Best French restaurant in Canada

T	Timothy Chau on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A magical night at one of my favourite Canadian restaurants! It was our third time at Europea and it never disappoints. We got the 10-course tasting menu, but unless you’re really hungry, we would recommend you choosing the 8-course as we were very full afterwards. Everything that we ate was delectable. Our favourites of the night were the crab cake (best crab cake I’ve ever had!), the foie gras and the lobster (and lobster cappuccino!). Although the food was amazing and the tour was a great addition, we felt the service to be lacking compared to our previous visit. Crumbs and dishes were not regularly cleaned off our table, and our server seemed rushed. Lastly, we all agreed that the “Canadian room” (you’ll know what I mean when you have the meal) was unnecessary and detracted from the experience. The tip jar in the room seemed like a cheap ploy. Otherwise, we would definitely recommend coming here.
R	Rich Figer on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nearly speechless at the experience of fine cuisine that JF extended. It was absolutely amazing and something that everyone (especially if a foodie) should experience! Words cannot possibly describe the end to end and thus I will say this is something you MUST try and experience yourself!
R	R M on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Incredible fine dining experience. The only negative comment I have is regarding our server’s reaction when we would say no to alcoholic beverages, she always seemed disappointed. Not sure if management tells staff to pressure guests into racking up the bill with alcohol or what, it was odd.
f	fio DoSa on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I went for the brunch experience, it was fairly priced but with more downs than ups. It started well, pastries were fresh and crispy. However, I couldnt understand the flow of flavours, neither plate had a conexion. The main course, I had the Salmon, was saltier than expected but the risotto de quinoa was the star of this poor show, nicely flame and well cook. The next course, which made us go to another room, increased my expectations, but again nothing to say, it was parcours. Next 3 courses, crepes, cotton candy and chocolates were ok. Because of the risotto of quinoa, I would go again but for dinner or lunch.
F	Flacco on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We received a very warm welcome from the staff upon arriving and walked into a beautiful and luxurious setting. As soon as we sat down, snacks quickly came and they were all delicious. I really liked the steamed mussels, and raw scallops. But I wished they would’ve come in two separate batches instead of all at once. Imagine 6-8 dishes explained to you, some hot some cold, all requiring your attention while you try to remember the ingredients that went into it. It was too overwhelming of a start. Their signature Lobster Cappuccino was great. The next courses, crab cakes and foie gras dumpling were okay, but left much to be desired. The main course for me was the biggest fault. My filet mignon arrived looking very pale brown and overcooked. Looked like oxidized meat. I’ve could’ve easily cooked a better steak at home. Just the eye of the meat had some pink, but if you cut into it, most of the meat was brown. It was probably sitting on the pass for a bit too long. The steak also lacked flavour. Maybe I just got a bad piece of meat. It just gave me the sense that the kitchen lacked cooking expertise and finesse. Maybe it’s all smoke and mirrors with no substance. The chef clearly loves the theatrics of a modern fine dining experience, borrowing tricks from Alinea and El Bulli. The mash potatoes that came with the steak had a pungent truffle aroma that didn’t really work. At some point the chef needs to realize he can’t just throw truffle oil on everything. Overall, I think this place has potential to be one of the better restaurants in Montreal, but it needs to focus on the cooking. As for desserts, I enjoyed the crepe dish. Hopefully, in a few years, the chef can refresh his menu and liven it up a little.
B	Brian Martin on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We went on April 23rd and had such a delightful time..The amuse-bouche was so wonderful and creative way to start the experience. The food is delicious and the presentation is gorgeous. The entire staff is so friendly and kind, especially Louis. It was our first time visiting, and we will definitely be returning on our next trip to Montréal.
