    The good… and the not so good, i.e. the REALITY. Last evening my wife and I had the menu dégustation for 2 (plus wine pairing for 1) at Maison Boulud. While the service was exceptional and the presentation of each of the 7 courses equally impressive, the overall TASTE and culinary experience fell surprisingly short of our expectations. Most of the dishes were bland and definitely needed some additional seasoning or perhaps …salt? The few “hot” dishes arrived lukewarm and rapidly cooled. Understandably, the small dishes require just a few bites but the warm dishes needed to be served hotter and nothing “wowed” us. The wines pairing was disappointing. The wines, all but one white, were not necessarily complementary to the dishes and a few had an unpleasant taste. The wine presentation was difficult to understand. We are English speaking Americans, and while the sommelier did her best to speak in English, she spoke so softly that it was almost impossible to hear the detailed explanation for each wine. Another disappointment was the lack of written description of the 7 courses. The server, although very polite and appropriate, spoke in such a low volume with a quick description of each intricate course upon delivery, we had no ability to recall the intricacy of the ingredients. We eventually asked for a written version of the menu, the server kindly obliged, and presented it at the end of the meal. It would’ve been helpful before we ordered or certainly by the time the meal began service, to have access to the interesting components of each dish. Overall the expensive tasting menu experience at Boulud was unsatisfactory as our total for the meal was $684 including tax/tip…and at that price, it’s hard to recommend it.

    Booked a week in advance with a request to sit in a particular hall, on arrival was taken to the special chefs table with a window into the kitchen. Impeccable service from all the staff, attention to details, signed by chef and general manager card, special gift, food by NYC standards deserves 2 or even 3 Michelin stars. Thank you Maison Boulud

    We went for our 17 year old’s birthday and had the tasting menu. She received a hand written card from the chef at the beginning and they added an amuse bouche course to the tasting menu. She felt very grown up and special. The meal was excellent and it was nicely paced with attentive wait staff. They were flexible with our youngest son making him a burger and fries. We sat by the garden which is quieter than the main area and allowed for conversation and a nice view.

    J'y ai été en couple avec mon épouse. Il y a un service de valet à l'entrée du Ritz (porte à côté). L'accueil au resto était charmant et très personnalisé. Nous avons trouvé le restaurant tout à fait superbe. On a pris le menu dégustation. La dame qui nous a servi connaissait très bien les mets, et le service était impeccable. La nourriture était presque parfaite. L'exécution, les combinaisons, les textures et la présentation étaient extraordinaires. Les goûts des plats étaient très bon, mais pas très relevé (venant de foodies qui aiment les mets relevés ou audacieux). La sommelière a été d'une grande aide pour choisir un très bon vin (un Gamay). Très belle carte des vins. J'y retournerai pour explorer plus le menu à la carte.

    Do yourself a favour and never do breakfast at Maison Boulud. I had the Farmers Breakfast, which would be an appropriate name if said subject was a failed farmer suffering from malnourishment. My meal consisted of 2 poached eggs, no sauce, 3 slabs of mediocre ham, and a grand total of 5 half-potatoes of the baby kind. That is 2.5 full small potatoes (you know the ones you can pop into your mouth with one bite). The quality of ingredients is also questionable since when you pass by the kitchen you can see open bags of gadoua bread. Hardly justifification for a 37 dollar meal.

    Excellent food and ambience and most important the service and the excellent knowledge of the sommelier. The team from the entrance till we left were incredibly pleasant. The food quality, portion and presentation should be qualified to top Michelin star if the Montreal is include in the Michelin list of cities. Thank you Chef Boulud.

    It’s certainly fine dining and the ambience is very nice as well as the service. With that being said, the menu isn’t very well curated, it tried a bit too hard. The bread isn’t warm, the butter is cold.

    My boyfriend and I went for brunch on a Sunday. The valet service was unavailable, since it was full. Luckily, we managed to find parking on the adjacent street. They have a coat check, which is nice, and at our table they also offer a hook for the purse. The service was great (very friendly), albeit not as quick as I would have thought for such a high-end restaurant (we had to ask to get more water, for example). The restaurant looks great, no surprise there, and it's suitable for dates and friendly gatherings. The food is delicious, the price tag for the main menu is as expected for a fancy place (60$ for 2-service and 70$ for 3-service). The cocktails were pricier than usual, but the one I took (Coctel 1867 for 23$) was excellent. All in all, great experience.

    Went for brunch & was not disappointed. Was a snowy Sunday so kind of quiet but more patrons came in after 1:30pm. Excellent service but found the food was good but not outstanding as some reviewers had stated. Decent price for what was offered. They have a nice solarium that is probably enjoyed more in summertime as it overlooks a garden.
