La Champagnerie - Montréal

We were in old montreal for the birthday of my wife and spent over an hour pass menus, try to choose something suitable for Sunday brunch. we came over this jewel and sat on an outside table for 2 hours. our server, lukewarm, moved a table and chairs to provide shadows from the midday sun and to discuss a great work about the menu, serve our eating and striking the perfect balance of professionalism and a friendly, hospitable presence. we loved it so much that on the same day we came back with our daughter and her beau to dinner. jo and didier duplicated the fabulously welcoming and professional service that was previously offered by laurie. they were seamless in the delivery for the nutritional restrictions of our daughters with valuable suggestions from the menu. the food was excellent, the ambiente unbeatable and we stayed for 3 more hours. we make maison st paul a regular destination.

We have a glass of champagne before our dinner reservations elsewhere. we loved it all. the champagne was great and so were the cocktails we tried. all staff were staffed and friendly. erika was our server in the first night and she was great. she convinced us to come back the next night to saber a champagne bottle when we had more time. such a fun experience! we sat on the bar and enjoyed some delicious apps with our bubbly. it will be a must to go back when we visit montreal again!

Came on recommendation of a friend. the champagne list was impressive, but too expensive for us, but the rest of the wine list had many good options. we had the flank steak that was much better than we expected and both impressed us. as one of the less expensive bark pieces on the menu. service was great and the building is beautiful.

Great place for dinner or just drinks. they make excellent cocktails and eating is also excellent. the house made brot is great and wonderful, and the pasta dishes are excellent. service is very good when you visit montreal.

My husband and our mothers dined here last night. It had good reviews and so we were very excited to give it a try. We came in, let them know we did not drink alcohol and proceeded to order our food. They gave us each...a glass of water and then we waited for our appetizers. The appetizers came in a timely fashion and were alright. We then waited for almost an hour for our entrees. They did not refill our water, they did not acknowledge us at all, they were fully staffed and there was only 1 other table filled in the restaurant. My husband asked if there was something wrong and they told him that there is new staff and new management and so that is why it took so long. My husband explained we hadn 't had our waters refilled either and he then filled them up, which was the only time they gave us more water. When the entrees finally did come there was a piece of larger plastic in the midst of mine. When the server was told he just took the food away, no apology, no offer to give me something else. At the end of the meal they told us they took off my meal off of the bill and that was all they said. This was so shocking. My husband said it was ostrich syndrome they were purposefully keeping their heads in the sand. So I would suggest trying one of the many other restaurants in the area if you want to eat. All of our other experiences here in Montreal have been wonderful, just not here (and they all spoke excellent english so there was no language barrier).
