Bistro Le Tire-Bouchon

Bistro Le Tire-Bouchon

This restaurant was recommended by the staff at our hotel. We were thinking of going to downtown Montreal on our first night, but there were so many good restaurants that we couldn't choose. So we went to this AAA 3 star restauarant not knowing what to expect.

What we found was a genuine French atmosphere, and incredibly friendly waiters. They made the perfect recommendations of wine and entrees. They started us off with a bubbly blackcurrent wine with bread and salad - superb. We joked that we could eat the bread until we were full and then leave, it was so good. Then they brought our entrees with another french wine that they chose for us (we loved it). I had roast duck a la orange, and it was the first time I'd had duck. The meat was very tender and full of flavor with crispy skin. There were scalloped potatoes underneath the duck (the dish itself was beautiful), and they were also delicious. We split the creme brulee (their specialty)for dessert with coffee, and it was the perfect end to our meal.

We would give this restauarant four stars for its authenticity, decor, atmosphere, and service. The prices were excellent considering the outstanding quality of our meal.
