We came here after work as a group, it was a Thursday night and the place was a bit empty. The service was great and quick, staff was very friendly and welcoming. We ordered a few appetizers for the table such as tuna tartare, shrimps and baked brie cheese, which tasted delicious!!! I had steak and fries for main, my colleagues had different dishes and everyone enjoyed their meal. It looks like it could be a nice place for a romantic dinner, if you are looking for one.
The crepe with beef is great! The onion soup a symbol of French cuisine in their preparation - I don't like it, I guess they use the cheapest onion and the dish smells, I don't recommend. Smoked duck is nice, a little dry, but maybe it is supposed to be that. The mashed potatoes they put on the siding was not worth the restaurant level, they also put onion in it. Beer. Bottled IPA comes from Goose brewery opposite the street - good, however, draft one is lower than average as well as most canadian beers. Hope wine is better, I did not try it. Btw, it is supposed to be a French restaurant, why do they have Chile on the menu? Honestly, we went there, because a very famous nearby Italian place was too busy 40 min wait time.
We decided to try something different and a little on the fancier side for our most recent date night and Le Papillon was the perfect spot as we don’t really do French cuisine. The place itself is gorgeous and has a lovely vibe. The service was exceptional right from the moment we entered the place. Good variety of drinks including wine and cocktails. For starters, we went with the much-hyped French onion soup, and it was DELICIOUS. I’d keep coming back just for the soup. Their crepes looked really tempting so we had to try one seafood and it did not disappoint. The Cassoulet was one of their top items and more on the meaty side. The portions were just the right amount. Their desserts were a perfect end to our lovely evening, especially their Pouding Chômeur! Overall it was an amazing experience dining at Le Papillon and would highly recommend it for a date night or just a casual evening with friends.
Surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night as there were quite a few empty tables in the restaurant. We got the escargot and french onion soup to start, then the classic coq au vin and smoked duck breast for our entrées. The service was generally good, except we found a piece of hair in our glass of water. The food was good as I expected but nothing to be excited about either.
Came here on a Saturday night, we had reservations for 6pm. The restaurant didn’t seem busy, when I walked in through the door I was greeted by the bartender who told me the hostess would be with me in a bit, ended up waiting for a while for her to finish her chat with a table. After waiting awkwardly at the front door for the hostess which never came a waiter finally took the initiative to direct me to my seating. Honestly I did not have high hopes for the food after reading the reviews and was not shocked after tasting it. Every dish that came out was cold and lacked flavour and salt. The appetizers came out so fast it was a little sketchy. What we ordered: French Onion Soups Deep Fried Brie Escargot Smoked Duck Breast Boeuf Bourguignon Bouillabaisse Steal and Fries Cassoulet The Deep Fried Brie was cold and tasted like regular mozzarella sticks at a pub, the Escargot lacked so much flavour. There was no garlic butter taste at all! The Smoked Duck Breast tasted like holiday ham and it was a super small portion. The beef in the Beef Stew was dry and the rice was al dente, Steak and fries were SALTY and the best thing in the Cassoulet was the piece of pork belly it came with. The only things that was good was the Bouillabaisse and French onion soup. 2 stars for the waiter that was super friendly and honest and the cocktail my cousin ordered. We also had a birthday cake $2.50 fee per person.
Just like any night out at a restaurant, you want to have a nice experience and be treated kindly. Le Papillon On Front gives you exactly that. The food is great, not mind blowing, but this place is perfect because it brings together everything you need to a beautiful dinner night out/date. The atmosphere is very nice and you are treated extremely well by the staff. The food is what you expect from a french restaurant and you will leave the meal being extremely satisfied. It is also in a great location any activities/tourism after the meal.
I wish I could give more than five stars because we had an incredible date night experience. The food was absolutely amazing! I especially loved the duck and crème brûlée. In addition, our server was extraordinarily friendly and professional.
Love the chicken liver pâté. Duck breast and tuna are fine. Ambience very good, traditional French restaurant style. Service was great. Would come again.
nice ambiance, excellent service and friendly staff. food was good, but dont expect a blissful gastronomic experience. escargot would be better if served in the shells with escargot tong and had more garlic & butter. crepe de la mer was so delicious i would visit again just for it. portion of duck breast and new york steak were kinda small but taste good. burnt sugar layer of creme brulee was way too thick but i like the pudding part. wine was solid, nothing to criticize.
Lovely French bistro. Warm & welcoming. Nice menu, reasonably priced. Enjoyed the Hugo cocktail, French onion soup a little thick but wonderful flavor & bœuf bourguignon so delicious!. Service was great.
