A very mediocre, tourist trap. The food is nothing special. You can get the same kind of food at a Moxie's or Milestones. The only thing it has going for it is location. We got a diet coke, a two course prix fixe of smoothie of the day and Shakshuka $29 and a $30 burger with soggy fries and a coffee. The total came to $90 with tax and tip. There is so much better food elsewhere in Montreal.

Paid their extra $14 on the table d'hote to get the steak. Not worth it in the slightest. Don't upsell on bad cuts of meat. People notice. I'm not a snob, I'm not rich, and I noticed. Service was wonderful, appetizer and dessert were fine I guess.

What a most delightful experience. From the moment we entered to tasting of wines and the most incredible food, we were treated fabulously. Highly recommend the beef tartare, foie gras and crème brûlée.

Food was good, but like most places in the old port, despite good food and nice decor, quality is like any other restaurant for at least 1.5x-2x times the price.

The best Steak frites I have had outside of Paris. And we eat it often. Pascal was so attentive and helpful. He went out of his way to make sure our group had a great time. Thank you.

We went here for brunch and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. The service was extremely slow and disorganized. It took a long time to get our starter, and then almost another hour before the main course arrived. In total, we waited more than two hours for the meal. Even at the end, we had trouble finding someone to bring us the bill so we could pay and leave. The pancakes were actually very good, but the shakshuka egg was not good at all. It was watery. Overall, the long wait and poor service made the experience frustrating, which is unfortunate

Dear Sarvin, Thank you for visiting us for brunch and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the long wait times and the difficulties you experienced with service — this is certainly not the experience we aim to provide. We sincerely apologize for the delays throughout your meal and for the trouble getting the bill at the end. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the pancakes, but we regret that the shakshuka did not meet expectations. Your feedback is very important to us. We hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future to provide a smoother and more enjoyable experience. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention. Best regards, The Maggie Oakes Team.

I stayed at Hotel William Gray and ate at this establishment for almost every meal. The staff were welcoming and the food satisfying. Shout out to Pascal! My friend and I were always happy to receive his service.

We came here for brunch, but it took about 30 minutes just to receive our drinks and over an hour for our food. The service felt slow and inattentive, and the food itself was just okay. Overall, we expected better quality from this restaurant.

Deplorable! As soon as I arrived, I went to Cafe Olympico and decided to make a reservation for the restaurant at the hotel lounge. I take a seat and observe the menu. 2 minutes after, what appeared to be a security guy called Kamel, tells me “what you doing here?- you cant be here”. No questions or anything, just straight saying this. I said “I am making a reservation for the restaurant”. He says “leave now!”. I said “Sir, please give me some minutes so I can reserve”. He insisted me to leave and raised his voice to which I replied “this is absurd, there is no reason for you to be rude.” He told me “you’re crazy if you plan on staying here”. I then decided to leave. It is very implausible to ask for clients to leave and this felt as an attack. As a member of a minority group, I might not look rich to his eyes but he has no right to call me crazy or treat me like that. Well, now you lost not only one client but ill make sure the people I know, are aware if this.

Their washrooms are so dirty, the staff are unfriendly, and the food is dry and tasteless. I don't recommend this place.
