   Located in the Hotel Nelligan in the heart of Old Montreal, on a corner of Rue Saint Paul. Fabulous food in an elegant setting.

   Il n’y a plus l’emphase sur les vins natures qui les caractérisait à l’ouverture . Semble que les touristes n’en veulent pas, à ce qu’on m’a expliqué . D’ailleurs tout les employés nous abordent en anglais, ils assument que nous sommes touristes. C’est un resto d’hôtel typique…sans charme, sans caractère. Et c’est cher pour rien.

   The food was just okay and service was horrible. We had to ask for more water and they pretty much forgot about us so it took 30 minutes just to order. There are much better places to eat in Old Montreal.

    Went to celebrate our 75th birthdays after being friends for 55 years, thought we hit on something special when they seated us at a picture bay window table. Boy were we wrong. The gentleman waiter was very attentive. We had Calamari and eggplant for appetizers. No off-the-charts, but respectable, especially the eggplant. The main courses were bolognese for the 2 ladies, which was way too much as separate dishes, maybe should have alerted us to how large the portions were. Jimmy had the chicken thighs which came out overdone and very rubbery. Could not eat most of the dish. And if those were Yukon potatoes, the chef needs a lesson, as they were more like a glop of panko flakes. The mussels that I had, didn't seem all that fresh, and was expecting the frites to come out maybe not hot, but definitely not lukewarm. We had a great time because of our friendship, but we could have done without this meal! Thankfully, the Creme Brulee and fruit tart were delicious. Would I give it another try? Maybe if I lived here, but for a 4-day visit, I will try my luck somewhere else.

    Food was really good and reasonably priced, the restaurant is beautifully set in an old building, but the service could use a major improvement. We had to call over the waitress many times for things that should be done automatically. She didn't bring milk for our coffee, we had to ask her to refill our water and then again for her to refill our coffee, we had to find her to tell her that we were done and wanted the bill, even though there was only one other table that she was serving. Also, she didn't understand anything that we asked her about the menu.

    The food selection for the set meal for the night choice was extremely not gastronomic or tasty and I'm used to $$$$ restaurants but this I was surprised and disappointed because the atmosphere the employees and so on it's amazing but going in a restaurant it's mostly because of the food and that was a big disappointment the first course and the main dish for me and my friend her meal was different then mine and still not good 😐.

    Food quality was good, but expectations based on location, fame of the restaurant and this type of event were higher. The server was not good. Super long (literally like 15min for ketchup) for everything even when there were only 4 other people on our side of the restaurant. Hopefully it was just a bad day. I put no in recommend it to a friend because I’m debating.

    J’ai bien aimé la dernière que j’y suis allée mais la fin de semaine dernière nous avons été déçus. Le service était très très long… et la qualité servie était décevante. J’ai dû mentionner à la serveuse que je n’étais pas satisfaite c’était trop cuit, froid et peu, mais j’ai eu un très bon service. Ce n’était pas de sa faute je crois. Elle m’a rapporté un autre plat. Le service était très long surtout avec un enfant.. même pour un dessert.

    We chose from the “ Happening Montreal “ menu and were delighted with our choices. The cheese and pomegranate appetizer was divine and our friend enjoyed her beef tartar. We all chose the mussels in garlic broth for our main dish and although the sauce was tasty it was not the steaming bowl of our expectations. Dessert was excellent - both the pear mousse and the chocolate cake were garnished with lovely fresh berries and assorted nuts. Our before dinner cocktails and after dinner coffees/aperitifs were extra, but all excellent, and quite unique in combinations. I particularly enjoyed the spicy tequila with the jalapeño pepper. Service was friendly, attentive and very accommodating. An excellent evening.

    Lovely space and a good breakfast menu. It was a limited menu before 11am, which we weren’t aware of prior to arriving, but the limited menu had everything we needed and it was likely the reason the restaurant was much less crowded than other spots in the area. Worthwhile tradeoff to me.
