    We had a large group of nine people. The server was attentive and extremely knowledgeable of the menu and the wines. The music for the evening was perfect for our group and did not interfere with our ability to converse. The food: simply fabulous! Most of us had lamb and enjoyed every bite. Great wine list, too. We wholeheartedly recommend Modavie!

    Wonderful menu. Ate here two nights in a row. Everything was great. Service was very good. Wine by the glass is a bit pricey. But, overall a great value.

    An honest meal, nothing extraordinary. The fois gras comes with too oily breads. Filet mignon is good.

    Our server had recommended the braised lamb shank which ended up being slimy and cold and looked like a dog's breakfast. My partner and I were packed in like sardines in front of the loud live band with an unsteady table. There are definitely better options in old Montreal for a date night.
