Un très bon bistro caché sur la rue hotel-de-ville ! De la bouffe française excellente De plus, le restaurant est un apporté votre vin ! Le menu 5 service coute environ 52 $, mais le potage et le trou-normand sont très très bons ! La serveuse que nous avons eue était parfaite aussi ! Franchement j’ai bien aimé !

Let’s start with the good points. This is an adorable spot, very cosy and the service was incredible. In fact they tried to address everything that went wrong with the food but in a town like Montréal I’m not sure that getting subpar food can be covered up by good service. The prices are very good and you can bring your own wine which is always nice for the budget conscious option. That being said the food was not exactly the best. We had the 5 course meal and some of it was good but not fantastic. The soup was super heated and it made it difficult to enjoy. It was also seriously lacking in seasoning. I never feel the need to add salt but i had to here. The appetizers were just ok, again lacking in seasoning. The main meal was pretty solid. The Duck leg confit was very very good as were the Ris de Veau. The sides on the main were boring and plain however. Some sort of undercooked potato dish that seem undercooked and underseasoned. The desserts were just plain awful. We actually sent it back. The crème brule was so burnt it was black(not sure how that left the kitchen actually) and the sorbet was freezer burned and tasting like it. As I said they tried to address the issue by offering us more desserts(which we turned down, not exactly inspired by their food at that point) and reducing the price on our bill. Still not sure we’ll be back however.

True to their word, extremely pocket book friendly! However, keep in mind, to keep the food prices down, drink prices are rather high… stick to drinking water and you’ll have a tasty meal for almost nothing ;) nice and cosy atmospere with different table sizes to accomodate intimate to group sizes :)

Bön petit bistro ! Situé en pleine zone résidentielle du Plateau Mont-Royal, ce petit bistro classique ”apportez votre vin” est simple et la nourriture délicieuse et bien apprêtée. Il y a à peine de la place pour 30 personnes assises. On était un groupe de 4 personnes un mercredi soir et il n’y avait qu’un autre couple dans la salle. Assez tranquille quoi. Rien à redire sur la nourriture, mes convives ont bien aimés. Les champignons en entrée étaient succulents ainsi que le filet mignon. Je vous suggère le 5 services(potage /entrée /granité /plat principal /dessert) qui vous reviendra moins cher que de choisir à la carte. Bön service du serveur qui était sympa. Le chef est venu à la fin pour nous demander notre opinion sur la nourriture et le service. Déco très simple et normal d’un petit bistro de quartier. Total de l’addition avec taxes + pourboire inclus pour 4, 290 $. Au final, tout le monde a bien mangé et été satisfaits. Si vous recherchez un petit bistro ”apportez votre vin” discret situé ”hors rues principales”, vous avez trouvés.

J ai vraiment aime le service et la nourriture. Manger le canard et le filet de porc sauce au bluet. Le potage étais correct mais le désert tarte au fromage délicieuse. J ai pris un 5 service pour 42 très abordable et c est un apporter votre vin un plus.

Great ambience if you are looking for a cozy place tucked in a residential neighbourhood. The entrees are exotic and a little pricey but the corkage free BYOW makes up for it. I would have given it 5 stars but the veggies were soaked in too much oil. Wait staff are great! $ 200 for party of 4.

I’ve eaten my way through this entire city, from top to bottom, and think this place is probably the best French restaurant in the city, bar none. It’s really small but neat, clean, classy, and very intimate. White glove service where the waiters and staff treat you like ROYALTY, respectful of your choices and delicately making suggestions to improve your experience. No matter how ghetto the wine you bring is(BYOW) they always have something positive to say about it. The food is absolutely unbelievably amazing. I can’t even begin to describe it. I used to HATE French food — until I went to L’Entrepont and it turned me around completely. Anyways, enough rambling. The best, go check it out.

Found this place on the travelchannel website the first night we got to Montréal during a quick weekend trip. It isn’t cheap, but this splurge was a fabulous way to start our trip. Just a few blocks from the Mont-Royal metro station, it is actually a tiny place wedged in a residential neighborhood. There weren’t more than 10 tables, and the atmosphere was very homey and intimate. We decided to all do the 5-course option, which ranged from 48 – 55 bucks depending on which main course you ordered. The meal started with a cream of vegetable soup. Simple and boring you might think, but it was very yummy and made us all excited for what was to come. I then had the escargots as my appetizer, and it was absolutely heavenly. I am a big fan of escargots, and this dish reminded me why. The blue cheese sauce it was in was subtle but delicious, and I sopped up every last drop with my bread. Next came a palate cleanser of sorts — a scoop of green apple sorbet dropped in some brandy. Everyone in our group LOVED this — especially as the sorbet melted in the brandy. I had never had anything like this during a meal, so it was a really pleasant surprise. For my main dish, I had the roasted quail, which I found to be well-seasoned in a nice wine sauce. All the main entrees came with the same sides — a mix of seasonal vegetables. The other entrees ordered included the duck dish, the filet mignon, and even the kangaroo(I got a bite– it was surprisingly tender and tasted sorta like beef). Dessert was a trio of sorbets. Although not the highlight of the meal, it was a nice and light way to end the night. The service was great here, even though there seemed to be only one waiter running the place. Another great thing about this place? You can bring your own wine! No corkage fee, and they’ll even chill your white wine for you. Good thing we had stopped by the NH liquor store on our way there! Highly recommended, especially if you can’t get a reservation at the famed«au pied du cochon» or «l’express,»…
