Stylish interior, cool vibe, loved the oysters. The bartender could be a bit friendlier, but the drinks were good.

We went here for some late night drinks & nibbles (they were serving food until midnight!) & it was absolutely amazing. Refreshing cocktails & very high quality, tasty food. The bar itself is stunning & a great vibe, & the service was immaculate. Every single staff member was extremely kind & attentive. Can't recommend enough!

Vibes were great but we ordered two drinks & watched for 50 minutes as others got their drinks. Mind you, it wasn't even that busy. Our server (description : the short guy) kept looking back at us but not checking on us. The bartender who probably did not get our order began his closing tasks so he's chill i don't blame. Maybe because Canadiens lost everyone was off their A-game but come on guys. Vibes are great in there but would've been better if I had a drink in my hand like i ordered 50 minutes prior. We decided to leave because it was getting absolutely ridiculous. No one checked up on us. Rating my night a 6.7/10 only because i went next door to Dunn's to get a crisp glass of wine & a fat plate of buff poutine. 🫵🏻
