We took our brother here for his 59th birthday! I had been here 43 years prior but none of our other guests had been here!
What a treat!
Everything was fantastic.the service - impeccable, the food - outstanding and the whole feel of the experience was truly French!
We will be returning whenever we feel like a wonderful dining experience!
Please try this restaurant if you want the whole package!
5 stars from all of us!

A celebrated an important day here! The atmosphere is very classic, clean and elegant. The service was very warm, friendly and helpful. We tried the liver and the duck. The duck was our favorite. The liver was also very good (if you like liver- I didn't realize how rich it would be). The veggies that came on the side were very bland though. I don't think I will be back but would still recommend the restaurant to anyone who wants to try and enjoy French cuisine. We had the escargots as well - they were alright. Honestly, I think anything cooked in butter and garlic would taste good, snails probably wouldn't be my first choice again though.

A deeply disappointing restaurant. The service was excellent at first, but the main dishes took a 1+ to be brought out. French onion soup was good, but the artichoke salad — oh my god. You can get a better salad at a gas station. It had fridge-cold artichokes, lettuce and 2 grape tomatoes. It was DRENCHED in sauce that tasted like Ceasar salad dressing. It was gross.

Finally they brought out the main course. One of the dishes the scallops - was fine. Pretty good texture, but average overall. However, the steak, ordered medium rare, came out medium well done. I reluctantly sent it back as I’m not paying $45 for a poorly cooked steak but I also hate wasting food.
The replacement came out RARE, but it was so UNEVENLY cooked that it made me question the chef’s skills - either he didn’t rest it at all or the pan he used was old and overused.

With the price you pay to go out at a restaurant these days, you expect to enjoy your meal - at the very least. This restaurant left me deeply disappointed and grossed out. Might be one of the worst steaks I’ve EVER had.

This restaurant absolutely exceeding my expectations. I'm a French teacher and I brought 2 of my grade 6 classes for a French dining experience. The service, the food, the ambiance was absolutely spectacular. My students absolutely loved everything especially the staff greeting and speaking French to them the whole time. The set menu for our field trip was amazing and affordable, the students spent the entire month of June talking about how delicious the meal was. I wanted to extend my huge appreciation and mille merci, to the entire staff of Montmatre, I will definetely come back with my own family and I will definetely bring my students again.
Thanks again for the amazing food, service and for the memories my students will have for a lifetime

A homey feel French restaurant. No fancy decor, washroom is located downstairs (not accessible by wheelchair).

Food is above average but lack sophisticated presentation.

French onion soup taste great and comes very hot. But for $16.95, size is a bit small.

Escargot is very average, I won’t reorder next time.

Mussels are not bad but won’t reorder either. The sauce is worth dipping with bread but the mussels texture and size is not desirable.

We ordered 2 main dish to share. They clear out our appetizer plates, send us the main dish but we have no plates and utensils. Waited awhile for the plates to come which affects the temperature of the food.

Duck is tender and flavourful.

Lamb chop taste great and i will reorder again. Juicy and cooked to perfection.

The menu was varied, the waitress and waiters were very helpful when choosing from the menu, the food was exquisite and the atmosphere inside the French restaurant was perfect. A great place to go to be dined and wined.

I have been coming here for over 20 years and haven’t been back in a few years. Found out the restaurant was sold and it’s not the same owners anymore and as my husband said you feel there is no love in the food anymore.

The rack of lamb is a staple here and in order I guess to lower food costs have changed to frozen New Zealand lamb. When the previous owners would never have used anything less than fresh ontario lamb.

The service was great but for the prices and the little extra costs that are now for everything the food is not at the level anymore.

It’s very sad after so many years to see another special restaurant change and lose its spark.

Fantastic service! Absolutely delicious food! Fresh, hot and mouth watering A little hidden gem!

Had a really delightful dinner at Montmartre. It was a weeknight so it was relatively quiet, but the service and food were still excellent. The soup of the day was velvety and refined. The mussels came with an atypically thick cream sauce that was delicious. The entrees were fantastic as well. I look forward to coming back!

Le Montmartre is a charming and cozy French restaurant in Toronto that offers a variety of dishes from traditional to modern cuisine. The service is friendly, attentive and prompt, and the atmosphere is reminiscent of a Parisian bistro with paintings by Van Gogh and Renoir on the walls and music by Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour playing in the background.

I started with the French onion soup, which was rich and cheesy, and followed with the filet of sole meunière, which was tender and flavorful. The portion sizes were generous and the presentation was elegant. For dessert, I had the crème brûlée, which was creamy and caramelized to perfection.

The wine list was extensive and well-curated, featuring selections from different regions of France. I opted for a glass of Chablis, which paired well with my fish dish. The prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of food.

I would highly recommend Le Montmartre to anyone looking for a romantic and authentic French dining experience in Toronto. It is a hidden gem that deserves more recognition. Bon appétit!

I liked the authenticity of the place. The servers all greet you in French and throw in a bit of french here and there which definitely makes the experience more exciting. However, I found the attention from staff a little slow. The escargots app was decent but I had a small bit of it's shell that got in my mouth - probably had to be cleaned more thoroughly. The carrot cream soup was outstanding, but quite overpriced. I ordered the duck and it was underwhelming, a bit dry and not memorable enough for me to want to go back for it again.

The place is overpriced for the quality.
The special carrot soup the size of a small appetizer was $22. Really? The soup was good tho. Deserts are also overpriced and nothing really special.
The main dish - duckling was dry dry dry. The orange sauce was sour.

They actually change for the worst: (It was an amazing restaurant but now it is just over price joint: (maybe the chief is not really French? Even coffee is mediocre now: (

Beautiful place - it’s usually fairly quiet during the weekday lunch hour. Nice food, good service

Maybe my expectation was too high but food was decent. Don’t think I would go back. We ordered the steak and Lamb and they were overcooked first time. We told the waitress and recooked the dish but came out as almost blue. Waitress was really nice about it but I guess Chef was having a bad day. Best thing was french onion soup but nothing too special.

Tres beau restaurant francais. L'atmosphere nous transporte tout de suite et on se sent chez nous. Le manger est divin

Le montmartre French Restaurant is my favorite.the foods are excellent, the prices are good, the Atmosphere and services are so great.the best place to spend the time with your loved one.

Service is subpar and very slow and the workers weren't very attentive! Took 10 mins to be seated and placed at the worst table then it took 20 mins for the water to come and a full hour for the food that wasn't that good! Definitely not returning and wouldn't recommend for anybody!

The food was really delicious - seafood, meat, soup were cooked perfectly. The Tiramisu was not tasty. But. I don’t want to come to this place again, because it is sooo old-fashion (in a bad way). I mean, the interior, the music, serving the dish, so outdated.

Excellent restaurant. The grouper entree was great. Great veggies and appies. Staff prompt, great venue. Great value. Will be going agin soon.

Used to be family owned and operated was amazing. New owners come in and food is horrible, waited 2 hours for raw meat, waited 20 min Just to get waters and another 20 min for the bread. This used to be a Comfy place to come with the family and is sadly no longer that. Prices are way beyond the quality of the food. Stay away

This restaurant is truly a diamond. The food is authentic and excellent. The ambience is unlike any other and will leave you coming back for more! It is a romantic and warm setting that truly whisks you away into the boulevards of France.

Phenomenal classic, little French spot. Probably the best duck a l'orange I've had outside of France. I hadn't been in years and apparently the ownership has changed but everything is as good as I remember. Definitely worth the trip to North York if you're downtown and looking for excellent traditional French dishes.

Worth trying.

This is a homely locals favourite that serves a staple focused menu of the classics like duck, onion soup, fresh escargot and pate.

Steak is a disappointment for the price in terms of both quality and quantity. Lack of finesse on sides of vegetables and mushroom makes the burden for the steak to be too heavy to bear. Poor char/grill, sauce is generic, mushroom adds nothing special. Flavourful, but nothing special.

Duck was dry and was overcooked. Duck is naturally fatty, so when you over do it, it becomes dry and "fried". Flavours were complementary with the fruit. Average.

Pate was flavourful but the random lettuce and tomato feels like an afterthought. More thought can be put into the crouton to make the homemade pate standout more. Average.

Onion soup was actually really good and I definitely recommend this. Lots of cheese, good crust, thick flavourful blended soup.

House Italian wine was easy drinking and recommended not too dry, not sweet. Did 2 bottles of house wine between 4. Roughly 100pp which makes it kind of expensive for what you get.

Takes AMEX. Parking at rear.

We had dinner here and ordered 3 appetizers and 2 entrees that totalled about $130 before tip and this is probably one of the worst meals we've ever eaten.

The meal started with a decent french onion soup and went downhill from there. We ordered the caesar salad which was made up of lettuce, bacon bits from a bag, powdered cheese, and dressing from a bottle. For $15 we expected higher standards for a small salad. We also ordered a disappointing pate which sat on a couple pieces of romaine lettuce and was served with only 2 small pieces of crusted bread.

Our appetizers were followed by the two entrees which were the most disappointing part of the whole meal. The grouper was obviously cooked from frozen and topped with what seemed like salsa from a jar. This was accompanied by boiled, unseasoned beans, carrots, and another mushy unrecognizable vegetable. The worst item we had was the duck. It was obviously frozen previously, very dry and tasteless but the worst part was the sweet orange sauce that was poured over it that made it inedible. Again it was served with a side of boiled vegetables.

Overall the food was terrible and i would not eat here ever again.

One of a very true authentic French resturants in the Toronto area my only real beef is the French onion soup very small given what I paid for.the service tre magnificent.overall good experience.
