Reviews for Restaurant Jaques-Cartier in Montréal, QC

If I could go negative stars I would. The waitress does not attend to us over 30 minutes to get the menu in the first..... The... waitress finally comes over to say. They were "backed up in the kitchen" and she did not have a clue about the menu itemsingredients. That's is simply hazardous to someone's health. The food finally arrived after 1 and half hour later which is themost BLAND AND WORTHLESS experience. I agree with many of the reviewers it is a tourist trap. To top it off the waitress has tobe reminded to bring most simplest things to the table. Like napkins, cutlery or salt/pepper. Then has the audacity to agrueabout the lack of a tip. She tell my family and I, "Don't ever come here to eat again. Cheap people calling me back to the tableevery 2 minutes ". Do yourself a favor and hungry instead if this restaurant is your only option. Read more

would not return. So many other great places everything we had was just ordinary. Bread hard as a rock !

Food was decent. I had the manicotti which is vegetarian so I cannot speak for any meat/seafood. Decor is a little outdated.... Price is average, considering the restaurant is right on Jacques Cartier. Server was nice. Read more

I ordered the soup of the day and bruschetta, they were really tasty. But the service is a bit strange, cause me and my friends... were made to leave tips. The waitress just didn't give us a choice not to leave or custom the amount of tips. Another moment ismy friend paid for her meal twice by accident. She asked to return her money for the accident transaction. The waitress claimedthat everything is alright and that it's my friend's problem for paying twice. In the end the staff returned money though. Read more

Nice place, tasty food, good service. Nothing extraordinary. Good choice to grab a quick lunch with kids. My kids are picky... eaters, but they loved the pizza and french fries. Read more

Definitely a tourist trap ! Stay Away ! Overpriced food with below average quality and subpar services. The pizza was miserable,... so oily & tasteless. The menu mentioned pesto, oregano & goats cheese. There was barely anything on it. Just flavourless pizzasauce and loads of cheese. How do you go wrong with a pizza. Had Salmon tartare, eggplant parmigiana as well and both veryaverage when it comes to quality of food. Additionally the service sucked, broken glass, no salt pepper on table, zoned outserver. We were supposed to get dessert with the meal, the waiter didn?t even bother to get it. Read more

Lots of options and the food is tasty! But portions can be a bit spare and sometimes the service can be slow, plus it?s fairly... pricey Read more

We went to this restaurant on our last day in Montreal because most the other places were kind of full. The servers working at... that time were nice but the service took too long. We finished eating our soup and we waited another like 10 minutes for therest of the food. And any time we tried to ask them something like more water we tried to flag them down but they think we werejust waving at them, which sounds weird. The prices as well were a bit over priced. Other than that the location was nice andthere was no wait. Read more
