Repas du Réveillon de Noël, accord mets-vins. C'etait vraiment excellent. Nous étions 3 & avons tous pris des plats différents proposés dans le menu spécial Noël. Tous étaient très bien présentés, élégants & goûteux. La serveuse était très très professionnelle quant aux explications des vins, très souriante & sympathique. On a adoré. De plus le restaurant est chaleureux avec une belle cheminée.View more

Very nice dining experience for my family. The atmosphere & design of the restaurant were great. I really recommend the lobster salad & the roasted duck breast. The lobster was cooked to perfection paired with a delicious maple syrup dressing. The duck breast was cooked to a perfect doneness, was juicy, had a crispy skin, & was paired with a flavorful maple dressing. Our waitress Sheila was also very friendly, knowledgeable, & added to the experience.View more

It was a wonderful experience! No wonder it is the best restaurant in Montréal. I loved almost everything. Dress something nice, you will feel like a King/Queen. It took us about 1hr & 40mins to complete the tasting menu. First of all, the atmosphere was beautiful. The music, the walls, the tables, the menu, & the plating went very well together. The Christmas tree was beautifully decorated with dried cirtus. I had to take pictures up close. Servers were very professional & attentive. It was a busy night, but they all had a smile on their face & looked very happy working there. Clumsy me, I dropped the butter knife as soon as I got to my seat. I was so embarrassed, but the servers replaced it right away without us asking or getting their attention. Now, the food, we tried the tasting menu, & it was an awesome choice. My husband & I ordered different things & shared them. Salad & lobster bisque - both were great choices; Salmon was no doubt, Duck Foie Gras Crème Brûlée was not for my taste, but I was glad that I tried it; mushroom ravioli was so wonderful, rabbit confit was not my style but again, l loved that I tried it; pear sorbet cleansed my pallet well (but was too boozy for me); roasted duck was heavenly & was the highlight of my meal (got it medium) & lamb was also heavenly (medium as well); tea (gave me a whole pot, loved it) & coffee; cheese option was really great & Pastry was is the only plate I couldn't finish. We didn't take the wine pairing option. We ordered drinks separately. Overall we were very satisfied. Highly recommend to try.View more

Nourriture correcte mais sans plus. Ne mérite clairement pas le prix. J'ai aimé le soufflet qui s'en sort mieux que les plats tout de même. Service courtois, merci au serveur de m'avoir fait goûter leur "vin rouge sans alcool" avant de me le servir, se doutant que ça ne me plairait pas.View more

Souper du 31 décembre. Très beau restaurant, bel aménagement dans le Vieux Montréal. Très bon repas, en particulier, le filet mignon. Accord mets/vin inégal. Sommellerie relativement déficiente. Service peu personnalisé, mais très efficace. Au global, à 225 $/personne + taxes + service, on s'attend à une bonne coche de plus.View more

Juliet was an outstanding server. The food was good but not amazing. I would not recommend the lobster bisque, though the filet mignon was excellent.View more

During our most recent visit, the portions were just incredibly small!! - Pate was cut thin like ham. Seafood entre ($26) offered 1 mid-size scallop & 2 shrimp!! Filet mignon at $59 was really small! - We love the place & staff but this is probably our last visit.View more

Sadly we were highly disappointed in this restaurant especially after reading so many wonderful reviews. The food was not well prepared & completely lacking in flavor. I feel like the focus was more on the tasting menu rather than the standard menu. The service was extremely slow but ultimately our waitress was sweet. It is a beautiful building in old Montreal, so the atmosphere was great. There are far better options with a beautiful atmosphere for half the price.View more

This restaurant perfectly embodies the essence of Old Port: good looks, no substance. We got the tasting menu. The appetizers were interesting but nonetheless disappointing. For example the foie gras crème brûlée was an interesting concept, but didn't deliver. The savouriness did not pair well with the pear compote. The lobster bisque was thoroughly disappointing. It was grainy & lacked any flavor other than the stench of a fish market. There was little, if any, lobster in it. For a meal of this price, it's a slap in the face. The entrées were similarly lackluster... by the time they came. The lamb stew was decent, but the sauce had coagulated. It wasn't memorable, & not something I recommend spending money on. The poisson du jour was average, but the sides it came with were scarce & unimaginative. Finally the desserts were good, but nothing special. All in all, I cannot recommend spending money at this restaurant. You're far better off going somewhere outside of Old Port.View more

The space is lovely, the service is excellent & the food is good. I ordered an orange carrot soup (soup of the day) which was very nice & the lamb shank. I was a little disappointed with the lamb shank as it was overcooked--something you don't expect in a restaurant of this standing. Also, I personally prefer Quebec (local) lamb vs New Zealand lamb, but I believe I was served the latter. My experience with lamb has always been that New Zealand has the stronger, game-y taste, which I am personally not found of. Overall, a great experience, but not an experience you can't find elsewhere in Montreal, for less $$.View more

We had the tasting menu with wine pairings for $192 CA each. The meal was a major disappointment. The lobster bisque with ginger tasted like burned lobster carcass. My "filet" was gristly & tough. The accompanying wines were pedestrian at best; I can't imagine that any of the bottles (of which we had a small pour) cost more than $25.View more
