Fantastic menu with amazing ingredients and cooking. Service and atmosphere were excellent. Each dish has a wine pairing in the menu from appetizer to dessert, which makes it easy for people not familiar with wine.
Cute French restaurant, cozy and beautiful decorations. Good for a romantic couple, or for a small group dinner.
We ordered a variety of "petites bouchées", they were okay, but for the price was reasonable.
As for starters, I recommend the beef tartare, it was great.
For the main meal, we ordered the AAA beef steak, rare-cook. Very tender. The highlight was the sauce was made of red wine and the caramelized onions on top of the steak, because without it the steak is a bit tasteless.
Another great thing is the "creme brûlée", it was not too sweet and well balanced for a dessert.
Overall, the place and service were the highlight.
For a French restaurant, the meals were not the best, but their price were very reasonable compared to other places.
4/5 Stars
Cozy French restaurant In Montreal. Dishes are all tasty but there’s not much wine selections. Staff are friendly and helpful, and I loved the atmosphere.
I went here with a friend who had been many years ago, and said it was one of his favorite restaurants in Montreal. I can see why. Very cozy and quaint, with spectacular service and some of the best food I’ve experienced in Montreal. They do not have an extensive cocktail list, but their food and wine options are diverse and amazing. The proprietor, who I think served us that evening, was lovely and kind and patient, despite the fact that our French isn’t very good. I will definitely be recommending this place to friends visiting the city.
Great little french bistro. Love that they offer half bottle of wine. 4 stars because there was a bit of a wait between entrée and main.
It was so delicious. I really enjoyed the food.
La crème brûlé . Yummy Yummy

Visiting our daughter on Montreal ....had an absolutely amazing meal...everything from the wine to soup to salad to the main plate and then dessert was so very well prepared and presented. Staff was thoroughly attentive yet we were able to share a nearly three-hour leisurely meal. Highly recommend Au Petit Extra....cannot wait to eat there again :)
Lovely bistro with pleasant waitstaff. Restaurant was very clean and inviting. Food tasted very regional. Loved the experience
AMAZING!!! Huge portions, cooked to perfection, great staff that didn't seem to judge us at all if we weren't dressed up or using a coupon. What a wonderful experience for two newly engaged young adults from Toronto.
...and we haven't even had our dessert yet! Just had to review right away.

I was slightly taken aback by the long wait before being served our food, but I'm told this is typically French. It wasn't unpleasant, and allowed us ample time to talk. I think I would've enjoyed it more had I been expecting it.
The service was great, and the waiters were polite and attentive without hovering.
The food selection was elegant, and everyone of our party was impressed, be it with the duck, rabbit, salmon or the mushroom risotto. The portions were perfectly sized, and the atmosphere and decor of the restaurant were charming.
A very refreshing experience, highly recommended!
