Came here with a friend for a little cocktail night out! It was walking distance from our hotel (the Sheraton) so we decided to give it a try! I ordered the Martingale & some fresh oysters. My cocktail was the perfect blend of strong, sweet, & citrusy. The oysters were also very fresh & paired well with the toppings!
We absolutely loved the vibe of this place-buzzing & lively but not too loud so we could hear each other while chatting. Would definitely recommend & I'll be coming back the next time I'm in the city!
The first time I visited this place was almost 10 years ago!
It's a great bar that makes quality cocktails with friendly knowledgeable service.
I've only ate the parmesan fries here so I can't really comment on the food. The fries were good though.
Super ambiance, non loin de la station de métro Peel, accueil super & service génial.
Ambiance chaleureuse & service rapide.
Belle découverte
The service is great & the food is delicious. We ordered a burger super well done & they made it exactly as we expected. The portions are big, especially the fries 🍟! Enjoy!😉
Visited for a couple drinks, def hit the spot! Service was amazing & our host was very friendly.
Excellent service, cocktail très bien travaillés & beau un décor. Je recommande a tout fan de fruits de mer & de bon cocktails. Incroyable service de la part de Olivier.
We used to go for nice, sit-down suppers at Dominion Square Tavern, but it seems to have become - at least on the recent Friday evening I was there with colleagues - a loud, dark, overcrowded'bar bar' full of the downtown lawyer / business crowd. I was the last to arrive at our table & spent the entire evening with either the waitstaff or the fellow seated across the aisle from us bumping into me, which I didn't enjoy. We ended up leaving to get supper elsewhere as we couldn't hear each other over the noise. I found it a far cry from the charming pub atmosphere that I remembered & I won't be going back on a Friday evening anytime soon. Food was fine - slightly elevated pub food. Drinks were about on par, price-wise, with other downtown options, though at one point out waitress said there would be a wait for refills as the bar was very backed up.
Loved it. A casual Sunday night with cocktails, good wine, food, company (,cute waiters) & a genuinely welcoming vibe & setting. We got the calamari & Caesar salad (with drinks of course!).
10/10. Would recommend.
Je pensais prendre un verre.
La musique m'a retenue. L'ambiance m'a attrapée. Les cocktails m'ont convaincue.
Même seule, on se sent instantanément à l'aise : accueil chaleureux, échanges naturels, good vibes.
& puis… soyons clairs 😅 : le staff est aussi pro que charmant, avec ce petit magnétisme qui change tout.
Résultat : une soirée qui ne devait pas durer… & dont on se souvient.
Adresse dangereusement agréable. J'y retourne.
The vibes in this bar are *gorgeous*-super aesthetic in a way you genuinely wouldn't expect from the exterior. I came for a friend's birthday & it was such a fun spot for a night out.
Cocktail prices are pretty much in line with every other downtown Montreal bar, so you're not really coming here for a'deal,' but the drinks were **really yummy** & well made.
Food-wise: we ordered the **party platter** & I honestly wouldn't recommend it. It's marketed as a mix of smaller appetizers in one platter, but it felt like only 2-3 actual items from the menu, with **a huge portion of the platter being crudités**-& it was **$74**. That said, the sauces/dips that came with it were amazing, especially the **chimichurri**.
The mains helped recover the experience a bit. I had the **burger**-it was a good portion if you want something heavier, but mine was a little dry & kind of cold. Not bad, just not extraordinary. The **fries**, though? Dangerous. Genuinely addictive-best'drunk bar fries' I've had in a while.
Service was another standout: the waitress & staff were super hands-on & attentive, which we really appreciated. Overall, the drinks & ambiance were the highlights for me, & I definitely wouldn't be surprised if I ended up back here again.
Un endroit exceptionnel où il fait bon d'aller. Un rapport qualité prix exceptionnel avec de bons cocktails & de délicieux mets à partager. Une belle expérience à refaire sans aucun doute!
We had just finished dinner close by & were looking for a place to have a drink. Looked on google & saw it was dollar oyster night too. We opted to jump in here for drinks & a dozen oyster, cause why not?!
Boy, are we glad we did. Drinks were great & service was even better! Our server was awesome. We started bs-ing with him about where he would suggest us to eat. He had fun with us & even took time to write down a list for us of his favorites, which was awesome. He ended up getting off work & the guy who replaced him was equally as personable.
We almost went back the next night as we enjoyed it there so much.
A Lovely brasserie blending vintage glamour with a warm & modern vibe. Nestled in the heart of the city, it invites you in with its golden lights, mirrored accents, & effortless French elegance. The menu is refined yet comforting, & the cocktails are expertly crafted, balanced, & bursting with character. A perfect spot for a chic night out where Montréal meets timeless Paris.
