About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Innovative
  • Romantic
Alex H was originally opened as “Gourmateque Restaurant” in 1982, located on St-Hubert street, it was already making headlines for it’s great food. Most notably the home made lasagna, still found on our menu on occasion. The man behind this was Alex himself.

Alex already had restaurant experience from some of Montreal’s greatest, such as, the Royal Embassy, Mother Martin, Grand Motor hotel, Elmridge country club, and the Ritz Carlton to name a few. Alex had decided he would want to offer the same fine dining experience at a more affordable rate.

Established in 1990, the original Alex H (on Monkland street) was family run for 10 years, until 2000, when it moved to Sherbrooke street where it is still found today.

Today a family trio runs the kitchen, Alex, his daughter Maria, and his son Edward. Every night they cook your meals with pride we hope you’ll take the chance to experience the pride and care that goes into making every dish at Alex H. Please BYO Liquor.

    There was live music in this very small restaurant- not suitable for this restaurant as the area is very small I found the music annoying and very unnecessary…

    We had a very pleasant evening. The food was delicious, magret de canard, carrot and cabbage soup and chocolate mousse for dessert. The hostess is very nice and attentive.

    Food was ok, nothing extraordinary. Not a lot of choices. Gnocchis with sauteed mushrooms lacked some grilling and seasoning, it was very bland. The rest was good.

    Meals were excellent, but service was slow, understandable with such a small staff on a busy Saturday night. Still, it was frustrating having to wait so long for our orders to be taken. However, given the food quality and value, we will return.
