Visiting from NYC & was hoping to have some Caribbean food on our last night in Montreal.
Unfortunately, we did not have a good experience here. The service was extremely slow & unorganized. We waited about an hour just to receive our drinks & about an hour & a half for our food.
When the food finally arrived, the portions were very small for what we were expecting. My oxtail came with a small scoop of rice & only about four pieces of oxtail, & unfortunately, the oxtail was extremely salty. My sister-in-law said the jerk chicken was good, & my husband enjoyed the Rasta pasta, so there were a couple of positives.
The service was the biggest issue. Our food was initially brought to another table, placed in front of them, & then picked back up & brought over to us. Everything just seemed very disorganized. There also appeared to be people who were hanging out at the restaurant helping serve food, which was a little concerning.
Overall, the experience was disappointing, especially considering how long we waited. The restaurant has potential, but the service & organization definitely need improvement.
We will never be back but wishing the best to the restaurant.
First thing the food was off the charts. They have great food & I will not say no 10/10. The reason the 2 star review is mostly service. Everyone's nice but they have a really bad service flow. Almost 45 min until someone acknowledged us at our table to bring water or even ask what we wanted. Food came out pretty quick after that but we ordered another tapas, mind you tapas shouldn't be so hard to make especially if they even'Recommend' 2-3 for each person. Never received it. They forgot the drink & then ask us if we wanted the bill another 30 min after never getting our last tapas. Overall time was about 2.5 hours of just wasting time waiting. Food is good if you have the most time in the world. Please improve the workflow, would love to go again.
My experience at this restaurant none other than immaculate: I had a girls night out & safe to say we enjoyed delicious food , drinks & most of all amazing hospitality a great thanks to Esther & Lys for ❤?

I went there for a girls' night out, & it was an amazing experience. Esther & Lys provided exceptional service & made us feel so welcome throughout the evening. The food was delicious, the drinks were perfectly made, & the overall atmosphere was fantastic. We had a wonderful time & will definitely be back!
We had a super time at Alur on Sunday Evening ♥?. Jessica is amazing , so nice , the food was amazing , the Drinks , the music , the vibe.
I will definitely be back. 🤍
We had the oxtail, curry goat, mushroom fricassé (my favourite with its rich sauce) fried plantain & tacos, which were all very good. The Halo cocktail was original with its hickory smoke, which gave an extra sensory experience. However, it took at least 25 minutes to get the first cocktail & another 5 to get the second one - they should be served at the same time. & then another long wait for our food. Also, the men's bathroom seemed to be under construction, & there was no soap dispenser or paper towels/dryer in the women's. I believe the restaurant hasn't been opened that long & still needs to fix a few things to get things running smoothly. Although slow to get our food & drinks the service was friendly & attentive.
Our order was late due to a technical issue but the manager handled it very kindly & professionally. Alongside the really delicious food, we also had drinks on the house to make up for the wait! On point management, we left with a smile on our faces!
