My wife and I just came back from a long weekend in Montreal. The hotel exceeded everything we could have asked for. The staff were super accommodating, professional and friendly . The room was immaculate and the hotel was absolutely charming. Food was awesome as well! Hope to return again soon!

I've been staying at le Germain several times but it was the first time I stayed in Montreal. The service is excellent and the staff is courteous, prompt and professional. Food is delicious, I do think room service is worth it. The only few downsides: Honestly, the cleaning isn't up to par, I grabbed the ice bucket from the upper shelf not knowing it was filled with water, clearly thr previous people who stayed had used it, as a result I was drenched with water meaning the cleaning staff did not think of verifying the ice bucket. I had to quickly dry dress shirt with the hairdryer before heading out to my meeting (I was short on time). The gym is also not as cleaned, the equipment, the treadmill etc. could clearly use a more thorough inspection, you can see bottle marks, dusts, the mats aren't taken care of. I do think that the gym overall could use an upgrade too, it's the least conforming part of the hotel luxurious vibe.

Just 5 mins from Viarail station by taxi, if you like 60's music the bar/lounge is the place to be (we knew all the words), We had the devil eggs and Brushetta which was awesome. All the staff are fantastic, great food in Le Boulevardier restaurant, tasting menu was truly delicious. Kudos to everyone.

Great rooms, beautiful hotel. I don't regret staying here one bit. The only note of caution is the restaurant. Don't get anything too fancy for room service, it's not that it's bad but go somewhere nice instead. My colleague and I agreed that the restaurant was okay at best.

I had an excellent stay at Le Germain overall, with one standout moment being the exceptional service from the valet Jaskarm. He went above and beyond by running to a nearby convenience store to grab me a drink, which truly made my day and highlighted their dedication to guest satisfaction. The hotel itself was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained, and the staff were generally friendly and attentive. My only complaint is the restaurant it fell short of expectations with slow service, Despite this, the valet’s outstanding effort and the overall positive experience would bring me back. Highly recommend for a pleasant stay!

Pizza Il Focolaio is more than a restaurant — it’s a journey. We ordered a table full of treasures: the Prosciutto, the timeless Margherita, the bold Toro with Kalamata and pancetta, and a Napolitaine made perfectly lactose-friendly. To finish, not one but two desserts arrived — a sweet surprise — with tiramisu that felt like a gift from Italy itself. Each bite carried me back to memories of hiking through Italy, where simple ingredients and wood-fired flavors turned every village meal into a story. The warmth of the food, the care in the service, and the atmosphere here made the evening unforgettable. If you’re in Montréal and want pizza that truly speaks of Italy — this is the place. Grazie, Il Focolaio. 🌿🍕✨

This is one of the best pizza places in Montreal. So many options to choose from and you can customize further. The crust was amazing and is the best part of the pizza. It is cooked in a stone oven so I wasn't surprised I wish they had a larger size but that's my only complaint! I will return.

Place cozy and really nice. Staff friendly. Maybe the best pizza in the world, it was really really delicious and price is good! We tried carrot cake, the waiter told us that it was from one of the best bakeries in Montreal and omg, yes!! It was amazing.

The atmosphere was lively and festive. For food, we ordered the Walsh Burger, and it was glorious—juicy, flavorful, and exactly what we were craving. The service was excellent; the staff was friendly and attentive

Came here on Monday night, the atmosphere is quite cosy, the service and the food are good. So many beer options on tap love that!

I really enjoyed this pub! We went on a Friday night while we were waiting for our show nearby. The old-school vibes were right on point. We got a few pints and a few shots. Along with some apps. All was great, and the price wasn't pricey. The place is also quite big. I'm willing to bet this place pops off during Saint-Patrick's Day, no doubt. All to say, keep it up; I'll pop by during Saint-P's day.

We sat at the bar for dinner. The fact that it wasn’t busy on a Saturday night should have told us something. After a couple beers, we ordered chicken fingers with onion rings and fish and chips. Both were large portions and the quality was good but not great. It irritated us that we were charged $.75 for an extra tartar sauce. Our bartender Tara was personable and efficient. But we wish we had waited in line for our first choice.
Todd P - a year ago

We came at lunch. Tara was our server. Service was fast, friendly and food was Amazing! We visited for the weekend to see the Habs game so when Hungry again headed back and Mark served us. He was Hilarious! Such a great guy! We couldn't believe how well he managed a full house and still had incredible customer service. We will 100% be back again and recommend to anyone who visits ❤️ Thanks for such a great time and delicious food guys ! We appreciate you 🙏

Great service and good choice of food. Especially thank you to ML who was awesome with us ! The porc knuckle is great the porc burger okay - a bit heavy - and the regular cheese burger very nice- the fries were very dry so I recommend getting the coleslaw or pay extra for another choice of sweet potato fries. The halloumi appetiser was ok so not worth the 13$ in my opinion Overall good experience with nice staff and convenient location

I went to 3 Brasseurs McGill on a weekday, and even though it was pretty busy, the atmosphere was lively and fun. The service was a bit on the slower side, but the staff were friendly and accommodating once things got moving. The food itself was great, everything came out fresh and tasty. I especially appreciated the kids’ meals, which were a really good deal and made it easy to enjoy a family night out without breaking the bank. Overall, it’s a solid spot for good food and a vibrant vibe, just be prepared for a little wait if it’s busy.

The service was fast and efficient. Attentive and present We generally liked everything but nothing was wow. Fresh tuna in the tartar. Spicy chicken burger was good but not very tender. I enjoyed the vegetables flamm wrap even though it was missing sauce to my taste. Didn't like the terrasse, to close to the street, chair in old metal, but we could have sat inside too. For a simple and warm meal, I would go again, and I would try other things, the menu seems riche.

Our 2nd visit to this chain. We love the Happy Hour with Beer pints for 5,- CAD until 7pm - especially the Amber 🍻 The Caesars salad for my wife was very good. My Traditional Sauerkraut had 2 different Sausages, Large Portion of Sauerkraut, piece of ham and potatoes. Everything was Great, besides the potatoes, which already looked like they had a „white shell“ from warming up once too often and tasted bad. Coming from Germany, we would recommend to serve Mashed potatoes with this dish anyway 😉

We recently had a positive experience at Sho Dan Sushi in Montreal. After a day of Browse the fantastic boutiques and shops nearby, it was the perfect place to unwind and grab a bite. The sushi was fresh, with a beautiful, clean flavor, and the staff were very friendly, which made the whole experience even better. It’s a great spot for anyone looking for delicious, high-quality sushi and excellent service, especially when you’re in the mood for a shopping break.

Swanky sushi place with upscale ambiance and attentive wait staff. The two specialty rolls we had (Adam and Black Dragon) were exceptional and creative. However, the edamame was overcooked and the non-specialty rolls were bland tasting, though beautiful looking. Stick to the specialty rolls and you'll have an exceptional meal!

Delightful sushi, amazingly fresh fish, original flavours and textures— definitely some of the best sushi in the city. Yes the price is steep, but it is reflected in the quality and quantity of the fish, beautiful presentation, and great service.

Restaurant Sho-dan (2020 Metcalfe St, Montreal, Quebec H3A 3C8) is a place where gastronomic pleasure is perfectly combined with impeccable service. ✨ From the very first minute you find yourself in an atmosphere of hospitality and attention. 😊 Each employee of the restaurant, from the hostess to the waiters, strives to make your stay here as comfortable as possible. 👍 The service is truly top notch, as in the best restaurants in Montreal. Sho-dan has a special atmosphere that располагает to a pleasant pastime. ✨ The open kitchen allows you to watch the cooking process, which adds a special interest. 👨‍🍳 Cleanliness and order are another plus of this establishment. Japanese cuisine at Sho-dan is a real art! 🍣 All dishes are prepared from the freshest ingredients and have an exquisite taste. 😋 And the bar offers a wide selection of interesting drinks that perfectly complement your dinner. 🍹 Restaurant Sho-dan is a great place for a romantic date, meeting friends or a family dinner. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Highly recommend! #Shodan #Montreal #Quebec #Canada #restaurant #japanesecuisine #sushi #service #atmosphere #delicious #recommend

Once inside Sho-Dan, I found myself underwhelmed by the overall atmosphere. The décor lacks character, with plain white tablecloths and a lack of any distinctive features. Instead of exuding a sushi restaurant ambiance, it feels more like an upscale Italian establishment catering to an older demographic. Unfortunately, my initial impression fell short of excitement. However, my disappointment took a turn when we decided to sample a variety of items from the menu. The sushi exceeded expectations, boasting a delightful freshness and appealing presentation. Accompanied by flavorful sauces, the culinary experience was elevated. The house drinks were also noteworthy, adding a positive note to our dining experience. While the staff exhibited kindness, there was a slight lack of enthusiasm, though the service remained decent. In conclusion, it's a venue worth considering if you're seeking exceptionally good sushi. The culinary delights outweigh the lackluster ambiance, making it a destination for sushi enthusiasts.

A little more expensive then elsewhere, but the portions reflect that and you get big plates of food. Everything we had was very good. Sadly, my burger was slightly over cooked, certainly not medium as advertised. Still good though. Desserts are delicious. Service was excellent! Knowledgeable, friendly, bilingual, fast! All in all a good meal. There's no way you leave this restaurant hungry!

This is the original Reuben's located in the basement on St Catherine's Street. The other location at ground level isn't as good so make sure you try this one. We have been coming here for many years and the smoked meat is always really good and one of the best. We love the atmosphere and service is always top notch. We had the smoked meat poutine and smoked meat spaghetti. Both were delicious and portions were really good. Prices have gone up though but I still think it's worth it. Don't miss the cheesecake for dessert it's one of the best. Looking forward to our next trip to Montreal to come back again!

Came for the F1 weekend with my fiancé and his brother! I'm a real smoked meat lover and you can taste how fresh the meat is compared to the smoked meat places on the southshore. The hostess and the man at the front (seems like a manager) were very hospitable and very kind. Our server was very nice too. I had the classic smoked meat sandwich, my boyfriend had the F1 burger and his brother had the chicken burger. If you haven't tried this place already, please do! And make sure you try a cheesecake before you go 😉
Laura Helliker - 4 months ago

Great experience, thanks to our server for all the recommendations and hospitality. Definitely one of our top 3 meals in Montreal, smoked meat sandwich was the best out of the 3 or 4 places we tried and what a value. It's like eating a thinly sliced perfectly cooked prime rib as the beef flavour and fattiness is perfection. At $29 incl. Fries, coleslaw, and a pickle the price is super fair for the location and comfortable seating. The service was top notch, attentive, and accommodating. Also tried their cheesecake which is very good as well.

Very cool restaurant, felt almost like I was transported to a past decade. Love the vibe and decor. Extremely well maintained establishment. However the food itself felt mediocre. Portion size of the kaiser sandwich was very disappointing and the meats were just okay. There was a subtle lack of attention to detail like placing the pickle on a hot plate just made for a warm pickle which isn’t very appetizing. Poutine was probably my favourite part of the meal. Also one awkward moment of the meal transpired where the server dropped a mayo pack on the floor but swiftly picked it up and tried to conceal her putting it back on the plate and served it to me right after. Extremely odd and somewhat disrespectful moment which I assume was a momentary lapse of judgement. Overall my expectations for the food itself was not lived up to, but it’s a cool restaurant.

The ad is so misleading!! Booked for a Candlelight concert which looked beautiful in pictures. Selected the best seats possible (A section). The ambiance was nothing like what was shown on the website. The musicians saved the day because the music was amazing, but the experience felt cheap. Top picture is the ad, bottom pic is reality.

Had such a blast on the Valentine's jazz night. It's pretty sad to have to rate four stars instead of five for some of small things during it. First of all, the food, the staff, the band, the singer, the wine, atmosphere, location, everything I mentioned above is beyond AMAZING! No complaints on those at all. Sadly I didn't quite enjoy the cocktails so much, we ordered two different cocktails and neither of them can step up with our high expectations, with the price and all the good things I mentioned above. For sure this place is perfect for special occasions, as it's a fancy place to dine, behind and inside of an old church. That part I think it's brilliant! The toilets are quite limited as it's inside the old church but it was not packed at all so I don't find this a negative thing. In summary, best fancy place for live music, food, wine selections not so much for cocktails (in my opinion) OR maybe if you try different cocktails it would have been better. Still recommended!

I had the absolute pleasure of attending Brunch Gospel with Michelle Sweeney and the Gospel Tribe at the Balcon on the 28th, and it was an unforgettable experience! The food was really good but the highlight for me was the music. Michelle Sweeney and the Gospel Tribe delivered performances that were nothing short of electrifying. It was a good way to enjoy great food while being uplifted by incredible live gospel music.

This place is in the former chapel of the St. James church (I have been told). Just fabulous. The gospel choir is outstanding, the eggs Benedict were very enjoyable and Norman, our waiter, was great!

Not a high-end restaurant by any means. It's meant for a quick snack while doing errands or on the way home. I had a Jamaican Patty, it was good, not great. It is what it is for a small restaurant inside the Metro. The staff was very helpful. All in all, a pleasant experience.

I don't know if it has ever happened to you that you walk and the smell of delicious food makes you stop? That happened to me with Pizza Soleil and not only that, it made me go back and order a slice of spicy vegetarian pizza. And I certainly don't regret it. These pizzas are the perfect size, crunchy and delicious.

Chocolates are good and interesting mix However the staff are quite rude and not very friendly. I feel like I'm begging to get some products. I used to think people who work in chocolate stores are happy and friendly, this place prove I'm wrong. We spent over$ 60 the first time we were there. I told my hubby I don't want to go back just because of the same staff.

We enjoyed the ice cream here. Whilst we generally have no preference between ice cream and gelato, we personally prefer the ice cream here than the gelato place in the basement.

Perfect gift for chocolate lovers! They have a wide selection of both dark and milk chocolates and you may choose to fill a custom box or select one of their pre-packaged ones. The employee on shift was kind enough to give me further details and even gave me a piece of chocolate to sample (it was a rich dark chocolate which left a sweet aftertaste). Would definitely come here again!
Pearl Nguyen - 2 years ago

Excellent flavours of chocolate and ice cream, especially like the rich taste of their dark chocolate and waffle sundae. I’d really love to visit here again.
