Coming in to Easter weekend, I was dreading trying to figure out how to come up with a nice dinner for the family in the midst of the pandemic... I hoped against hope that some clever restaurant would hear my cry for gastronomic help. Lo and behold, Chez Victoire to the rescue! Seeing they were offering a beautiful Easter dinner set menu for a very reasonable $25/person, I called several days ahead to reserve for four people. They were super nice on the phone and in person when I went to pick things up. Very efficient, prepaid and given a specific time for pick up, I was the only customer in the store. I waited and they placed the order on a table and then I could pick it up. Very smooth. The instructions on how to reheat and serve the meal were very clear and easy to follow. The dinner was a real feast, and great value for the money. There was a butternut squash soup with duck confit and Brussel sprout garnish which we actually saved for lunch the next day because it looked like so much food. For the main course, there was leeks with vinaigrette, cauliflower gratin with béchamel sauce, baked beans with maple syrup and braised lamb, and maple syrup ham with carrots, peas and puréed potatoes. We finished off with a delicious maple syrup tart with pecans. I'd say my only minor issue was that I would have liked just a slightly larger piece of ham, otherwise the meal was perfection! Better than anything I could have come up with even under the best of circumstances. I am secretly hoping they keep doing this even after the pandemic for next Easter. Props to Chez Victoire for finding creative ways to stay open during these crazy times. Can't wait to come here in person when life gets back to normal... and I hope they do the Easter take out menu next year so I can pass it off to my in laws as my own cooking. ;) read more

This is a curious place. In a nutshell, excellent eats, but quite rough off the plates. I'll start with the maitre'd/host, who was sufficiently surly that you might actually mistake him for being a French caricature out of central casting. Our seating was really great, nice and spacious. Our server was simply... the best. She was attentive, gave us excellent recos -- we elected for a smattering of shareable à la carte small plates rather than the three course tasting menu (there seemed to be so much overlap between the two menus anyway, so we elected for the flexibility of à la carte). The boudin with small prawns was fantastic -- the boudin itself held up in flavor yet was delicate in texture. Excellent burrata that came dressed with really fresh accompaniments and mad points for the rustic bread that came nicely toasted. The octopus was generous enough for four of us to have a good taste and move on -- it came with a lovely red sauce that I wanted to mop up with bread. The tuna tartare was brilliant, the french fries that came with it seemed a tad unconventional. And a big win for the lobster risotto, absolute perfection. I wish I could remember the names of the cocktails we ordered but suffice to say, they were all delicious, never harsh in any way. So one thing I wanted to point out was how this one server -- not our main server who was, again, THE BEST -- kept clearing out plates in the middle of eating. Literally, we're in the middle of enjoying a dish and he'd just swoop in, swipe our plates, and dash off. WTF is that about. This lack of awareness definitely took points off an otherwise rather enjoyable meal. Just watch out for the surly host at the front of house and be prepared to fan off the guy trying to take your plate and you just may have yourself a delightful meal here! read more

We throughly enjoyed Chez Victoire. It was the waiter who made the difference. Very professional. Recommended cocktails and wine. The young woman who actually brought the dishes to the table explained each one as she delivered it. We started with a tomato salad with a kind of whipped burrata. Then wonderful grilled octopus. We finished with magret de canard (duck breast) -- prepared medium rare but not as tasty as I would have hoped. read more

Chez Victoire - a group of people in a restaurant - French Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

I planned my visit to Chez Victoire when news came of their special collaboration with Michelin-starred chef Loïc Villemin. Chef Alexandre Gosselin welcomed him in his kitchen to prepare a menu during the Montréal en Lumière festivities. What a nice occasion to discover this restaurant! Chez Victoire is located on the busy and well-loved avenue Mont-Royal, its paneled glass façade gleaming with warmth in the frigid night. The interior is fairly sober and masculine, with a touch of quirkiness (yellow bicycle!). I was seated at the long center table, close to the open kitchen window. It was a busy night, and the team was certainly working hard! I opted for one of the two cocktails designed for the event, featuring pine, herbal tones from gin, and citrus. The amuse-bouches were offered as a trio. A tasty tartlet in a thin, crisp shell, placed on top of a flipped bowl (microwavable, says the print). The second bite was my favorite: a little cocoon of shiso leaf and veal tartare, buttery, herbal and delicate. Then came a brilliantly pure arctic char with roe, besides a pretty construction with crispy potato ''scales''. The two were perfectly tied together with a smooth horseradish-infused cream with chive oil. The pumpkin gnocchi with lobster that followed was intense in its flavours, and had a surprising temperature difference between the warm gnocchi and cold lobster. The thin slices of raw pumpkin were perhaps more decorative than anything else. Then came my favorite dish of the evening: a mysterious piece of cod hidden under a cozy blanket of collagen-enriched sauce, marbled like calligraphy ink on a white page. The fish was a dream of delicacy, yet rich and strong in its flavours. Every bite was eyewateringly good. The duck that followed was a bit tough, despite a good pairing with beets and red fruits. The beet was sliced and rolled as a ribbon, unfortunately loosing its juiciness. The pre-dessert was an exciting combination of parsnip and chicory ice cream, somewhat severe but pleasant earthy flavours reminiscent of coffee. The dessert of honey and pollen was beautifully designed using a honeycomb mold, with drops of scarlet hydromel. The taste was particularly overwhelming in the sabayon, but relieved by the cool, clear-tasting white honey ice cream. A very engaging meal, with some up and downs in balance. Some elements, like pink geranium oil, were too delicate, while others were overshadowing. read more

The ambiance is nice and there is a good amount of seating. However the food quality has significantly decreased since the last time I visited about a year ago. The octopus was overcooked and very chewy and stringy. The rest of the food was good but nothing impressive. The saving grace was the bread and the risotto. read more

Great service, food was great accommodated a large group. Handled multiple allergies with no problem! Loved it!!

At first look, we weren't inspired by the A La carte menu, but much more by the degustation offer. In the end, we had to choose a different offer starting with fried calamari. It fitted well its role of an appetizer, just tasty enough even if it might have better with more spices. The rizzoto with oyster mushrooms as main dish was extremely copious and quite delicious. The beef and French fries was fine but no more than that. I would like to stress out the special offer that our waitress made. Acknowledging the slow service that evening, she asked us to choose some alcohol that would be free of charge. We have all heard of a lack of staff in the hospitality industry but very few restaurants take the extra step of ensuring that the customers are fully satisfied. A small gesture like the one we experienced was a winner for us. The restaurant has on its first floor a lot of spaces here and there plus the large table. This would definitely our best option when we go back as the mezzanine can become very noisy. read more

Service was good. The wine list was vast and varied. We were there on a Wednesday ~5:40pm, so exceptionally early for Montreal standards and the place was pretty empty and tame, but began to fill with chatter and laughing especially at the communal table. The food was the problem. We ordered bread and a cauliflower, truffle and bacon dish. I don't have the opportunity to use "insipid" very often, but it describes the flavour perfectly. We'd planned to order more, but decided to cut our losses and find another place that would better please our palate. Thankfully Montreal and the Plateau area where this place is located is full of places! read more

Decent French bistro. Came to this restaurant with my husband and baby for our last day dinner in Montreal. Ordered two formula that came with 4 dishes for 49 dollars (per formula) - tomato salad&beef tartar, foie gras & ratatouille, octopus&duck and dessert. All the dishes were beautifully presented and served in the right moments. We liked beef tartare, octopus and duck. Dessert was only one kind which was a bit disappointing. read more

Came here for a dinner on a Saturday night. It wasnt a bad experience but I don't think I'd come back and unsure if I'd recommend it to friends. Maybe for locals its good but for tourists, I'd try more of the popular ones. Good crowd--- you sit very intimately next to the people around you. cute dim candlelight dining---Cute and cozy little restaurant. good drinks---The bartender happily made me another drink after I told him my first one wasnt that great. No complaints on whatever he made the next round. okay food---cant remember what we ordered but I think we had a beef tartarte which was prob the one thing I liked the most. expensive prices---As expected, its a french style restaurant. read more

Had to wait 30 minutes for a salad. Asked for a glass of water and there was mold floating on top. Cutlery was dirty. Food tasted like it was frozen and heated in microwave. Stay away unless you enjoy shitty restaurants. read more

Wow super disappointed about chez Victoire last night! Did not even bother staying! We stormed off after 15 minutes! We did not even order as they had nothing on their menu! Service was kindove lame.. everyone running around like chickens with their heads cut off everywhere. The ambiance was real loud and uncomfortable. Theyre regular menu was not available as there was some kind of festival going on called: "MTL à table" and they only had a set menu to chose .. very little selection.. I was so disappointed how can it be on a Saturday night the most busiest of all nights you remove your menu!!!? I came specifically to " déguster " lol the french term to enjoy their roasted cauliflower my favourite item on their menu was not available. So we decided ok lets order up oysters get 18 oysters. They come back after 10 minutes telling us they sold out all their oysters and only have 6 left.. we decided enough is enough.. we came here to enjoy good food and we wont settle and give them our money for food we dont even like ! Really disappointed.. never believed their service and food would go downhill.. they use to be one of the top places ..for many things. read more

Chez Victoire - Set Menu and regular menu unavailable - French Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Wonderful place to dine. The menu was exceptional. Small menu but excellent selection of entrees and mains. Wine selection is superb. They offer a degustation menu with wine pairings that is well worth the $67CAD +$39CAD. read more

We hesitated visiting this spot because we were trying to avoid pricey dinners during our Montreal trip. We walked by this spot several times (a block from our rented apartment), and finally caved. The best meal we had in Montreal! -Went on Sunday night around 8pm; 4 course meal for $30 on Sundays!! - both ordered same courses: mozzarella/tomato/edamame appetizer (mozzarella melts in your mouth!), second course was salmon tartare (salmon and fennel /radish relish was great, bread a bit soggy); 3rd course was wild mushroom risotto (really rich but so freakin' good!); 4th course was dessert , chocolate lava cake (great quality chocolate) Service was impeccable; accidentally brought out 1 of our courses too quickly, so gave us glass of wine in the house! No service like this at home in Miami. Worth it! read more

Chez Victoire - Salmon tartare - French Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Every November, we in Montreal are lucky enough to have the MTL à Table food festival going on. This wonderful event - where restaurants offered a reduced price table d'hôte - is a great opportunity to try a restaurant that you have otherwise not had a chance to try at a price that makes taking a chance more reasonable. Over the years, I have used it as a great way to visit those places that I have wanted to visit but honestly forget about. This year's choice is no exception. I have been aware of Chez Victoire since its opening in 2010 and while it has been on 'the' list for a while, I'll admit to simply forgetting about it year after year. As I looked at the different menus offered, theirs was one that grabbed my wife and I's attention so we made our way down Mont-Royal on a quiet and cold Sunday night to see if the long wait would be worth it. Chez Victoire described itself as a neighbourhood bistro and yeah that description fits well. The space feels like a bistro but more clean and modern, less ornate. The high ceilings and the mezzanine in the back of the room amplify the noise such that, with a full room, the noise level was a little too high ideally. The waiters are dressed in the classic bistro style with the black vest and white shirt and their service is in keeping with a bistro - very smooth, professional and sharp. So far so good but what about the food? Prior to the MTL à Table menu, we decided to try a plate of their house-made charcuterie served with bread, crackers, dijon mustard and olive oil. Lots of variety on the plate and very enjoyable all around. I am also a big fan of grilled bread like they served with it. Coming back to the actual Table d'hôte, my wife and I decided to share the two options available for each part of the 3 part service. The first entrée was braised pork from Beaurivage Farm served with celeriac, butternut squash, ahi amarillo and carob. Very favourable dish - the tender fatty pork pairing very nicely with the earthiness of the squash and celeriac. The second appetizer was quebec whelk served with leeks with leek dressing, yuzu, dill and a goat cheese mousse. Lots of flavour here but weirdly, everything but the whelk came through. Loved the texture of the goat cheese mousse and how it combined with the leeks but that pairing is what comes out as the star. If I hadn't known there was whelk, I wouldn't have known as I tasted the dish. The other more minor issue I had was the leeks at the bottom being served room temp. It adds some crunch but I admit I would have preferred it lukewarm to warm. The mains had a similar split of excellent and alright. First was the braised Lac Brome duck thigh served over celeriac puree, puy lentils and kimchi topped with butterscotch miso butter, pomegranate, walnuts and mint. Lots of components and seems very busy with the mix worked very well. The duck was beautiful in terms of tenderness and flavour. The mix of celeriac, lentils and kimchi provided some earthy hardiness but with a spicy kick and then the butterscotch miso brought the richness that works so well with duck. Loved this dish. The second one was more of a meh - Albacore tuna tataki served with apricots, green beans, carrots, carrot puree with jalapeño and a curry oil. Compared to the other dish, this one just felt fad. The curry oil was only slightly noticeable and the jalapeño not at all so the big punch of the dish didn't show up. The rest was well done but felt underwhelming. As for the dessert, both were excellent. First, a dark chocolate ganache served with malden salt, sunflower seeds, creme fraîche, kumquat and a financier. The richness and creaminess of the ganache was excellent and although my wife didn't love the sour creme fraiche, all of the accent ingredients worked well to pair and contrast with the chocolate. The second dessert was a rice pudding with coconut milk served with kaffir lime, caramelized bananas, spiced rum, citronella and pecans. We both love a good rice pudding so this was an easy sell for us. The addition of the bananas, pecans and rum paired well with the rice and coconut notes of the pudding. So I finally made to Chez Victoire and despite a couple of flat dishes, I can definitely see where the praise for this restaurant comes from. I love the idea of a neighbourhood bistro and the homeyness that comes with that but with the high level of execution and presentation. It is ironic that I finally visited a Plateau bistro only once I left the Plateau but I'm happy to have finally tried it. Definitely worth a try! Cheers! read more

Three #YelpClubdesVins events and I feel fully eligible to write a happy review for Chez Victoire. Definitely five stars wine list. Not your standard one, as an example you can actually try few orange wines if you'd like something different. The wonderful and knowledgeable staff will gladly recommend a wine pairing for your dish. Inventive food menu, small dishes full of surprizes. I'm still dreaming about the tuna tataki I had during the first wine event. The menu changes often and that dream hasn't come true again. The price of the plates may be considered as a little bit high for the small portions, but as high is the quality. My last experiment with the menu, Pomme de terre Gabrielle, paired very well with the red from Domaine St-Jacques, local Quebec wine maker. At first glance the dish may look like potatoes covered with egg white, but in reality it is a nice blend of flavours, including black pudding and roasted chipollini. The room of the bistro is beatiful, the long bar and tall tables arranged in the middle look like a gorgeous place to be from the private area of the second floor. And did I mention how courteous is the service! Five stars out of six! read more

Very solid all-around performance in the Plateau area; my wife and I felt like we were a part of the scene and maybe away from other tourists since this was a relatively busy Friday night meal. We tried the scallops with black pudding, the calamari and the ravioli appetizer, and a lamb shank main dish (we wanted the pork chop, we were told it would be lamb that night, but it still tasted like pork to us!). All pretty tasty, nothing truly amazing, and the wine by the glass prices were close to reasonable. And warm bread served as a starter also worked well. Our server was very attentive and I love any place that lets me book on OpenTable. read more

This place is incredible. My wife and I tried the Sunday prix fixe menu, and everything was amazing. The food is inventive, somehow managing to surprise with every course. It's high end without being pretentious. Portions are generous, ingredients are fresh, and the dishes are made with passion. Service was warm and friendly. I live in NYC, and this restaurant would be a star there. I can't recommend this place enough! read more

Classy ambiance, incredible service and high end food. I'd been drawn to this restaurant for weeks just because of the gorgeous art deco-style painted windows facing the street. Even before I got inside, while standing at the doorway inspecting the menu posted there, some of the evening's guests came out to stand on the street for a cigarette. They raved about the food and assured me I must go in and give it a try. I was not disappointed! The cocktails were good, and my very large scallops seared to perfection. My date had the smoked meat sandwich, which in all honesty was the best in the city that we've found so far. This place is worth the cost, if you're looking for a fancy dinner out. The music was great the entire time, and the lighting perfect. Cozy and comfortable even though we were seated very close to other couples on a romantic date. Oh, and before I forget, IMPECCABLE service. The restaurant was packed to the rafters but we were still attended to like royalty. Just a very high class place, but still with a casual vibe if you don't feel like dressing up. read more

One of the greatest appetizers, good main course, good wine and cocktails, great ambiance, and comfortable booth but slow service. We'd have been drinking more if the server came by more often but well because of that we saved money :) Next time when I go there- I will absolutely go there again, I will definitely order several appetizers and skip the main course. read more

I recommend relaxing into a seat at the bar at Chez Victoire. That way, you can curl your feet up under the stool and chat with the friendly staff, maybe get their recommendations for wine pairings through your meal. That's what we did, anyway, and we had a great meal, with none of the problems with slow service mentioned in other reviews. I really liked the atmosphere, which was comfortable for long, wine-fueled conversations. The oysters were fresh, and the salad of buffalo mozzarella, heirloom tomatoes, edamame, pine nuts, basil, and a sweet balsamic dressing was well balanced. The salmon tartare had a refreshing twist, with rock shrimp popcorn, lime, radishes, little bits of avocado, toasted bread, and wasabi. At first I was missing the little crunchy bread that normally accompanies salmon tartare, but a few bites in I'd forgotten all about boring old bread. A great place for a cozy, low-key soirée à deux. read more

There are somethings in life that are so delicious, so sumptuous, that it's hard to describe, hard to give text to an experience. Hard to give them the proper justice they deserve. Many of these things are food, and while the entire meal at Chez Victoire was one of the best I've ever hard they served a french onion soup the likes of which could only be rivaled by Sense Appeal in Toronto. It's hard to describe the pure bliss it was to taste that soup, but if I were to take a simple stab at why the experience was so amazing I would say this, balls. The french onion soup is a ball, a crouton ball with liquid soup on the inside and on the top of said ball is a thin sliver of gruyere. When you bite into it your mouth instantly becomes the french onion soup bowl. Stunned. Also, I had oysters, gin cocktails, and risotto. All amazing. Get there and try it! read more

Very good quality food, awesome service, a bit pricey but definitely worth it as the portions were quite big and the food is absolutely delicious ! I took the risotto as an entrée and then I shared the three desserts dish with my friend and that was quite an experience !!! The three desserts were DELICIOUS. With three desserts in the same dish, you would expect smaller portions than a regular one dessert dish, but we were served the portions you would get by ordering each dessert separately and that was HUGE, it was a wonderful and very tasty experience! read more

This place is absolutely fantastic. The very best in Montreal. Even my picky boyfriend loves it. The ambience was romantic. We were there for there late night menu. I got the veal liver. Omg! The texture is just stunning. The dish had a great balance. The soup was good. I got chocolate lava cake for dessert. Awesome too! read more

I went for a friend's birthday on a saturday night at 8pm. We were a party of eight and despite that the service was good. Because I had a late lunch and wasn't very hungry for dinner I only got the Bloody Cajun (bourbon, clamato, chipotle, BBQ spices), the tuna tataki and shared the mozzarella for two people. Everything was delicious.I really enjoyed the mozzarella and the croutons but I didn't eat the peas or the radishes that were also in the bowl. Three of the guys in the group had entrees and shared the AAA Angus Prime Rib 1kg aged 45 days (which is good for 2 or 3 people). It came with bone marrow and seasonal mushrooms & vegetables. It looked so good. It was a lot of food! I enjoyed the food so much that I wanted to go back to try their late night menu so I went back three weeks later on a saturday night after 10 pm. Their late night menu is so worth it!! For $25 you get either 1 entree and 1 main or 1 main and 1 dessert. I had the bloody cajun again because I liked it so much the first time. I had the bison tartare which is 5$ extra. The portion was small but it was delicious. I think its worth the extra $5. You have the choice to eat it with bread or crouton. The olive oil that they give you was so good that I was dipping my crouton in the oil and then putting the tartare on top of the crouton. The tartare was placed in a clam shell which I thought was a very cute presentation. I then had the AAA Angus beef which came with fries and salad. This dish was an extra 3$. The beef was cooked the way I like it and the fries were very good. I didn't eat much of the salad.There was way too much of it. My date had the eggplant meatballs. It was good but not very filling for him. To me it tasted like spaghetti minus the pasta. We shared the Affogato dessert which consisted of vanilla ice cream, aero chocolate, espresso and salted caramel. I'm not big on dessert but it was delicious! It was like eating a coffee crisp chocolate bar with ice cream. I like this restaurant. Its a good date restaurant and also good for dinner with friends. I recommend it!! The food and drinks are good and affordable! read more

Went here on the 4th of July. Very modern, hip French restaurant. The salads that we got were bomb. Very yummy dressing. The burger that I ordered was great, just a little sweeter than I would like. It reminded me of Lucille's pulled pork sandwich( which is not really a bad thing). My bf's brother enjoyed his hanger steak. I believe we had a cheaper menu since we came in later that night. Overalld a good dinner experience at this place. read more

Actual rating : 3.5 Food : very good. The flavors and the cut of meats were very well selected and well prepared. I had the pork and it can out extremely tender. Good wine list. Service : we were seated up top and I did feel like we were somewhat forgotten ; we had to flag the waiters. Decor/ambience : just meh. There was nothing special with it, TVs kind of killed it for me. Overall : yeah the food was good, but I expected something more considering the prices. I don't know what it is but it just fell short of something. Not a bad place at all, but not my first choice. read more

Most exceptional place in one of the loveliest and upbeat areas of Montreal. Non-chalant and chic atmosphere even late at night on a Thursday (the day we had late dinner), most courteous personnel, epicurean-savvy. The menu and wine list were easy to navigate, yet hard to get through - so many competing& compelling options :) We ended up with planche de charcuteries maison, pave de saumon sauvage, bonbons de foie gras de canard & cassolette de champignons de saison, along with a Pinot Noir from Closson Chase, Prince Edward county. A culture gem, most definitely ;) -------- -------- Just noticed that Alexandre Gosselin, Chez Victoire's chef, is competing in Gold Medal Plates 2011 http://goldmedalplates.com/c_montreal.html GOOD LUCK! :)) read more

I had a really nice experience here last night. We came at around 10:15 and the restaurant was nearly empty. They have a nice terrasse but we opted for seats inside as it was a bit chilly. Their after 22h menu includes either an entrée and a main or a main and a dessert for 25$. I ordered the "Salade de tomates & Mozarella di buffala" as an entrée and loved it. It was fresh, colourful and exploding with flavour. For the main, I had the "Ravioli au ricotta". It was ravioli in a buttery rich sauce with crab legs. My description may not sound so appetizing but it was honestly delicious. Though french restaurants are famous for their small portions, I was pretty full after the meal. My boyfriend had the smoked meat sandwich with fries and salad for a main and the chocolate molton cake for dessert (+4$). The main was a huge portion and all very good. The cake was a bit underwhelming but I will admit that I am not a huge chocolate fan. The waitress recommended a white wine that turned out to be amazing. Unfortunately she told me that it is not sold at saq :( The ambiance here is great for a date or a drink out with friends. It was nice to be able to be classy on a budget (after 10pm). The service was great as well. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the beautiful dishes. read more

One of my favourite places on Mount Royal for a drink with a friend when I want to talk quietly and put delicious things in my mouth. The wine list is excellent and the staff are super informed but not condescending, they are excited to talk at any level about the wine their sommelier/owner has selected. They are also just generally super friendly and chill. The food here can be too pricey for me for a casual evening if I'm really hungry, but I've also had delicious filling amazing vegetarian dishes here that seemed totally appropriate in their pricing, so depends a bit on the menu that day I guess. The roast cauliflower is one of my favourite things ever, and allllll the desserts are daydream-worthy. read more

I never miss a meal at chez victoire when I visit Montreal about 4 x year. I know a good restaurant for my tastes when I cannot decide easily on what to order because I want to try everything. Unique and well balanced combinations make for memorable plates. The service has always been excellent, with charming knowledgeable waiters, and I ask a lot of questions about preparation. They take the time to explain the dishes, far better than at other nearby popular restaurants. If you like eclectic recipes that work beautifully, oohs and ahhs at every bite, fresh oysters, and reasonable prices for artisanal, carefully designed offerings, chez victoire is worth seeking out. read more

Came here on one of our first weekends living in the city and loved it. Dark lighting, nice atmosphere with trendy clientele. Had oysters and beef tartare to start and then a pork-based entree.

We went on a Sunday evening, when they have a crazy good deal with three courses for $22. Each plate we tried - and with a table of four we tried nearly everything available - was delectable and exciting. The contrast of the corn in the lobster bisque was mindblowing. The service was top notch. I don't know how they manage to pull it off, but it was full when we went so I imagine the great deals coupled with the volume makes it possible. So nice to see a restaurant living up to its potential! read more
