Le Filet

The Best Restaurants of Montreal’s Plateau - Eater Montreal

"With more than a decade to its name, this Mont-Royal Avenue destination is celebrated for chef Yasuhisa Okazaki’s elegant seafood-laden menu blending French and Japanese influences. From the team behind Le Club Chasse et Pêche and Le Serpent, Le Filet is similarly chic and also a fine pick for a special night out." - Joel Balsam, Valerie Silva, Eater Staff

A Concierge's Recommendations for Montreal

"Game, Set, Match: Le Filet With a playful menu divided into sections named "warm-up," "game," "set," and "match" sections, Le Filet volleys some exceptional dishes at guests. Opened in 2011, the restaurant specializes in seafood but does an equally good job with meat dishes, including duck and venison. It comes recommended highly by Ritz-Carlton concierge Simon Bajouk.

"Trifecta’s elegant offerings come with pedigree: the chefs of Club Chasse et Pêche, Le Filet and Le Serpent want patrons to reproduce their refined dishes at home. With instructions online and ready-to-assemble ingredients provided, creating tuna tartare platters, wagyu beef with miso, and maple syrup pecan squares like the pros isn’t out of the questions. Order on Thursdays for Friday pickup." - Ivy Lerner-Frank

Loved my time here - we got seats by the counter which gave us a great view of the kitchen. The service staff were fantastic - professional, helpful, and friendly. The food was great with the standouts being the miso oyster (my favorite bite in Montreal) and the honey cake desert. We spent about 300 for two people (including tip) and reservations were required. Will definitely be back next time!

Easily in the conversation for the best restaurant in Montreal… I visit probably 4-6 times a year and it never misses.. The miso gratin oysters ARE the best app in the city, prove me wrong. Staff and service is as strong as the food.

What a beautiful place with the best service/staff! Everything was great, the lobster ravioli with sweetbreads was amazing. The maple syrup square made me think about my grandma’s sugar fudge (delicious). Thank you!!! ☺️

Finally had the chance to try the famous restaurant where you go after your tennis session. It is also a place I highly recommend if your looking for the best service in town and the best variety of fancy plates. Going there, we tried a lot of what is offered on the menu. To start, we ordered the miso gratin oysters. These are one the best things I tried in my life. It is a perfect combination of sweet and sea taste. After, we tried the cold corn soup with foie gras. It was very unctuous and fresh. We then ordered the octopus plate and the wagyu tataki. The octopus was not to squeaky and not to hard, perfectly smooth when we bit it. The wagyu was nothing to special but it was well cooked (medium rare). Moreover, we ordered the linguine plate, the lobster pastas plate and the gemilli pastas plate. All three were amazing. The linguine plate was not as good as the Daily catch restaurant do it but take it if you’re an amateur with this kind of plate. I didn’t really taste the lobster in the pastas but the sweetbreads that comes with it are my second favorite thing I ate between all the plates we ordered. The veel cheek that came with the gemelli pastas was very tender and tasty. Finally, I tried the maple syrup square as dessert. It was very simple but very comforting and not to heavy.

Had very nice French-Japanese meal at Restaurant Le Filet in Montréal Mile End neighbourhood. Food was excellent, ambience and service was good! Reservation recommended. Expensive fine dining restaurant, but food was good. Hope to visit again when in Montreal!

Really great. Fast, friendly service. All four appetizers were wonderful: tuna tartare, smoked salmon, yellow tail and octopus. We loved our squid ink pasta and fish specials. Excellent maple square dessert. Top ten Montreal dining experience.
