Unexpected visit to Montreal, decided to eat at the hotel restaurant. Very pleasantly surprised! French cuisine, best meal I have had in some time!

Went for their sunday brunch. On the positive side - everything was great and fresh. It is so nice they included the hot and cold drinks even smoothies or lattes. Fruit was also really nice Service was great as expected. Place was a bit empty and I can see why. Buffet is tiny with very small number of choices. Only one hot beef option (that was great of course) With all this I probably would spend a tiny bit more and go for the Queen Elizabeth Sunday brunch instead. We find it offers a better value and experiance and especially time well spent.

Stunning decor and atmosphere for a Tuesday lunch. Quiet, elegant, impeccable service. Food was delicious but too lean for my taste. I had white fish and it could have a been served with a rich creamy sauce to help with the dryness/leanness of the fish. I’m very thin and eat lots of fat to stay thin. Fat-free eating is a hoax

The service and atmosphere were great 5 ⭐️. Unfortunately, one of the cheeses served had pink discoloration and was unusually sticky, which made me concerned about its freshness. I brought it to their attention, and they replaced it with a different type of cheese, which I appreciated. However, I think the kitchen should be more careful when checking food before serving it, because not every customer will notice something like this.

The staff were all lovely and added to the already incredible atmosphere. The food was a touch pricey but it was some of the best I’ve ever tasked. Definitely worth coming here.

The breakfast bundle is a very good price for a restaurant of this caliber (assuming that you want everything that's included) - same as what you'd pay at Eggspectations

Spoil yourself and go! Expertly prepared, beautiful presentation and we loved the sourcing of local seafood, vegetables and meats from Quebec. Were very accommodating with our 5 year old as well.

There are many places in downtown that I now avoid . This one is still genuine, the staff is very friendly and the client is respected . I am never disappointed when I come here . For a coffee , cocktails or dinner . You are treated the same . I was served by Hassan this morning, he was genuinely friendly and professional. This is my definition of luxury .

Excellent evening dinner at Renoir. Wait staff are kind and punctual service. Enjoyed the ambience and gentle jazz music playing. Menu is simple but difficult to decide what to order as many good options! Had table d’hôte for $80 reasonable for the quality service and portion. Very delightful fish - seafood entrees and mains. Desserts were tasty and once again good size. Overall would come again. Note to find parking garage nearby as there isn’t any. We found one on metcalf street pricing was ok ($10) for this distance from the restaurant!

Martin's professionalism, attentiveness, and kindness are unparalleled. He has been a familiar face at Renoir for a considerable period. The restaurant team is fortunate to have him as part of their team.

I had high expectations for the Easter brunch on April 5th, especially given the higher price point and my past positive experiences with the regular Sunday brunch. Unfortunately, this visit was very disappointing. The selection was extremely limited—no smoothies, no decaf options, and very few choices overall. The food itself was ordinary at best, lacking the quality and variety I’ve come to expect. Even more surprising, there was no way to have meat cooked to a preferred temperature, which is quite basic for a brunch of this level. Service was also noticeably slow, which added to the underwhelming experience. I used to come here regularly, about once a month, and always enjoyed it. This time, however, left me genuinely questioning whether I’ll return. For what was marketed as a special Easter brunch, it felt very misleading and not worth the premium price.

We had a wonderful Sunday brunch at Renoir at the Sofitel Montréal, and it was truly a memorable experience. Chef Félix Duquet was incredibly impressive — not only for the quality of the food, but also for the care and attention he gave to the guests. He personally came by to ensure everything was perfect and made us feel genuinely welcomed. That level of hospitality makes a big difference. The brunch itself was outstanding: beautifully prepared dishes, refined flavors, and the kind of thoughtful presentation you expect from a top Montreal restaurant. Every plate felt carefully crafted and delicious. A big thank you to Chef Félix and the Renoir team for making our Sunday brunch so special. We will definitely be back.

Food, service and the people I was with were awesome. Presentation was excellent. Started with the Soup du jour along with the brazed beef. Everything was great!

Experiencing the start of Montreal en Lumiere with guest chef Lorenzo Di Gravio was delicious! Every dish was beautiful, the service was attentive and well-paced, and the dining room was elegant and comfortable. Unforgettable night.

We visited the restaurant the day before Valentine’s Day, hoping to enjoy the regular à la carte menu. Unfortunately, we were informed that only the Valentine’s set menu was available. It was $85 per person and included an amuse-bouche, a choice of appetizer, a choice of main course from 2 options, and dessert. Amuse-bouche and dessert were great. My friends' beetroot salad also didn't disappoint. Unfortunately, the scallops I ordered were cut in half, making them quite thin, which affected both texture and taste. The braised beef all of us had was also disappointing, as it did not seem cooked long enough to achieve the tenderness one expects from a braised dish. On a positive note, the service was impeccable — attentive, professional, and very courteous. They handled our feedback about the beef very well and kindly did not charge us for the drinks as a gesture of apology, which we appreciated. Overall, while the service was excellent, the food and value did not meet our expectations, and we left feeling somewhat disappointed.
