but nice atmosphere. Service: I think it was decent. The wait for the food was pretty slow (around 15 mins 😭). However, the waiters were nice and could speak both French and English 😀. Atmosphere: Nice! Unfortunately, I was unable to go inside, but I did like how the bistro was decorated outside. Food: Overpriced food, and it did not taste the best. For example, a 5 oz burger with fries was $22, and escargot was $16 (for 8 snails and 1 piece of bread). These might not be the best examples, so check the menu 😭. The burger was decent. The escargot was good.

Excellent! The location is well situated, surrounding lots of activities and shopping. Our server was attentive and friendly. We had the passion fruit mojito - which was delicious. The food was phenomenal. We had the escargot, filet mignon, truffle parmesan fries and garlic mashed potatoes. 10/10 recommend.

The resto is conveniently located at the base of the mountain which makes it a convenient place once your done on the slopes. There was a lineup at the end of the afternoon but we didn't have to wait long. We sat outside under the heat lamps and it was quite warm. Our waiter Martin was so friendly and very good at his job. We ordered smash burgers with truffle Parmesan fries which were amazing. We finished with a homemade pudding chomeur, one of the best I've had. My wife had a bloody Caesar which she enjoyed. In terms of price, you are in the Tremblant village and with today's prices in general, it's right in line with what I would expect to pay. I would definitely go back because the service and food was very good.

Great place to eat and desserts/drinks. The manager (Jamel ?) was amazing jumping in and helping all staff. Friendly and funny. Chocolate cake and cheese cakes were perfect. Tables were sturdy, and some even had the center flames. Steak house upstairs 😋, we will be back.

We sat on the patio at one of the fire tables and ordered a cocktail and cider and the BBQ chicken nachos to share on a warm night in October. They were very good! The ambiance here is exactly what you’d want for a visit to Tremblant.

They don’t let you eat their own food inside the Restaurant, they say that if you already ordered takeaway food you have to go eat on the street. We were Yam tired that we prefer not to argue but we assume that the restaurant has a bad reputation because it is empty on a holiday. They have what they deserve. In the end we went to eat at the park but we preferred to eat something else since the Poutine was too dry and the potatoes tasted old

Servers were super attentive, they saw I was freezing and they brought hot water and a blanket. Made a huge difference. The food was good too, pretty sizable portions. Great place!

We ate upstairs & loved the vibe. Super cozy. Food was delicious. Was a big fan of the honey roasted carrots and the Filet.

Just wow! I am so sad that this place is not closer to home. The service was amazing. The ambiance was perfect for our date night. The food .. . oh the food.. Every bite of everything we ate was top notch. We saved this place for the last night of our trip and I'm glad we did. I'll be back!~

Came for my boyfriend's 30th birthday with a group of 9. The waiter was amazing, helping with wine selection, making sure the food was up to bar, and having a bit of banter with the table. Everyone's steak was perfectly cooked. The only downside was the garlic mashed potatoes were more thick/gluey not light and fluffy. The restaurant made a big ordeal over his birthday, with lights, a special hat, a bubble machine, and a DELICIOUS maple cake slice. This was one of the highlights of our trip and made a special birthday memory.

I'm being generous because I've never given a 1 rating. The beef bourguignon was so super disappointing. I'm not even sure if I got what I ordered. He bread bowl was cold and there was one piece of beef in it along with a singular carrot slice. The kids filet was good but it was 4oz and $32, so... The alcohol was good, I can't imagine that you'd mess that up. Service was slow. Our server wasn't overly friendly but not rude either. It was just a weird vibe. Not a great first dinner choice for our vacation. I'd come back for a beer, though.

Okay. Poor service and overpriced for the quality of food and drinks Don't order the chicken sandwich - it's a mystery meat. Definitely not chicken. Service is super slow For the price it's not worth it , go to Le Shack - food is better , drinks , prices - overall much better

Does not take reservations! Which is incredibly inconvenient! Just take a credit card and if people do not show up or call charge a fee! 101 people!!

Great place to stop for lunch after a morning on the mountain. It definitely beats eating in an overly crowded ski lodge and for the same price you get great food. I've been here for just drinks and for lunch. The service was quick, nice and if you get in early enough, you can get a nice seat by the window with the view of the mountain. They were good and quick to seat my large group of 8 without any reservations. Good drink selection too. Would come back again for another lunch.

Walked up with a group of 6 (after having a horrible experience next door at Le Shack) and was immediately seated. Shared incredible fondue as a group and had very kind and attentive service for a couple of hours. This is the best après ski at the base of the mountain, not to mention incredible food!

Downstairs is too busy and service is terrible. Upstairs is top notch and worth the wait. Concerned only about consistency of food brought to table

Slope in Tremblant offers either a Apres ski or lunch experience in the bar area or more formal dining upstairs. All the meat is grilled over an open flame. The beef cheek poutine was delicious and the 5oz burger was perfect. We had excellent service. I recommend this place for a meal or post skiing libations.

My friend waited for almost 3 hours, understanding it would take couple hours before they called her name on NYE. After 3 hours the hostess kept saying "we're next" even though she kept seating people that arrived after us. 3 of us sat at the bar to have a few drinks I order to kill time waiting for our table and the hostess told us we're not allowed at the bar unless we were eating. I didn't see anyone at all eating at the bar. They finally sat half our party and we took it because the kids were starving. We politely asked to speak to the manager simply to voice ourselves, at which point they kicked us out. The hostess as zero people skills, flat out continually lied to us and was rudest person I've met in a long time. Le Diablo on the other hand was the total opposite as they took us right in, we're extremely sweet and polite, and the food was amazing too.

La Forge Bistro and Steakhouse: A New Year's Eve Disaster If I could give La Forge Bistro and Steakhouse zero stars, I would. My family and I made the unfortunate decision to dine here for New Year's Eve in Mont Tremblant, and it was an absolute train wreck from start to finish. We were required to prepay $250 per adult and $125 per child for the privilege of attending their 5:30 PM seating, which, insultingly, came with a hard cutoff at 8 PM so they could usher in their "actual" New Year's Eve diners for the same price (but without a kids' menu). That alone should have been a red flag, but we had high hopes for a steakhouse dinner. How naive we were. The Food: A Parade of Culinary Catastrophes The appetizers set the tone for the evening: * Bone-dry falafel that would rival a desert for lack of moisture. * Foie gras crème brûlée--an absolute joke, both in concept and execution. * Blini with sturgeon and caviar, featuring a dry piece of sturgeon topped with what must've been four lonely caviar eggs--an insult to even the tiniest appetite. * Oysters so smothered in a bland, unremarkable sauce that tasting the actual oyster was impossible. The sole saving grace? Tiny A5 wagyu lollipops--delicious but laughably minuscule. The first course was even worse. The lobster bisque was akin to flour-thickened turkey gravy gone horribly wrong, leaving a greasy, glue-like paste that was entirely inedible. My foie gras was no better--an unappetizing glob of slimy, undercooked liver slopped onto an overly sweet cornbread-like base. For the main course, the steak was, thankfully, edible--but that's hardly a compliment at a steakhouse. My son decided to try the A5 wagyu instead of the kids' menu (a $100 supplement on top of the $250 adult meal). For $350, he endured inedible appetizers, paste-like bisque, and a tiny piece of wagyu. Dessert was the final slap in the face: a chocolate mousse "log" whose unfortunate resemblance to a certain bodily function felt like a fitting end to the meal. The Experience: Bare-Bones and Bleak For $250 per adult, one might expect at least a modicum of festivity. Instead, the restaurant offered nothing but a handful of half-inflated balloons dangling limply from the ceiling. Drinks--sodas for the kids and my non-alcoholic beer--were extra, adding insult to injury. Final Thoughts: Avoid at All Costs Prepaying for this meal left us completely at their mercy, with no recourse for the abysmal quality of the food or experience. It's enraging to have such high expectations only to be completely burned by a restaurant that clearly has no incentive to impress once they've pocketed your money. Do yourself a favor: avoid La Forge Bistro and Steakhouse at all costs. The only thing they excelled at was turning a festive evening into a frustrating, overpriced disappointment.

I had a burger and poutine, girlfriend had a burger and fries. My burger was one of the best "fancy burgers" I have ever had in my life, and the girlfriend loved hers too. Poutine was fine, very middle of the road. Prices were quite high, that is what I expected... they have a "captive audience" of people starving after a day of skiing, and you don't expect anything to be cheap at Mont Tremblant. Service was fast and friendly. I would love to have this burger again! J.Ja

Subpar food. Meat was poorly cooked and too salty. Slow service. Wildly overpriced. Avoid.

We waited 90 minutes to get in then 2 hours to receive our food. We were missing food and waiter argued with us we ordered late when we asked for our food that was missing. Would never come back. Rude service and terrible food. Never experienced anything like this.

Serivce took 1 hour 45 minutes for food. They lost the salt in the kitchen for sure. Also no pepper. One of the worst steaks I have ever endured. I should have offered to cook for them. Jesus

A bit pricey but worth it: We dined at both the bistro and the steakhouse and were served ample portions of well-crafted dishes by friendly wait-staff. I have no idea the reason for the negative reviews. This was the best steakhouse I've been to in recent memory. * Friendly, attentive service. * Generous portions. * Premium steak dishes are pricey but worth it. You can pay much more for smaller portions, impersonal service, and less well-curated dishes (I'm looking at you, Ruth's Chris). We had their signature burger the day before and it was huge with a surprisingly flavorful mix of condiments. Upon our second visit, we chose the steakhouse on the second floor, and my 20oz. rib-steak ($75CAD), ordered rare, was cooked to perfection. It appeared to have the cooking precision of sous vide steak (temperature-controlled boil), but was achieved somehow by traditional grilling, replete with "Maillard-reaction" grilled-flavor. My wife ordered a medium-rare, 12oz. filet mignon La Forge Foie gras et champignons, with bordelaise ($97CAD). The serving size appeared huge despite the steak's modest 12oz. pre-cooked weight. This signature La Forge dish was superb, yielding a complex and satisfying mix of beefy, savory, and buttery flavors. Again, a bit pricey, but everything we ordered was particularly tasty, easily surpassing the typical fare of the majority of similarly-priced restaurants we've visited.

Location is fantastic if you're in the village. But this place is pricey. Staff are great but seems there is no time or interest in creating a connection with the customers. We prefer places with a connection to the staff. And, in my opinion, while the food is great, there are other options in town that are equal or better.

Extremely overpriced, slow service and the chicken is disgustingly dry. It's an extra $10 to add chicken to a salad and it was so dry I couldn't even eat it. A Cesar salad here is like $25 and not worth it

The food and service are terrible which is a shame because the location is great. Steak sandwiches and fried calamari tasted like they were cooked the previous day and left to sit under a heat lamp. Very disappointing meal. Won't be back.

DO NOT EAT HERE. Service was horrible. After we received our food we were ignored. We had to get up and walk to the serving station to get our own Steak knifes. We ordered 3 steaks and 2 of the 3 were cooked incorrectly. Also my daughter has food allergies and we gave the chef the card stating the allergies and they still plated the food with the allergens and my daughter had a reaction. In short they are INCOMPETENT in all aspects of a restaurant. There are so many great restaurants in Mont Tremblant, this isn't one of them.

A huge family of 12 is trying to sit together on thanksgiving weekend in Mont Tremblant at this resto; the first manager said it will take a bit of time... let's say 20 minutes, since not all the members of family arrived, there 20 minutes are sufficient. At the nick of time when everyone was gathered, some second manager gave away our tables to another party. It didn't go well with my uncle, since we are all inside waiting for the table. The first manager comes back, and all the apologies were given. To get another table of 12 it might take an hour. We don't even want to get out of the restaurant because we have to take a long line at every other restaurants since mont tremblant is jam packed. In the end, We technically sat separately into three separate bar tables/stools around the bar. Our waitress was super quick and efficient. My dish was excellent; I ordered grilled salmon burger and sweet potatoes fries. My salmon was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The bun was perfect, with lettuce, red onions and chipotle mayo. I won't name the dishes of what the rest of 11 people ordered but everyone seemed to enjoy their dishes. Unfortunately, we couldn't enjoy it together. The biggest pointer is that management needs communicate among themselves, and not give away another customer's table to another when the party is present inside the restaurant, awaiting.

If you would like to pay premium prices for poorly prepared steak and to be treated like dirt then visit La Forge because nothing competes. My wife and I just had a 2 hour and 15 minute long meal at La Forge. Well done wagyu steaks, no service, best of luck getting a drink, and curling stone rolls await you! To start off our night we were informed La Forge was too busy for a table. This is ironic given we sat at the La Forge Steak House bar from a little before 7:30 to 9:45pm. That table, as well as others, were never seated. At about 9:30 we were offered the table in a wide open dinning room (about 5 people total remained) as if we were table scraps. Well after the treatment by our first waiter and the manager we might as well have been. At 7:30pm my wife and I decided to sit at the bar after being informed that there were no tables. We ordered 2 cocktails and input our dinner order fairly promptly. Our glasses went empty as nobody came to check on us for about 25 minutes. It was funny watching every waiter walk into the bar, make their tables drink and completely ignore us. Apparently there is a bar with no bartender. Our "Waiter" was clearly busy walking around and attending to every other table but us. I flagged down a waitress and ordered a glass of wine as nobody was waiting for help was hopeless. I should have asked to see the bottle because it was clearly different from the wine which was served the rest of the night. Bread was eventually brought out after having been collected from the local curling facility...seriously these things were so stale and dry they could have been curling stones. After about 40 minutes our green salad came out. The salad, while late, was the only acceptable dish of the night... The main meal arrived at 8:40pm. It could have arrived sooner as we watched our garlic potatoes and brussel sprouts sit in the service window for 20minutes. That's the great thing about an open kitchen, you can see it all especially when you're hungry with over an hour of waiting. We ordered the 12oz filet medium rare and the wagyu flank medium rare. The flank arrived well done and the filet arrived medium to medium well. That would not be acceptable at a chain let alone a steakhouse. It is at this time I asked to speak to the manager as our bar waiter simply could not be bothered. The waiter asked if he could do anything but after the neglect all night I asked to just please send the manager over. The great thing about La Forge's restaurant design is you can see everything from the bar! What our intrepid waiter decided to do was bounce around with the glasses across from the PoS system and then check on his tables. Only after about 5 minutes did he even attempt to find the manager and only then sent somebody to find him. I flagged another waitress down during his temper tantrum and asked to speak to the manager now. She immediately went to find him. The manager eventually appeared and agreed that the steak was improperly prepared and said that he would fix it by refiring the steaks and he poured a glass of wine. I also asked that he check and see when our first drink was ordered as it has been an incredibly long time and multiple couples who arrived after us had completed full meals. He never did return with that simple answer. Well we should have just left as our ticket was sent to the back of the line. Our next steaks were the last to be served and arrived at about 930. The steak was still cooked improperly as it was now rare but it was edible and we were starving. We were also now just offered a table, in the now empty restaurant. Seriously we were the last people in the place besides a table of 5 drinking wine and even further the kitchen staff was starting to clean the kitchen before our food arrived. After paying the ~$400 bill I asked the waitress again for the time and she informed me that our first drink was at 7:30...IT WAS CURRENTLY 9:40 and all we had was a salad, 2 steaks, and an order of mashed potatoes.

We went here a couple times apres ski. First was lunch and were seated by the friendly server. I was worried that we would have to have everyone present to be seated but they made no issue of it. What a pleasant relief. Lunch was good. I had a Goose Island IPA (no local brews unfortunately) and the little ones had hot chocolate. For food I had the poutine, which was ok. I've had better. Fries could have been crunchier, they were soggy and not because of the gravy. Little one had the burger which got rave reviews. Service was very friendly but a little uncoordinated. It's busy, lunch during high season, I get it. Second time was just some drinks. Hot chocolates and import IPA's. Friendly service. Anyways, overall a good experience. Would go again to see what else they had for food.

This was my worst experience in the area by far. We had a large group and waited 25 minutes to be seated, not a big deal but they should consider taking reservations in the future. The tables were uneven and basically several two person tables thrown together... they said they couldn't seat us all at the same table but if they were jamming them together anyway they certainly could have. The waitress said they were switching the menu so they didn't have everything, then proceeded to list almost everything on the menu as unavailable. That's not an exaggeration, it was literally half the menu, maybe more. How are onion rings seasonal? Also how were there onions in my seasonal vegetables side if you don't have onions? Ridiculous. Mac n cheese is seasonal? Nonsense. There was some sort of broken appliance near us by the bar that was spurting water all over the entire time we were there. The waitress, who I do feel bad for because she was clearly being overworked, never took a drink order from us. We decided to let that go because we were already sick of being there and felt no need to add more work for the staff. The music was so loud, and so much extra noise from plates, glasses, and blenders, that they couldn't even hear our orders without screaming. A glass broke at a near-by table and most of that glass was still on the ground when we left... pathetic. The only reason its not 1 star is that my duck taco was excellent, but honestly don't waste your time here until they figure out how to run a business. 600$+ bill for an awful time that basically ruined my grandmas birthday, they should be ashamed.

It was ok. Somewhat disappointing for the price. I don't think I'd go back. The service was good but the food was lukewarm and small portions with large price tags and that was just for the more casual first floor. The steakhouse upstairs is supposedly extremely expensive.

I had really high expectations for the NY 12 oz but they were unfortunately unrealized. Not cooked enough and a very rubbery experience. The chocolate cake, though, was delicious.

Jamal is the best waiter/waitress in all of Tremblant. Friendly, excellent service, great personality. 11 out of 10!!

If I could give zero stars I would. The service is almost as bad as the food. I ordered the French onion soup and it tasted like I could have bought it from a can at the grocery store. Ordered the nachos and it was a congealed mess served separate from the chips. This is my first time writing a review but it was that bad. Not to mention overpriced I thought I was hallucinating looking at the menu. Xoxo don't come here my love!

Came here around lunch and it was pretty busy. Pros: - Service was great Cons: - Pricey for what's offered - Food was sub par.

We were greeted by Francis Maître D to a nice view of the Xmas tree on the second floor. Restaurant is cozy and nicely decorated with horse accessories and sort of history throughout the restaurant. We tried the duck wings which we were told by our waiter Bruce have been on the menu for 8 years now and can understand why. They come in a confie with maple syrup which is simply delicious. My gf had the onion soup which has a base of dark beer if I understand right and she loves it. She finished with a creme brûlée which she found divine but I found not as consistent as I would of loved. Great waiter nice ambiance great for romantic dinner or just to enjoy nice appetizers or meal. Did not try any main course as I was not hungry. If you are in mint tremblant and have the budget for a steak house restaurant I would highly recommend you come here. Enjoy :)

Great après ski place. The ambiance is friendly, noise level average and they have so many tables it's doubtful you'll have to wait long. They're literally across the slopes. Can't miss this place. We had a beer after our day if skiing and some nachos. Which are served separately. You get a bowl of plain nachos and a sauce made out of fresh tomatoes , cheese, chicken and spices. And you dip your nachos in it. It's different but good

The Good: Service and respect of health guidelines / safety during covid. I felt safe and the staff was very nice. Location is nice. The Bad: Food was overpriced and very bad. Ordered the lobster & crab club sandwich. It was soggy and tasteless. Also ate the lobster salad with grapefruit vinaigrette. You could tell the lobster was frozen for too long. It was almost dehydrated it was so dry! Tasteless, chewy weird. I wouldn't recommend eating here. Maybe a poutine could have been ok (?)

Sorry to say, I'd skip this one, or at least if its busy season. We actually came here twice. The first time we ate upstairs where its more expensive. The food was good, but the service was poor. We should of not given it a second chance, but because the menu is different downstairs, we wanted to sit outside and look at the mountain so we gave it a try. Started with the host, when we approached the restaurant. For some reason he was offended that I said we have 3 in our party and sort of challenged me, ignoring my request, and sternly said, "I said 'how are you?'". Like he was offended that I didn't start our conversation with a salutation. I really didn't think much of it, but when I answered, "great" with a smile, we wasn't looking at me and had an expression of disinterest or disapproval. Maybe a disdain for Americans. We had a great seat outside with a Mountain View. The entire process was so rushed. Once we were seated and given water, we didn't see our waiter for about 15 minutes and had to flag him down to order. I started with foie gras. It was average. But it only came with 1 small piece of toast. When I managed to find the waiter and ask for more toast, it was truly 20 minutes before I got it. And that was with me having to get up and ask the hostess to the back of the restaurant, who forgot my request, because when I looked at her from afar, then she approached my waiter. Then the waiter brought 4 pieces of garlic bread. Well, I had to wait so long, and garlic bread to eat with foie gras is a major faux pas. It ruined the experience. When the 2 hour lunch finally ended he sat there and watched me fill out the bill and then actually expressed to me his dissatisfaction about the amount of his tip. Has this ever happened to you?? So I politely told him about what was lacking in our dining experience. The location will keep this place busy but may reviews comment on the bad service and the food is average at best.

We were recommend to La Forge from le shack when we wanted to watch the Canadians game and they couldn't accommodate our group. We sat down in the back within view of 2 small TV's, small enough to be kind of a joke. The waiter was nice and patient with our group The food was ok, nothing that spectacular. The appetizer I got, the salmon with the spread left you thinking, I guess presentation doesn't count here. As a plate was brought out with 8 small slices of toasted bread and a jar with smoked salmon and cream cheese mixed together. For an entrée I ordered the French onion soup in a bread bowl. The soup was actually pretty good, I had no complaints there but a friend ordered another one and complained about how salty it was, never tried it so I can't attest to this but I trust him when he says something is to salty. For dessert I ordered there crème brulee which was awesome. The plating of this was really nice and the dessert itself was delicious. A little pricey as it cost as more then my dinner but it was good.

Very nicely situated in the middle of the village. Mind you that this is a manufactured tourist village so everything is new and organized. When I think of the word 'Village' I associate an older area that has slowly grown over decades....enough of that. The restaurant had great promise with all the right ambience, menu, wine list, and location but it fell short on the quality of food. Everything was good but there was nothing I couldn't get at my local family run resto. He menu had lots of promise with exotic sounding items but in the end the truffle fries were ordinary, the onion soup disappointing, and the steaks were stringy. We were 8 people so we tried different mains. The one main course that stood out was the rack of lamb. That's what I ordered, and lucked out. We dined upstairs which had the fancy menu (and prices) and in hindsight we should have sat downstairs which is a relaxes sports bar with a simpler menu. The service was very good, our waiter explained the menu and how the plates are served. He was attentive and polite, even with 8 guys not very happy with the food. Thank you for putting up with us.

Very disappointed. I visited this place 2 years ago and I had a wonderful time. This is what made me come back. To my surprise, it took forever for the waitress to come take our order even when the place was not crowded. We had to ask her to clean the table since it was dirty (apparently due to previous customers). We finally got our food but they never put the salt and pepper in our table. We ended up asking the waiter to bring it to us. Once we finished my friend asked for a espresso, well, no sugar was provided. To tap it all, we asked for the tap and again, it tool forever for the waitress to bring it. When we paid, the waitress overcharged us by mistake (she charged twice the amount). She had to look for the manager. The manager arrived with another payment device which never worked. We had to wait for another which finally did. On the other hand, I can say the food was very good.

1. Be prepared to pay double your usual restaurant bill. 2. Be prepared to be amazed by Filet Mignon - it will MELT in your mouth! Order some nachos with cheese to go with your beer too, they're not your usual nachos - to die for!!!

"There's never chicken in a Caesar salad, only bacon!".... noooo :) This is very too much a junk food place for us. No vegetable, only meat meat meat and pizza.

Mediocre food, incredibly overpriced considering the quality or lack thereof, very slow but friendly service, & an awful beer selection. I know this place is a ski mountain tourist trap but I still expect better. Not to mention the very loud pseudo-european dance soundtrack turned up to 11 at 530pm for dinner. This might as well have been the garish McDonald's of the Mont-Tremblant restaurant circuit. Not an overall pleasant experience.

Good food. I enjoyed the kids chicken tenders and I upgraded the fries to truffle fries. The buffalo cauliflower was amazing too. Friends had tuna and beef tartar and said the tuna was much better. They did not like the beef. The nachos were not worth $20. I wouldn't even pay $10 for them. They put salsa in a skillet and a layer of cheese on top with some veggies. Not good at all. They were kind enough to take them off our bill since we didn't eat it.

REVIEW OF UPSTAIRS STEAKHOUSE- EXCEEDED MY LOW EXPECTATIONS! Having spent 4 days at Mont Tremblant last week, we figured we would try out the resort's "premium" restaurant. Having read online reviews from Yelp and Google, I was expecting all variety of problems. The reviews for this restaurant belong to their own special subcategory in which a frustrated manager takes issue with every criticism and responds to EACH REVIEW in an obsequious yet simultaneously argumentative and condescending tone. I have a small tip for restaurant owners and managers: When people are criticizing staff for being rude and providing poor service, it's never a brilliant idea to try to argue your way out from under a bad review. You are essentially giving customers an amuse bouche of your high handed arrogance before they even walk through your door. As I said, we happened to be in Tremblant village which is usually synonymous with restaurants well practiced in the timeless art of mind numbing mediocrity. Against our better judgment, we gave La Forge a go. I told myself that in the worst case scenario, I'd describe the trainwreck on Yelp and perform a public service. No such trainwreck ensued however! I don't know if we got lucky or if the other reviews are somehow inaccurate. We were seated at a nice table upstairs and immediately approached by a friendly waitress who took our drink orders. Their menu is standard for a steakhouse. Like many other establishments, the price for a given cut of meat does not include sides or a salad. (There is only one Gibbys.....scratch that, there's a second one in St. Sauveur) I ordered the Ribeye for 50$, accompanied by several sides for the table as well as a tuna tartare to start. With drinks, dinner here will easily run you north of 125$/person including tax and tip. They are competing with generic and tired fare at the neighbouring restaurants in the village and so they better deliver if they are going to charge such a premium. The steak was actually pretty awesome. It was thick, extremely well marbled, caramelized, and melted in your mouth. (All the adjectives I look for in a boneless ribeye) The tuna tartare and accompanying fried wonton chips were of the standard variety, yet tasted good. My Maker's Mark on the rocks was poured generously. My wife's shrimp cocktail however was one of the most impressive versions I have ever sampled anywhere. The shrimp were enormous. There were only 3 of them served, but at this size, it's like eating 5 shrimp anywhere else. They tasted extremely fresh. The bread rolls were small and warm. It doesn't appear as if they are baked in house. For sides, we ordered the fries, lobster mash, and sautéed mushrooms. While I don't eat mushrooms, The fries were unremarkable and served their purpose for 7$. The 18$ lobster mash is a trap that should be avoided however. The potatoes are overly puréed, mysteriously sweet, and served with microscopic and scarce pieces of lobster that you just know have spent the majority of their summer in a freezer instead of an ocean. There was a small service hiccup in that once the mains were placed on the table, about 4 minutes passed until the side dishes made their way out of the kitchen. I'm one of those guys who doesn't like to eat either one without the other. At the 4 minute mark, we were just on the precipice of getting annoyed when the sides were served. Coordinating and timing is Chef school 101. I can see how hypothetically extending the wait by a few more minutes could tarnish the dining experience. It's steak AND potatoes, not steak THEN potatoes. I suspect, this is not an isolated incident as the spontaneous apologies from the waitress came off as effusive and rote. All together, I really enjoyed dinner here and would return the next time we visit Tremblant. This place won't necessarily compete with the great steakhouses in North America, but when you're isolated in a ski hill village, it's nice to know you can still get a decent slab of beef.

I had my birthday party here following the recommendations of some locals. I could say that I was quite disappointed with the food. The serving was too small and not very savoury. It could be the high expectations after being told to "make sure to go upstairs and not downstairs" as they had completely different menus. The only thing that stood out here was the POUDIN CHOMEUR for dessert. It was fantastique! Also our server Jean C was amazing!

I have been visiting Mont Tremblant for a decade now ... but very surprised i have not reviewed this place yet. When it gets to Tremblant this is the best place to dine out. The portions are so big! I would reccomend sharing a dish. For example tonight i oredered a 14 oz New York steak but asked to split it to two 7 oz to share with my guest. You need to check out thus place if you are in the village.

The La Forge has two floors, the first floor is a bit more noisy bar style, whereas the second floor is a little more quiet dining atmosphere. We had our lunch at the second floor and the atmosphere is comfortable. Service is great. The duck wings with maple and coffee sauce is absolutely excellent. Duck wings doesn't have too much meat but it is crispy and juicy. The maple coffee sauce is a great compliment of the wings. It's definitely the best duck wings i have ever had. The KOBE Burger on the other hand is so so. The beef patty is small in both diameter and thickness compared to the bun. You can barely see that beef patty. The presentation is not the best. The restaurant seem to be proud of the KOBE name, but then not 'showcase' them properly is definitely a total waste. The taste is great, but nothing spectacular... Upgraded to poutine, the fries was fresh, but the size of the cheese curds are, in my opinion - too big. I didn't get a chance to try other dishes, but if I were to come back to Tremblant I would definitely have their duck wings... And may try out their Foie Gras Mignon that only offer at dinner time.

This is a bistro style restaurant at the foot of Mt Tremblant. I came by for a drink and a quick bite on a Friday afternoon. Service is a bit slow. I waited 10 minutes outside before a server even came out and the restaurant was not busy, many a handful of tables. Once seated outside on the patio the service improved but overall still slow. The menu has good options, usual selections salads, burgers pizza, appetizers, cocktails and alcohol. There is a children's menu. They did really well on the kids cheese pizza. Crust was light fluffy and crispy and good amount of melted cheese on top. A bit like a pizza bagel from a supermarket but this was made fresh and warm. Prices are a bit higher and I didn't find the price reflected on the quality of the food. Portions are small. I had the green salad with marinated tuna. This turns out to be tuna tataki and there was only 4 pieces for the add on of $11. Green salad entree size also $11. Calamari appetizer was $19. Overall convenient location for a quick bite but over priced for what you get.

Pretty good steakhouse but a little pricey. I got my steak topped off with foie gras and a side of lobster. Brownie dessert came out piping hot and gooey!

Decent bar and restaurant at the foot of the slopes in Tremblant. Came here for a drink and bite in the afternoon. Tables weren't available but they wouldn't allow waiting at the bar for a table which was slightly annoying. The bartender was somewhat attentive but not completely. The beers on tap were good - they actually had Budweiser on tap which most people would scoff at but I liked. I had the Smith Burger which was well made and the fries were solid.
