Le Mitoyen — Restaurant in Laval (administrative region)

A Culinary Extravaganza in French Delights!

Our recent dining experience at this exquisite French cuisine establishment left us utterly delighted and gratified. We embarked on a gastronomic journey like no other, indulging in the finest offerings of the menu. From the moment we stepped foot into the restaurant, we were enchanted by the elegant ambiance and warm hospitality.

The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the prime rib, a succulent masterpiece that weighed a generous 32 ounces. Cooked to perfection, the meat was tender and juicy, melting in our mouths with every savory bite. The blend of herbs and spices infused in the prime rib added a remarkable depth of flavor that left us craving for more.

To complement our meaty indulgence, we decided to savor a magnificent lobster dish, which turned out to be nothing short of culinary art. The lobster was flawlessly cooked, boasting sweet and delicate flesh that was simply divine. Each morsel evoked a sense of luxury that we relished with every passing second.

Not only did the flavors tantalize our taste buds, but the presentation of the dishes was a feast for the eyes as well. The plating was immaculate, and every element on the plate was arranged with precision and creativity. We found ourselves marveling at the artistry that went into every dish, appreciating the attention to detail that elevated the entire dining experience.

Accompanying our main courses were a delightful array of vegetables, which served as a refreshing and wholesome addition to our meal. Freshly harvested and expertly cooked, they complemented the main dishes harmoniously, enhancing the overall symphony of flavors on our palates.

The attentive and knowledgeable staff ensured that our needs were promptly met, and they were always ready to provide insightful recommendations, enhancing our dining experience further. It's evident that the restaurant takes great pride in delivering impeccable service and leaving no stone unturned in making guests feel pampered and content.

Our visit to this French cuisine haven was nothing short of extraordinary. The 32-ounce prime rib and the delectable lobster, coupled with the delightful vegetable medley, created a meal that we'll fondly remember for years to come. The exceptional presentation, warm hospitality, and divine flavors culminated in an evening that earned five stars without a doubt. We wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to all culinary enthusiasts seeking an unforgettable dining adventure.

Bravo to the talented chefs and dedicated staff for a truly remarkable experience! We eagerly look forward to returning soon for another...

So first of all we were at the table of 4 like referenced in the negative review from Biana. Everyone else had a stellar meal and the service was exceptional. We've asked her to remove the completely unfair review but so far it's still up so we felt no choice but to leave a review of our own.

This is not the first time we invited her someplace and although everyone else had a great experience she ordered something she didn't like. Let me put it in perspective. The wagu steak was a luxury item more than 3 times the price of everything else on the menu. If u order something like that you take the chance to see if you like it and if it's worth doing for you again. As stated in review it was OK so essentially just It was not matching HER expectations.

In this case the rest of us feel it was a case of buyers remorse. Imagine being the waiter and someone makes a scene perhaps even in an attempt to return a very expensive meal that simply one person doesn't like. Sure if you don't like a $30-40 meal you can do that.. bring me something different please.. this is not to my liking.. but no you can't do that with a $140+ wagu steak. If YOU don't like it tough. Don't order it next time.

The waiter otherwise was perfect and we felt very welcome as he was personable and attentive. There was just nothing he could do about Biana in that situation.

We do not support that review and since we brought her there we feel responsible and apologize for putting the restaurant in this position. Not only was our fantastic meal partially ruined by her attitude (premature departure) and subsequent review (which came in while we were still at the restaurant), but now a fantastic restaurant and great waiter has been defamed unfairly.

Please pay no attention to that review and come see for yourself. It's a great restaurant and other people agree with us in countless reviews! Again.. We've asked her to reconsider her stance but, that failing, perhaps it's best that we simply not include her from now on in our...

From 2003 to 2008 I was travelling to Montreal every three weeks and staying in Laval. I first tried their tasting menu in I believe 2006 and was absolutely blown away. I have also enjoyed their alla carte and table d’hôte items which are fantastic. I am a physicist and food chemist who has published in the area and continue to run research in the area and since that first tasting have been back several times. Since 2008 I’ve have the privilege to have travelled the globe and have eaten in many of the world’s best restaurants. To date, however, I have never found a restaurant that produces absolutely perfectly balanced dishes, tasting menus and wine pairings. The chefs and sommelier are absolutely on point and in my opinion out perform many of the Michelin star restaurants I’ve eaten at. The dishes are balanced and delicious, the wines are extraordinary, the service is absolutely top notch and the atmosphere perfect. Also the only tasting menu I have experienced where one is really satisfied and full (!) by its conclusion. This year alone I have intentionally driven from Toronto to Montreal (1200 km round trip) twice with a colleague just to experience Le Mitoyen. Anyone in the area (I.e., Montreal) should consider making the trip as I would be hard pressed to believe anyone who enjoys these experiences will be disappointed. To many more years and experience...
