Very good service but at this point these prices are getting out of hand! We get it! There's inflation but don't exaggerate. Montreal has become a cesspool of overpriced restaurants.

I'll happily state that the staff we were assigned were great. Knowledgeable about food & liquor & made the experience fantastic in that regard. What I will address though is that after much fanfare I was ultimately let down by the majority of food that my wife & I ate at the 6 party table. •Oysters • Tofu • Fillet Mignon with Bone •Half a dozen whiskeys Shared was:, bottles of mineral, coffees, cakes & the other 4 people's mains etc etc I'll state that my steak required a certificate in carpentry to cut. I'd estimate 10-15 full back & forth motions. This was the fillet mignon. Fat was not rendered, meat did not cut, meat was chewy & tendony & honestly had no flavour profile other than being charred & salty. As an Aussie, not the preferable kind either. I'll leave that at that. Nothing else needed saying if you cook your own steaks carefully & have worked with finer cuts of meat. You will not find that convenience if going out to get it here. A disappointment for a birthday outing. Tofu. Dry, hard, somehow over seasoned in the surface yet fibrous & bland throughout. Sides were fine for portion but carried the dish far more than its namesake. & I dare say that may have been an elevated rating given by the comparison of the tofu. Also whoever pulled our unspeakable espresso shots. Spem populo dare. Da illis semel As it is. Fine decor, exceptional wait staff, middling food. Reminds me a little of my military officer dinners.

Great ambiance, quality steaks & excellent service aimed to keep the customer curious, entertained & in the process making the time memorable. Kudos to Rashid & team for a wonderful evening yesterday serving our group of about 12 people. Now to the main course - the food... If you visit this restaurant, do order the seafood tower - you're welcome! Lobster, jumbo shrimp, crab, oysters - in an impeccable presentation. Appetizers - we ordered at the recommendation of Rashid a few - calamari, scallops, an engineered feat of a small pita with cheese & caviar put together at the table, & Japanese Wagyu samplers- the entire team thoroughly enjoyed the starters. At some point someone asked if we even needed any steaks! Now to the steaks. Rashid brought out a bunch of cuts to explain the different nuances - it was obvious that he's done it a few times, as he went through it seamlessly! Most of the team were intrigued by the bone-in fillet mignon, an 18 oz, roughly 2" thick steak with enough marbling to render a juicy steak after it hits the 1500 degree Celsius coal fired grill. The second crowd favorite was the Cowboy steak. Verdict - from an ambiance & service standpoint, I rate the restaurant & it's crew as 5 stars. On the seafood - 5 stars again, a rarity from my side to rate seafood at a Steakhouse for 5 stars. & the ratings for the steaks - 4 stars. & my reasons for not rating them at 5 stars. Start with the Japanese Wagyu samplers - I didn't find the Wagyu samplers to be in the top category comparing similar samplers I've had in the recent past, most notably Blueblood Steakhouse at Toronto Casa Loma. The bone-in fillet mignon was unique & I've never seen this on a menu till now. It was cooked perfectly well & as you go closer to the bone, the flavors increase as well. I definitely enjoyed the steak. Overall, a quality Steakhouse with an excellent seafood offerings in the Montreal area, which I'll highly recommend for any connoisseurs of a good steak!
