Be prepared to adjust your belt a couple notches after you chase it down with one of their maple syrup shakes ; probably the name of the condition you'll develop afterwards, too. Read more
Bill Addison: "The liver onslaught works best in dishes that emphasize contrast, like the lobster roll , garnished with hunks of foie , or the "canard en conserve" (duck in a can), another signature." Read more
Ultra rich artery clogging but tasty foie gras laced meat dishes. Foie gras (fg) poutine , shepherd pie , checkerboard blood pudding fg, hamburger fg and more foie gras . Delish over the top decadent!
The foie gras poutine and the PDC avec foie gras were really good. The crab salad was also remarkable. Top service, but there was definitely a problem with the kitchen: our meal took 1h to be served.
bread alone deserves an award. We ordered the hen & gnocchi and it was TO DIE FOR!they churned the ice cream in front of us as soon as we ordered dessert.Owner is so sweet and clearly knows his stuff.
Make reservations ahead of time. Service is excellent, staff is friendly . Portions are generous, you can ask them smaller portions, for most dishes. Sit at the bar to watch the food prep.
Literally half the menu involves foie gras . Everything else is an over-the-top treatment of offal & meat. In short , totally freaking decadent. And yes, get the Foie Gras Poutine . WinstonWanders.com
The ratio of sinks to toilets is not as extreme as meats to veggies . (I think I found a carrot piece in one dish) So get ur foie gras poutine , duck in a can and finish it off with a maple shake . Nom.
If you’re in Montréal, you cannot miss this place. Foie Gras nigiri ranks up their with some of the best sushi I’ve ever had. Duck in a can. Save room for a milkshake .
Amazing place! Fois gras poutin-delicious, bison tongue with tarragon-tender and well balanced. Duck in a can-tasty but on the heavy side (still good)! Seat at the bar and catch the kitchen action.
Foie gras everything! Even with a reservation you might end up waiting. Try their house brew and the rotating menu of specials. Signature foie gras poutine and duck-in-a-can are great, too.
Decadently delicious. Recommend starting with some light seafood to ease into the rest of the rich meal. Recommend the poutine , pork chop in duck fat , and the pouding chomeur .
Quite possibly the best restaurant in Montreal. Call way ahead of a reservation . They are famous for their charcurtie and their duck-in-a-can dish as well .
"Au Pied de Cochon is simply one of my favourite restaurants on the planet - and the Rabelesian Martin Picard one of my favourite chefs ." -Anthony Bourdain [Eater 38 Member]
This place is amazing! The atmosphere is great, everybody is cheerful and the food is awesome. The portions are big so be careful what you get as an appetizer because you might not make it to desert .
Fish quenelles were great, fois gras poutine of course! Duck in a can would have been the best dish anywhere else but was my least favorite here.
A carnivore's tasty but calorie laden delight! The usual; foie gras poutine , foie gras stuffed pig 's foot, 90-day dry aged steak and pounding chômeur.
Their terrines are delicious, and the pied de cochon with foie gras was amazing, yet enormous! That, plus a terrine and codfish fritters was too much for two of us (yay doggy bag!). Generous portions .
Right in the well known Plateau. A cult favorite for locals & tourists alike, their artery-clogging foie gras poutine is served in an amazingly unpretentious, casual , and friendly atmosphere .
Au Pied de Cochon is throwing out foie gras poutine , which is every bit as delicious as it sounds, though because duck liver is expensive , you'll have to hand over a few bills of your own.
Foie in many forms. Nigiri an tomato tart are good. Poutine is not as balanced. Get the Champaigne to pair with the food to cut through all the fat!
Might not be the right place if you have a heart condition but arguably the best French restaurant anywhere. Without the little nouveau cuisine portions. World class .
Try everything you can!!! All the food is amazing! And if you're lucky enough to be there when Martin Picard is there say hello. Super nice and loves to chat with the guests.
This place is amazing! Try the appetizer with Foie Gras ! And the the burger . All you need! To share
Eating here potentially took years off my life... But it was well worth it! The foie gras poutine was incredible
Try some pig dish and the foie gras poutine is also a classic. In the X-Mas period they make takeout menu that you must reserve . Everything is good. Cassoulet yummy.
However much you think you need, you need less: the food is delicious and very rich. Split a single appetizer and entree between two people. Don't miss the foie gras poutine .
Duck in a can and foie potine is to die for. Too bad the local is super noisy and doesnt allow you to have a normal conversation
Loud and overrated. Service areas face the tables with waiters shouting and scurrying everywhere. Dishes, including the poutine , are overloaded with salt. Avoid this nightmare. Photo taken from seat.
So much to love here. Top quality ingredients with the portion size and enthusiasm of a lumberjack after a long day. Come hungry.
Foie gras terrine was awesome (and enormous). The risotto is a show stopper. Duck in a can: amazing but so heavy.
fois gras poutine , best seafood platter in the city in the summer time. venison tartare and a crazy wine list ...this place is only for people in the know..and now you know
'The flavor of these roasted chickens only gets better when you reach the gnocchi and fois gras underneath at Au Pied de Cachon Sugar Shack.' -Andrew Zimmern, Bizarre Foods
The duck foie gras poutine is one of the richest, most decadent dishes I've ever eaten... I'd eat it everyday if I could. Do not leave without trying it!
the duck in a can is ridiculous- a must try.
By mixing highbrow products like foie gras with comfort foods like French fries or pizza , then adding a succulent selection of steaks and chops, the pleasure principle at PDC ensures a great meal. Read more
fois gras poutine is heaven! everything else is perfect as well . make sure u reserve a table ahead of time (about a week or so)
The foie gras poutine is life-changing. The duck-in-a-can is magnificent. This is the best meal I have ever had, without a doubt.
Pig 's feet and foie gras poutine were amazing. Very busy restaurant so make sure to book a reservation .
My favorite in Montreal. I love the terrine and pig works that they do. Some of the best pig feet that you’ll ever have. Also specializes in foie gras . -Rick Tramonto, Top Chef
They have the Foie Gra Poutine for take out if you can't get a seat. BYO-forks tho...
A foie gras poutine . That's all you need to know about this, the finest of Montreal's food trucks .
Excellent brunch . Small plates great prices amazing variety. Try the salmon head and the pain dore
The BURGER to die for. And foie gras poutine
Unbelievably good. The pork chop was the best I ever tasted. You also have to try the foie gras ball starter. Everything was amazing.
Best meal I had in Montreal. If you don't know what to order, just go with the waiter 's suggestions.
Skip the poutine with the foie gras and just get the fg. Warning: portions are enormous and excessive - the pied de cochon is basically a roll of fat topped with foie gras (more fat).
Cool place, delicious food but be careful with what you order because main plates are quite big
If you must eat fois gras , they do it well . Canard in a Can is kitschy but pretty tasty.
Everything is great! But indulge in foie gras !
Authentic french cuisine and very nice staff. Make sure to ask for the floating island for desert! - Sam Raissa
Try the Fresh crab meat with edamame beans - With egg, grissini bread, salmon roe, Parmesan - TastyMontreal
