Mon Ami is quaint and ducky so it hurts. The couple running it are the most welcoming and charming hosts. The menu mixes duck, duck, duck and some French and Scandinavian influences in a lovely classical preparation. The duck dish count running for 22 years stands at 45,379 on our visit; we add a couple. There is a wine wall instead of a wine list and a lovely tiny garden for al fresco dining. All in all, Mon Ami is irresistibly cosy and romantic, such a good vibe.

We had a delightful date night dinner here this week. I am not usually a fan of eating duck because I find it annoying to cut around the bone. I had a boneless breasted fillet though and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There were four different duck dishes on the menu and we would definitely go back to try the others. The atmosphere was quaint and cozy. The owner worked on the floor and was warm and hospitable. We will definitely endeavour to return in 2026.

The building is delightful inside and out; the service was good. However I had steak and it wasn't a pleasant meal - flavour-wise and quality of meat (tough). I had to leave some bits on the plate . The soup sounded so much more interesting and complex on the menu than it tasted. For me, the reason to go out is to have something I couldn't cook at home; in this case I've done better at home cooking a steak. Their specialty is duck and perhaps that's the dish to order.

Cute as a button tiny French bistro on the city edge in Carlton. Close tables and felt like being in Paris. Delicious classic French with a few twists in the mix as a salute to owner Finnish heritage. We had a birthday celebration and ended up surrounded by birthdays and anniversaries at the various tables .. much mirth in multiple renditions of happy birthday and happy chats between a few of our tables! The omelette, melty Brie, Scallops, duck risotto, confit duck cheese and brûlée and d’affinois for dessert! Yum.. 2 person restaurant chef and server! Good service old fashioned and lovely .. very enjoyable.. will return !

From the moment entering, to eating then to paying It felt like I was home being treated with the respect family would treat one another. Amazing atmosphere Amazing people Thank you Chef for being a genius with food Heres to you both Cheers 🫶
