About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Neighborhood gem
Chef/owner Marc Cohen cooks solo in this Michelin Recommended 24-seat restaurant in the heart of Montreal's coolest neighbourhood, the Mile End. The ever evolving tasting menu is defined by the seasons and aims to showcase the best ingredients Quebec has to offer, while supporting small farms and sustainable agriculture.

The cooking is precise but unpretentious, eschewing elaborate plating in favour of bold flavours. Marc practices whole animal butchery in conjunction with Lawrence's own butcher shop a few doors over, and bread, charcuterie and preserves are all home made. The extensive wine list is devoted to the work of small natural wine producers whose practices promote soil health and diversity and who's wines reflect both terroir and tradition.

The dining room is warm, intimate and quiet enough to have an actual conversation. Lawrence can accommodate large groups.

LAWRENCE IS OPEN FOR DINNER FROM THURSDAY TO SATURDAY

From the OpenTable editors: At this cozy restaurant, British chef Marc Cohen crafts seasonal tasting menus guided by local sourcing and respect for ingredients. Spring brings shellfish and fresh vegetables, while fall means heartier plates like blood sausage cappelletti and corn chowder with smoked sturgeon. The polished yet unfussy cooking and thoughtful wine selection make it a true neighbourhood gem.

Executive chef: Marc Cohen

    Delicious and inventive menu, very professional, attentive, and warm service, and lovely ambiance (low but good lighting, low noise level). Only two suggestions: the pace was a bit slow (nearly three hours for dinner) and the seats at the bar have no real back support, so sitting for nearly three hours was not as comfortable as it should be. Otherwise, a stellar experience.
