A classic Plateau French bistro opened in 1980, famous for its steak tartare and bone marrow, open daily until late.
Opened in 1980 on Rue Saint-Denis, this legendary French bistro is described by RestoMontreal as an icon of the Plateau district and is also featured in the Michelin Guide. The menu sticks to classics: steak tartare with fries, bone marrow, duck confit, and Toulouse sausage with mashed potatoes, with complimentary jars of pickles on the tables. It is often packed even on winter weekdays, so booking in advance is highly recommended. Open until late, it is perfect for a meal after a late-night event. Prices are quite reasonable for a French bistro of this caliber, with the steak tartare priced around CAD 33-36.
