Le Filet: Reviews & Ratings
First time at Le Filet and had a tremendous experience. Highly recommend A top to bottom helpful and friendly staff, great vibe and delicious meal. Definitely will go back
Loved my time here - we got seats by the counter which gave us a great view of the kitchen. The service staff were fantastic - professional, helpful, and friendly. The food was great with the standouts being the miso oyster (my favorite bite in Montreal) and the honey cake desert. We spent about 300 for two people (including tip) and reservations were required. Will definitely be back next time!
One of the best customer services I have had in Montreal! Too bad we did not ask his name, but he was very kind and knowledgeable for the drinks and the dishes. All of his recommendations were on point! (All of their wine recommendations indeed satisfied all of us!). Oysters were not only fresh but it was also quite chunky . I really recommend grilled octopus too! It was soft and seasoned very well. All the main dishes we had was super tasty too. Lastly, you cannot not take the famous maple square! It was perfect to end our course Overall, it was 10 out of 10! We all really loved the vibe of the restaurant. I really liked that it was not too loud(probably we were the loudest table idk), and just by the fact the how good customer service it was, it is definitely worth to try!
Exceptional food, exceptional service and hospitality and great ambience. Small and intimate setting, you can see the kitchen, and cocktail bar. It’s lively and a little chaotic in a good way. Every dish we ordered was exceptional, but the buckwheat crab, the oysters, sesame tuna, and the tuna tartar stood out the most.
Easily in the conversation for the best restaurant in Montreal... I visit probably 4-6 times a year and it never misses.. The miso gratin oysters ARE the best app in the city, prove me wrong. Staff and service is as strong as the food.
A beautiful gem located in the Montreal Mount Royal area . Everything is delicious and offers great flavors and unique recipes . Must go and try .
Here for GP weekend and found this gem doing some quick research. Glad I did! Wonderful time with our bartender Steven and great hospitality from everyone else. The food matched their exceptional hospitality and it would be a treat to come again soon. Go and have a great time! Oh and don’t forget the oysters!!!!
This could be the best restaurant in all of Montreal! Everything i had was cooked perfectly! One of the best salmon dishes ever! The dessert I had could be the best I've had in my life! Soo good! The service was top notch too! Beautiful atmosphere. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend it!
