One of the most rapturous meals I've had in Montreal. Both cucumber salad & trout with caviar were sublime!

I loved loved loved this restaurant! I ate at the bar & the service & food were both incredible. It's also a really beautiful space. I would go all the time if I lived in Montreal.

J'ai été souper avec ma conjointe dimanche le 1er juin à 20h30 & nous avons eu un service impécable.

Notre serveuse fût souriante, acceuillante & d'un professionalisme hors-pairs sachant agencé un accord mets & vins à la hauteur des plus grands restaurants!

Les repas étaient d'une expérience sensoriel & un délice pour les papilles gustatives!

Nous avons voulu essayer le restaurant suite à un passage dans le guide Michelin qui stipule que cela est un coup de coeur.
Mais ce fut pas le nôtre de toute évidence.
Le prix & les quantités ne sont pas à notre goût (exemple sur la carte : onglet de boeuf, une fois dans l'assiette il y avait littéralement 2 petits morceaux au prix moyen) il n'y avait rien d'exceptionnel à nos yeux même si le coin jolie & le service était bien même un peu trop ( un bol de crevette commander le serveur nous explique même à quoi sert l'autre bol: là ici c'est un autre bol pour jeter les déchets de vos crevettes une fois décortiqué ) donc pas nos ambiance de prédilection.
Après ils sont à l'écoute même si cela était vraiment pas notre but le serveur nous a demandé si cela était à notre goût? quand nous avons stipulé être déçu des quantités de l'assiette de l'onglet ils nous l'on offert même après leurs avoir dit non nous allons payer car c'était juste pour répondre à sa question mais ils ont insisté & l'on offert.
Mais il est certain que nous y retournerons pas & ne le conseillerons pas dans notre entourage.

Excellent service, both friendly & efficient. I like their cool jellyfish looking light fixture but I wish they had them throughout. Nice decor overall.
Great wine recommendation, Coretto was a lovely espresso-based cocktail.
Oysters were 3 & 3. The fleshy ones were delicious, but the smaller ones were tasteless. Loved the mignonette, wasn't the typical one.
Terrine special was good, but poorly presented. Loved how spicy the mustard was, & the apricot was nice as well.
Scallops were nice, but was expecting more than what amounted to chorizo powder, bits would have worked better I think.
Lamb saddle was delicious & full flavour but a bit too salty.
Chou was delicious but would be better if the crust was slightly crispier.
