   We loved Modavie. Classic French. The escargot is to die for. Get the plain one not the cheese. And the steak tartare is out of this world. The lamb is definitely the specialty of the house and worth every penny. You could make a dinner out of the appetizers easily. Don’t miss a very good crème brûlée.

   We had the best dining experience here! Food and waitstaff were top-notch. We were not rushed through our meal. Live jazz music was a nice addition.

   Wonderful first meal in Montreal. The Beef Tartare and Duck Confit were delicious. Best Crème Brûlée I’ve ever had. Service is exceptional and the staff handle a large volume of diners fluidly.

   The food svcks here. The duck legs were not tender and too bland. The lamb chops had no taste at all. I suspect the chef is a child. Ill rate 0 star if I can

   The restaurant is very nice. The reception by the owner, we think, was exceptional. The food was very good, although the waitress got one of the orders wrong even after I had pointed to it on the menu. The music was very good and at a level that let you listen and still be able to talk with the other table guests. Very enjoyable brunch.

   L’endroit est très bruyant si vous êtes dans la même pièce que le band. Demandez dans votre réservation d’éviter ce secteur à moins d’aimer quand vous ne pouvez vous entendre parler. La nourriture était bonne, mais rien qui se démarque.

    Escargot was great. Salmon was a bit dry. Mushroom risotto was really good. The brazed lamb that I had w it was good but , by my taste, would have been better with some mint. Overall great dinner the band on Friday was really good. We went to the bar after dinner n the people were really friendly.

    Wonderful evening. Great atmosphere, excellent service and terrific food. We had the cheese and charcuterie board, mushroom risotto and braised lamb pappardelle with the profiteroles for dessert. Excellent wine list. There was a blues trio playing that were a great addition to the evening.

    We are out of towners and this restaurant was recommended by friends. We were upstairs where it was noisy so conversation was difficult. The snails au gratin appetizer was delicious but the meals were very mediocre. We each had something different: the duck was dry and tasteless and the steak was tough. The salmon and the mussels were acceptable. For the price of this evening out, we were disappointed in the quality and presentation of our dinners.

    Excellent dinner. We had a 6 pm reservation but before the hist would seat us he wanted to make sure we knew we had to leave before the next reservation at 8:15 - was awkward. Then he sat us right next to the band when there were many other tables open. However the music was smooth jazz- very nice. The server was very good and the food was delicious- charcuterie, mussels and lamb chops. Overall a nice dinner.

    We had a wonderful time and lovely dinner at Modavie! The Moules marinières were fresh and flavourful, the crème brûlée was heavenly, and the excellent jazz by Alex and Rivo provided a soothing atmosphere to enjoy our meal. Lorenzo and Christian were sweethearts and took good care of us. Will definitely come back.

    The vibe is superb, the singer was awesome singing the classic songs, and the service was great. Only downside is that the food was below par than others at similar price range. I’d recommend it if you r going for overall experience than food alone.

    Had a wonderful dinner at Modavie in 2018 and again in 2023. Would highly recommend going in the evening to enjoy the live music as well as the fantastic dinner. Our server Christian offered amazing, friendly service as well. We had the chicken supreme with a green salad as well as the salmon, both with beautifully cooked seasonal vegetables, a mtlopolitan cocktail, and creme brulee (to die for). Don't miss out! Would happily return.

    I had the escargot, lamb chops, and crème brûlée. The escargot was very good but the lamb although well cooked and soft was a bit on the bland side as were the vegetables with it. The crème brûlée topping had been over torched is it was a layer of glass which means the sugar was overheated. It’s nice that there’s music every night but it’s very hard to hear it as people don’t seem to be there for the music and continue to talk as if nothing is happening. The staff were very attentive.

    We had a less than pleasant experience overall dining at Modavie. It is a very busy place with lots of tourists. The live music was lovely, but the volume was way too loud, we couldn’t even hear each other to have any conversation at the table without yelling. The service was not good, and the server who dropped off our bread and gave us water was miserable and rude. We waited more than half an hour to get a drink. We watched every table that got sat after us get drinks, food, and leave before we even got our food. The food was okay. Flavours of a couple items were good, but the quality of a lot of the ingredients are terrible. Everything is priced way too high for the quality this place is offering. Definitely won’t be going back.
    

    ModavieResponded 6 days agoThank you, Jerm, for taking time to share your experience with us. Please note that we love to accommodate our guests by seating them where they are comfortable, you can always request a table far from the musician during your reservation! However, your comments concerning the service you received is quite concerning to us since we are well known for our attentive service team.

    The food was delicious, and our server was very kind. My only complaint was that I emailed the restaurant in advance asking if they had vegan dinner options for my friend and received a response that they did. Unfortunately, we learned that was not the case. Luckily my friend had a large lunch and wasn't hungry. It seems there was a disconnect in communication. Overall, my party enjoyed the experience!
