Lemeac is a true Montreal institution and a very solid choice if you’re looking for a classic, reliable dining experience. We’ve been a few times over the years and it’s always been consistent. The atmosphere is lively, the service is professional, and the overall experience is smooth from start to finish. The food is good and well executed, with a menu that sticks to timeless French brasserie classics. Nothing overly surprising, but you know what you’re getting, and it’s done properly. It’s a dependable spot that has clearly stood the test of time.

Lemeac is simply one of the best restaurants in Montreal. I’ve been going for over 20 years, and it has never changed; everything remains perfectly consistent, food, service, ambiance. Which is very rare. Amazing! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Carla :)

One of the first brunch spots I’ve visited that claims to be of higher quality. Based on the menu and presentation, it certainly looks like a premium experience. Unfortunately, I don’t think that translates to the flavor. My dish had a very confusing taste — I love complexity, but this was just overwhelming, too many competing flavors. The dessert was better than the main course, but even though it was technically well executed, it still wasn’t particularly delicious. Considering the higher price and smaller portions compared to other “lesser” spots, I’d honestly prefer going to the more modest places.

Lemeac provides an 80’s atmosphere, a very distinguished service, and an unchanged but tasty menu for a special night out. We enjoyed our time there.

This is where justin trudeau and katy perry went on a date. I loved the atmosphere and the food. The good point is they have an after 10p.m menu which is nice for hanging out with friends.

I honestly don’t know how they have a Michelin. This restaurant was absolutely horrible. They failed to follow through on my birthday and did not take responsibility. We waited to be seated despite making a reservation and the bread was super cold good terrible don’t eat here ever

Wonderful , attentive service and delicious food. Vesper martini, squash soup, steak frites and a baba au rhum for dessert. Everything was delicious. My wife and friends had mussels with fries and they loved their food. Very knowledgeable and fully bilingual staff. The restaurant was busy but we had great service. Highly recommend. Prices reasonable for the quality.

From all the restaurants I visited in Montreal this is without a doubt the best. Food taste is excellent, service is impeccable and atmosphere is great. The quality to price ratio is very high; you would expect unreasonable prices like other restaurants that are not that good. This restaurant deserves not only a Michelin mention, but also a Michelin star!

My favourite restaurant in Montreal. Every plate is a treat, always prepared to perfection. Each service is delicious. The service is consistently pleasant and attentive. The wines are well selected and variety is quite wide. During Montreal en lumiere, c’est même mieux. Magnificent additions to the menu!

One of my top three restaurants in Montreal, and I happily come back 4 to 5 times a year. It’s just as beautiful in the summer as it is in the winter, which makes every visit feel special. The service is consistently warm and attentive, and the surrounding neighborhood adds so much charm to the experience. Montreal has no shortage of great spots, but this one truly stands out. Already looking forward to my next visit.

A few weeks ago, was still 2025, weeks went for a lunch to Lemeac, and have to say was impressed. Loved the atmosphere, its loud but for me nice, the lunch menus well setup and service overall was super too. A place to go for lunch but for sure also an evening time. Loved the dessert as well, yummy as we speak. Reservation needed evening or lunch time, can say it worth while. I will be back:)

Not what it used to be… This place has seriously gone downhill. We stood by the entrance for ten minutes, completely ignored by passing staff. Not even a quick “good evening, someone will be with you.” Makes you feel very welcome. When we were finally seated, the waiter didn’t bother offering to take our coats — just pointed across the room and said, “you can hang your coats over there.” From there, things only got worse: our food took 1.5 hours to arrive, and when it finally did, it wasn’t worth the wait. Sadly, this used to be a favorite spot. Now it’s just disappointing.

Leméac was the perfect place for a client dinner. The atmosphere was upscale and not loud. The service was perfect. We never felt rushed, and she was very well-versed in the wines and all other aspects of the restaurant. You order everything at once, and they have a perfect pace for bringing out the food. You have plenty of time for each course. The food was excellent! I would recommend this to anyone who wants to have a fantastic experience while impressing their dinner guest(s)!

What a gem. Had the foie gras, duck breast, and chocolate tart with ginger ice cream. All so delicious and beautifully prepared. Service was wonderful too and he suggested nice wine pairings. Would definitely recommend.
