Taken together, the reviews point to a place that delivers memorable dishes for many while showing inconsistent execution for others. Overall, Tassot Créole tends to stand out for certain dishes and the atmosphere, but the feedback includes notable caveats about performance.View restaurant profile

Mister Paté - Montreal Creole, Haitian, Caribbean Restaurants
Restaurant

Mister Paté

Open until 9:30 pm
(20)

Review Summary

Mister Paté draws a mixed consensus: the pate is described as very good by some, with reports of driving two hours just to try them, but others say the recipe has changed since earlier visits and the latest batch tastes less fresh and the overall quality has declined while prices stay the same. Service is noted as inconsistent, with mentions of impatience at the counter and varying levels of friendliness. The cash only policy and lack of change require a nearby ATM and add friction, especially for those arriving near closing time. Despite affection for the product and nostalgia for past visits, the reviews suggest a hit or miss experience, and some notes include praise in French and Haitian Creole about how good the pate is.View restaurant profile
