Great for fine wines
Charming

Three delightfully decorated halls in the Empire style that dominated

that guests treasure. An exquisite cuisine, prepared with French savoir-faire

Chez Bonaparte, on ne se trompe pas, très bon, une ambiance, et un accueil chaleureux. J’adore ce restaurant, une institution à Montréal. Le seul endroit on l’on peut avoir un vrai soufflé au Grand Marnier., un vrai régal. J’y vais régulièrement et continuerai à y aller pour toutes ces raisons, en plus un rare restaurant où l’on s’entend parler.

Single handedly, without any doubt, the best food and cocktails that has crossed my lips and the most personable service to date. Run, do not walk! A goose Cosmo, Mushroom Ravioli to start, Beef Bourguignon and a Beaujolais, Souflee Calvados and a life altering Espresso Martini by Maxim!

We’ve bee coming to Bonaparte for 22 years now. It’s a favorite on our visits to Montreal for so many reasons: the food is fantastic. We don’t always get the tasting menu, but when we do, we are always happy to have the opportunity to try so many wonderful tastes. The service is impeccable, and the lovely old building and dining spaces within are charming. We have always recommended Bonaparte and we will continue to do so. Thank you for a lovely evening!

A wonderful meal. The food was delicious ! The service great . The only sad thing that the nose level was so high that it was difficult to hear on a table of 5

Great food and service. Fish, beef and chicken dishes we ordered were all excellent fresh and well presented. Everything tasted excellent. Take the time and order the apple pie and also the soufflé.
