Bar St. Denis presents a remarkable tasting menu experience. Each dish is carefully prepared, highlighting vibrant flavors and seasonal ingredients. The attentive service and the effortlessly elegant atmosphere contribute to a refined yet comfortable dining environment. This restaurant is highly recommended for a sophisticated dining experience in Montreal. The stuffed morel mushrooms were truly exceptional, offering a delightful explosion of well-balanced flavors upon the first bite. While the lamb was unfortunately overcooked and somewhat chewy, the remaining aspects of the meal were outstanding. The staff demonstrated excellent knowledge of the menu, and we received commendable service. Our compliments to the chef.

Made a reservation for two and had an incredible experience. The service was amazing—everyone was attentive, kind, and worked together seamlessly. True “teamwork makes the dream work” vibes, and I loved it.
The food was absolutely delicious. We tried the cucumber, zucchini, razor clams, smoked sturgeon, pork, and sausage. For the cucumber and zucchini, I’d personally recommend choosing one or the other since the flavors were quite similar. The smoked sturgeon was a standout—never had it before, and it surprisingly tasted like ham.
Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

We loved our experience here.
Food was delicious. We did a tasting menu and each course was delicious. The staff was kind and attentive. We will be going back and I highly recommend others try this place.

Made a reservation on open table and showed up a bit early. They had a few empty tables but refused to seat us “because they’re expecting a reservation in 50 mins” although we said we wanted some apps and drinks only. We show up again at the time of our reservation and were made to wait for over 15 mins to get a table without any apology! Great way to do business

The food was good (solid falafel, perfectly cooked duck) but the price points were really off for some dishes (40 dollars for cabbage... throwing in chanterelles doesn't justify that price). Service at the table was fine, but the front of house staff was extremely odd. We showed up for a reservation around 9pm and the table wasn't ready for ~30 minutes. The response? "Yeah this is a good lesson, don't pay for the bill and take too long to leave the table as a customer". Yikes.

This place is spectacular. The menu varies when you go, but the food is outstanding. A lot of seafood, so if you're not a seafood person, this place might not be for you. I missed pictures of the last two dishes, which were a chicken dish that tasted like a Thanksgiving turkey and a phenomenal duck dish.
The service is phenomenal. All servers are articulate and always smiling. They were accommodating to some people's needs. No complaints.
The atmosphere is very quaint. This place is a small hole in the wall that opens a world of wonders and excitement. My only complaint is not knowing which bathroom to go in. The pictures on the doors don't indicate which one will be right for you.
I was not disappointed with the portion sizes, flavors, or dishes. I'm looking forward to going back and doing it all again.

Great little restaurant that serves small shareable plates. We had the discovery menu. The food, service and atmosphere were good. Wine selection is ok. A bit pricey but we had a good time.

Not sure what the hype is about this place. The menu was very interesting but the food lacked flavor. Ideally the food should make you want more, but I felt very indifferent of my meal.

We followed the suggestions of our waitress Laurence and we were impressed! There were 4 of us and we shared the cardel crudo, scallops, clams, black pudding, piglet and chicken ballotine, the spinach salad without forgetting the cheesecake. Good choices of wines and cocktails
Stale.
2nd time here and still just as good.
Loved every dish......
Especially.the razor clams.
