The Best Montreal BYOB Restaurants | Eater Montreal

"Geneviève Desnoyers and chef husband Alain Loivel ran this southwestern French bistro for decades, and while the torch was passed to new owners a few years back, it has reportedly kept up its quality. Try the cassoulet." - Holly Tousignant

Wow... dinner here last night with my wife was one of the best meals either of us have had in a really long time, and as true foodies who cook all the time and love exploring and eating at all kinds of wonderful places... trust me when I say that's saying something! The food here is astonishingly good!! We started with the escargot which is impeccable, just delicious in every way... my wife had the incredible leg of lamb, and I had the extraordinary cassoulets... wow. It's hard to explain how amazing the guys in the kitchen's food truly is, I was looking for any critique possible and I didn't have one, a perfect 10/10 meal. Atmosphere is amazing, everyone else there was sitting enjoying each other's company and food and sharing the wine they all brought... another incredible aspect of the place! The lady serving us was very friendly and happy as well. This is a hidden gem 100%... share a stunning meal with the people you care about 👌🏻

One of the things that I've always loved about visiting Montréal is the wonderful dining experiences that you can have there, and P'tit Plateau is a great example of that. Classic French-style dishes beautifully prepared, with warm service in a cozy setting. The BYOB is an added plus as you can be sure to bring something you know that you'll like to drink.

Our server, Chelsea, greeted us when we entered. While our reservation didn't get received for some reason, she welcomed us, and seated us. We arrived at 6:30 pm and the restaurant filled up over the next 45 minutes. Be sure to make a reservation. I appreciated that Chelsea wasn't pretentious and she didn't push appetizers or dessert. She simply made excellent recommendations. When the restaurant was full, and she was busy, she efficiently handled the rush. I had the veal shank with vegetables, which was excellent, and quite filling. We would definitely eat there again!

Our party of six, including my 4-year-old, had an absolutely wonderful dining experience here. The service was very attentive and accommodating, including to my son's ridiculous request for a chair for the stuffed animal he got at La Ronde that day. It was BYOB but wine glasses and a champagne bucket with ice were brought out immediately for us. I ordered the poached salmon filet with shrimp and it was the best salmon I've ever had - it was cooked perfectly with a flavorful white wine cream sauce. No one had any complaints about the appetizers and main dishes they ordered. Desserts were also flawless - the meringue was light and absolutely delectable. Highly recommended!

What a fabulous restaurant this was and even better dining experience. The service was on point and the food was fresh, tasty and well worth the visit. If you enjoy a nice intimate dinner with a loved one or friends then I highly recommend visiting P'tit Plateau. Update 2025 - Came back here to visit after seeing a change on their menu from prix fix to standard a la carte. The restaurant underwent new ownership but I'm happy to say the quality of food continues to excel, alongside the service. If I can make one recommendation, it's to attempt to change the menu either seasonally or yearly. It'll definitely keep me coming back.

Really cute and intimate resto with a nice vibe. We really enjoyed our dinner here! The waitress was super kind and the food tasted great! We ordered the escargot, the venison and the lamb shank. I found the red wine sauce however a bit too salty for my liking. The pieces we got also looked much smaller than what we saw in the other reviews. I really appreciated that every element of the dish including the vegetables were well prepared and cooked. I can tell that the chefs take pride in their food. Overall great place for an intimate date night or a celebration.

Consistent food for the past 15 years. Visiting Montreal this past Spring and dined in some famous restaurants. Plateau was still up there as one of my top picks without breaking the bank. Excellent food and service in Saturday night with my wife.

Absolutely adorable, bring your own wine place in the Plateau. Quintessentially, Quebecois. The escargot and venison were absolutely to die for, and they bring this warm bread. Just perfection. I would recommend making a reservation. It's quite a small room, but it's easy to book online.

What an interesting experience. The service was a bit chaotic to be honest, but in the end the staff were a bit overwhelmed but still did their best to be friendly. The food was quite flavorful, and you can tell that there were quality ingredients used. Overall I would recommend trying this place out. Just be warm that they seemed a bit understand and everything runs with a bit of organized chaos.

Started with the Sweet potato coconut milk ginger carrot soup, flavors are much more subtle than you might expect, it's very good. Would definitely order the duck breast stuff with foie gras again. The Cassoulet was also quite tasty. The service was good and efficient and you can bring your own bottle of wine. Parking (if you need it) can be limited as most curbs want a permit.

What a delightful little byow. I was greeted with a smile and showed where to put my coat as soon as I got in and brought to my nice cozy table that was tucked away in the back. We started off the night with a bottle of Moët which was delicious and of course we were brought a bucket of ice to keep it nice and chilled. It was pretty quiet but not to quiet that you could hear a pin drop just enough quietness to have a romantic dinner and a great conversation. We started off with the foie gras delicious and a big portion, only thing that was missing was fleur de sel but as soon as I asked our waiter brought it right away. Then came the escargots which were served in a creamy sauce with mushrooms. Very good but I found that they added a lot more mushrooms then escargots just to balance the dish out, still was very creamy and good. We ended our appetizers with the salmon tartar which we requested first but got last wasn't a biggy but usually you do the raw plates first. Wasn't a huge fan on the salmon only because it wasn't anything special that would wow someone and make them Order it again. I give credit where credit is due and the appetizers were very nice so 3/5 for appetizers. The mains that we got were the duck that was stuffed with foie gras and duck confit served with mixed veggies quinoa and Mashed potatoes. This plate was tricky and was not prepared properly. The skin on the duck should of been removed because it was way to chewy and not seared at all. I removed the skin and the duck was a lot better. For the stuffing part I would say there's little to know foie gras it's mostly duck confit. The mixed veggies with the tomatoes sauce reminded me of the veggies you would get on the airplane that comes mixed in with the chicken or pasta option. ( not a fan ) The rest of the sides were fantastic. The lamb with almond in a fantastic sauce was 5/5! The sides were great the sauce was amazing. I was stealing bites all night, not to mention how tender the meat was. It was a great dish and they made it with love. I would come back just for this plate alone. The creme Brûlée was excellent perfectly crunchy on top and thick and creamy in the middle. Fantastic. All and all it was a great night the ambiance, the staff and the food was great.

Just perfect date night meal. All delivery but felt like a perfect French bistro outting. All the dishes were good even on delivery. We took care of the presentation. No crackers or bread with the rillette or tartare....weird, but otherwise great.

I was looking for a place that served cassoulet, the bean and duck "stew" from southwest France; so where better than a restaurant that specializes in the food from Sud Ouest France? FYI, that area is well known for duck. And, my wife loves duck, so off we went. We picked up a nice bottle of red wine (from the Cahors wine region in southwest of France) then found the place, on a corner in a quiet neighborhood. Very cute outside and in. We were seated by the window... My wife ordered the duck breast stuffed with foie gras, and I the cassoulet. For accompaniments she ordered a salad and I opted for the "celery root" (celeriac) soup. She also ordered an appetizer, the escargot in a cream sauce. (I wouldn't order that. I've already done the snails thing before, and am not a big fan -- just can't get over that it's snails...). First came some bread and the appetizer. The bread is to die for. As good as any I've had in France; crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, and just slightly chewy. Kept spread with butter for every bite, it is a wonderful experience, and as much a part of the meal as the soup or salad. Now, in spite of all that I previously said about snails, yada yada yada, that escargot is worth getting if only for the sauce! Seriously divine. Thick and creamy, with mushrooms, and an incredible flavor. I dipped my bread in it so much I ran out of bread. I think you could put anything in that sauce and it would taste incredible, so if you want to try escargot, here's the place to do it!! :) After finishing every bit of that, the next course came... my wife's salad was dressed perfectly with a delicious light vinaigrette. Cool, crisp and varied in composition. Five stars. My celeriac soup was very nice; it only needed a little salt. French Canada is the only place I've ever seen celeriac soup on the menu, and it's fairly common there. It's a creamy, puréed type of soup, and the flavor is not really too celery-like -- it's just a pleasant, subtlety flavored soup. If you're looking for a new and unique dish, try it. The main dishes: From the menu I had read online, the cassoulet appeared to be authentic, containing pork sausages and chunks of pork (like pork shoulder) in addition to the duck. It did not disappoint. Lots of beans in it as it should be, because the beans actually carry the flavor -- don't think of them as filler; if anything they are the star, and they make the meat stand out in contrast. I've had cassoulet where the chef thought that it had to be almost all meat, and it was terrible. My wife's duck was superb as well. Perfectly done. Richly flavored. The "base" for the dish was an assortment of things: asparagus spears, chopped sautéed veggies, a puréed root vegetable (likely rutabaga), plus a perfect mixture of quinoa and some delicious mystery ingredient. All of these were very nice. My only disappointment is that I probably won't be able to recreate that quinoa side dish at home! Somehow we were convinced to get a dessert too (the chocolate mousse), and although we had intended to take most of it home, it all got eaten on premises. I'm not mad about that, just still full from it... This place is highly recommended, especially if you like the food of the "Sud Ouest".

You may have to book in advance if you want to try this sweet little restaurant. The place is amazing, the service is friendly and the food is exquisite. Just the right amount of sauce, seasoning and that perfect combination of everything makes it almost a culinary adventure. It's a BYOB restaurant and has a solid reputation with locals and tourists, their menu is small, but every dish is perfectly prepared and served with a smile, why would you need more? If there is a list of restaurants to visit here in Montreal, I would definitely put it on top 10 list.

When you see nothing but five star reviews - you better believe this place is worth checking out. Quiet, intimate, and a place where we were welcomed as if we were family. Our waiter was so friendly, charming, and attentive. Definitely memorable service as we were provided with excellent recommendations. This is a Bring Your Own Wine restaurant so make sure to take advantage of that while enjoying the phenomenal food. The food was reasonably priced and you get more than a meal for your money. Just the thought of the lamb shank is enough to get me to book a flight back. While the food is great and filling, save some room for dessert. The crème brulee and chocolate mousse were amazing!

I found this gem after I missed my reservation at au pied de cochon and it was one of the highlights of my trip to Montreal. Having been to both au pied de cochon and Joe beef (both reputable Montreal restaurants), I can say Le P'tit Plateau was definitely my most memorable meal in Montreal. Everything, from food to service, was amazing.

Small, BYOW bistro with incredibly delicious food. I don't claim to have the most refined palate, but all the details were exquisite from the house smoked salmon, the delightfully subtle sweet potato soup, and the duck with foie gras. Topped it off with a rich chocolate mousse that was just the right size to share. This place is a gem.

Our first time to this restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised! First of, can i just say that our waiter, Royd (i hope that i got it right) was one of the best waiter that i've encountered so far in my life! Polite, courteous, professional and all-around nice! Even if the food was bad, i would forget all about it just because he is simply the best! But... The food was excellent! Everything that we ordered was executed perfectly! The menu is very small so choices are limited. No problem when it's done right. All main comes with choice of salad or soup, tea or coffee. Appetizers and desserts are "à la carte". My hubby and i shared a salmon tartar that was so fresh and delicate! Very good! The table next to us had the escargots. We're going for that next time :) i got the lamb shank. Ohhh! Melts-in-your-mouth-deliciousness! Hubby ordered the the venison (deer) with red wine reduction and foie gras (en torchon). Cooked medium rare and the portion of foie gras was so, so, so generous! The only thing that he would of liked was for the foie gras to be more tempered and not "out of the fridge to the plate" king of thing. He tried to see if they could torch it a bit knowing very well that the foie gras would melt like butter but the waiter (not ours. An older man) "kindly" refused. Heck... The food was so good that we let that slip by :/ Both our main had the same sides: gratin dauphinois (superb!), celeriac purée with a piece of prune, baby green beans and summer squash. The meal summed up to a bit under 120$ taxes and tips included for the both of us. Not bad at all for a byob restaurant and not bad at all for the quality of the food and especially for the service we got from out fabulous waiter! Will definitely come back. Make sure to make reservations!!!

Updated review as they seem to have changed owners and made some budget cuts. The service was still on par but the quality of the plates was noticeably diminished. My old favorite lamb shank encrusted with almonds only had a few specks of almonds on it. The cut of venison was not as tender as before. Maybe it was an off night? To be continued...

This was my second time going to "Le P'tit Plateau" and the first was over 2 years ago. I always hesitated since my first experience was so great, I didn't want to taint that memory I had. I don't regret my decision, it was as great as I remembered! I ordered a salmon tartar to start the night, followed by a leek (poireau) potage and a lamb shank (souris d'agneau) as a main course. Everything was absolutely delicious. The lamb was perfectly serve and all the meat came right off the bone. All this combined with the fact that you can BYOB/W makes for a great overall experience. The restaurant itself has a very cozy atmosphere. It's very important that you reserve in advance, since it can only hold about 30 people. Despite the price range, you never feel like you're in a snooty/snobby place. The waiting staff is amazing and make you feel welcome at all time. 5/5, Will come back! (In less than 2 years I hope)

This hidden gem blew us away from start to finish. They offer a simple menu featuring 7 Table D'Hote options. The starter soup is AMAZING! Skip the salad, you must try this soup!!!! We ordered the escagots in cream (sublime), followed by Duck Confit and Lamb Shank. For the grand finale, we had the Floating Island with vanilla and caramel -- the perfect end for an equally perfect meal. We found a new favorite spot in Montreal. Love, love, love this place!

I came here on a friend's recommendation. Know that they do have vegetarian/vegan options in addition to what's usually on the menu (yay). Service was great and the food was served hot, which I appreciated. We thought they were a little light on the salt/seasonings but would love to check this place out again in the winter.

Not my first (and certainly not my last) BYOB experience, Montreal's Le P'tit Plateau offers a casual fine dining experience, scandalously decadent dishes, and no corkage fee. You really can't go wrong. At a first glance, the menu looks ridiculously expensive. $36 for Lamb Confit? Preposterous! What you quickly realize, though, is that you're paying for quality, for excellent service, for the fact that the restaurant doesn't serve drinks, and for a starter soup or salad and a meal-finishing coffee. So, even with dessert, your entire 3 course meal comes to just under $50 per person. Even with your pre-bought bottle of wine (if you're like me, it'll be around $15), that's pretty good for this level of quality. You're probably wondering just what that $50 will get you. Well, amongst the six of us, we tried three items from the dinner menu, all of which were outstanding examples of perfectly cooked French cuisine. The medallion of venison was cooked to medium and served with a semi-sweet barbecue sauce, crispy fried shallots, foie gras (to die for), scalloped potatoes and puréed turnip. This was, in fact, my first taste of foie gras and (despite the ethical implications, animal rights, and images of force-feeding flitting through my mind), I loved it. I know I shouldn't, but there's a reason why people are fighting so hard for the right to continue producing fatty duck/goose liver. The lamb confit literally slid off the bone, exuding a tenderness that only comes from hours and hours of slow cookery. It was served with spices, almonds, zucchini, and lima beans. The duck confit was juicy and flavourful, with a side of arugula, dried magret, a lone runner bean, and gizzards (which my friends tentatively nibbled on - I wasn't so adventurous). For dessert, our table abounded with crème brûlées, fruit sorbets, and chocolate mousse cakes. After three courses and 5 bottles of wine (we couldn't quite make it to our 6th within the two hour time frame), I'd say that we were all pretty much sated. Glutted, even. It was great. Le P'tit Plateau is well worth a visit, whether you live in Montreal or plan on being a Québécois tourist at some point in the near future.

First, I will say that the food here was very decadent. I enjoyed the food very much, although I found it to be a little too rich. I had the lamb, with a cream of cauliflower soup to start, and shared the smoked salmon; maybe it was my choices that were on the rich side, but either way, the food was good. I was somewhat disappointed in my dining experience because even though the decor is quite pleasant, one of the servers continually bumped into my chair, and even elbowed me in the head at one point. The tables are far too close together and the restaurant is too crowded for such a small space. I would not have minded so much if the waiter so much as acknowledged that he continually bumped me (never mind an apology?). Despite the food being tasty, I will not go back to Le P'tit Plateau.

We were in Montreal for a week, eating in a different restaurant every night, and this was by far the best meal we had. The space is small, but very comfortable and pleasant to be in, the service is excellent, and the food was imaginative, well executed, and delicious. On the night we went, there was only one waiter to attend to 10 or so tables; he had no help seating, clearing, or bringing out food. But he was always there when we wanted him, and never bothered us when we didn't. He did appear to be out of breath a few times, but that wasn't his fault. The menu is brief, but we still had to think hard when choosing, since everything on it was tempting. We were both satisfied with our choices. My duck was perfectly cooked, and expertly presented; the sides were delightful. My wife's lamb was the same for her (I had some, but preferred the duck; she had some of mine, and preferred hers. Perfect). What we saved by bringing our own bottle of wine, we tipped the waiter. It was worth it. If you want an excellent meal in an understated but congenial atmosphere, I cannot recommend this place highly enough. If you want Disney food in a cramped, overstated room full of ersatz ambiance, stay away, and let the rest of us enjoy it.

This is for sure the best restaurant I've ever been to in Montreal. I've been twice, once with my boyfriends family and once for my birthday. It is on the pricey side (appetizers $9-$12, main courses $25-$34), but you really need to get the escargot appetizer.... unlike any I've had before, but sooo good. I think I had the venison filet both times, and it melts in your mouth. I also loved the atmosphere. It's super small and not really fancy, but has a nice intimate feel. The kitchen is open and the host/waiter makes you feel welcome with out being overbearing. Make it a point to eat here, you won't be disappointed, the food is incredible. Just make sure to make reservations. They have two seatings, I think one around 5:30 and one around 8:30..I'd try for the second, but just because I wouldn't want to feel rushed.

One word comes to mind - WOW. Food and service were spectacular. My fiancé and I have traveled all over the world and seldom have had a meal as exemplary as this one. I ordered the venison and he ordered the lamb shank. Both were perfectly cooked. We got a duck appetizer which was perfectly seasoned. It's also BYO which we love since we're "wine snobs". If I ever return to Montreal I will most definitely return to this restaurant, regardless of location or decor.

Came here with my bachelor party crew and really enjoyed it. Being that it was BYOB we were able to get some great French cuisine at a reasonable price with alcohol. It is a smaller place, seems perfect for a date night. Food was great, entrees came with a soup or salad, and prices were reasonable. I would definitely recommend!

Gautam P.

Yelp
This place came highly recommended by a friend and we decided to give it a try. It is small, cozy and charming - so definitely call ahead as it can get crowded even on a weekday. The reason why this place is so popular is because the food is simply delicious. We had a three course meal and every dish was exquisite. A little pricey but worth every penny. Definitely one of the best meals we had in Montreal!

Very cozy restaurant. Accommodated last minute reservations. BYOW (bring your own wine) as they don't carry their own. I had the lamb which I really enjoyed but my wife's venison was out of this world good. Perfectly cooked, and just "gamey" enough to make it distinct from a typical beef steak.

I had the greatest meal here. The food is inventive and the service is warm and friendly. They serve simple, elegant French food here and the presentation is very nice. This restaurant doesn't serve alcohol but has a BYOB policy... sweet! Definitely worth a trip.... Oh, and the desserts are terrific.

My wife and I had dinner here last weekend and it was by far and away one of the best meals that we have ever had. We started with the foie gras and then had the salmon and cassoulet for dinner. Each dish was excellent. Our table had a view of the kitchen and we had a bird's eye view of the chef pan frying the duck for the cassoulet! Truly tremendous! The service was fantastic and the setting was very intimate. The BYO wine policy helps to keep the cost reasonable. We can't say enough about this restaurant, we would highly recommend it to anyone!

Even though we had SO many great meals on this trip and this one's been totally overshadowed by others, I have to be fair and give it four stars as any other time in any other place, it would've been a pretty memorable meal. BYOB, of course we were running late so we went to the restaurant first, asked them about the closest liquor store (SAQ on the corner of Duluth & St. Denis) then RAN back to the restaurant. It's been a few weeks so my memory's hazy (and they don't seem to have a website to refresh my memory) but I believe we had foie gras torchon and escargot for appetizers then duck breast and lamb leg confit for entree. The escargot appetizer was quite memorable, unlike any other preparations I've had, with creamy sauce and fresh vegetables or herbs. Great mix of texture and flavor. Highlight of the meal. The foie gras torchon was also excellent. The entrees were also very good, but perhaps not as memorable as the appetizers as I can't seem to recall much about them other than the fact that they were delicious! I had floating islands as dessert (good, but I prefer my meringue crunchy on the outside) and my husband had something that I have no recollection of other than the fact that it tasted very strongly of alcohol to me -- but then I don't drink at all and can taste alcohol in the most miniscule amount. He loved it and proclaimed it a very "adult" dessert. Overall a great meal, not sure if it's a destination-dining sort of place, but most definitely a solid neighborhood spot. I know I would totally frequent it if I lived in Montreal! Also a very nice waiter, we even shared our wine -- which he happily drank!
