L’Estaminet - Montreal, Quebec

Always the best option in town. Good food, good service, menu often changing. The salmon risotto was excellent

Went for dinner on a late Saturday afternoon (~3pm) and I was mostly alone till about 5pm. I would suggest making a reservation beforehand. I had the pumpkin and red pepper soup (delicious), maple smoked salmon bonbons (meh, a tad salty), maple tart (toooo sweet for me) the ... Trou Normand - a very small sorbet scoop in a splash of vodka served in a shot glass and the highlight of my meal - the Moroccan braised lamb shank. The fall-off bone meat and root vegetables were tender, the accompanying sauce delicious, the dish very filling and just a joy to eat. I highly recommend it! Read more

Fun and inexpensive french bisto-café serving local and accessible fare. Went there for Mtl-à-Table and loved exploring their table-d'hôte options. It was a busy night but service was decent. The food was fresh and somewhat interesting; not too refined, but not just easy plates slapped together haphazardly; they have character! ... Their drinks were not too tasty tho, otherwise an enjoyable night. Read more

Very nice place, tasty food and the service is good. It’s a cute spot for a date or morning time with the family

Small portions for the price :( the smoothie was delicious however. The cheesecake was nice and tangy, like it had a hint of citrus in it. The pouding chômeur was delicious, warm and fresh. The waitress was very sweet despite the slow service due to short of staff (I was warned ... for the delay, so no complaints here). Read more
