Le Grand Comptoir - Montréal

Near our hotel, mostly local business people, seemed like repeat customers. My sister and I wanted a less commercial experience, so we tried this place that we walked by everyday leaving our hotel. They have daily lunch and dinner specials. We opted for the lunch special $17.95 CA potato soup followed by boneless chicken stuffed with spinach/sun dried tomatoes/goat cheese with generous sides of spinach and salad. Very good. We noticed other diners dishes looked good and featured generous vegetable servings. Would recommend.

French restaurant that needs a good update. A not terrible service, high prices for the quality that it finds in the plate. Frozen fries in 2017 in a dish at $23 Pick your way.

We sat for a late lunch because it was very close to our hotel. The food was good, but not exceptional. The service is a little lacking. The prices are on par with other restaurants in the area. The duck is very good. All in all, I would return.

I was here in May with my partner and a friend. The restaurant was empty and we were seated on the patio. The server was extremely rude and when our friend missed one of the specials for the day, he refused to say it again. After taking our order it took about 40 minutes to get our food and then the server disappeared. Didn't bother to come back to ask how our meal was, let alone give us the bill. When we went inside to pay he was complaining about us to the manager in French - knowing that we speak English. We're here to let the restaurant know that we also speak French and won't be back. Serve more food and less attitude!

Nice little spot for a fairly traditional French bistro meal. I enjoyed the salade de chèvre chaud, and the tarte tatin was satisfying and not overly sweet. Excellent espresso as well.
