    Absolutely amazing experience here. The staff here was very welcoming and gave great recommendations! The steak was one of the best I’ve ever had and the presentation of the food was beautiful. If in Montréal again I would definitely come back!

    The ambiance at this restaurant is beautiful. It's nice for a date night because the lighting in there is dimmed and very relaxing, and the cocktails are delicious. However, the restaurant is really small inside, and if you have a big bag or winter jacket on, you will bump into other tables or people sitting down. More than one server comes to the tables, which can be confusing when asking for something you need (napkins, water, etc.). - the food is quite basic for the expensive prices they are selling them for. - I got the beef Bourguignon and it was very salty, and the bread on the side was burnt. - I wanted a red wine but couldn't choose between the two; when I asked the waiter what he would suggest, he brought me two of them for tastings and charged me full price for both that was a tester (shot). - There were a lot of 'MP' abbreviations on the menu that I didn't understand. I wanted a red snapper fish but didn't have the price for it on the menu. I was told it was a market price, and he couldn't give me a price until the fish was completed and they sized it. I asked if he could give me an idea of how much, and he said around $70 or more for 1 fish. - the smaller plates are not that filling, so if you're hungry, budget well in advance to buy more, or I would advise having a snack before heading over there.

    Great location and the service was incredible! Our appetizers were the star of the night - the lamb was cooked perfectly and the bluefin tuna melted in your mouth. The parm truffle fries are a must try and the specialty drinks were SO good!! Our server recommended all three and they did not disappoint. One thing that was disappointing was the steak. Considering the restaurant is promoting themselves as a steakhouse with prime cuts of meat, we were quite disappointed with the NY Cut we ordered. It was very chewy and lacked flavour. We were happy to have ordered the béarnaise sauce to go with it, since it added a lot to the steak. Overall a good restaurant, would go back to try the other menu items, except the steak.

    The experience was fantastic. We sat at the bar for dinner and the bartender was very charismatic, very engaging and knowledgeable about the menu. He took care of our every need. The location in Old Town is beautiful. Great ambience and super food. Oysters were fresh and tasty, steak was lovely. All in all very good and we will be back.

    Went there for a Valentine’s Day dinner. Despite the late hour to have dinner. The food was really good ! I loved the escargots and the oysters. The mussels were nice and curried flavored, very generous size portion. The flank steak was okay. It wasn’t wow. The drinks were strong and good as well.

    J’ai aimé la salade et les crevettes en entrée. La personne qui m’accompagnait a demandé un filet mignon bien cuit. Je comprend que ce n’est pas commun toutefois elle aime la cuisson de cette façon et comme ont dit ,les gout ne se discutent pas. Bien entendu c’est important d’informer le client qu’un filet mignon bien cuit risque d’être caoutchouteux mais pas au point de lui parler comme si elle ne connaissait rien à la viande. Merci et bonne journée

    What a hidden gem! I had a perfectly seasoned tuna tartare with a private import white that was recommended. My companion had the steak frites which also was a great choice. But the real standout was our server... He was the ideal blend of knowledgeable, present but discrete. Will definitely be back.

    Tried this new steakhouse in the Old Port for my birthday and was not disappointed! Impeccable service, DELICIOUS cocktails, and possibly the best filet mignon I have ever had. We also had the bone marrow and it was amazing. Definitely try this place for your next birthday or anniversary. 10/10

    Great experience at Le Butterfly! Food was great, cocktails were super tasty! Our table wasn’t ready for our reservation time so the manager offered us a round of drinks on the house, and the bartender offered us a shot! Kal the bartender was great company! Food was also good. Great restaurant for a date night or dinner with friends. Highly recommend !
