Cocktail Bar Top Pick

Bar Le Mal Nécessaire

Exotic cocktail bar in Chinatown

Review Summary

Bar Le Mal Nécessaire is described as a chic, spacious cocktail bar with a tropical yet refined vibe that blends tiki flair with a premium cocktail experience. The cocktails are consistently praised for creativity, balance, and striking presentation, with standout signatures and some very strong options where the ABV is noted on the menu. The staff are repeatedly described as knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly, guiding guests through the menu and making the experience feel welcoming whether at the bar or a table. The atmosphere is often noted as upscale and lively, sometimes with live music or a DJ, which can make conversation a bit loud during peak hours. A few critiques mention the price point and the lack of food options, with many wishing for small plates to pair with drinks. The new location is larger and keeps the same high standard of service, though some reviews miss the character of the old venue. Reservations are advised to secure a seat, and the bar is frequently recommended for groups or a stylish night out.View restaurant profile

Cocktail Bar Top Pick

Huis Clos

Open until 3 am

(431)

Villeray-Saint-Michel Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie

Seafood/Fish French Tartare

Review Summary

Overall, Huis Clos is described as cozy and well kept with a warm neighborhood vibe, strong cocktails and attentive staff, where oysters and other seafood dishes are frequently praised and the atmosphere can be festive with music or karaoke; the kitchen is seen as thoughtful and the menu offers options for many tastes, though some dishes feel small or lack flavor and service can slow when crowds are large. A few critiques focus on the bathroom setup, including an impractical faucet and a roll of brown paper that seems unsanitary, creating a jarring contrast with the rest of the space. The place is considered a must visit in Villeray with a pleasant terrace in season. A rare hiccup at a raclette event involved an expired liqueur and missing ingredients, with staff offering a discount on cocktails or alternatives. In summary, Huis Clos comes across as a reliable spot for a warm and enjoyable night out with friends, good drinks, friendly service and a welcoming ambiance.View restaurant profile
