Review from Olivier C.

1 thing on the menu: steak and fries
It's a classic french bistro style restaurant, with the classic "entrecote" menu.
What makes this place is the simplicity of it, no need to read the menu, and whether you go today, next week, next year, or in 10 years from now; you'll be eating the same thing, and i will taste the same way.
The basic is the salad + steak
The "table d'hote" is soupe + salad + steak + dessert
Always simple, always great, a timeless institution of montreal -

A Upscale Steak & Frites place. Food is good. If you go during the winter season, avoid sitting next to the door, because you will feel the cold air blowing in. Don't let the maitre D intimidate you when he says the "curtains" keep the cold hair out... It's a lie!

Our 2nd dinner in this well known place. Above average piece of meat, without being at the top level. At least, you can get it blue, not that easy in North America. Being with good friends helped us waiting forever to get served. 2 hours for a dinner, sounds unusual here. The Brouilly was of great value.

Simple concept, soup of the day, nice salad and the restaurant special - Entrecote - WOW !!
I am total fan of this place, in fact, every time I am in Montreal I make it a point to visit because it is that good !!!
The only problem has been that I cannot find any other place in the world where their entrecote steak is good as this one. Usually this cut of beef is very sinewy - not here ! clean, cooked to order simple and of course with the mandatory serving of fries.
In Montreal ? definitely try this place ! You will like it !Listed in: Top Restaurants, Canada ...O Canada !!!

I must say, this is an interesting concept in a restaurant. The menu is exceedingly simple: Soup of the day, salad with nuts, loin steak + frites, desert. I will hand it to the owner as coming up with a wining formula to make money in a restaurant.
The soup was a tomato-vegetable soup which was thin and did not have any real body. I would expect a more rich soup. Salad was simple lettuce with walnuts and an oil dressing. The salad was too oily and the dressing was lacking flavor. The main course was, again, solid food - but did not impress me with the bistro flavor I was expecting. The loin steak is not the most flavorful cut. The frites were average tasting and would have been better if they were fresher. Dessert was two bollocks on a plate (ice cream balls covered with pastry and covered with chocolate). The pastry was stale, so I just fished out the ice cream.
Overall a decent concept, but with essentially one soup, one salad, one main and one desert on the menu I would expect them all to be excellent and flavorful. This did not live up to my expectations. -

Go here if you feel indecisive about what to eat. There is only one thing to choose from. The steak n frites is solid.

Here, the only choices you make are your wine and how well you want your steak done. This place reminds me of many establishments in Japan where the restaurant specializes in only one item. The result is simplicity and perfection! 5 stars for the food and 5 stars for the excellent service.
