Restaurant Les Mômes

The MICHELIN Guide to Québec

"I found a charming spot that captures the essence of Parisian café culture, offering a warm and evocative dining experience." - The MICHELIN Guide

"This neighborhood bistro run by a young French chef has a classic decor that is given a lift by the light fittings, orange banquettes and a 1980s playlist. From the large blackboard on the wall, you get a sense of the chef's respect for the seasons, even as he seeks to surprise his guests. The Arctic char crudo is boosted by an invigorating and spicy leche de tigre; the cod meunière is accompanied by a tasty prawn cream. Polenta gnocchi with mushrooms fromQuébecare the chef's specialty. Customers bring their own wine bottles. The restaurant is open every evening, seven days a week." - Michelin Inspector

The Best New Restaurants in Montreal, January 2023 | Eater Montreal

"Say hello to Villeray’s newest culinary destination, Les Mômes. Chef Yoann Van Den Berg brings expertise from big-name fine dining restaurants like Europea and Pastel, but this endeavour conjures more of a dinner party vibe. It’s a BYOB, with a small, ever-changing menu driven by French influences, local ingredients, and a sustainability mindset. Cromesqui (fritters), foie gras with prunes and ginger, PEI beef with celeriac, and polenta-based gnocchi with eggplant and burrata are examples of what’s been served." - Valerie Silva
