“Best restaurant I've ever been to in Canada. They seem like they would be deeply offended if you didn't have an amazing experience. That's a list art in hospitality.”

C'était tout simplement parfait. Félicitations à tous les membres du personnel présent hier soir (8 oct). Vous avez élevé notre soirée. Merci pour l'accueil chaleureux.”

“Merveilleuse soirée hier avec un service aux petits oignons, une ambiance à la fois cozy et festive avec un choix intéressant en matière de vins. Un menu dégustation généreux pour seulement 75 $, c’est très très raisonnable. Coup de cœur pour le tartare! J’y retournerai sans hésiter.”

“The slice of kouign amann cake I ordered was incredible. So buttery! The gentleman who served me was lovely. The coffee was delicious. The next time I am in Montréal, I will definitely call ahead and order a full cake!”

“The Legendary Joe Beef. We had the Foie Gras double down, the rabbit, and the veal. This is basically the Rolls Royce of restaurants, you are paying for the name. Food was unlike anything I've ever had and was extremely flavourful, but Canadian shrinkflation means you pay a lot for a little, so I left hungry. Great experience though between the ambience and the staff, it was unforgettable.”

“The food of this place and the customer service are really disgusting🤮🤮🤮🤮”

“Excellent food and very attentive service! I was also impressed by our waitress' talent at recommending drinks.”

“I had really high expectations for Restaurant Monarque and was hoping it would completely blow me away. While the food was delicious, the overall experience fell just slightly short of what I would expect from a restaurant of this caliber. Service was the main area that didn’t quite meet expectations. After being seated, we waited about 10 minutes before receiving menus and had to ask for them. Throughout the meal, interactions felt a bit rushed - several staff members who stopped by the table were somewhat brief, and on a few occasions, items like bread or water were dropped off while we tried to ask questions, but the busser had already walked away. That said, the restaurant was quite busy during lunch, so it’s possible the pace and attentiveness were impacted by that. As for the food, we ordered the albacore tuna appetizer along with the strip loin, butcher’s cut, and duck for our mains. Everything was well-prepared, though the duck portion was noticeably small. Desserts were a highlight - especially the pavlova with maracuya, which was excellent. Our server Laura was professional, though not very engaging until the very end of the meal when we were settling the bill. I would still return, as the food is strong, but I have to say that Bar George left a more lasting impression on us in terms of both food and service.”

“Le service à l'accueil et aux tables est incroyable. Les plats sont beaux à l'oeil et savoureux ! C'est une belle découverte pour moi. Je recommande à 100% !”

“Un service amical et attentionné, des plats super créatifs mettant en vedette des ingrédients locaux, un apportez votre vin à prix plus que raisonnable pour la qualité et l’expérience. Je recommande sans réserve.”

“Very good. One of my favourite restaurants I’ve been to in the city. Also in a great location with other fun restos and bars around. Service was amazing from the start, explaining the menu throughly for us “first timers”. Fun plates to share, don’t disregard the veggies as they are some of the best parts of the meal. The chilie cabbage was probably one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. (Choi chili crisp). Thanks for the great service, food and ambience, will be back asap.”

“Un peu onéreux, mais c'est un must aller manger dans cet endroit charmant où le service et la nourriture est à la hauteur de nos attentes. Bravo!!!”

“Fabulous inventive food and a special light touch with seafood . Expensive but worth it . The Picine cocktail is the best.”

“Everything was incredible - in particular the lamb skewers, duck, and snow crab pasta. Mauro was an incredible server. Our favorite dinner over a few nights in Montreal.”

“✨ Samedi soir inoubliable ✨ Après un concert intimiste Candlelight au 9e, j’ai poursuivi la soirée au réputé Café Ferreira, une véritable institution portugaise au cœur de Montréal. Dès l’entrée, les effluves envoûtants de la cuisine m’ont séduite. Service impeccable, rapidité et fraîcheur irréprochable. 🌊 En entrée, des huîtres sur glace d’une fraîcheur exquise, relevées d’une mignonnette au vinaigre vieilli : un pur délice marin. 🍲 En plat principal, la bouillabaisse aux poissons et fruits de mer — généreuse, riche en saveurs, et tout simplement succulente. J’ai savouré chaque bouchée avec gratitude. 🍮 Et pour clore cette expérience : le pastel de nata maison accompagné de glace… une douceur portugaise qui a parfaitement scellé cette soirée magique. Une expérience culinaire raffinée, où chaque détail était pensé pour sublimer le moment. 🌹”
