Great experience for MTLaTable! The food was delicious with just the fish dish being a little blend compared to all the wonderfully flavourful dishes. The duck cromesquis was my favorite! Service was amazing, they treat their guests so well. I would definitely come back to try their regular menu.

The ambiance and decor was very nice. The cocktails were really good and some of the food items (deserts, the duck confit, the scallops) were really good as well. However when it came to the entrees, the lamb shank was very average, really nothing special. The mash that came with it was good but something I could've done home. The ravioli we received was undercooked and hard. The service was good.

Our meal and overall experience at Le Boulevardier was excellent. The service was so good - Stephanie our server and Jordan our sommelier were both welcoming and attentive. They made sure we had the best experience. The food was truly incredible. The flavours, creativity, and presentation were top notch. I tried dishes I’ve never had before and also tried some more familiar ones but offering a new fresh approach. We had the table d’haute offering with pairings. I had the beef carpaccio, scallops and sea bass while my friend had the burrarta, duck confit and ravioli. We couldn’t pick a favourite as they were all executed expertly. The desserts, a pear dish and a hazelnut chocolate ensemble were beyond compare. I would recommend this restaurant 100%. As English speakers we felt welcome. There a real sense of team at this restaurant. They should be very proud if what they do here, as it is simply perfect.

We had a wonderful dinner, the service was excellent. We had the pain perdu with lobster and the scallops for appetizers. Then we had the lobster risotto and the beef tenderloin with fried fois gras. For dessert we had their take on the Mille feuille, it was superb. The wine was nice and the cocktail, Mansfield, was very tasty. At the end we had a small glass of le coq d'or, which was very nice. Excellent way to spend our 10 year wedding anniversary. Thank you to all the staff there.

Food was great but service could be better. The sommelier was forcing everyone to have a glass of wine and did unwanted refills. We were charged by the glass (over 300$) but it would've been way cheaper by the bottle. Had pieces of paper floating in my water and my friend's coffee had lipstick stains (they were nice and exchanged both for us). Expect to get an email from them if you give a 1-star review. Very sad because we are a large group that have lunch together every month. We all agreed to never come back.

Good experience, good food, nothing out of the ordinary. It's not the kind of complexity that will blow your mind out, but it was decently thought out and well prepared. Compared to other similarly priced experiences, it was lacking any surprise effect in the flavor and culinary conception. They charged for sparkling water, which is not something that should happen at this price point. Service was very good, attentive and experienced.

The best dinner experience of my life. They accommodated me as a vegetarian and put together a vegetarian 6 course tasting menu apparently for the first time ever. You wouldn't know it though, every dish we had (my husband eats meat) was phenomenal. The portions were sized perfectly that you could enjoy a few bites of it and we were stuffed by the end. The service from our waiter Nicolas was impeccable. The lobster risotto and mushroom ravioli in particular were out of this world, as was the dessert. Cannot recommend this place enough. Well worth the money for the quality of food and service.

Another wonderful experience at Le Boulevardier. I first discovered them a few years ago where they impressed me during MTL à Table and I've been back several times over the years as a result. I'm overdue to leave them a review. One of the first things I remember impressing me was how they took my allergies seriously. For instance, one time in the past, I ordered oysters and told them not to bother bringing any hot sauce or anything spicy since I couldn't use it anyways. On their own initiative, they brought me a delicious pear-based mignonette instead that I still rave about. Much more special and unique than the standard onion and red-wine based mignonette that often comes with raw oysters. I also took a chance in 2024 to try their Montreal en Lumiere menu and was totally wowed by the creativity and daring and unique menu they came up with. Now I will focus on my most recent visit in July 2024. I had the scallops in bacon cream sauce and it was delicious. The scallops were cooked just right and I completely cleaned my plate of all the sauce with the bread. It was the kind of dish where you stopped talking to people at your table because it was so delicious you couldn't focus on the conversation and just automatically tune everything out while you are absorbed in the taste explosion in your mouth. The beef with foie gras and potatoes daupinois with asparagus was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I loved everything on my plate, and it all went together wonderfully. The beef was so tender, each bite melted in my mouth and the foie gras elevated it to another level of decadence. I normally don't order things like steaks, preferring to choose my own cuts of quality beef and cooking them at home, but I had no regrets at all ordering this dish. The knowledgeable servers told us it was a signature dish that they often keep on the menu even when other selections on the menu change. Now I understand why. The dessert was also unique (it had mushroom ice cream) and beautiful. The service was impeccable. Everyone we spoke with was so knowledgeable about the food and alcohol pairings, and knew everything about the menu, what to recommend, etc., and did so with obvious passion, professionalism and enthusiasm. The ambiance is lovely, well decorated, and classy without being stuffy or arrogant. I always feel so comfortable and happy whenever I dine here. The staff are truly welcoming. I also appreciate that they don't cram tables too close together, so you can enjoy your conversations with your companions at your table without raising your voice and feel at ease without feeling like neighboring tables can listen in. Please keep up the excellent food, service and experience! I will definitely be back to try those seafood platters, as well as other items on the menu I didn't get chance to try yet. Le Boulevardier has continued to deliver over the years and has landed in my personal top 10 in Montreal list. I hope they continue in this fashion and I look forward to my next visit.

I love Germain. I like the place. Lets say the sommelier comes to the table faster than the waiter or the bill for the meal. Besides, we dont bother to ask if its 50%-50%, when the clients dont seem to be spouses! Which means we have to start again. The noise level was abnormally high yesterday afternoon. The meal was excellent. The scents of the hall left a good memory at the start. See you soon. Parking: Better to go there on foot. Or park in a public parking lot around.

My lunch was good; one of my guests had the salade niçoise, which he said was not very good. The space is noisy. And both times I was there (24 & 25 October), service dropped away once the food was served. We ran out of water and it was hard to get attention to order coffee or get the bill.

Very good restaurant in the center of Montreal where we had a great time tasting the 4-course menu for $65! It was very good and very well presented! We took the 4-glass wine option, a bit of a shame that we only tasted French wines, I think...the wine list is almost non-existent for world wines, I think its a shame to focus on French wines when the wines are foreigners allow us to make great discoveries...otherwise the quantities of wine in the glasses are too tight on a menu at this price it really gives the impression that we are not there to please the customers....

We were a group of 11 people to whom I wanted to introduce this wonderful, intimate and warm restaurant, in downtown Montreal, well hidden in the heart of the Hotel Germain. We were able to taste an incredible gourmet menu, created especially for the Montreal à table festival. 4 courses of 3 choices each, each as delicious and wonderfully presented as the next, with a perfect wine pairing that is absolutely worth discovering! The service was very professional, attentive and warm. Another strong point: we could hear each other talking and have conversations between all of us, despite our large group, something unfortunately too rare these days due to the noise level being far too high in many restaurants A huge congratulations and thank you to the entire kitchen, service and wine team, in particular Marc and Tom Diane Sauvé and her group

I tried the restaurant three times while staying at the Germain Hotel. The lunch menu offers a nice variety, including the classic American lunch, healthier options but also European-style lunches with pastries. The lunch menu also offers a good choice. I really liked the tuna tartare. The best surprise, however, is in the evening. The restaurant offers a 4 course starting at $65 where you choose between 2 or 3 options for each course. You can also add a food and wine pairing for an additional $45. I found the cuisine very tasty and comforting. It was also excellent value for money and I had a lovely evening. I am now thinking of going back there with my family on my next visit to Montreal.

The decor is a mix between the mid century and the 60s and the modern, favorite. Only comment from us, cost of the wine list by the glass and in general but made up for by their import inventories. Jef and Audrey Parking: eager service but must use the valets for the whole, more limited access.

We had the tasting menu with the wine pairing. The food was excellent, each dish tasty and worthy of great gastronomy. The portions are well balanced. On the other hand, the wine pairing totally disappointed us. For a fee of $95 per person, you would expect a lot more. The first service was accompanied by a beer tasting (definitely, we are far from a wine pairing), for the 2nd service, we offered a Bread and Butter which I refused, we were then served a Jos Meyer that you can find for $23 at the SAQ... the waiter poured the bottom of the bottle with the residue into my glass. The portions were not generous. Were talking 2.5 ounces per serving... we finished with a Frangelico. For a $95 per person pairing, one would expect IP wines and not beer and Frangelico...

We were sincerely received like kings. The food is simply delicious. Impeccable service and a relaxed atmosphere despite the fact that the restaurant was full. We ate the scallops and lobster French toast as a starter and as a main meal the filet mignon, the rack of lamb and the sea bass fillet. Everything was delicious. No negative points. The only downside, and that s for all bars and restaurants, Clamato in a fountain for a Bloody Caesar is a big NO. It is not drinkable. I think it would be 100% better with bottled Clamato. Besides that, everything was perfect. We will be back soon to continue the tradition.

Updates: The restaurant followed up quickly and apologized, which is a nice gesture to show that they do care about their service. So updating my overall rating. Original review: We visited to celebrate our wedding, expecting a memorable experience, but it was far from that. The sommelier was dismissive after congratulating us, simply because we opted for cocktails instead of a bottle of wine. When ordering drinks, he ignored me and two others at the table, and only after the entire table flagged him down did he grudgingly take my order. He still ignored the rest, and we had to repeatedly call him back to finish our orders. The food was overpriced and disappointing overcooked foie gras and mediocre dishes. Service was slow and inattentive. For a high-end restaurant, it was a letdown. Wouldn t recommend.

What an unpleasant experience we had for lunch and it s unfortunate as the place is 5 mins away from our office... My team and I went in for a corporate lunch and something went sour and made the whole experience very uncomfortable. The good: we pre-ordered appetizers and main courses the day before and the appetizers were served as we were sitting down (super fast service!). Food was generally decent. Some portions were very small, others perfect. The ugly: the sommelier!! He brute forced wine on my team telling them it was included, pouring in 26$ à glass to most..interesting as I specifically mentioned that we will not be buying any bottles of wine and ended up paying significantly higher in total he was not even asking whether they wanted any, just forcing in red or white for you? . This made them extremely uncomfortable and me extremely unhappy with the bill they also served the 10$ desserts on everyone without asking I have to say the deserts were removed from the bill when we mentioned that only one person wanted it as per our pre-selections. Hence, very unpleasant experience and unorthodox upselling techniques. We will not be coming back.

Probably one of the best restaurants currently in Montreal, without a doubt. The customer is at the center of all attention: welcome, service, quality and preparation of dishes. An excellent address to discover or rediscover, the menu is an invitation to taste...and to come back. We can only congratulate the team in place.

What a beautiful evening! We were going there for the second time as a couple, the first in winter for their famous meat with pan-fried foie gras, this time at the end of summer with the superb seafood platter Le Boulevardier. Never disappointed. The service really makes the difference for a good restaurant because it is personalized, friendly and warm. The sommelier and the head waiter were really attentive without imposing themselves, available for discussion because we were very curious to understand their motivations for such great service On the plate side, we also really liked the dessert, notably the choice based on mushroom ice cream, an originality brought by a very young, daring and creative Chef who left us in awe. Coming from the hotel industry myself, I respect these professions and the art of serving beautiful and good food. A restaurant, although in a hotel, to be discovered by locals in search of culinary sensations and emotions!

Le Boulevardier is one of our favorite restaurants, where we like to return every year for a romantic dinner. There is a unique atmosphere, a perfect balance between the warm comfort of feeling at home, thanks to the kindness and courtesy of the service, and the gastronomic experience, always up to our expectations. Special mention to the sommelier for this quality advice and to the young pastry chef who amazes our taste buds with her generosity and creativity. We can only highly recommend this experience.

It was my first time at this restaurant. The Cromesquis Canard- duck foie gras was creamy and rich. The filet beef was juicy and cooked to absolute perfection. Dessert which was an extremely tiny (only probably a couple of bites) Champignons-Erable was delicious. Our server was very chatty but not too attentive. I found it a little chilly in the restaurant and the atmosphere didn t have a warm and elegant feel of a high end restaurant. I will definitely return for the exquisite food.

The food was absolutely amazing! But if you dont speak French - forget about it. Some staff is interns from France that dont know how to speak English, the other portion are from Quebec that are taught to make you feel miserable if you do speak English, even when you try to be extremely nice to them. If you want to ruin your evening thats definitely a place to be. Extremely sad as the chef is talented and the food is amazing. But its hard to put up with the snobs in service that completely ignore you just because you speak English. Disgraceful place, shame on you - you definitely dont represent all the good and sweet Canadians we met last few days.

The service and atmosphere exceeded expectations. The soup was extremely small but tasty three or four spoonfulls not worth ordering. We had the worst desert of our lives here. Very poor deserts. It was horrible focaccia ice cream and peach.To be clear it was very very bad. Sad because the main couses were excellent. They need a new pastry chef..

Amélie and Nicolas generously shared their passion for gastronomy and advised us on how to enjoy refined dishes cooked with love with top quality ingredients. Our excellent sommelier was able to enhance everything with surprising wine choices for our greatest pleasure. The prime rib of rare quality and cooked to perfection and the rack of lamb are to be recommended. Light and subtle desserts end an extraordinary meal in style.

Ordered a tasting menu 6 courses. Sophisticated. Flavorful. Classic French plating Sweat fresh crab meat. Calamari perfect tender loverly dressing but croutons felt bit hard not crunchy. Perfect Lobster risotto. Very flavorful rabit saddle and plum and just the right salt. Good cheese plate average age / dryness / good flavor. Amazing gelato dessert I dont understand why utensils were not changed between dishes. Plating is good and classic but suggest to elevate a bit since many like it wow on photo. Restaurant had a high end setting. Nice decor / lighting / color scheme. Nice comfort bench Host and server show welcome / smile. Server seems mix experience. I was seated and there is no one came to us for approx 10 min maybe less I didnt time. Just a greeting is all we needed if you are busy. I asked for a change of table windows seat and got the okay from the host. There is missed of communication where other reply windows seating was reserved I had only tap water and no wine. I felt I was pushed for bottle water. Reminded second time to get me slice of lemon. When refill my water I was asked bottle water again. This show server doesnt remember what I ordered in such a high end setup. At least they serve dishes on the serving side. Server did not brief on dishes being served. It is often a nice touch to tell guess whats on your plate.

Will make it round two, next time in Montreal. Vegetarian options: The mushroom ravioli is house made and absolutely delicious!

We had a nice dinner at Le Boulevardier. Though the menu is pretty limited, most of our food was very good. Lobster toast was OK, though had onions which were not listed on the menu. Duck confit Witt foie gras was good though not at all what I expected based on the menu description and was basically a duck meatball. Oysters were so-so and they did not have cocktail sauce. Tenderloins with grill foie gras were good, though one was a bit overcooked. Good meal overall, though slightly overpriced. Service was fine.

What a lovely evening at this delightful restaurant in the Hotel St Germaine in Montreal. Four of us chose different meals from the menu and we were all delighted. Rack of lamb, lobster French toast, mushroom ravioli, lobster risotto all were uniquely presented and delicious! Excellent service.

Food was absolutely amazing. For starter we had oysters and the lobster french toast - both excellent. For main I had the Beef Tenderloin topped with Foie Gras and it was the best tenderloin Ive had anywhere. I think the Foie Gras really just took it to the next level and thats not a typically available steak topping where Im from. The servers were all friendly and very helpful and we needed some help because we didnt speak much French. Definitely would recommend and I wished we had gone here earlier in our trip so we could go again. Kid-friendliness: We didnt need it because our daughter is not a picky eater but they offered additional picky-kid friendly options just in case.

Unfortunately, despite this being a frequent favourite of our family, this was the second poor experience. Upon arrival, in advance 15 minutes for a 1230 table, I was admonished for being too early. I was advised to wait elsewhere and come back. Not politely - abrasive and frankly rude. Upon my return at 1225, the host seated three couples who arrived AFTER me. Seated and waiting an eternity for water. Upon arrival of my guest, the same host hovered waiting for us to order (no time to decide). The meal finished and the restaurant 80% empty, we waited 20 minutes for our dirty plates to be removed. We ordered cappuccinos and the dessert trio each. The coffee arrived quickly, the dessert trio 15 minutes later - coffee finished. Very, very poor service. Very unfortunate for such a previously excellent establishment. This was the second poor visit in a row. Looking for a new destination. Best regards
