    Duo salmon and beef tartare
    Mary H.

    $1 oysters everyday! I should be giving 5* just based on that but truth is the food is also decent. Went there for the oyster fest $10 for a dozen oysters and an alcoholic drink. That's a pretty sweet deal! Once there, we also tried their duo of beef and salmon tartare. Presentation was really nice but the tartare lacked a bit of seasoning. They bring you their variety of hot sauces so you can adjust to your liking. We also ordered their chocolate chip cookie with ice cream and it was warm and cheewy. The decor of the place is also pretty nice. I would go back to try other items on their menu.

    I have to say :WOW WOW WOW!!! I am speechless! Service at this restaurant is PURE BLISS! The level of service I had last night at this resto was beyond compare ! I really have to give a lot of kuddos to the entire staff! They were so quick and responsive to everything I requested. Food came out so fast one after the other. The drinks are amazing just wish they had more options for cocktails such as frozen cocktail drinks Food: ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! We came on a Thursday night when they had their 1$ oyster special we ended up ordering 36 oysters! Ahhh they were so big and succulent ! They were shucked with great finesse ! Overall, i.came here with low expectations and they definitely changed my entire experience!! They're awesome i recommend this amazing resto to any oyster fanatic hehe Yummy !!! Writing this is so difficult as it forces me to crave more of their amazing food !! 100% recommend and will definitely be back.

    Banana cheesecake in a mason jar... Yum

    Loved the atmosphere , cool people . Music not too loud . There was good looking and courteous staff... We ordered cheese steak spring rolls with French onion soup for a starter... The spring rolls were AH-mazing...the soup however lacked cheese and was a bit burned in the toast region....it was not horrible though.... Mains were Pulled pork Mac n cheese and short ribs with mash My bf liked his short ribs and the bite I had was pretty tender... But alas the no cheese tuna casserole like Mac and cheese was disappointing... I ate what I could ...:0( Then not having cocktails we decided dessert was in order.... Half baked cc cookie with ice cream ( that the bring bubbling to your table... And a teeny weeny banana cheesecake in a teeny mason jar with toffee and whipped cream... Both were delish and the lil bit of banana cake was Devine! The 4 stars we're because I ordered the wrong thing and was sure the only bad part was the casserole no cheese Mac and cheese :0( so 3.5 stars !

    Cookie with ice cream

    Favourite place for having a great time with your friends or family either! Friendly staff, excellent service and food. Totally recommended to you all

    Great food, great ambiance, great concept. You need to experience it in order to say that u love it or hate it. Menu: changes everyday since the cook goes to the market and picks out everything fresh ( if ur lucky u'll go on a day that they have the oyster bar) Wine: Canadian wines only 40$-120$ So far I've enjoyed every meal that I've had there and had a blast with my friends. Give it a try and maybe u'll fall in love too...with the place.

    Got to try some delicious food during my short weekend trip to Montreal Quebec…read more A friend organized a lunch for everyone before we all headed to the airport and funny enough this restaurant was in the hotel my friend and i stayed at. The restaurant was super quiet when we went as it was a Monday afternoon when most people were probably at work. The interior was quite elegant very clean and royalty looking. The service was 10/10. Waiter was very attentive and we could tell he paid attention to detail. He gave great food recommendations and definitely had knowledge of what's on the menu. Now as for how the food and prices were? Prices i'd say are pretty standard and reasonable. The squash soup was so yum and comforting. It had a puree texture to it. Good serving size. I would order it again! We obviously had to have some mimosas and yes we paired it with orange juice. The duck confit may have been a bit too much for me. Large portion and i couldn't even finish half of it. But it wasn't dry and the veggies had a nice crunch and the lentils were very filling and healthy. The flavour notes all went together but i'd definitely say the dish was more on the healthier side. The chicken supreme on the other hand .. although healthy it was still cheesy and buttery. Considering it was chicken breast it didn't even taste dry so i definitely appreciated that. The risotto paired with it was the star of the show! The restaurant takes resos online and they do have brunch on the weekends, happy hour menu looks promising. If i'm ever in town again and in the area i'd want to try their happy hour or chacuterie spread!

    We were traveling most of the day and exhausted, debated room service or going downstairs, we were…read morepleasantly surprised at how good the food and service are. (Hotel restaurants, can be good/bad) We were definitely not dressed up which I was worried about but it wasn't an issue, we started with beef carpaccio and charcuterie, the pate was absolutely amazing as were all the cured meats. The beef carpaccio, was for me a little bland, I would have hit it with a touch of salt, but once you got a piece th at had balsamic drizzle it really opened it up and changed my mind. (I wish there was a little more of the balsamic. My husband had the Cornish hen, and I had the filet mignon, both were absolutely amazing, I even stole a little of his Bleu cheese for my steak. Steak was cooked perfectly, the sides were amazing. Our server was on point, his name was Pedro, I had asked him to send out a dessert privately and it was our 1 year anniversary, even though we were not dressed for the occasion as we were both exhausted from travel, We will probably be in for lunch tomorrow!

But before even checking in, we had to walk through Bar George ~ and instantly knew we wanted to eat there. We were lucky enough to grab a last-minute reservation, and Julien took a good care of us throughout the evening. His recommendation of the Beef Wellington was spot on (it's already one of our favorite dishes), but this was hands down the best we've ever had. I ordered the lobster risotto, which was excellent with just the right amount of spice. My son had the 10 oz striploin steak with homemade fries (chips), and it was absolutely delicious. I also loved the Canadian touch of coarse salt on the steak, plus the option to choose between Béarnaise or peppercorn sauce. Julien also mentioned their pastry chef placed second in a NY competition, and the desserts absolutely lived up to that reputation. We tried the pineapple and coconut pavlova and the "lick me hazelnut" ~ both beautifully presented and incredibly delicious. We also ordered iced coffee and a latte, and noticed something interesting: this was the second place where we found Canadian coffee to be smooth and mild ~ such a nice change from the often bitter, over-roasted American coffee. Yes, dinner was a bit steep ($300+), but it was worth every penny. Between the rich history, stunning design, outstanding service, and unique cuisine, I would highly recommend Bar George. I would absolutely love to come back!!

We were hungry and it was happy hour. So we may have went a little crazy, ordering a few of the cones du jour - octopus, shrimp, and beef (octopus absolutely delicious), ceviche chino Latino, general boa, and pollo chi jua Kai. For our main we shared the Chaufa Especial, a delicious fried rice with an omelette on top. Drinks were also on happy hour. We had a great IPA on tap. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting or living in Montreal. Top notch atmosphere, delicious food, and an awesome waitstaff. Special shout out to the animated bartender, I will say someone loves his job. (Sorry I forgot photos).

    Great service! Great ambiance!…read moreGREAT COCKTAILS! And strange food.. I had the chicken which was neither Chinese nor what I'd call Peruvian. It did not come with crispy rice, just steamed, and two little chicken thighs and some rice for 28 bucks seemed steep to me for the experience and how it felt in there. I didn't have but saw the ceviche being prepared and it looked pretty awesome so, maybe, this was just not to my taste. I would try again though, because it was interesting and the service made it awesome, even if just for a cocktail!
