Very delicious & unique dining experience. There was an issue with dealing with allergies, as in almost killing me with hazelnuts, but luckily my husband caught it before I ate it, & after a discussion, the staff dealt with it appropriately. So overall a great experience, but definitely be vigilant if you do have an allergy.

Fabulous with special taste & colors. Very good choice of ingredients & perfect coordination with wines for every dish. Enormous creativity. The host explained the elements of the food & the choice of wines from Quebec to France to Italy. Extremely enjoyable evening.

Expérience plutôt décevante! Beaucoup trop cher pour une gastronomie qui n'est pas au rendez-vous - manque de saveur & certains plats un peu triste en bouche! On a quitté l'estomac à moitié rempli rempli & le porte-feuille complètement vide!!! C'est mieux d'en rire - évidemment on n'y retournera pas.

Repas d'anniversaire & ce fut un superbe cadeau! Nous étions assis au bar & nous avons pu constater l'esprit d'équipe & le souci du détail de l'équipe en cuisine. Chaque membre de l'équipe présente lui même le plat qu'il a préparé: j'ai trouvé cette attention intéressante. Sommelier hyper gentil qui bénéficierait d'avoir un peu plus d'expérience ... & de coffre... pour finaliser l'accompagnement de ce repas divin.

Excellente découverte que ce restaurant gastronomique à Montréal où nous avons dîner en famille. Les préparations &/ou cuissons des mets (pâté en croûte revisité, boeuf aux baies de goji, lobster) étaient parfaites. Le mix des cuisines françaises italiennes & mexicaines est parfaitement maîtrisé sous la houlette de son chef Massimo. J'aime beaucoup le principe de la présentation d'un plat par le cuisinier lui-même. Le personnel de salle jeune dynamique & d'influences culinaires diverses s'est montré très professionnel & présent à souhait sans excès. Finalement une très belle expérience originale & festive.

Another beautiful discovery! My wife invited me to a surprise birthday dinner to this great restaurant & we loved the experience. Philippe, Théo, (également la mixologist désolé on n'a pas votre nom) & Chef Massimo were all perfect. We took the tasting menu with wine & all the meals were delicious. Only two recommendations for improvements: 1- the AC was not working & my wife would have like to be aware before we arrived at the restaurant - we had a very humid day in Montreal (almost 37c) 2- choice of music & the volume was loud at some moments. Regardless of those 2 details, we loved our experience & we will definitely go back & try the bar experience. Thank you all! Ali&Esthe

I was expecting greatness & got that & then some. I'm used to eating well in NYC & Europe & this was something special, & decent value. The variety, the music, the vibe, helped as well. It felt like eating in someone's fancy living room. A rarity for a place of such caliber. The scallop & entrecote courses were something else. Full report on Eatingwithziggy.[com]

Very well curated dishes from various cuisines. Staff was friendly & attentive. The chef Massimo is an Italian with French culinary training who has worked under Daniel Boulud. He selects the dishes daily to keep the menu fresh & current with the seasons. The use of the charcoal grill is the highlight of many dishes as it infuses the food with the signature aroma of charcoal smoke.
