About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Great for fine wines
Chef Chuck Hughes and Chef Christopher Merrick collaborate to offer a mind bending experience at this Old Montreal landmark. Over the top tasting menus in a supremely unique historic building, complimented by outstanding service, an unparalleled atmosphere and deep, notable wine selections.

*Please note that we have a full bar permit, which in Quebec means NO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 ALLOWED.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Christopher Merrick

From the OpenTable editors: It’s always a scene at this small but lively restaurant in Old Montreal from Iron Chef America winner Chuck Hughes. A massive, ornate chandelier frames an all-out meal where you can order a seafood tower, lobster agnolotti, and hangar steak in onion sauce, all served in a cozy, old stone building. Or let the chef decide and pick from four to seven courses for a memorable night out.

    I go to Garde Manger whenever I come to Montreal. The warmth of the room, the incredible seafood and the expertise and kindness of the staff make it wonderful every time. I was so glad to finally take my daughter there! Thanks to Julian at the back bar especially ❤️❤️

    Nous avons décidé de prendre le repas du chef qui inclus 5 plats. J'ai adoré mon expérience, le service était impeccable et les plats étaient délicieux. C'était amusant de ne pas savoir ce que nous allions avoir. Je recommanderais Garde-Manger

    Amazing experience at Garde Manger as usual! David at the front does a great job with his staff. All professional and very pleasant. Food was great. Snow crab brioche was best thing on menu and apple salad! Ox tail agnoletti is a must, I could eat that forever! We got all the desserts and the coffee cake and spice cake are unreal. Look forward to next time! Cocktails by the bartender were also great!
