About the restaurant

This charming and intimate restaurant serves a generous and creative fresh market cuisine, cheerfully prepared by chef-owners Marc De Canck and Olivier de Montigny. At La Chronique, the pleasures of the table are always front and centre. But in addition to the delights it serves up, the restaurant is also known for its extensive wine list, welcoming décor and impeccable service. Little wonder it's been considered "essential eating" in Montreal since 1995.

La Chronique gave us a night to remember! The food was absolutely incredible- the Artic Char with carrots four ways was possibly the best meal I've ever had. Our waiter, Luca, was so personable and funny. The food on it's own was an experience, but he gave us a fun, memorable night we're still talking about days later.

Wow! Garde Manger should be on every foodies list of restaurants to hit in Montreal. We sat at the bar and had the five course tasting menu. First two courses were lobster tempura bites with caviar and scallop crudo…both amazing. Next raw bar platter with the usuals as well as a sturgeon pate that was incredible. Halibut, deer venison and the star of the night the pork chop were the mains. Sam was our server and he steered us in all the right directions. We’ll definitely be back!
