Reviews of Chef Tang describe delicious, generously portioned Chinese and Thai takeout with friendly, attentive service and reliable overall flavor. Dishes like general tao and salt and pepper shrimp are often highlighted as standouts, with chow mein also praised and portions noted as large for the price.

There is curiosity about the service charge and transparency about where it goes, with comparisons to other local spots that do not add such a charge.

Bar Social Verdun presents a mixed picture, with some reviewers praising the welcoming vibe, friendly staff and versatile events such as quizzes, karaoke and drag shows, while others find cocktails overpriced or inconsistent in quality and value, as in an expensive Manhattan that didn't meet expectations.

Food proposals receive varied notes too, with items like mozzarella sticks, patatas bravas, miso carrots and an endive blue cheese salad cited as tasty, though a menu change disappointed some guests who missed earlier appetizers. The drinks program is described as creative and enjoyable by many, with attentive service and helpful staff, while occasional comments point to menu changes and pricing not always aligning with expectations. Overall, Bar Social Verdun seems to be a popular hangout for drinks and social events, valued for its ambiance and staff, with room for improvement in drink consistency, pricing and menu variety.View restaurant profile

Giwa stands out in Montreal as an elevated Korean spot with a cozy, intimate vibe and a small, thoughtfully curated menu that rewards attention to detail. The room feels private and homey, while the focus on precise sotbap rice dishes provides a foundation of texture and a crisp, nutty crust at the bottom, and the banchan is handmade to accompany each course.

Feedback on Jugo Juice highlights quick service and fresh juice overall, with mixed views on the menu changes. The new menu is not as good and the granola quality has declined, and some popular smoothie bowls were removed, while blending is inconsistent, leaving chunks of frozen fruit in the bowls.

Instances of standout customer care include a wrap made to order on the spot and a strawberry fantasy that impressed the reviewer, contributing to one of the best experiences at Jugo Juice.

Da Vinci is described as an elegant, welcoming Italian spot where the atmosphere and attentive service can elevate celebrations, with private rooms and thoughtful touches noted as a plus, but several reviews flag value and consistency as concerns. Valentine’s Day menus were fixed per person and portions were small, featuring a shared burrata salad and bite sized desserts while lobster ravioli appeared as a regular portion. Service ranges from subpar in some visits, with no drink menu and rushed service, to exemplary when staff are on point and attentive throughout the evening. The kitchen turns out flavorful dishes such as pasta Bolognese, mushroom risotto, lamb, tomahawk steak, black cod, and salmon tartare, and desserts and drinks are occasionally praised. However, the price level is criticized by some as too high for what is delivered, while others feel the overall experience justifies it. Overall, Da Vinci emerges as a refined option with strong service and solid Italian cooking, best enjoyed when expectations match the pricing.View restaurant profile

CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice reviews show a tea base that stands out and bubble tea that many enjoy, with the tea flavor coming through more than milk or sugar, and the space described as spacious and conducive to studying or working. The vibe is chill but service quality varies from friendly to a bit cold, and prices are noted as higher than some rivals while others find value in simpler options. There is interest in adding flavors such as passion fruit yakult, while the boba is generally decent but not always the freshest. Some ingredients feel healthier while others taste more chemical, and cleanliness is mixed with one note about unclean restrooms though tables are kept tidy. Overall impressions combine solid drink quality and a comfortable environment with occasional inconsistency in service, price, and ingredient options.View restaurant profile
