text: My friend who lives in Montreal recommended this secret little gem while we were visiting in the summer We were looking for French food but less expensive than what your generic google search would spit out I really got to give them stars as my experience was impeccablennThe food was excellent at every point along the way Several different kinds of locally baked breads and a wide wine selection along with our waiter who recommended a great wine choice which made way for several different appetizers for each persons taste I got the escargots which were far better than ones I had tried previously made with a simple garlic and butter sauce Their basic salad with other prix fixe meals was also lovely and the cheese plate was great as wellnnChoosing my actual entree was not as simple Had I asked more questions perhaps I would have chosen differently but one of the specials was locallysourced crab legs That I got to crack myself And wear a bib In publicnnAnyway goes without saying that it was flawless The crab was in a classic butter sauce and it matched the other veggies on the dish perfectly Highly recommended from myself although they may not have it when not in seasonnnLastly as a visitor and Englishspeaker being in Montreal is always a little tricky I speak some French however I was with my brother and his girlfriend who were not as versed in the menu and style of dining As rude as some people were in some parts of Quebec the waitstaff and bartenders at Chez Leveque were very accomodating and really wanted to give us the best experience possible and bridge the language gapnnI really cannot say enough great things I loved it there and it was a very pretty interior The upstairs is a little more laid back for group events and the bathrooms are modeled after a church It just works do not ask me how
