Tail Fox delivers exciting Asian fusion flavors with a chef driven menu that blends Korean techniques with French and Italian influences, presenting creative dishes in generous portions. The atmosphere is cozy yet lively, with attentive and friendly staff and a view of the kitchen counter that many guests enjoy, plus a strong drinks program. While service is usually warm and professional, a few visits note moments of being a touch inattentive during peak times and some prices feel high for the portions. Overall the restaurant reads as a neighborhood gem, with oysters, dumplings, crudo and other standout plates that balance bold flavors with refinement, and many guests look forward to returning to try the rotating menu.
My entire experience from start to finish with 9tail fox was incredible. The service was impeccable, everyone is so friendly & incredibly fun to talk to. The food was outstanding - the kimchi caesar (top 3 i've ever had), the dumplings & fried oytser mushrooms had the most incredible flavours. As a vegetarian, they have a ton of options! I will definitely be going back, as soon as possible !
Truly a remarkable restaurant, close to Lionel-Groulx Metro station! Inventive modern Korean Faire (with Italian influences) with a focus on shared plates. The burata, crispy dumplings, oyster mushroom tempura, & kitchen were all delicious. Well worth return trips.

We had a fantastic evening with excellent food & an amazing service! We'll never forget this extraordinary dinner! Great team & a very talented chef!🙏🤩👌
Beautiful venue. Perfect for date night. Food was tasty. Great service. Well executed. Pricier than your average chinese food, but in line with the locality.
This is my gf & I favourite date spot.
The food is excellent. We always sit at the bar, & are warmly welcomed by the kitchen & service staff. Listen to the kitchens recommendations !
The place is super cute, so many windows so there's a lot of natural light. It was easy to get there, it's close to the metro, the food was incredible & the staff were really kind & fun!

One of our favorite stops in Montreal. In four visits, haven't had a single menu item we didn't enjoy. The small kitchen bar (4 seats) are great seats. Service is excellent. Convenient to Atwater Market, Little Burgundy, & Lionel-Groulx Metro Station
I have to say this first, we were not the right crowd. The food in term of quality & execution was very good but it was'bland'/lacked insane amount of spices that comes with Asian food. I applaud the creativity for the fusion made in those dishes, but it just didn't suit my palate. Except the lamb, that was our favorite!
The prices aren't as high as I'd have expected for a more tapas style restaurant & the portions were generous.
Overall, I think 9 Tail Fox's food is good but for non Asian people or people wanted to try Asian food for the first time.
