La Demande Generale - Montréal

It was freezing in Montreal and we were looking for comfort food. I had visited Rue St Denis as a college student 35 years ago and wanted to show it to my son. While Rue St Denis seems to have not weathered the 35 years so well this restaurant was a great find. My son and I had the poutine with shortrib and my husband had duck tartar. We came in the middle of the afternoon during a weekday and it was not very busy. The ambiance is very nice and the owner was very personable.

Well prepared and presented plates. Food was tasty although Mushroom Risotto lacked a bit of seasoning. Entrée of shrimp and scallops was amazing especially with the accompaning sauces. Thank you for a nice evening!

Dinner with my mom and sister while in town for a few days! Great vibe, fantastic service and food was great! Shared the shrimp and scallops to start and then all got a blackboard special (duck and pork) and all very tasty. Good upbeat atmosphere and fun music.

Food was ok !! Will no going back for sure ! Good thing was not to expensive ! Thank you

Service was disorganized, different waiters coming to our table, one taking away the wine glasses without asking if we wanted wine (which we did). It took 1hour and 20 minutes to have our food. We had 20 minutes to eat and pay, we had tickets for a show. When ready to pay, all checks were mixed up. Not a nice evening...
