Indoor seating is limited and can get a little busy on the weekends. I just spent the last week in Montreal and visited 4 times. Croissants, pain au chocolates, milles feuilles, tarts, cakes, madeleines, oh my! I tasted so many things and as I sit here in the airport I am eating my final treat, a croissant sandwich with smoked salmon and a variety of fixings. When I find really good food I often forget to take pictures because of how fixated I am on enjoying it. This is one of those times. No pictures, only memories.

Enjoyed Jardin Nelson a lot in Old Montreal!…read more Its an old terrace restaurant in the historical square with all their seating being outdoors in a terrace. Its a lovely atmosphere as you are surrounded by a beautiful garden while enjoying live jazz music. As for food, we got the following 1)Smoked meat crepe - crepe stuffed smoked meat, honey mustard, cheese, served with coleslaw and dill pickle 2) Fresh salmon and spinach lasagna 3) Saumon frais - Fresh Atlantic salmon, red bell peppers, snow peas and lime, served on rice vermicelli flavoured with garlic, dill and cilantro, served lukewarm My favourite had to be Fresh salmon and spinach lasagna. Beautiful creamy sauce filled with béchamel sauce, cheddar, mozzarella with lots of Atlantic salmon stuffed inside. Its comfort food that is so delicious. Overall, service is really good as our waitress can remember all our requests and is bilingual ( English/ french). Its a place worth checking out with its lovely atmosphere and not overly expensive ($20 to 30 per dish). Remember no reservations are accepted so go lineup early!

Moves very quick and waited maybe 15 mins to be seated. Well worth it esp if in this area of Montreal. Lots of shade and heaters if weather is cold. Had Francois who helped us and did amazing.

Plus soft live jazz playing all day.

I'm a huge fan of Somebody Feed Phil, and after watching Phil rave about St-Viateur Bagel Café--and…read moreeven do his signature happy dance over the bagels--I knew I had to try it for myself. I've eaten bagels my entire life and honestly never thought they were anything that special. But when we had the chance to visit Montreal, this was one of the first places on our list. When we arrived, there was a long line, and we waited about 35 minutes. Normally, that would make me question whether it's worth it, but this time it absolutely was. I ordered the smoked salmon with fig jam on an everything bagel, and it was incredible. The bagel was perfectly fresh, with a chewy interior and just the right amount of crispness on the outside. Combined with the smoked salmon and the sweetness of the fig jam, it was one of the best bagel sandwiches I've ever had. I rarely say this, but it was 100% worth the wait. My only disappointment is that I didn't have enough time to try their famous competitor so I could compare the two. I guess that just gives me another reason to come back to Montreal!

Apparently you cannot come to Montreal without visiting St-Viateur Bagel…read more We tried on Monday. There was a line. A very long line. Mom looked at the line. Dad looked at the line. I looked at Mom and Dad. We left. But Mom does not give up easily when carbohydrates are involved, so we returned on Friday and successfully secured a table on the street patio. Much better. The patio is right out front and turned out to be an excellent place for me to sit with Mom and watch Mile End go by. You go inside to order and pay first, then they bring everything out to your table. Very convenient because when you're finished, you can simply get up and continue your adventures. Mom ordered the Traditional bagel with smoked salmon, cream cheese, tomato, onion and capers. It also arrived with two tiny slices of melon, which I assume constitutes dessert in the bagel industry. Dad ordered two plain bagels with butter. Please study the accompanying photograph carefully. You will see Dad actively eating a bagel while I sit approximately 18 inches away staring directly at the table. This was not an accidental composition. This was a cry for help. Mom had an iced coffee and Dad had a Diet Coke. The humans agreed the bagels were worth coming back for, and I have to admit the entire operation is pretty fun -- busy, casual and very Montreal. From a dog perspective, the outdoor patio works well and I was perfectly happy hanging out with the humans. However, no water bowl was offered during our visit. Dogba's verdict: 3 paws out of 5. Famous Montreal bagels: worth the return trip Street patio: excellent People watching: first-rate Mom's Traditional: very popular with Mom Dad's two buttered bagels: ambitious Iced coffee break: Mom approved Two tiny pieces of melon: apparently dessert Dogba's bagel allocation: suspiciously low Proof Dad ate directly in front of me: documented Would I return? Absolutely. It's a classic Montreal stop, the patio made it easy for me to join the humans, and I take my responsibility to investigate iconic local foods very seriously. Next time, however, I will be monitoring Dad's second bagel much more closely.

For a self-proclaimed foodie destination, this place just got crossed off this foodie's list…read more Admittedly we showed up after the lunch rush, but the place had been absolutely ransacked. The server seated us without warning, and when we went to order, each item we requested had run out. No Cuban, no chicken melt, no several other delicious sounding things. She gave us 10 more minutes to look over the menu and come up with a plan B. Truthfully I wanted to jump ship, but couldn't because our drink orders were already in, and I was captain of this gastronomic journey. We'd set sail without proper forecasting! We settled on the baked egg and salmon bowl, neither what we were exactly craving. The baked egg was fairly tasty, a shakshouka-esque experience accompanied by rustic bread for hasty dipping. The salmon bowl was excellent, with delicious dressing, but the salmon portion was oh-so-meager. It made me wonder if the lunch rush had given the kitchen such a beating that they had split my salmon filet in half and served it to me and my neighboring table friend. Check out my photo and tell me if that portion seems right? The lore says Michael Jordan worked his rear off every game because he always told himself there was probably at least one kid in the stands who came there to see THE Michael Jordan. Well this kid in the stands caught Olive et Gourmando taking the night off. There is a risk for peril if you choose this restaurant, especially if you are in Montréal for a limited time!

Man, I've lived in California and haven't even found a place there that is close to this! Really as good as it gets. Their gluten free paninis and bagels are unbelievable!

I also love their carrot cake although I try not to eat too many sweets so I'll get that one once a month or so. You can also special order gluten free cakes :) You can order products through the website and there is a weekly pickup where you drive down to the bakery in DDO and pick up your order for the week.

The service at first was a bit slow, but that was understandable given how busy the restaurant was. Our server, Yan, was incredibly personable. He had excellent suggestions for dinner. We each started with cocktails, and enjoyed the ambiance. There was a live band, but we were in a different room. It wasn't loud like you would expect. 5/5 service. Beef Tartare: 5/5. This was an excellent start. The appetizer sizing was a little small for two people. If you want a little more, I'd recommend the entree size. It comes with fries. But it was delicious. The crostini's that came with it were a little overpowering, but the tartare itself was delicious. Duck Confit: 5/5. This duck was INCREDIBLE. Perfectly cooked, crispy skin, tender and juicy flavor. An incredible sauce. Delicious veggies and potatoes. The only thing I did not like about this dish was how quickly we ate it! Dessert (not pictured): 5/5. We had a chocolate pyramid with hazelnuts and chocolate mousse. Delicious. Be sure to put Modavie on your Montreal dining list!

I do recommend making a reservation on open table prior to coming. Here is what I think of the food: Seasoning is generally saltier but not too overly. Escargot or the snails is yummy. It comes with the option of cheese on top. Dressed heavy with olive oil and garlic. They remove the shell so it makes it approachable if you were nervous about trying. Cheese & Charcuterie board is as what you imagined. It can't go wrong. Rack of Lamb was good. I do recommend highly. It comes with our 4-5 bones worth of protein with potatoes & veggies. Lost track of how many bones because it was eaten so fast. Duck confit was average. Let me explain, duck was average but the amount of spinach I gotten and how potatoes on the plate was good. Sides out shine the protein here. Side of Foie Gras was perfect because I was worried about having too much food. It did come on a small plate because it's a side dish and it was fatty and salty. Intermission was the best cocktail of the night. Fruity with a star anise on top so you smell it while drinking it because it was so close to your nose. Jazz District was okay. Overall, I do think this restaurant site fairly between 4&5 stars. Do try it. I would come back for special occasions and it's not an every night meal.
