9 Tail Fox est présenté comme une adresse coréenne fusion où les plats créatifs marient saveurs coréennes et touches françaises et italiennes, avec des ingrédients frais et une présentation soignée. L'ambiance est chaleureuse et conviviale, le service est souvent décrit comme attentif et professionnel, et la carte propose des portions généreuses avec des menus spéciaux qui offrent des expériences gourmandes lors d'occasions particulières. Les fruits de mer, les dumplings, le crudo, le tartare de saumon, le poulpe et les plats à partager sont régulièrement salués pour leur équilibre et leur créativité, tout comme les cocktails et l'atmosphère propice aux repas entre amis ou en couple. Certaines critiques mentionnent des prix élevés et, lors des soirées très fréquentées, un service parfois lent ou du personnel sous-effectif, mais l'ensemble des avis s'accorde sur la qualité exceptionnelle, la fraîcheur et l'originalité des plats, faisant de 9 Tail Fox une pépite du quartier et une adresse à revisiter pour découvrir de nouvelles associations de saveurs.
The menu at this place is my local favourite. Fresh & lively Korean flavours presented with French savoir-faire & heartiness. The kitchen service is relatively quick. The vibe is super cool, yet elegant. It's fun to be able to see the chefs working behind the bar. The wait staff are warm & very knowledgeable about the menu & wine pairings. My only quibble would be that when it gets busy, the staff are just a touch unattentive. Every visit has been wonderful & I look forward to returning soon.
Highly recommended! Bravo Chef Lee!
We had a wonderful dining experience at ???. Loved the lively atmosphere, attentive servers, & of course the food.
We tried 6 Korean forward dishes from the menu & had a pleasant surprise.
The food looked ordinary until you took the first bite. The delicious main ingredients were complimented by 8 different Devine sauces, I meant really different.
Chef Lee brought our taste buds on a journey, from simplistic to multilayer flavour. This restaurant is a hidden gem in plain sight!

A fantastic Korean fusion restaurant with a unique rotating menu of creative dishes. If you're lucky & it's available make sure to try their steak Galbi, oysters, & dumplings.
The food here never disappoints-love the subtle yet distinct nods to their Korean influence. It's fun to watch the chefs cook if you sit at the bar :) The staff is also very helpful & friendly!
We loved our meal at 9 Tail Fox! The food was flavorful & beautifully presented, with clear attention to detail. We tried the seasonal asparagus, oyster mushroom tempura, duck confit, steak & fries, & matcha yuzu cheesecake-all were fantastic.
The tapas-style, Korean-Western fusion dishes felt fresh & well-balanced. A great spot for a unique & satisfying dining experience in Montreal!
I went there last year but I've been meaning to leave a review.
As someone who has lived for a long time in Korea, I was curious about the fusion concept of it all. Well, I was very disappointed. The food is bland. Korean food has such strong flavors, it was a let down.
The fish was, of course, very fresh, so no complaints there. The Kim chi Caesar salad was a joke, none of it reminded me of Kim chi, I guess they called it that because they used cabbage?
Like many others said, the portions are small, so eat beforehand. Finally, when my friend & I left, we both said'yeah, I'm never going back there'.

Blown away by the delicious & innovative take on Korean cuisine- everything was good, & the fried jumbo oysters were insane. Service & ambience was top. Perfect for group events, we were so well taken care of. Will definitely be coming back!
My friend & I were really impressed with the food. Such great flavors & combinations. We will definitely come back. It is not authentic Korean food though it's just has some Korean inspired ingredients or flavors tossed into some of their dishes. More like western Asian fusion.
We are very particular & this discovery SCORED on all fronts. The atmosphere - it is a small trendy resto; servers are very personable & attentive. Then there is the fusion style korean cuisine with French overtones which was excellent - balanced, wonderfully creative. We will be back. Met the chef & servers Justin & Chanel !!
Every dish was exquisitely prepared with delicately nuanced Korean flavours mixed in with a French cooking style. We enjoyed & shared 8 different dishes & 2 desserts. Absolutely every dish was unique, delicious & had a beautiful presentation. Thank you Lee for an amazing meal & Chanel for your lovely service.

I loved the unique blend of Korean food with a European touch at this restaurant. The dishes were flavorful presented. The wine pairing recommendations were perfect, making the meal even more enjoyable. Great service & a cozy atmosphere, definitely worth a visit :)
I had such a good dine-in experience at 9 Tail Fox. They are almost like a French cuisine with Korean taste influenced. Galbi & Octopus was really good. Oyster was so fresh too.
Best meal I've had in a while. It's Korean fusion, so it's interesting & delicious takes on regular dishes with a Korean twist. I'm definitely going back to try the rest of the menu.

Food is absolutely fabulous & one can see they take considerable time to prepare the food (marinating) before the actual cooking. Tastes are definitely not traditional Korean but fusion , however, are very likable & creative. The portion is small but IMHO, considering the preparation they took & the food taste, it does deserve the charged amount & they aren't crazily priced as well. Service is good & attentive. However, our server can spend a bit more time studying the menu details. Definitely recommending 9 Tails Fox & will return.
Very creative Korean-ish food. Dumplings with soy sauce & truffle oil, kimchi pancake with a baby shrimp salad on top, pleurotte mushrooms crispy fried. I didn't try any if the meat dishes but the tonkasse, duck & fried chicken all disappeared. Staff was incredibly friendly. The music was good (but a little too loud). On a great restaurant street, this was a great find.
Had a chance to sit in terrace on the perfect weather! The food is always amazing. I love how they twist authentic Korean dishes with various interesting flavours! The dumplings, donkatsu & kimchi fried rice are my all time favourites. The service was very nice & welcoming. I really loved the whole atmosphere. I'll visit again soon :)
For the price, the portions are very small. Food is generally a bit bland or too salty. It's supposed to be a korean fusion restaurant, but all the korean inspired food do not really have any distinct korean flavour. Kimchi seasoning, jjampong, etc. do not taste like how they should. Just a "generic asian flavour". Service was decent, but could be better. Pouring water by reaching over the table & blocking the guests instead of pouring from the other side of the table, serving 5 shrimp chips for a table of 3 (like come on, the shrimp chip cost what, 5 cents each?). The atmosphere was okay but they leave the windows open & there are people smoking cigarettes & weeds on the streets & you can smell it all.
Upscale korean food. Extremely delicious oysters. New takes on korean classics. This place was outstanding the chef & cooks here are doing an absolutely phenomenal job. The service was very good as well I never had an empty glass & everyone was very nice. I definitely want to come back.
