La Raclette
1059 Gilford Street | Website
Not to get too cheesy about it, but when it comes to a fun fondue fun ‘do, La Raclette is the best you can get. This stalwart Plateau Mont-Royal icon will get you dipping into a bevy of rich Swiss cuisine, topped off with the sorbet du jour.
Cabotins
4821 Sainte-Catherine Street East | Website
This charming resto is as quirky and creative in its recycled-cool décor as it is in its cuisine. Situated in a former clothing store, the menu will set tongues salivating with skewers of three-month aged Wagyu beef from Marieville, with white wine and Montréal steak spices.
Restaurant La Rose des Sables
1815 Beaubien Street East | Website
A cozy Tunisian treasure, this resto will have your belly dancing with delight with an exotically festive North African menu including gargoulette lamb with a side of vegetable couscous. And afterwards, of course, a warm cup of mint tea with Tunisian pastries.

Bagatelle Bistro
4323 Ontario Street East | Website
The quintessential neighbourhood bistro, this resto is located near bustling Maisonneuve Market. Because of this proximity, its Mediterranean-influenced menu draws heavily on fresh seasonal produce. The Québec black pudding, with pear sauce and pear poached in red wine, sounds heavenly.
Gaston
2666 Masson Street | Website
This beastly bustling bistro is a beauty. A classic French-inspired restaurant, located on Rosemont’s Promenade Masson, Gaston also switches up its menu depending on the bounty of the seasons. The marinated pork chop with mashed potatoes, French-style peas, and wild mushroom sauce is perfect fall fare.
Les Canailles
3854 Ontario Street East | Website
This fantastic French resto likes to mix it up with classic cuisine, leading to delicious mashups like salmon tartare with soya lime mayonnaise, cucumber, panko, tobiko, and fries made from Dolbec potatoes. Les Canailles is simply a must-try.
Monsieur B
371 Villeneuve Street East | Website
The appeal of Mister B. is no mystery. This chill yet chic corner bistro is open 7 nights a week and excels at French classics, including Eastern Townships duck confit or moules poulette.
Restaurant Le Square
162 Prince-Arthur Street East | Website
It’s hip to dine at Le Square. Nestled in the incredibly vibrant pedestrians-only Prince-Arthur Street area, this bistro has, for over a decade, been a go-to for fine French fare like duck foie gras with Québec blueberry jam, and Paris Brest from the excellent pastry shop Chez Potier.
