Rose Ross - Montreal, Quebec

Our hotel made a reservation for us at this off the tourist track restaurant. We split things family style. Appetizers: Fleur de courgette tempura (zucchini blossoms stuffed with ricotta, parmesan, lemon thyme, mushrooms and peppers)-delicious; asparagus with lobster and sauce of (very mild) curry and kefir; ... and last, and the surprise hit, croquette de canard (duck) confit with goat cheese, dill truffles and a carrots vinaigrette. Plats principaux (mains): half Cornish hen with salsa verde, grilled green onions, cherry tomatoes in chili oil (really an appetizer), scallops with miso butter, maitake mushrooms, cabbage and artichokes (my wife’s favorite); and agneau de Kamouraska: braised lamb, it’s jus, pistachios, cipollini onions formed into a brick with a side of parsley potatoes (my favorite). Nice wine list but my son and his fiancé had cocktails (also a hit) so my wife had an Alsatian pinot blanc-pinot gris blend and I an above average Côtes du Rhône. Service was slow but the staff (mostly Chloe) were nice. Didn’t order dessert since we had gone patisserie surfing earlier. Read more

Lovely restaurant. Warm service. Excellent food. Everything was tasty and prepared with care.The deserts were sooo good. I had a lovely time. A true little gem in Montreal. A must try.

Nice and cozy restaurant service was awesome 👌 food was great 5 stars but gave it 4 cause portion a little small for the price. But would return !!!! They also have a great wine selection....

It's a friend from Montreal who made me discover this place couple years ago and I wouldn't go anywhere else when visiting her. The food is incredible for the price tag. Selection of wine is great. I've recently visited Montreal and we went back to Rose Ross, it's was as ... good as in my memory. We both had a lovely time there. Read more

I went to Rose Ross with friends I hadn't seen for a while. The ambiance in the restaurant was lovely, with dim warm lights that made it a very pleasant environment to share a good bottle of wine. The food was very nice. We had the fish balls and akras balls as ... an appetizer, and then the beef with vegetables, chorizo-stuffed squid, and duck. All three plates were good, with the beef being a highlight. Overall, the experience was good, with the kitchen striking a delicate balance between high-end and homely. The price tag is a bit steep for it to be an every day - or every week - restaurant, but for special occasions, it is a great choice. I recommend it wholeheartedly. Read more
