I am so glad we used trip advisor to find this GEM - it is a very small restaurant filled with French foodies, and so you know it must be good. The portions were a great size, well priced, and sooooo incredibly delicious - the duck with berries was phenomenal! There is only 1 waitress so take your time and... More

One of the best French international food restaurant. Excellent service! We came with children. There is no menu for children, but they arrange and prepare them a tasty dish for children!

The last time I went to this restaurant was in ... 1988 ! It has changed a bit since then. The food was generally very good - nice amuse bouche, delicious croustillant de Saint-Jacques (even though it was not croustillant!), a very nice pavé de boeuf with a cep sauce, and a very good desert. This restaurant is also very... More

The room was simple but the food was anything but. By 8:30pm all 29 seats (we counted) were filled, and the plates came at the right pace and were extremely delicious, fresh, and perfect. The 5 course meal was reasonably priced and filled out the evening nicely. The servers were courteous and patient with our questions about the dishes, and... More

Our meal was outstanding! I picked the place based on some TripAdvisor reviews and they were right! The service was terrific-a very enthusiastic and helpful young lady explained the menu in English. Our meals were creative and excellently prepared. There were 10 of us and we all loved everything! It is also reasonable. With a 3 course prix fixe and... More

I picked this restaurant based on the reviews on tripadvisor. I am so glad I did. I made sure to book as I knew it was a small place. It was excellent. I went for the 3 course menu including the cheese and dessert. I took my time as the portions were big. All in all you could not pick... More

We truly enjoyed this small, intimate restaurant located on Rue du Loup near the Ste. Catherine metro stop. During my 10 days in France on a recent trip, the steamed leg of chicken stuffed with cepes and foie gras was the best single dish I had. And we ate at several Michelin-starred restaurants. This treat appears on the menu for... More

My wife and I chose Croc Loup to celebrate my anniversary, and booked it well in advance. The restaurant is quite small, 28 couverts I presume, so to avoid being turned away it is higly recommended to make a reservation. I decided to be brave and order the 35 euros 3 plats menu, plus amuse bouche, fromage and dessert. My... More

The restaurant is quite small, appx. 28 covers, you must reserve ahead. We sat down at 8 PM and did not depart until after 11. The room does get quite warm, only the front door was open, so dress according to the season. Food is handled well by the one server, who knew the preparations well and was very organized... More
