Very average food for the price. Impossible to accommodate a person with gluten intolerance. No accommodation possible, e.g.: replace the bread with potatoes. No atmosphere since the music group is in another room. Friendly servers. I won't go back there are other much better Brunch restaurants in Montreal. We had a reservation at 10:30 a.m. and at 10:24 a.m. the door was locked. The door says it opens at 11:30 a.m.Dietary restrictions: No accommodation possible from this restaurant. I made suggestions and no openness to replace, for example, bread with fries. First time I've experienced this type of situation.

Fantastic.One of 'many' great places to eat in Old Montreal. Having said that, Modavie stood out as being one of the best. Service was excellent, the decor & live music was great as well.The food......perfection!French Onion soup & the Duck Confit were both the best we've had yet. The 'huge' bowl of local muscles was also the best.Highly recommended!!! ?

I loved everything about this place! Initially due to the road construction we didn't find the entrance but we are grateful we finally found it.We had the pesto gnocchi and mushroom risotto. Both were top notch. We had the lamb embellishment and will recommend it. I am thankful to our server for suggesting it.All the cocktails are yummy. We tried the mirage and cinnamon one.The music and ambience was top notch. Made a Thursday night feel like a weekend.Will be back for the creme brulee!

Me and my husband decided to have dinner here and they didn't disappoint us! The service was impeccable! Our server's name is Radouan. The food is so délicieuse! It is my birthday and I was happy that we found this restaurant close to our hotel. It is by the old montreal. We will definitely come back whenever we have a chance to visit montreal again!

Everything is good. Nice food, good music.The neighborhood is a bit "unfriendly" during evening. We encountered several homeless on our way..

My friend and I decided to have dinner at this place due to the high ratings on Google. Now, after analyzing all the reviews, I realized they must be fake, since some of the images are repetitive. Everyone was raving about the food! First, the good things - the service was indeed excellent; our server was attentive and timely, and the hostess was accommodating, seating us upstairs so we could be a part of a jazz performance. We sat down and ordered our drinks, which were great! Then, we ordered bone marrow, foie gras, and scallops as appetizers. All of them were warm and tasted mediocre. Particularly, the foie gras came on top of a piece of bread, which was soaking through in fat. I understand that foie gras is very fatty, yet I was expecting the bread to provide a balancing bite, but it was so overpowering, I could not eat it. For the main course, we ordered lamb, which was highly recommended by other diners on Google (turns out they were fake reviews), and fries. The fries were soggy, and the lamb dish came out cold with all the soggy, sad-looking vegetables. I just could not eat it and asked our server to reheat it, which he did and I ate it afterwards. Initially, we wanted to have dessert, but after such a terrible food experience, we couldn’t wait to go somewhere else instead! I don’t know, maybe they were busy, and we had bad luck, yet the entire restaurant wasn’t full. We won’t be returning!

Amazing dinner. Went here spontaneously on a Saturday at 7:30pm without a reservation with my boyfriend. Was sat immediately at the bar as all tables were reserved (totally get it, love sitting at the bar). The bartender was attentive and very talented as the cocktails we got were both superb. We ordered the snails as an app, I got the duck confit, and he got the lamb chops. We were given extra bread for the snail butter without asking. Waters always refilled. Meats cooked perfect. Live music was to die for. Got double espressos, crème brûlée, and profiteroles for dessert which were equally delicious. If I lived here I think I’d go every week.
Good food and good service. I had the French onion soup and lamb burger and my wife had the tomato soup. The soups were excellent!

Quintessential French bistro. Great for lunch. The escargot was the best I’ve ever had and the beef tartar was amazing. Service was good. Menu online says dessert is included in the lunch special but was not when at the restaurant which was a little disappointing. Would definitely recommend!
