Reviews for Taverne Monkland / Monkland Tavern in Montréal, QC

If you?re looking to spend a lot of money on average food and for average service this is your place. I liked that they had... chefs specials of the day. Although it was all written in-front of us on the chalk board the server re read exactly the 7 dishesthat was written in front of us. But I digress, I found the place very loud and when it got a little closer to 10pm they bumpedup the volume on the music even higher which made it really hard to even talk to the person next to me. I had the cauliflowersteak which tasted really bland with no sauce or side. Just topped with some very tiny cut up veggies and olive oil. For theprice I thought it was lacking a lot of personality. The blue cheese broccoli was good. But when the plate showed up thebrocolis covered 1/4th of the plate and the rest was empty. I understand that it was more for the aesthetic look but for a 20$appetizer I was extremely disappointed. The wine was great thankfully. Once it came to paying I barely got a glance or goodbyefrom our server. After spending five minutes reading to us what was on the board you?d think I?d even get a name but after wepaid she scurried off. Kind of felt like service from a fast food restaurant. Over all I ?liked? it. It was alright. If you?relooking to spend a little extras for an alright place this is your spot. Read more

Never disappoints. Proper, high end, comfort fare in the most welcoming and relaxed ambience. Josh - Head Chef and Owner is an... absolute delight of a human and professional in the field. The staff and ownership at Monkland is beyond accommodating andknowledgeable. Everyone is clearly passionate about the establishment and menu. There's a wonderful private import wine listthat sits alongside an array of old, and new school cocktail selections, that accompany an ever surprising chalkboard menu,complimenting the restaurants staple dishes. 5 stars through and through.

One of the best restaurants on monkland street. Food is delicious. I love their juicy and tasty BURGER. Beet salad and their... crispy honey ginger shrimps are a treat. Keep room for their delicious hot cookie dough desert !!! Read more

Waiters are always there when you need them, and cooking staff technically brilliant.It?s a clear sign that management are doing things right. It?s always a great outing. Thank you tavern. Read more

Very nice place!! The ambiance is cozy and classy. We received an excellent service. They were very accommodating given the fact... we came with a wheelchair. (A client was very annoyed and complained to the poor waiter because he was too close of thewheelchair) but the waiter never put pressure on us. The food was perfectly cooked and served hot. We had the shrimp and a beefplate. Desserts are excellent too ( the cookie is a very comforting dessert you will want to hug). This is fully accessible! Sorare in this area so enjoy!! Can't wait to go back this summer! Read more
