Le Filet Restaurant Review:


Have you ever ordered an entrée only to find you want the dish your companion is so overtly enjoying? It’s not a problem at Le Filet, the slightly more casual offering from the culinary team behind Le Club Chasse et Pêche. The menu is divided into small plates, tasting menu or large tapas-style sizes, and you’ll need at least three for a full meal, making this one of the most expensive restaurants in the area. But you pay for quality, and your money is well spent on the menu predominantly made up of well-prepared seafood. Start with oysters, fish or mussel soup, and then move on to cavatelli with foie gras strips and veal cheek, tuna tartare, egg confit and nori tempura. Wine tip: Identify a knowledgeable wine server before you select your wine, as not all the waitstaff is as grape-savvy as you might wish. The décor is a first-date winner with dimly lit corners and contemporary backlit aquarium art (see it before you ask questions). In summer, request a terrace table overlooking the park (with Mount Royal in the distance).
