Le Serpent

Quality of the dish was amazing. We love the presentation. There were four of us for a business meal. We ordered most of the menus and few season items pairing with wine for white and red were both amazing. Definitely recommend visiting here again. One thing we want to try would be the main menus as we shared the Bronzino and the steak and she appetizers. Desserts were very nice as well. recommend booking on advance

I walked into this place not knowing what I should expect. I loved it. Maya (maybe Mia) the hostess was fabulous and friendly. She got me a seat on the bar without reservation. The bartenders were so friendly and knowledgeable of the food. I would highly recommend. Loved the beef tartar also the rabbit. I would go back to try the pastas.

It looks very unassuming from the outside … but trust me … once you make your way inside , the modern industrial ambiance is quite welcoming. The service was fantastic. Our server recommended several options of wine to pair with our dishes. Each dish had its unique flavour pairings. The portions were somewhat small for the appetizers, but the taste made up for it. Lovely experience.

The meal was the highlight of our Canada trip. We loved the location in an old factory that whilst open with soaring ceilings was well laid out so that it wasn't noisy. We started with the asparagus and zucchini flower specials followed by the venison and pasta, with tiramisu to cap it off, accompanied by a nice bottle of red. The food was superb, the colours and flavours of the asparagus with the dill dressing and prosciutto the standout. The tiramisu was simply decadence on a plate. Service could not be faulted. Definitely recommend visiting if in Montreal

The service lacked attention to detail so it wasn’t on the same level as the food. Adam was kind and professional and took great care of us from the kitchen. I had the veal which was a special, and the crudo was delicious.

Will definitely be going back! My girlfriend and I had dinner at Le Serpent yesterday, and we had a wonderful experience for her birthday! The food was delicious, especially the Bucatini and the grilled octopus, both of which were fantastic. For dessert, the "Nuage" was a perfect, light, and refreshing finish to the meal. Our server, Eric, was really friendly and made the evening even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this spot for a great dining experience!

Very good and in a good location in Montreal. Special appetizer asparagus was outstanding - as was the burrata beef tartare appetizer. Mains Risotto and Venison were good too but the appetizers really shined.

An iconic restaurant in Griffintown, both location and vibe. I personally don’t enjoy the warehouse/industrial vibe, but it is for some people. What’s certain is that the food is impeccable and stunning. The ingredients are fresh, from pasta to seafood going through seasonings and vegetables, you get an explosion of taste with every bite. The place is brimming with staff for proper and quick service. 5/5 overall score, the lower stars are just my personal taste which doesn’t apply to everyone.

Service here was on point. Perfect place to have a great meal with friends or family as the crowd is very mixed. Very industrial feel inside with appropriate decorations. If you do not know the little sign they have it's basically on an empty block. The food was hitting g very well. I can see the hype. The menu is not large by any means, but what they have they do very well.

One of the best meals I've ever had. We weren't really dressed appropriately, but they still let us in and were nice and inclusive. The vibe isn't really my personal jam, but the food was so good I Will go back for sure.

Visit: 3/2022 Review finished: 3/2024 Unfortunately I am attempting to finish this review in 2024, long after visiting this establishment so I do not recall my visit here in detail besides giving it 5/5 stars and the photo evidence I have. I do remember the spot was a bit hard to find but I feel like that's what they are going for, nondescript entrance. The inside is grand with such big (privacy) windows still with loads of natural light coming through. We had a large party so our reservation was fairly early and the restaurant was fairly empty at the time. It filled up much more by the time we left. I remember we shared a wine bottle but couldn't tell you which. I had the pasta posted in my pictures, if you recognize the name of it, please comment because no way I remember. Anyway, the one thing I truly know is that in my very trusted book of ratings, I absolutely enjoyed this spot and the food was amazing. So I'll be back and do a better job reviewing next time.

This is one of the high class restaurants that I had eyes on over 2 years ago. And then the pandemic raised its ugly head. Tonight, for a very very special occasion, we are seated at this restaurant. I have never made a booking at a restaurant where there was so much attention to detail. Email was answered promptly and professionally. What a great start! Check in was even better. We were fortunate to have Andréane looked after us from start to finish. It was a pleasure to let her indulge us with the wine selection to start with. We ordered the razor clams, oysters as entree. The main course was Branzilon, Loup de Mer, a fish from the Mediterranean that is meant to share for two. The other main was Linguini, Speck, Amande, Chou-fleur, truffle-hachée. Our reservation was at 5.45pm on Saturday and by 6.30pm, the place was jam packed Washroom was private with GOJO foam soap, auto hand dryer and clean. I am allergic to dirty washroom, and trust me when I tell you that washroom are well maintained and clean. Back to the razor clams and the oysters. Simply delicious. Trust me. Both oysters and clams were sitting on a bed of sea salt, not on the traditional shaved ice what we are used to. Focaccia bread was incredibly good with dripping olive oil. Loup de mer was excellent! Fish meat was firm and so tender. Atmosphere was somewhat noisy, but it is jammed packed, but you can still carry on a good conversation. This restaurant is a place that is meant to be remembered, and if you want to take a picture to carry on a memory that will last a hundred years, then this IS the place. Atmosphere is a 5, the food is 6 and Andreane has helped make it a 10.

So not the place for kids as menu is limited and fish and steak is for two and over 100$ but my son and I went. Had oysters nothing special from Prince Edward Island (usual) they took a twist on spaghetti carbonara and that was pretty good but very salty. The duck to be served with brioche is out of my licking as duck is already fat so having a buttery bread is too much. It's not bad but not the best. If you follow me I have rated some restaurants better. Also if you go don't be scared of outside as I couldn't tell it was a restaurant we were Justin's an alley with a small black door saying the name. Not bad but not the best.

Le Serpent is well known in town as a serious eat. The interior is all open, sober in colours but airy in natural light. We booked for an early dinner, and were served with great attention and courtesy. We started with the crudo, which was a selection of three. This was perhaps the least accomplished dish of the dinner. The scallop had a nice heat, but the orange meant to balance it with sweetness was too timid. The salmon was topped with strangely cut cucumber that brought little to taste, and the plate was unfortunately badly wiped. The highlight of the meal was definitely the main grilled fish and vegetables. Whoever is managing the grill is a rockstar! All the magical flavours conferred by fire were brought out and enhanced. The corn and other seasonal vegs were delightfully tender and charred, and the fennel gave an aromatic sweetness to the deboned fish. I couldn't get enough! Lastly came the dessert, a beautifully glazed, creamy construct surrounded by little jewels in red. The tapioca pearls had unfortunately hardened due to probably cold storage, but the basil gave the strawberries a brilliant freshness. A very nice meal!

Le serpent, come hungry, leave happy... This rating is for the food only not the service. That said, the service is impeccable. I used to eat out a lot. Not so much anymore. Lately though, my passion for food has been rekindled. My search for lobster dishes continues... I think I've been here before a few years back... probably wasn't bad, honestly don't remember. Haha The starter: I had the sweetbread tartlet. The tart crust was very flaky and light. The filling had sweetbreads caramelized onions carrots and some mushrooms. The whole thing topped with a mousse made of cèpes (a kind of mushroom) The first bite was an explosion of contrast, light mousse and flaky pastry, mushroom gave you something to chew, the sweetbread was soft both bathed in a mildly salty creamy sauce and then you're hit with a touch of sweetness from the onions... perfect bite. I ate it slowly because I wanted to drag it out forever... The main: lobster risotto. I meant to try out a lobster dish, though the ravioli and pintade dish were very enticing. The rice was cooked Al dente . The sauce was creamy and well salted and the basil add a nice herby freshness. My only caveat was the lack of lobster flavor it was just a creamy risotto with some lobster thrown in. A solid dish nonetheless. Dessert: the primavera. A pistachio citrus cake with slices of clementine rind. The rind was soaked in simple syrup so it was not bitter. The whole thing was topped with kumquat ice cream and the cake was ribboned with white chocolate. Again contrasting textures and layers of fragrant perfumes from the pistachio to the rind and kumquat. The most original dessert I've tasted in a long while. I almost ordered another one. I often find dessert at nice restaurants to be lacking or unimaginative. And often not matching the style of the savory menu... The dessert here is refreshing interesting and yummy. And most importantly the play of contrasting flavors and textures seem to follow from the savory menu. A gem.

Had an amazing solo birthday here last night. The server, Marie, was incredibly friendly and helpful with suggestions. I had the Fois Gras Parfait, Bucatini w/ Black Garlic & Maple Tart for dessert. My only issue is I didn't get more food. Everything was incredible. I would definitely be back and would highly recommend! It's a great setting for an intimate date or dinner with friends as well!

Le Serpent is a hidden gem in Griffintown that we walked by twice beside it is in an unassuming factory building. Once inside, it is brightly lit and beautifully adorned in its simplicity. The staff is really friendly and makes great recommendations. The food was delicious - we enjoyed oysters, the grilled octopus was tasty, and the lobster risotto was also very good. Everything on the menu sounded so good that I recommend visiting with people who don't mind sharing!

Exceptional food and service in a cool venue. Food was really impressive (crudo then linguine). Rococo dessert and mezcal wait on a sore plane were also big highlights.

Put this one on your list if you haven't been. Housed in an unassuming industrial space, the restaurant is not terribly hard to find but best to look for the funky black and white emblem that mirrors the website. We arrived at 7:30 for a reservation at 8pm. The place was hopping but they were able to seat us early. Of note, the bar is reserved seating only on the weekends when they're busy so you can't just show up and grab a drink at the bar before your meal. I ordered a classic negroni cocktail and my husband had a signature cocktail on the menu-both were nicely crafted. The menu is really nice as it allows for even a small party to try various appetizers and half portions of pasta in addition to the entrees. I started with the linguini with speck, truffle and black pepper-really stunning. My husband had the fiori verde with shrimp and Chiles. The flavors were balanced and delicious albeit the shrimp tiny as described by others. The shape of the pasta is very unusual and worth ordering. The duck entree was lovey, not fatty and cooked beautifully medium rare. I enjoyed the artic char. The vegetable of the day was a medley of cauliflower, snap peas, broccolis and mushrooms which were roasted to perfection and very tender. A true standout. We shared the Tiramisu and another chocolate dessert. The tiramisu is a bit overrated but the other one was sublime. The wine selection is also very nice. Service was on point. Would definitely come back when I am in town. Highly recommend.

My meal was absolutely divine. I had one of the specials (forgot the entire name) but it was a duck over pasta. Absolutely mouthwatering! From the cook of the homemade pasta to the sauce to the duck to the vegetables to the cheese to the focaccia - 1000/10!! And great atmosphere! Definitely fine dining so dress to impress :) Adding this gem to my top favs list for Montréal.

Delicious food, friendly staff. Foie gras was the best one I ever had. Pasta was so had and Desserts were Amazing. Will return for sure when I visit Montreal again!

This is five star dining to be sure with excellent service and a nice menu even though it's short. There are many interesting options on this menu and several really hit the mark. The Octopus Appetizer was not one of them, unfortunately, because there was barely any Octopus. The star of the $19 show was absent and we were super bummed about that because we love good Octopus. The main dishes were excellent although I had to look up Nordic Shrimp because I envisioned big, plump shrimp packed with flavor, right? NORDIC as in VIKINGS and BIG SHIPS. Nope. Teeny tiny, itty bitty, shrimp with the most delicious sauce, kale and pasta I have ever had. Still a little bummed about the shrimp size but the flavor made up for it. We also tried the braised lamb ravioli dish and that was spectacular in flavor as well. Rich, hearty lamb flavors with peas and sun dried tomatoes and olives! Fantastic! Dessert was sort of a miss too. The Tiramisu was way too heavy on the chocolate - it totally overpowered the rest of the dish and the maple pudding with the biscuit just wasn't that exciting to be honest. It was full of maple flavor and the biscuit was good but it was off balance in texture - almost too much pudding and not enough crunchy contrast. We loved our server! She was terrific. It's pretty noisy and tables are super close together and there is a really cool vibe with low lighting and nice music.

Italian Fusion. Amazing experience. Apps, entrees, desert and cocktails top notch. Great vibe and lovely service. Highly recommend

Beautiful little gem. It's got a cool industrial setting that's somehow also very elegant. The food is great, also the wine list has some wonderful options. Lovely place for a date night.

Excellent food! The focaccia was soft and delicious, perfect amount of salt. The cod was soft, pastas were delicious, and the desserts were nicely balanced. Service was wonderful, had some nice chats with our waitress. Warehouse setting is cool! A little frightening walking in (thought we were in the wrong place at first), but a very pleasant surprise upon opening the door. 10/10 recommend!

Le Serpent is just a fantastic restaurant in Montreal. The food tasted as great as it looked; many pictures that show that detail were happily added. The service was also on par with with any other fine dining I visited in the city. I loved the interior space as well; at night the atmosphere is just fantastic. If you are new to Montreal or visiting, the restaurant can be a little nondescript so be on the lookout when close by.

Do you love excellent Italian food? Do you love very cool rehabbed industrial spaces. Do you love excellent drinks and service? Then this is the place for you. Can't recommend highly enough!

Phenomenal service, super attentive and knowledgeable, amazing food. Great design as well, captures the industrial heritage of Viex Montreal through a cool, creative retro lens. Pro cocktails as well. Nothing phoned in, all top-tier in every respect.

Where do I even begin! My boyfriend and I went to Le Serpent last Saturday for a late dinner aroud 9:30-10. The restaurant decor is really beautiful, modern yet industrial and the lights we slightly dimmed which was very romantic. Everything on the menu sounded really interesting, aside from the menu, they had 3-4 daily specials. The staff was very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. They made great recommendations and helped us order the right amount of food for two. We started off with the burrata and foie gras as our appetizers. Never in my life have I tasted a better burrata! It wasn't a classic burrata, it was quite smokey and different but it was absolutely amazing on their rosemary focaccia bread. The waitress had recommended the foie gras. It was very fruity and delicous especially on that warm brioche bread they brought with it. My bf said it was his favourite foie gras (and trust me hes tasted SO many). We were already blown away by the appetizers. We then decided to order a dish of pasta as our main and their famous veal orzotto. Wowwwwww both dishes we honestly fantastic, every bite was a mix of 3-4 different ingredients that blended so well together it was amazing. The orzotto was a barley risotto with veal and foie gras shavings on top. It was sooooooo creamy and so different. 11/10. We loved le serpent so much we're planning on going back very soon. Prices were not bad, the quality of the food was honestly top notch! We were so full we didnt have enough room for dessert, I heard they have an awesome dessert menu. We'll be sure to try out their desserts next time!! Thank u so much le serpent for a delicous and unforgettable meal

Disappointed. I went there a few times and I was always blown away. Not today. Upon arriving, the maitre D placed a small table close to our table to hold my wife's bag as our table was too small to put it in our table. The waitress took the small table back, arguing that it would make serving our table more difficult. We argued that we had nowhere to place my wife's bag, but she didn't care. She wasn't impolite, but didn't want to help us. As a customer, I'm expecting staff to go out of their way to help us, and that small table would have been only a minor inconvenience for her. No big deal, but that was a bad omen. Appetizers arrived and the waiter told us to eat the crudo from left to right, which we did. The first one was the tastiest, the last one the blandest. Normally, it should be the opposite: start with the one the least flavourful and finish with the one that is the tastiest - crescendo, not diminuendo. Again, no big deal, but felt like neglect: if the waiter can't give proper instructions, then the experience gets damaged. Finally, the main courses arrived: SO SALTY! Everything tasted like salt, my wife couldn't finish her plate. The rice in my lobster risotto was perfectly cooked, but the lobster was overcooked. And salty, so salty. Then the dessert came, a tiramisu with coffee poured on by the maitre D. The coffee he put in completely drowned the taste of the tiramisu, which tasted more like a frappuccino than a tiramisu. Couldn't taste the tiramisu, only the coffee. You may ask why I didn't complained. Well, for a restaurant of that level, I shouldn't have to. I'm guessing someone is tasting the food before serving it. If they chose to serve me that food, then I will respond with my feet and never go there again. Overall, it felt like no one was managing the restaurant that evening. We left feeling disappointed. As customers, we expect consistency, and if a restaurant is five stars one day and two stars the next, we can't rely on it, and not visit again.

Great service, awesome wine list and phenomenal pasta! The Tiramisu is also an absolute must! Only caveat was the burrata. Although the plate was flavorful, the portion of cheese was tiny.

Our first dinner in Montreal and it has set the bar for Montreal restaurants quite high! We ordered their daily special appetizer which was seared scallops and it was done just right! The sauce was like a hollandaise sauce and very buttery. The four of us ordered the rotisserie for two which was roasted whole branzino with olives, pistachio and dill. I have never had such a nice aromatic yet soft roast fish before! It was delicious! The meat was soft and the pistachio with pickled olive slices give it a very nice balance to the soft roasted meat! It has a nice Mediterranean slant and the lime gave it a very light aftertaste!! The dish came with roasted veggies and the veggies were so crispy. The veggies sat on a bed of bell pepper and millet puree and the presentation was wonderful!! A meal cannot be complete with desserts! We ordered four desserts including the recommended Felicita! The lemon tart was very light and I find that mascarpone a bit too overpowering. The almond cake was okay and the chestnut ice cream tasted soooooo good! That alone can be a standalone offering! Felicita was the best! A chocolate cake with a nice crispy base, the mousse was not too sweet and one could tell the ice cream is homemade! Really really tasty!! The last dish is Tiramisu. Coffee was too strong and so was the chocolate. It almost tasted sour! Server was courteous and professional! Luv this place! Will come back for aure!!

I had heard a lot about this place so decided to check it out for dinner. Our server was really nice and helpful. I can be very picky when it comes to wine so he really helped me to pick what I really liked. As for food, I ordered the mushroom risotto and tiramisu. Unfortunately, I was not impressed by the food. I am not sure if I would ever go back here unless they add some new items to their menu. The risotto tasted bland. And the tiramisu was quite bitter. I have had some delicious tiramisu because it's my favourite dessert. I was really disappointed in this one.

I hosted a dinner party for four at Le Serpent. This was my first visit. This place is off the beaten path but worth seeking out! The decor is upscale with lots of dark wood accents and industrial looking lighting. Speaking of upscale, the customers were far better dressed than average for the port area so glam it up a little when going! We shared apps: oysters, fois gras and octopus. Almost everyone ordered the evening special of bison short rib with a lone holdout choosing the cod. Desserts varied between cheese, maple custard, and hazelnut cake. The table raved about the quality of the food and service. This was a top notch experience!

By far the best cuisine I had in my 4 days in Montreal. I could tell from a quick glance at the kitchen as I was walking in that the chef rules with authority in that space - it was spotless while in the middle of dinner service. The ambiance is great with a Brooklyn vibe (I'm from new york so we're very familiar with the exposed structure / old brick type of space). plenty of space between tables, so even when the place got packed on a Tuesday evening, it didn't feel crowded. The service was efficient and well-trained.

This restaurant is fabulous . Everything was delicious but the pasta dishes really stood out. We ordered crudo, burrata, halibut , and four different pastas. The signature pork bucatini was so good that we ordered it a second time. Then we got two desserts. When I got home I wished for more bucatini and regretted not ordering a third bucatini to go before leaving the restaurant. The ambience was fun and airy and the service was impeccable. Just go to le Serpent and you'll see what I mean. You won't regret it. Make sure to order at least two bucatinis.

Usually one star reviews come from upset customers. That is not the case here, the staff was great - this one instead comes from one very offended palette. It was dish after dish of the oversaturated flavors, with the largest offenders being the "special" pasta which was basically pasta drowned in butter and a fish in what essentially soupy BBQ sauce. Montreal lived up to the hype as a foodie town but Le Serpent was an unfortunate aberration.

If you ask me to recommend a good restaurant for fresh seafood and italien cuisine, this will be the one!! I went there with two friends. We shared an oysters. Soooooo freeeeesh! For the main dish, I got lobster risotto. It was so good. The flavour was balanced. The rice was neither too hard nor too sticky. One of my friends got duck meat. It burned a little bit from outside, but the meat inside was delicious! It was not too dry and it had a little bit grilled flavour. Another friend got truffle spaghetti. It tasted so good! The service is spotless. I also like the ambiance and decorations in the restaurant.

Very swanky spot serving great food, with the prices to match. It's hidden in what looks like an industrial building from the outside, but on the inside it's a very warehouse-chic. To be honest, I wouldn't come here on my own unless it was for a special occasion, but I was brought here by a colleague. She was treating, which always makes me kind of wary of ordering too much or anything expensive, so I didn't eat a whole lot as a result. But what I did have was excellent. We ordered a really nice wine, shared some oysters (they really know their oysters!), and I had a pasta dish. This place is an interesting concept because their dishes are kind of fusion - East meets West with heavy emphasis on the West. Or maybe it's better put to say it's Italianish with some Asian influences. But the structure of the menu is Italian for sure - there are first course pasta dishes (you can get a larger size if you're only having pasta), and then meat dishes. I had a first course-sized pasta, which was not enough because I'm a big eater but again, a colleague was treating. It was al dente, deliciously flavoured, and beautifully presented. This is the kind of place you might take a date if you really want to impress them!

Came here for dinner with my girlfriend and another couple. We had all never been here before but none of us left with any regrets. The food was incredible and so was the service.

Le Serpent is an industrial landscape turned urban dining room. Be warned the menu is on the expensive side. The wine selection and menu are of only high quality. This is my second visit here, but this time for dessert since I was joining friends after dinner. I tried their appetizer, tuna tartar 2/5 at 23$ that was presented on a slice of tomato that concealed the true flavours of the tuna, it would've been nice to have some bread or crackers to have with it. I opted for the Paloma drink which was refreshing. Cocktails are affordable starting at 10$. For dessert I was expecting cheese cake 1/5 but got a deconstructed version of it instead (not very impressive). I give points for attempted creativity but the essential elements of a cheesecake are still lacking. I will definitely skip on dessert during my next visit,

On a quiet street in Montreal lies this gem that you would never know exists if walking by. Housed in a warehouse looking building and behind a mysterious black door, Le Serpent is a ultra modern restaurant that serves up some great food and offers an excellent wine selection. I came on a Tuesday evening and dined at the bar because, well the bar is the best seat in any restaurant. Grabbed a few glasses of wine and then got the run down on the menu from the bartender. For my meal I had risotto and linguini. The risotto was very good and the linguini was delicious. The portions were a little on the small side, but the meals themselves were excellent. The other stand out, which kind of freaked me out a bit, was the fact that the meals were prepared and served in less than five minutes after I ordered. It was to the point where I had to ask if the food was already pre-made, to which the server replied that the chefs are just that good. Very impressive! All in all a great restaurant in a city that is overflowing with great dining options.

The food looks elegant and very tasty. The appetizer portobello is Amazing! Octopus is also yummy. We ordered pork pasta, for me it's a bit salty. The waitress gladly change for us and charge the less expensive one. They are so professional and considerable. We had a good time there.

Trendy restaurant, warehouse esthetic. Great food and creative cocktails. I enjoyed the burrata and tomato salad and duck. Cool neighborhood.

Last night was my third visit at this resto and I can finally write the stellar review it deserves! An invite from a fellow foodie and blogger turned to an amazing evening of delicious food, great service, and memorable fun. The venue itself is just perfect; nice marble bar at the entry, beautiful industrial chic decor, and beautifully minimalistic tables settings. The dim lighting and dark walls add to the space and vibe. Our group decided to share plates to get a better feel of the menu and I'm so happy we did; every dish was as good as the next and most really stood out for the delicious play of flavours and textures. We started with the foie gras parfait, rabbit tart, and burrata; the rabbit tart was perfection, and the foie gras with the buttery brioche was delectable. Then came pasta!! There was not one dish that wasn't just perfectly executed and flavourful; I understand why everyone highly recommended the linguini dish but the truffle ravioli was stupendous. For mains, we opted for the pork jowl, grilled duck, and lobster risotto. Although the risotto was a little heavy on the parm for my taste, overall the dishes were very flavourful and well presented. Finally was dessert, with a chocolate cake, tiramisu, maple pudding, and citrus tart; although all were delicious, I preferred the tiramisu and chocolate cake mostly cause they aren't as sweet and I live for coffee and chocolate combos. The service was very attentive, from clearing the table to constantly filling our glasses, we were surely taken care of. The waitress was also very helpful with wine pairings, and I most enjoyed my chardonnay. This place is surely on my tops for the amazing food and service, and with a smaller price ticket for the quality of service and food, I will surely return again.

Food was excellent. Small portions. Loved the vibe of this restaurant. Lobster risotto is a must! Only reason for the 4 stars is because of the portion size.

I came here on a whim for dinner and it was by far my best meal in Montreal! From the food, to the drinks, ambience, and staff...perfect. We started with the oysters and burrata. The maple mignonette was the perfect compliment to the fresh oysters. We also really enjoyed the crispy black chickpeas with the burrata. I had the pumpkin ravioli as my main while my date had the lobster risotto. I could eat the pumpkin raviolis for dinner every single night, they were that good. Perfectly al dente in a light but flavorful sauce. Great staff- friendly and attentive, loved the wine our waitress suggested. I hope to be back the next time I'm in town.

What a great place! We came here on a Thursday night for my bachelorette party - we had 7 girls. The restaurant was extremely accommodating as we kept having to call prior to the reservation to make adjustments as we were running late (we were traveling in from the states). The management was super friendly and upon arrival had a perfect table set for us. The decor is very cool and the vibe of the restaurant is FUN. Walking down the street and into the front door, you would never expect such a unique restaurant hidden within the walls. We ordered some drinks and apps (burrata & octopus) and everything was delicious. The waitress was incredibly knowledgable about the menu and had great recommendations. We ordered a bunch of their dishes (linguini, bucatini, lobster risotto, vegetables for the vegetarian, etc) and shared and everything I tasted was amazing. You can definitely tell the pasta is fresh and the consistently was just perfect. My favorite dish was the bucatini and I know I will continue to have dreams about it. As we did have a vegan and vegetarian, the restaurant again was incredibly accommodating despite such a limited menu for this restriction. Overall, a wonderful experience and I highly recommend for the ambiance, the great service and delicious food.

Excellent dining experience Don't let the exterior of this restaurant keep you away. It is situated in an old garage and when you walk, you walk into a dark entrance that looks like a club. But once inside the bar and soft decor welcomes you. We were a party of 6 and all the appetizers ordered were delicious. Especially the fish 3 ways and the warm octopus. The octopus was tender and the puree was seasoned perfectly. The mains also were a success. The risotto with braised lamb was awesome (although I expected the shank to be there, the meat was removed from the bone and spread throughout the dish.). The salmon was fresh and tasty and so was the cod. All dishes were presented beautifully. I tried the tiramisu with expresso and it was delightful. They actually pour the expresso over the dessert in front of you. Nice touch! Definitely to be redone. https://www.tripadvisor.ca/ShowUserReviews-g155032-d6017748-r358112330-Le_Serpent-Montreal_Quebec.html#

One of the best meals I've ever had. The buccatini is to die for. We split a steak special and it rocked. The lobster risotto is amazing. The service was excellent. Ambiance is fantastic.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Go here. Had amazing carpaccio a incredible take on it. Old fashion was perfect. The gnocchi boar ragot was the best I've tasted. I'd rate it higher if I could. Fantastic atmosphere for a special occasion or intimate date. The location is deceiving from the outside, as it's in an old warehouse. But you walk in and you'd never know the treasure you'd pass outside

Ok, so as you walk by and you think, "There's no restaurant here. There are only warehouses." Then you know you'll arrived. We were walking down the street and I walked right by this place and had to double back because I definitely didn't think there was a legit resto inside. We walked in and were immediately and energetically greeted by one of the bartenders. We were taken to our seats and were immediately given water. Just from that opening interaction, I was sold. Our server came over and went over the menu, but most importantly, gave us enough time to review it and make a decision. We started with the Crudi, which was 3 (very small) pieces of fish and seafood. To be specific, there was a piece of salmon, a piece of scallop, and some other type of fish. They were all served raw and prepared with different tastes. They were all delicious. One was savory, one was kinda sweet, and one was more acidic. I ordered the lobster risotto as my main dish and it was fire. It was a bit pricey for what you actually get, but I felt full after. My bf ordered the oxtail pasta and it was fiiiiirrre. It's rare that he orders something and I feel like we need to switch dishes, but let me tell you, I would have fought him for his dish. The oxtail was tender and melted in your mouth. I'm legit salivating as I type this. The service was on point. I don't know our server's name, but she was fabulous. All in all, this was a fabulous experience.

This restaurant leaves me speechless... DELICIOUS! I don't believe the saumon confit is on the menu anymore, however if you ever have the opportunity to try this, jump on it! Needless to say all their other menu items are equally as nice!

Perfect service and incredible food at Le Serpent. We went there tonight and the experience was really good. Restaurant just opened couple weeks ago and everything detail is just good. I would only like more info on the wine selection. Le Filet and Chasse et Peche still on top of my list...but this one is going to be a top 10 in Montreal

I went to this restaurant in Old Port with three other friends, so we got to try a variety of dishes through sharing amongst us. As entrée, we took oysters, cruds (raw seafood), beef carpaccio, all of them were excellent, especially the cruds, simply heavenly! And then I tried the lobster risotto, and wasn't impressed by the taste since it was too salty, but the lobster tasted good! I actually fell in love with the orzotto with beef that my friend took since it was so well balanced and the taste of beef was just amazing! The very well known linguini of Serpent also lived up to its reputation, as well as the fish plate that my other friend tried, we had a great time at this beautiful and trendy restaurant. To finish up with a sweet touch, we tried the citrus tart, and it was just AMAZING! Try it! Reserve early to make sure to get a spot since this restaurant is quite busy!

Le Serpent served up some delicious dishes. We really enjoyed the octopus and the grilled duck. But the highlight of the night was the desserts! The tiramisu was PERFECT and the raspberry cheese cake with the strawberry sorbet was OUTSTANDING! You gotta eat here!

Class class class. If a restaurant could be voted only on class this eatery will most likely take the first prize. What makes it 5 star that it also got the classy food to back up. From the moment we entered they treated us with class. Took our coats/jackets to be hung so we could enjoy the dinner with comfort. We were shown to our seats and boom our journey of a sexy restaurant night started. A lot of restaurants focus so much on being presentable and stylish that they lose focus on the other things. Our server was very humble yet informative about the menu. He was very detailed which helped us make our dinner choices. He didn't hover around and kept checking in on us at the appropriate intervals. Didn't feel rushed at all which was surprising considering how busy the place was. Food recommendations; the linguini. Yumm! The slight hint of truffle oil was just mind blowing. And of course the Friday evening special BBQ duck was just mouth watering. Since the night had been so amazing a dessert was in order and glad we didn't skip that. The chocolate roll with ice cream though sounds simple but it was just orgasmic. The interior is very industrial like yet feels warm. Though Friday night and I'm assuming same for sat, it's very busy and trendy. Looking for a place for a date night or hanging out with friends/family over scrumptious meals in Montreal then this is your destination.
