    The resto is lovely. Great, friendly and helpful staff. The music was too loud. The food was good, but we found it expensive. One of the guests ordered scallops and the price for the plate was $49.00 and she only had three small scallops, very disappointing. The dessert was good.

    Service was very slow - took an hour to get main courses. A number at the table ordered the steak frites and agreed the beef was quite tough

    Belle expérience à la Brasserie Henri. Bonne ambiance festive du temps des fêtes. Nourriture excellente, belle présentation et bon service personnalisé. Salade de betteraves succulente. Bon hamburger et profiteroles au chocolat fait maison.

    Excellent repas, bon service, mais 7 $ pour une bouteille d'eau Evian, facturée à notre insu, c'est un peu ordinaire. Une brasserie de cette qualité devrait être en mesure d'offrir l'eau plate à ses clients. Il se pourrait que, pour cette raison, nous n'y retournions pas. Ce ne sont pas les bons restaurants qui manquent à Montréal...

    Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le service à l’accueil et de notre serveur. Les huîtres étaient excellentes et le tartare de bœuf aussi. Notre recommandation serait d’avoir, à titre de brasserie française, des frites minces, blondes et croustillantes, comme en France, et non des frites molles et brunes à la québécoise… Il y avait aussi beaucoup de groupes, un peu bruyants (sûrement à cause de la saison), ce qui rendait l’atmosphère un peu moins « cozy » que d’habitude.

    Visited on a Sunday for brunch. Normally a brunch involves breakfast and lunch choices but this had like 6 choices on the menu. Service was slow considering it was empty. Breakfast came with 2 half piece of toast was pretty bad for a 28$ omelette. Will not be back

    The Henri Brasserie has beautiful design and decor and background music. The waitress was very pleasant and professional. The issue with the poor service is the lack of staff. Our before dinner drinks arrived after the appetizer! It took about 25 minutes to get them. They need to hire a few more bartenders to keep up. In fact, the table next to us cancelled their drinks because the wait was too long! Food was good. Again, service from the kitchen is slow. Maybe short staffed here too? Considering that you would expect a high end experience at Henri Brasserie, we were disappointed. Management has to step it up.

    L'ambiance et le service étaient impeccables. Toutefois, la valeur de la nourriture - à mon avis - qualité vs prix était juste bon
