Brasserie Saint-Denis - Montréal

I always enjoy this Brasserie with a modern twist, it's even better now! I love the wine and the food. Great as always.

The food, atmosphere, and service at this restaurant were all excellent. Their mussels are especially delicious, and my husband really enjoyed his burger and fries.

Brasserie St Denis reinvented itself as the most Quebecois of European brasseries really an upper scale restaurant. A young innovative chef in the person of Etienne Demers is cranking out some great culinary creations made with 'produits du terroir ', local Quebec ingredients. We had a great meal. Appertizers a delicious beef tartare with a few pieces of smoked herring and preserved carrots, and a to die for chicken liver mousse with prunes and mustard. The main was an inspired cod fillet served on a bed of eggplant, covered with grilled zucchini and a smoked yougurt sauce. Out of this world desert of strawberry panacotta and a financier with caramel cream and chocolate ganache. A white Okanagan Valley white nicely complemented the meal. The place always looked terrific, and looks even better now.Service was wonderful all in all a great experience.

All you can eat mussels, Monday to Wednesday. DID YOU HEAR ME? They have about 20 options of flavours (most with dairy, though). I had the Provencal style (I think) and they were cooked perfectly and quite good. The Hubster the lamb burger with frites. He enjoyed it very much and I enjoyed his fries very much. He had ordered it as part of the Tuesday trio special: burger, beer and one side for a set price. The service was very friendly, particularly since the staff at the time was limited in English and our French is about the same. We still got through to each other pretty easily. It's a beautiful restaurant with cozy banquettes and a TV above the bar where your husband can glance over at during dinner. I'd visit here again.

I am a great fan of mussels and was taken to this Brasserie for the first time. I have to say their selection is one of the best I have seen and the variant I chose was excellent. Portions are large so expect to be well filled! It is not ideally suited to a social evening out for dinner but ideal for those who love mussels and are hungry!
