We went to celebrate our marriage anniversary and it was the perfect choice. Starting with the service, the host told us a bit about the restaurant history (btw this place is an institution) he gave us amazing wines recommendations and he was very friendly and empathic all the time. The place is a restaurant inside a house, cozy and warm perfect to have a date. Food was incredible, they make an effort to buy local and high quality supplies which makes it more special. Everything was very tasty and delicious. Definitely I will come again.

Cute place and romantic atmosphere. Food selectively good. I had scallop and wagyu steak. Really liked rose wine - smoky and fruity at the same time. Scallop on the dry side and lots of sauce. wagyu steak -ok just ok. Had so many sides and are that over cooked. My red wine that supposed to go with wagyu was icy cold and not in the right class served. Why ? Not sure. Waiter completely was dismissive to me out the party of 4 people. Not what I have expected from a place with so many stars.

A Culinary Extravaganza in French Delights! Our recent dining experience at this exquisite French cuisine establishment left us utterly delighted and gratified. We embarked on a gastronomic journey like no other, indulging in the finest offerings of the menu. From the moment we stepped foot into the restaurant, we were enchanted by the elegant ambiance and warm hospitality. The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the prime rib, a succulent masterpiece that weighed a generous 32 ounces. Cooked to perfection, the meat was tender and juicy, melting in our mouths with every savory bite. The blend of herbs and spices infused in the prime rib added a remarkable depth of flavor that left us craving for more. To complement our meaty indulgence, we decided to savor a magnificent lobster dish, which turned out to be nothing short of culinary art. The lobster was flawlessly cooked, boasting sweet and delicate flesh that was simply divine. Each morsel evoked a sense of luxury that we relished with every passing second. Not only did the flavors tantalize our taste buds, but the presentation of the dishes was a feast for the eyes as well. The plating was immaculate, and every element on the plate was arranged with precision and creativity. We found ourselves marveling at the artistry that went into every dish, appreciating the attention to detail that elevated the entire dining experience. Accompanying our main courses were a delightful array of vegetables, which served as a refreshing and wholesome addition to our meal. Freshly harvested and expertly cooked, they complemented the main dishes harmoniously, enhancing the overall symphony of flavors on our palates. The attentive and knowledgeable staff ensured that our needs were promptly met, and they were always ready to provide insightful recommendations, enhancing our dining experience further. It's evident that the restaurant takes great pride in delivering impeccable service and leaving no stone unturned in making guests feel pampered and content. Our visit to this French cuisine haven was nothing short of extraordinary. The 32-ounce prime rib and the delectable lobster, coupled with the delightful vegetable medley, created a meal that we'll fondly remember for years to come. The exceptional presentation, warm hospitality, and divine flavors culminated in an evening that earned five stars without a doubt. We wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to all culinary enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable dining adventure. Bravo to the talented chefs and dedicated staff for a truly remarkable experience! We eagerly look forward to returning soon for another epicurean journey.

On Grand Prix weekend we looked outside Montreal to find a great restaurant and we were able to find a table through their app even within three hours of table time. The neighbourhood is picturesque and the house is tucked back from a pretty public square. Walking up we knew this was going to be a great experience and confirmed even more so as we walked in and greeted by the staff. The service was excellent and all the staff was very patient and kind to translate. Taking a picture with Google also quickly translated the menu. The service was timely and we never felt rushed. We choose the multi course menu with wine pairings. Expensive but worth the experience because we got to try four beautiful wines paired with all the courses. I lost count honestly but they were all made and presented to perfection. All the roast vegetables burst with flavour and the meats, shellfish, sauces and deserts were fabulous. If you want a culinary treat Le Mitoyen is a great choice!

Great food, great service and great night. The ambience is cozy and you really feel at home in this little house full of history. We had table near the fireplace and it definitely added to the experience. Everything was good, the fish cakes are a must try. They also have a stout beer ice cream. I mean what else do you want. PROS - The food ! - The desserts, especially the chocolate mousse and the chocolate squares; - The ambiance (including the fireplace); - The service and the staff. CONS - Not an impressive list of Whisky nor Cognac; - The tables in the smaller rooms feels impersonal.

Simply amazing. Situated in a lovely detached house in a quite neighborhood of Laval, Le Mitoyen serves unpretentious French classics with fresh and local ingredients. Every dish we ordered was excellent, but the foie gras, scallops and lambs were highlights of the nights. Service was very warm and attentive. Do allow time to dine here since everything was cooked fresh and it can get very busy.

Hidden germ in laval, you will be surprised by the excellent service & food quality. Its in the high end price but worthy to try. They use very fresh ingredients & the sauce for each dish comes from real fruits, so it tastes light & so much flavour. Fois gras is a must try on the menu, not over or under cook, perfect timing & the dish temperature is just perfectly control to bring out the best taste of it.

The restaurant is located in a beautiful old house with several dining rooms. We were seated in a cozy area with only four tables which made the experience even better. White table cloth, impeccable service, a menu that captures the chef s creativity and genius, this is an excellent fine French dining.Everyone will find something they like on the menu. Le Mitoyen offers a broad selection of fine wines to accompany each course. To conclude, it was a memorable dining experience and one where we will celebrate future special occasions. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Exquisite, very fine food. Adorable, ultra-professional server. Very warm, like a house, its fun! The menu at $68/person is exquisite and not that expensive when you think about it. The prices are higher on the wines, but they are private imports, and chosen with care, so... in the end, a big 10/10.

I have passed by this little restaurant about a thousand times, and never went in. We decided to made a reservation for this past Saturday evening. Best Decision we have made in a long time. The Service , Ambiance, and last but not least, The Food was Excellent. They have a great wine selection. And a sommelier who knows his craft. If you have a desire to visit a really Great Dining Out experience in Laval , this should be your choice. The veal was done to perfection, the Beet Salad was to die for. Service was very good. The desert was very good. Creme Brulée For my wife, and au chocolat desert for myself The only thing lacking ? The coffee was tepid, not hot,and kind of bland. ( surprised) Please note this is a high quality restaurant, And the prices reflect that.

From 2003 to 2008 I was travelling to Montreal every three weeks and staying in Laval. I first tried their tasting menu in I believe 2006 and was absolutely blown away. I have also enjoyed their alla carte and table d hôte items which are fantastic. I am a physicist and food chemist who has published in the area and continue to run research in the area and since that first tasting have been back several times. Since 2008 I ve have the privilege to have travelled the globe and have eaten in many of the world s best restaurants. To date, however, I have never found a restaurant that produces absolutely perfectly balanced dishes, tasting menus and wine pairings. The chefs and sommelier are absolutely on point and in my opinion out perform many of the Michelin star restaurants I ve eaten at. The dishes are balanced and delicious, the wines are extraordinary, the service is absolutely top notch and the atmosphere perfect. Also the only tasting menu I have experienced where one is really satisfied and full (!) by its conclusion. This year alone I have intentionally driven from Toronto to Montreal (1200 km round trip) twice with a colleague just to experience Le Mitoyen. Anyone in the area (I.e., Montreal) should consider making the trip as I would be hard pressed to believe anyone who enjoys these experiences will be disappointed. To many more years and experience to Le Mitoyen!

I have been going to this restaurant for at least fifteen years and the food, atmosphere and service have always been there. Last Tuesday, I went there with my lover for the first time since 2019. We had a lot of disappointments in restaurants we went to after the pandemic so we had no expectations. What a nice surprise to see that nothing has changed! I had made a reservation, even though it was a Tuesday (we always reserve at Mitoyen). The service was excellent and very professional, the waiter was discreet but never failed to be there when we needed him. The food was just as excellent as before, that is to say fantastic, and the atmosphere in our little room was very cozy. A beautiful gastronomic evening. In a few words, this restaurant is even worth a detour like we did from Brossard!

This is a great restaurant but there are some issues preventing it from achieving 5 star status. For one, the service is extremely slow. Unless you have 3-4 hours dont bother. I enjoy fine dining & still found this insanely slow compared to other restaurants in the industry. Food was great, but not incredible. Around the table we had bison cheek, deer steak, scallops, Tuna tartare, all of which simply met expectations. Nothing really stood out in our eyes, nothing was remarkable. They also have limited digestifs which is surprising. Value for experience is quite good, we ate very well for roughly $250 / couple with tip included. Its a nice spot to experience on a trip, but not a place I would dine regularly, or even more than once! We enjoyed ourselves, so overall 4 stars.

So first of all we were at the table of 4 like referenced in the negative review from Biana. Everyone else had a stellar meal and the service was exceptional. Weve asked her to remove the completely unfair review but so far its still up so we felt no choice but to leave a review of our own. This is not the first time we invited her someplace and although everyone else had a great experience she ordered something she didnt like. Let me put it in perspective. The wagu steak was a luxury item more than 3 times the price of everything else on the menu. If u order something like that you take the chance to see if you like it and if its worth doing for you again. As stated in review it was OK so essentially just It was not matching HER expectations. In this case the rest of us feel it was a case of buyers remorse. Imagine being the waiter and someone makes a scene perhaps even in an attempt to return a very expensive meal that simply one person doesnt like. Sure if you dont like a $30-40 meal you can do that.. bring me something different please.. this is not to my liking.. but no you cant do that with a $140+ wagu steak. If YOU dont like it tough. Dont order it next time. The waiter otherwise was perfect and we felt very welcome as he was personable and attentive. There was just nothing he could do about Biana in that situation. We do not support that review and since we brought her there we feel responsible and apologize for putting the restaurant in this position. Not only was our fantastic meal partially ruined by her attitude (premature departure) and subsequent review (which came in while we were still at the restaurant), but now a fantastic restaurant and great waiter has been defamed unfairly. Please pay no attention to that review and come see for yourself. Its a great restaurant and other people agree with us in countless reviews! Again.. Weve asked her to reconsider her stance but, that failing, perhaps its best that we simply not include her from now on in our restaurant adventures.

We went to dinner, me and my friend, at the restaurant Le Mitoyen. It was a first for us, but obviously certainly not the last. Basically, we had just returned from an activity that required a very casual look. We chose the restaurant last minute and didnt have any spare linen with us. We feared being judged at the restaurant. But no, as soon as we arrived, we received 5 star treatment from our server, as well as the other members of the staff. Regarding physical locations. The restaurant is located in an old house with a rustic decor, which gives it a lot of character. We quickly feel encompassed by the atmosphere, it s really very comforting and warm. We couldnt resist the tasting menu with the food and wine pairing. We enjoyed all the dishes, as well as the wines which were carefully selected. I highly recommend the tasting menu, it s definitely a culinary experience with every bite. The chef has created a menu that presents an absolutely delicious marriage of flavor and texture. The cooking of each dish was perfect and the sequence of dishes follows each other perfectly, both in terms of taste and in terms of rhythm. As for the quality of service, it was absolutely impeccable. The waiter was very respectful, funny, attentive and he took all the time necessary to explain the dishes to us, as well as the wines to select for pairing. I was surprised that he was not a sommelier, given his in-depth knowledge of the subject and his capacity for popularization. In short, thank you to the chef, our server, as well as the whole team! We had a wonderful evening.

The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful. Nice atmosphere, rustic and cozy. We go the tasting menu with wine pairing and it was phenomenal. Each dish tasted amazing. We were served by Nelson. Probably the best service I ever got at a restaurant. He took his time explaining every single dish we got in the tasting menu as well as the wine. Was very patient, expressive and pleasant to talk to. He really spoiled us and at the end gave us a tour of the restaurant and information about the history of the place. Honestly highly recommend.

Warm, informative and really fantastic wines paired with every dish. To me he is the epitome of what a good host is. I was also really impressed with the wine list itself not just displaying French wines but a nice diversity and in particular well priced wines, at a wide price range- which is rare now-a-days.

My recent dining experience at Le Mitoyen was regrettably overshadowed by subpar service. Ambiance was ok, food was so so, but the lack of competence and attentiveness from the service staff left much to be desired. Service timing was erratic, with prolonged delays between courses and a noticeable lack of attention to empty glasses or requests for basic amenities. The disappointing service significantly impacted the overall enjoyment of the meal. I hope Le Mitoyen takes this feedback constructively, recognizing the importance of refining their service standards to match the potential of their culinary offerings.

Such a charming restaurant, feels like something out of a Christmas movie. The food was incredible, not one of the 7 dishes we tried was anything less than amazing. The dishes were complex in flavour and ingredients without ever being offensive. The highlight of our evening was Patrick, a generous and kind host with an obvious passion for his work. His love for his team and the menu was so obvious and he guided us through the menu with such enthusiasm that I felt like I sampled every item on that menu. Will be back!

The quality of the food is above the $$ that they charge for each plate. All of our plates were beautiful and delicious. We had the salmon, lamb tartares, salad, duck, and the filet mignon - amazing! Desserts were plated beautifully. The service in this restaurant always leaves us feeling that our patronage matters. Classy dining without a hefty bill at the end. Thank you to the owner and the staff for such a wonderful experience!

It was really good. I had the special Valentines Day menu. It s a 7-course tasting menu. On the other hand, I didnt have dessert. The service is great but a little slow on the kitchen side. The meal lasted 3h30

We ate very well. The deer tartare yum yum. Its been a while since Ive tasted such a good filet mignon. I chose the good veal chop. The service, how can I put it, since returning to restaurants after the constraints of COVID. It was the best service we had thanks to the kind NELSON. He loves people and work. He puts a lot of heart and kindness into it. The summary is an excellent restaurant.

Hello, I was very disappointed with the service from the waitresses, one spoke so loudly that it was embarrassing, the other who was learning the trade, according to the other waitress, completely lacked good manners, and each time When she was putting wine in my cup, she put her elbow in front of my face, instead of going around to my right. I noted that the lamb shank chewed like gum in the mouth. For the price paid, I wouldnt advise anyone to spend that much money, for a similar atmosphere, and passable food

The food was excellent. The sauces are so good that we ignored good manners and wiped the plate with the bread. Really well done! The clams were tender as can be. The pan-fried foie gras with pear highlighted the slightly nutty taste of the foie gras. In short, from starter to dessert, we loved it. And we must highlight the work of our server Giovanni. We felt like princesses! Well done Mr. Richard and your entire team!

we had a small family reunion at this restaurant in July. It was one of the best restaurant experiences I have had in a long time. I have visited this restaurant many times over the years/its country charm is unbeatable, the service has varied a bit over the years, but the staff that looked after us on our last visit was simply first class, and the food was excellent. It all made for a perfect and memorable evening. thanks and keep up the good work.

The quality of cuisine is really worth the hype and the price. Cohesive, well executed menu progression with great wine pairing options. We had the scallops special appetizer, shrimp salad, chilled tomato soup, mushroom (second course, can t remember the other dish elements, but it was amazing) veal shank, and beef cheek. Each dish was so delicious, visually and tastefully memorable! Truly an impressive culinary experience. Nice romantic ambiance, small and cozy space that feels fancy yet homey. The service is easily of equal caliber, if not higher. Thanks Norman for taking great care of us!

Awesome cozy restaurant with warming atmosphere especially with its fireplace. Calm vibe so you can have a conversation. the staff is awesome, let you take your time and enjoy the night as the table is booked for the whole night: no pressure. the Risotto and Escalope de foie gras are great starters. For meat lovers, the main dish can be a wide selection, went with the: filet mignon de veau which is served with ravioli stuffed with foie gras and the Carre dagneau that comes with a puree smashed with agneau inside it. love it and will definitely come back.

What an improvement! This restaurant by Chef Richard Bastien is entirely in line with Leméac. Le Mitoyen has always had a pleasant if not picturesque decor, the food has always been good but the speed of the service left something to be desired. After taking leave of this establishment my wife and I returned and we were completely won over. Firstly, the service was more than perfect, from reception to table service. We arrived at 7:15 p.m. and left at 9 p.m. completely delighted. All the dishes were excellent, careful and tasty. The comments from our table neighbors, 2 other tables of couples, were just as complimentary. The quality ratio taken is also excellent. We will go back; This restaurant is worth the detour.
