| - Before I begin my review, I have to say thanks to their wonderful bartender (whom I unfortunately forgot the name of), I'm satisfied giving the 4 stars. (Not even going to mention our server the second time, otherwise, it would be much less).
Referring to my better experience, Brassière Lucilles is a well known restaurant in Westmount, with the spotlight on their seafood, more specifically, lobster dishes.
The vibe in the restaurant is always very uplifting and lively. People chatting, laughing, or just coming for a quick date night. I would say the crowd has seemed to be a mix of younger/older professionals.
Back to my experience: I grabbed a seat at the bar and started going through the menu, while starting with a bottle of wine. Their wine list is not too extensive and they were out of the sparkling wine I had first picked, but settled for a bottle of old school Chateau Maris. Deciding what to eat, they had a decent variety of options. I chose a whole lobster because after all it is what they are known for. Before I knew it, the whole lobster was on its way. The food came out relatively fast. While it was exactly what I ordered, it did not have anything surprising or special about it. Nothing to complain about, just no WOW factor. I then ordered the lobsters rolls and they definitely had more flavour and savouriness to them.
A bonus is they are open on Sunday.
After a couple bottles of wine, a martini, and my meal, you are expected to pay quite a bit. I suppose you are mostly paying for ambience. I was happy to pay and enjoy the rest of my night.
