Excellent food and staff. The food is amazing and the entire cooking staff top notch! We sat at the bar and got to watch the chefs in action. Incredible!!! Thank you to Micheal and Hugo for making us feel so welcome! This is one of the reasons we went to Montreal and they did not disappoint!!! Can’t wait to see you all again!
If you're looking to indulge, this is the place for you. Their takes on a beef burger and mac and cheese are amazing and decadent (foie gras on everything). The duck tartar roll was also delicious and surprising, since I didn't expect any Japanese sushi style food here. I came here once over 10 years ago and it still one of my favorite places to eat.
The staff was attentive, helpful, and fun to interact with. Walked in 5 minutes before our reservation and the table was ready. Our waitress Samantha helped us navigate the menu and find perfect beer pairings. Can't wait to come back to this place.
We heard about Au Pied de Cochon on a YouTube guide to Montreal, and went with high expectations which were exceeded in every possible way. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, she custom made a non alcoholic mixed drink for my pregnant wife, and all our food was prepared and plated expediently despite being nearly full. We got the chicken liver mousse stuffed maple bacon donut first. That's a lot of modifiers but they all came together to make the most incredible sweet yet savory, decadently rich appetizer. Then we had the braised pork shank with risotto, a dish for two, and were blown away with the tender and complex meaty flavors. It must have been cooking all day. Last we had the maple pie, which I'll admit wasn't my favorite dessert but still was tasty and a nice complement to some after dinner coffee. I can't recommend Au Pied de Cochon enough, and I only hope I have the opportunity to come back to Montreal for another go.
