This was an excellent experience. The service we received the moment we walked in the door was top notch. The staff made you truly feel welcome, we sat at the bar near the kitchen and the chef caught us eyeing dishes as they came out, he was so friendly and explained what the dishes were in detail. Mel truly made the experience special, she took time to visit and help us pick out the best coffee shops and restaurants for the rest of our trip. Le Violon is a special place and a must if you are in Montreal, the food is incredible!

We waited a bit pour notre réservation, but it was all good! Once seated, everything was smooth and really enjoyable.

Definitely overrated, especially for a city like Montreal with such a strong food scene. Out of five dishes, only two met expectations (the agnolotti and the boeuf). The other three were very disappointing: asparagus with a poorly executed hollandaise, scallops that were tasteless with an unbalanced sauce, and a crudo that was visually beautiful but lacked flavor. Overall, quite underwhelming given how overpriced it is. Service felt pretentious and more focused on upselling than genuinely guiding us toward the best choices. Not worth the price or the effort of planning weeks ahead to get a reservation.

This isn't a bad restaurant, it's just wildly overrated. Made me a little depressed to come back to Montreal.

For top 100 canadian restaurants, not bad, just underwhelming… also the waiters were trying their best to serve us professionally but they were really awkward.

Fabulous restaurant with great food! Two points that negatively impacted the experience for me. First I made it clear when we ordered that after our initial drink we would be looking for wine to pair with our meal, yet I had to seek out the server when our drinks were finished to get that wine before our main course arrived. Second, while we were enjoying our desert the server nicely asked if it was ok to bring the bill as the next reservation was to arrive shortly. We of course said no problem however it just left a sour taste in my mouth as we were almost finished our desert. This was particularly annoying as there was an empty table of four that was vacant beside us throughout our entire meal and as we stood outside waiting for our cab, that table of four was still empty and the table we just vacated now sat the next couple. Not sure why the couple coming in after us could not have been seated at the table of 4 until we finished our desert and left.
