Cute place and romantic atmosphere.
Food selectively good.
I had scallop and wagyu steak.
Really liked rose wine - smoky and fruity at the same time.
Scallop on the dry side and lots of sauce.

wagyu steak -ok just ok. Had so many sides and are that over cooked.
My red wine that supposed to go with wagyu was icy cold and not in the right class served. Why ? Not sure.
Waiter completely was dismissive to me out the party of 4 people.
Not what I have expected from a place with so many stars.

So first of all we were at the table of 4 like referenced in the negative review from Biana. Everyone else had a stellar meal and the service was exceptional. We've asked her to remove the completely unfair review but so far it's still up so we felt no choice but to leave a review of our own.

This is not the first time we invited her someplace and although everyone else had a great experience she ordered something she didn't like. Let me put it in perspective. The wagu steak was a luxury item more than 3 times the price of everything else on the menu. If u order something like that you take the chance to see if you like it and if it's worth doing for you again. As stated in review it was OK so essentially just It was not matching HER expectations.

In this case the rest of us feel it was a case of buyers remorse. Imagine being the waiter and someone makes a scene perhaps even in an attempt to return a very expensive meal that simply one person doesn't like. Sure if you don't like a $30-40 meal you can do that.. bring me something different please.. this is not to my liking.. but no you can't do that with a $140+ wagu steak. If YOU don't like it tough. Don't order it next time.

The waiter otherwise was perfect and we felt very welcome as he was personable and attentive. There was just nothing he could do about Biana in that situation.

We do not support that review and since we brought her there we feel responsible and apologize for putting the restaurant in this position. Not only was our fantastic meal partially ruined by her attitude (premature departure) and subsequent review (which came in while we were still at the restaurant), but now a fantastic restaurant and great waiter has been defamed unfairly.

Please pay no attention to that review and come see for yourself. It's a great restaurant and other people agree with us in countless reviews! Again.. We've asked her to reconsider her stance but, that failing, perhaps it's best that we simply not include her from now on in our restaurant adventures.

This is a great restaurant but there are some issues preventing it from achieving 5 star status. For one, the service is extremely slow. Unless you have 3-4 hours don't bother. I enjoy fine dining & still found this insanely slow compared to other restaurants in the industry.

Food was great, but not incredible. Around the table we had bison cheek, deer steak, scallops, Tuna tartare, all of which simply met expectations. Nothing really stood out in our eyes, nothing was remarkable. They also have limited digestifs which is surprising. Value for experience is quite good, we ate very well for roughly $250 / couple with tip included.

It's a nice spot to experience on a trip, but not a place I would dine regularly, or even more than once! We enjoyed ourselves, so overall 4 stars.

Hats off to Nelson for providing us with exceptional service and excellent wine recommendations! I would highly recommend this establishment if you enjoy classic French cuisine as the seafood, duck & lamb dishes stood out. Ice cream flavors were also unique and impactful.

A Culinary Extravaganza in French Delights!

Our recent dining experience at this exquisite French cuisine establishment left us utterly delighted and gratified. We embarked on a gastronomic journey like no other, indulging in the finest offerings of the menu. From the moment we stepped foot into the restaurant, we were enchanted by the elegant ambiance and warm hospitality.

The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the prime rib, a succulent masterpiece that weighed a generous 32 ounces. Cooked to perfection, the meat was tender and juicy, melting in our mouths with every savory bite. The blend of herbs and spices infused in the prime rib added a remarkable depth of flavor that left us craving for more.

To complement our meaty indulgence, we decided to savor a magnificent lobster dish, which turned out to be nothing short of culinary art. The lobster was flawlessly cooked, boasting sweet and delicate flesh that was simply divine. Each morsel evoked a sense of luxury that we relished with every passing second.

Not only did the flavors tantalize our taste buds, but the presentation of the dishes was a feast for the eyes as well. The plating was immaculate, and every element on the plate was arranged with precision and creativity. We found ourselves marveling at the artistry that went into every dish, appreciating the attention to detail that elevated the entire dining experience.

Accompanying our main courses were a delightful array of vegetables, which served as a refreshing and wholesome addition to our meal. Freshly harvested and expertly cooked, they complemented the main dishes harmoniously, enhancing the overall symphony of flavors on our palates.

The attentive and knowledgeable staff ensured that our needs were promptly met, and they were always ready to provide insightful recommendations, enhancing our dining experience further. It's evident that the restaurant takes great pride in delivering impeccable service and leaving no stone unturned in making guests feel pampered and content.

Our visit to this French cuisine haven was nothing short of extraordinary. The 32-ounce prime rib and the delectable lobster, coupled with the delightful vegetable medley, created a meal that we'll fondly remember for years to come. The exceptional presentation, warm hospitality, and divine flavors culminated in an evening that earned five stars without a doubt. We wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to all culinary enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable dining adventure.

Bravo to the talented chefs and dedicated staff for a truly remarkable experience! We eagerly look forward to returning soon for another epicurean journey.

On Grand Prix weekend we looked outside Montreal to find a great restaurant and we were able to find a table through their app even within three hours of table time. The neighbourhood is picturesque and the house is tucked back from a pretty public square. Walking up we knew this was going to be a great experience and confirmed even more so as we walked in and greeted by the staff. The service was excellent and all the staff was very patient and kind to translate. Taking a picture with Google also quickly translated the menu. The service was timely and we never felt rushed. We choose the multi course menu with wine pairings. Expensive but worth the experience because we got to try four beautiful wines paired with all the courses. I lost count honestly but they were all made and presented to perfection. All the roast vegetables burst with flavour and the meats, shellfish, sauces and deserts were fabulous. If you want a culinary treat Le Mitoyen is a great choice!

We were a group of 4 to celebrate friend birthday, my first experience, and I was amazed with the quality of the foods, excellent services, and warm ambient. We are looking for the next group party and for sure that we'll recommend it to our friends.
