Best French Canadian Restaurants in Old Montreal

Our waiter, Patrice was amazing!! The ambience in the restaurant was wonderful with all of the old posters of old Parisian publications and productions in theater and art. The food was wonderful. Try the braised lamb poutine! Lamb chops were exquisite.

Mushroom toast appetizer was excellent. Pork Milanese (essentially a schnitzel) portion was very large. Could not finish. All sauces were very rich and delicious. Beer selection was limited and could use some variety (no amber or brown ales). Cider is very dry. Mixed drinks were nice. Nice atmosphere, feels like Yukon lodge in winter.

One of the most beautiful restaurants I’ve every been in Old world, mastercraft paneling adorns the main area. High ceilings and unique wallpaper. The hamachi crisp in coconut milk was devine. Not cheap but worth every penny. Service was friendly and not stuffy and was professional. A must see restaurant. I made the reservation with Open Door. Strangely I got an email that said the restaurant canceled my reservation. So when we got there that’s is what we were told. However being a Monday night we were seated.

This restaurant came recommended from another restaurant owner and it didn't disappoint. The oysters were delicious, as was really everything we had. The green salad was crisp and perfectly dressed (not too much dressing), tuna crudo, beef carpaccio and a pike special were excellent. The staff was very friendly and made you feel welcome.

Excellent service and food. We were a large group and felt everything went very smooth and quickly.
