Great food and relaxed environment. Appetizers were solid. Waiters gave us plenty of time to enjoy and chat. My med-rare steak was perfect. Excellent mid week locale for a family or business meal. Fantastic views of Montreal.

It was an amazing night to celebrate my 50th birthday month. My husband , and I drove to Montreal and stayed 3 nights, fours days after attending my husbands niece’s wedding in Toronto. The view was amazing, especially at night. I had the view of St. Laurence river, and the La Grand Roue de Montreal, to which we ride on it in the morning, best way to see the city from up high. My husband had the view of Montreal city hall, loved the different colours of lights at night. The restaurant was very busy, and vibrant with different pitch of noise, from the people in the restaurant and on the streets. The food was amazing, and our waiter Alex surprised me with a dessert bday on the house, and able to suggest to go to Dunn’s, as they have the best Reuben sandwiches in town, it’s one of my husbands favourite sandwich. Need to come back as we only had two full days to explore.

Absolutely loved our experience at Terrasse William Gray! The food, wine, and service was phenomenal, and the experience of eating in our private dome was so unique and romantic. This is definitely a must do for anyone in Montreal, especially in the winter time.

About the restaurant

Two panoramic views that will take your breath away
Panoramic views of the Old Port and St. Lawrence River on one side, amazing scenery from St. Paul Street on the other—the rooftop views from Terrasse sur l’Auberge paint a beautiful portrait of Montreal’s historic district. From late June to early August the skyline ignites with an array of colour during the International Fireworks Competition. There’s no better place to enjoy a prime view of these award-winning pyrotechnics. It’s also the perfect observatory to admire the illumination of Jacques Cartier Bridge, every night, at sunset.
