I had wanted to treat a friend to a dinner and a show while I was in town ahead of her birthday later this month, and the original restaurant she had chosen fell through (we mistaken the genre of the restaurant). With 1.5 hours before our burlesque show down the street at the Wiggle Room, I remembered I had bookmarked Le Majestique and that it was 1.5 blocks from both Schwartz and the venue! We made it over from St Denis and were graciously seated in the window - perfect lighting for selfies and food photos! It was happy hour, so we indulged in oysters (NB and NS I believe), as well as their scallop on half shell; this was so delicious with the hazelnut oil and fermented beets and butter - we pretty much drank the liquid afterwards (unapologetically - I had it dripping down my chin I think). Next was their special of the day, ricotta and mushroom filled anglotti with ceps, smoked matsutake and another mushroom, garnished with shavings of truffle and Parmesan. This was earthy and warming and delicious. For me it was fall. I wished it was on the permanent menu! We also shared the prime NY steak with green sauce and baby heirloom turnips. To end the meal we shared a pudding chomeur aged Louis d'or cheese. This was a creamy bread pudding- like dessert with grated Louis d'or on top. We enjoyed this - I love restaurants that showcase stellar local ingredients and Le Majestique does this well! If I could spend a month eating my way through Plateau Mont Royal and Little Portugal I would gladly do it. Bookmarked for future visits. Thank you for a wonderful night Le Majestique! read more

Food: The food and drinks were 5/5 amazing! Ordered a dozen oysters, duck risotto, focaccia, and pinot! I normally don't like risotto but it was super yum and flavorful from the duck. Service: Very accommodating with us wanting to sit outside. Ambiance: The weather was beautiful so sitting outside was so cute, I will say the space is a bit tight. I highly recommend! read more

Love, Love, Love this place! Very informal setting with fantastic food. The attention to detail with their food was amazing. Dylan was our bartender and he made our experience feel like we were the only people in the restaurant. If you are in Montreal this is the place! Seriously great... Paul read more

Best oysters ever! My dad had their duck risotto which was great but he wished the duck wasn't as blended in with the risotto. If it was a little less thoroughly combined it would've been a 10/10. I had their PIE oysters and I ended up ordering an additional 9! Their cosmos was good, nothing spectacular, but their non alcoholic sparkling lemonade was awesome! Regarding service I'd say it's okay. A little slow at taking orders and completing orders. Took me a while to get cocktail sauce. They could've been kinder but I think it's just a matter of which servers you talk to. Overall it was a great first dining experience in Montreal and one of my favorite overall. read more

Checked out Le Majestique for a couple of drinks. It was packed on a late Friday night. Impressive that they stay open to 3am daily. They're sister restaurants to Bar Darling. Tried a couple of ciders including rosie ($11.00), camerises ($11.00) and milton ($9.00 pint). Pretty generic ciders. read more

We ate here last year and I forgot to review it then so this won't be full of specifics but my overall impressions. My husband and I are both foodies and have eaten all over the world. I remember not being able to find much on the menu I wanted to eat. He loved his food. It was LOUD. We got to sit in the window which was cool. The restaurant was crazy crowded. We do not speak French but our server was nice to us but I had the distinct feeling of sitting with the cool kids but not being part of the crowd. I wouldn't go again just based on the food but my husband would. read more

Literally one of my favorite meals during my most recent trip. We were a walk in because we are so bad at making reservations ahead of time - desolee! So glad that staff was able to seat us at the bar because the restaurant was mostly full. It's got this like old pirate ship kind of feel - looks like repurposed wood, a lot of lamp lights and generally a good time. I'm pretty sure that their menu changes from season to season. While we were there, we got the oysters, the bourgots, THE 12 INCH HOTDOG, and a caramel-y pasta dish. I also got a glass of white. The food was FANTASTIC. I also saw someone order a whole boat of oysters and temporarily felt envy, to which my friend said there's literally 2 of us. No way we can eat a small boat's worth of oysters. I really liked the vibe of this restaurant. Staff are bilingual, which always makes things easier when you're traveling. It's also opened late. read more

Trendy spot in Montreal with mystical themed decor. Has a small menu with more small plates but high end items such as oysters, risotto with duck confit, and bison tartare. I enjoy the homemade miso honey butter that came with the grilled focaccia. Another bonus is its opened daily until 3AM, so you can get a trendy bite on a sunday night if desired read more

If you're visiting Montréal and want a taste of the city's food scene, this is a great place to start. The atmosphere is lively, a little eclectic, and full of energy without feeling over the top. The menu feels thoughtfully put together, with dishes that are refined but served in a relaxed, unpretentious setting. You'll see all kinds of people dining here, which adds to the charm. Sharing several plates is definitely the way to go. The oysters were incredibly fresh, the steak was cooked perfectly, and the risotto was rich and flavorful. They also have a solid wine selection and a few excellent beers. It turned into one of our favorite meals in Montréal. read more

If you're hungry and out late, Le Majestique may be one of very few options available to help. While they are primarily a bar, they serve delicious food. The menu was a bit sparse. But everything we ordered was yummy. read more

Excellent vibes, food and drinks! I would recommended this place, my wife loved it. Oysters were great, and a great variety of options on the menu. The restaurant is well decorated, and the waitstaff were friendly and knowledgeable. read more

Good balance of quality food and lively atmosphere. Staff were friendly and attentive throughout the meal.

Great atmosphere and really good cocktails. The small plates were flavorful, though portions felt a bit on the smaller side.

Amazing flavors all around. House focaccia was delicious and definitely a must. Oysters were fresh and even better with the happy hour deal (5-7pm)! For the mains, my friend and I tried the truffle risotto and the chicken liver. Risotto was rich and flavorful with a generous serving of mushrooms - would order again. The chicken liver was also good but so rich that we could only finish half of the dish. Great service, courteous and friendly staff, and cozy ambiance. Very high on the list of places to re-visit next time I'm in Montreal~ read more

Have been several times over the past several years, as well as to their sister restaurant, Bar Darling, which is also awesome and worth the visit. Menu is different, decor is related but also different. Limited but excellent menu - eclectic, carefully curated, and delicious. Open quite late, which is unfortunately uncommon these days. Before COVID, MANY places were open til midnight, and even two or three am. Now, choices after midnight are limited. Service has always been top notch and I dig the funky, offbeat almost steam-punk vibe of the decor. Highly recommended oysters and whelks, which I had never heard of before but were delicious! read more

Le Majestique should have 5 stars. Every single thing that we ate was amazing. The great thing is that plates are shareable and try as I might; I can't single out an item as being the best because they all were fantastic. You really can't go wrong. We had the Cornish hen meal, the welks (aka snails), the truffle gnocchi, the mackerel spread with house made croutons, and oysters that were 2.50 during happy hour. I was surprised at how delicious that mackerel spread was, we all really enjoyed it. The gnocchi was pillowy soft and full of flavor, and the welks didn't taste like escargot but rather like squid. It was our friends first time trying welks and she loved it. I know when you think of visiting a bistro while in Montreal the usual places that spring to mind are Le deux garmins or L'express but this should definitely be on your list as the food is amazing. Service was exceptional, it was loud though and crowded so be prepared for that. Otherwise enjoy the great food and service. read more

The atmosphere of this place is great. Cool vintage toys and cans adorn the walls and the seating is intimate without feeling like you're sitting on top of each other. The service was pretty quick and the drinks were delightful. The portions are quite small for the price and you'll probably need to supplement with the house bread or fries. We opted for the latter. When I tell you these fries are among the best I've ever had, it's no understatement. I would go back just for the fries. read more

Our experience at Le Majestique was the highlight of the entire vacation. Upon walking into the venue, I immediately knew that we were in for a treat. The atmosphere cannot be beat by any other restaurant in Montreal. Customer service exceeded our expectations; our bartenfer Raf was friendly, personable, & intellectual. We were blessed to come in on a slower night to have time to converse with them, & Raf was kind enough to offer us recommedations for museums & more to enhance our stay. The oysters & focaccia were unbelievable, & the cocktails were great too. Thank you to the staff of Le Majestique for exceeding expectations & providing an incredible dining experience for our first trip to Montreal. read more

We popped in here in a warm day and ordered the oysters that were on special for happy hour and the chicken liver mousse. We were the only ones inside at the time so the service was great. The chicken liver mousse was something that I had never had before and it was so delicious. The oysters were fresh. I hope to make it back here some day. read more

If you want the same-o, same-o, then go to a same-o-, same-o place. And if you don't mind being reminded of the classic, 'From Dusk Till Dawn's bar (at least to me, this looked liked it), then come to Majestique in the Plateau Mont-Royal area if you're feeling an itch for kitsch on your night out- ways away from Old Montréal tourist spots. Majestique only rolls as walk-in- so if you want to pop in here for 8pm dinner and it's filled elbow-to-elbow, wait a bit. The host(ess) might suggest you go 'next door' to Urbanista (another restaurant) several doors down actually while you wait for your table here. Once here, you'll pass the heavy entrance curtain, escorted to your table then really take in the chock-full of 60s 'stuff' Majestique has all around their walls. Where was Majestique our first time we came to Montréal in '16??? Obviously, we didn't look hard enough plus we stayed mostly in Old Montréal during our first time. Service was incredibly nice here and so was the food. So nice to ventured out of Old Montréal. These folks specialize in serving something you've eaten 'traditionally' elsewhere in a completely different feel here. All of our small plates were interesting- but our Seafood Tower scored nicely. Instead of the common seafood tower, Majestique fills theirs with several types of seafood individually served and seasoned. Between the chunky diced salmon to the Clams, to scallops, oysters, etc- it was very tasty. So was the Pear+Maitake+Chèvre cheese opener. We were taken aback when we found out this place doesn't serve Escargots- instead, what's offered here are Bourgots that that have a conch-like texture. Good. Just different. If you want to get your kitsch fix with the locals, good food at an upbeat spot, why not here? read more

Very good overall. The only problem is between 4 and 5 PM. They only offer for dishes on the menu. The whole menu looks great, but we were not told that they have a limited menu at 4 o'clock when we came. That's why four instead of five stars. We had the beet salad, which was fresh and good. The oysters were small, but very good. Drumroll... The best dish was the mackerel salad, which was like tuna salad, but with mackerel. It had a little kick and was absolutely delicious. They serve it on toast points. The ambience is eclectic and quirky with a lot of vintage items. This fits perfectly with the many vintage shops on that street. read more

Great meal in an eclectic vibe. Shared a bunch of Canadian tapas including fresh oysters, tomato salad, bread, whelks and the 12" hotdog. All delicious. We did order the smoked mackerel spread (it was on the bill) but it never came. The waiter felt so bad he tried to give it to us complimentary but we told him it wasn't a problem and not to worry. The cocktails/mocktails were also very good. I would come back here for the fresh and creative dishes that change with the seasons. Everything was wonderful and we were not overly full, giving us room to fit in a Schwartz smoked meat sandwich for our whirlwind trip to Montreal. read more

I went for the first time a few months ago after loving their sister restaurant, Le Darling, and was not disappointed. Drinks are a little pricey, but the oysters were great.

Incredible food-- as others have shared, particularly the foccacia (didnt expect opening bread to take the day) Service was fine, busy, but it felt french rather than north American.

A very unassuming spot in Downtown Montreal. Read good reviews and wanted a place that served Espresso Martinis and French food. What we ordered: Whelks - highly highly recommended. MUST GET Oysters - pretty good. slightly bring. fresh, clean, nice. Shrimp Pasta (special) - bigger dish. creamy. salty, but good. Beef and Tuna Tataki - honestly they tasted the same and they were just ok. Beet Salad - nice, slightly sweet palate cleanser. Espresso Martinis - creamy sweet, but small. All in all, we had a nice pleasant time here and would definitely come back again if only for the whelks, espresso martinis, and oysters. read more

the food and drinks were excellent. However, we were very disappointed with the wait staff. The greeter was very rude from the moment we walked in; we later overheard him mocking our order and the fact that we speak English. I understand that U.S. relations with Canada are not the best right now, but how we were treated was unacceptable. Especially considering the hefty price tag that went along with this meal. Good food and cute place, but I would recommend avoiding if you are an English speaking tourist. I wanted to enjoy this place, but the treatment we received absolutely ruined our night. read more

Vibes, service, and food all 10/10 at Le Mastique. My friend and I shared a few bites and had a couple of very well made drinks. I would highly recommend if you're in the area. The oysters were fresh and the chicken liver mousse was delicious! read more

I need to give a shoutout to my partner for picking this spot. It was one of those nights where we were tired and indecisive; and I was cranky from walking in cute/painful shoes. This kitchy little bar on St. Laurant had everything we needed - unique menu, good drinks, and friendly staff. We had some oysters, smoked mackeral spread, fries... and something else that I can't recall. It was such a lovely time that I only have one picture :) I save my 5 stars for truly special spots - and Le Magestique has earned it! read more

Un restaurant très animé où il vaut mieux réserver! Nous y sommes allés un jeudi soir et c'était déjà plein à notre arrivée. Les tables sont assez proches, cela donne des occasions de discuter avec les voisins! Mes amis ont mangé des huîtres, j'ai goûté la mousse de foie en apéro et c'était tellement délicieux que j'y retournerai juste pour ça. Bien présentée, et agrémentée de manière originale! J'ai continué par une salade d'endives et ça aussi c'était délicieux car c'est pas un plat courant au QC et les amateurs savent apprécier. Le décor est très éclectique et joyeux. Des choses à regarder aux 4 coins de la salle. Notre serveur a été très sympa. J'y retournerai! read more

Terrace is open for the season! Great location on St Laurent, lower plateau. The terrace sits right on the street, but has secure walls. The menu has a variety of small dishes: oysters, chicken liver parfait, meat, vegetables. I believe the menu rotates over the season. My friend and I shared a few dishes: - French fries: classic, delicious, salty and crispy - chicken liver parfait: it has a crème brûlée top and was really amazing! - Accras: little fried balls of shrimp, they were so hot and tasty! - Salmon dish: lots of nice textures and freshness - Topinambour: interesting artichoke dish There were also some nice cocktails and wine options. I had a whiskey earl grey beverage that was not too sweet. Looking forward to going back soon! read more
