Phenomenal experience. Fruité de mer is sensational & the service was excellent: friendly, prompt & provided helpful recommendations. Can also recommend the tuna tartare & the king crab pasta. The crab pasta sauce is delicious it need something on the side to soak it up. I cannot wait to come back for another romantic evening.
C'était un mardi soir, peut-être qu'il y avait des gens en formation parce que plusieurs personnes à la table n'ont pas reçu le plat qu'ils avaient commandé !
I’m very hard to please when it comes to restaurants & I’m pleased to say that I have nothing negative to say about this place. Charming elegant decor, top-tier service & amazing menu selections. A true Montreal gem!
Amazing food, beautiful restaurant interior & honestly some of the most amazing & friendly service by our waiter, friend & comedian for the night Lavi. If not only for the great food, we would come back just for the warm & welcoming service we were given.
Definitely would recommend 👌
Made reservations for dinner about 6-7hrs ahead of time that day. Husband & I found this resto on Google maps. Wednesday night on September 13 at 815PM was our reservation time. Came in & immediately greeted & seated. After a day filled with eating & meeting amazing servers at various restaurants we decided to forgo appetizers & drinks & just split an entree & dessert since we were so stuffed. My main complaint is that the servers were not friendly at all with us. There were two servers coming to our table & moving around us, one of them would worldlessly set food (some sort of small complimentary appetizer with tomato & olives & bread with vinegar & olive oil) in front of us, barely looking at us while he did it. We didn’t order it, so you would think he’d explain what was in front of us, but he didn’t explain what it was at all. Not sure if he could speak English or not but like I said he barely looked at us & didn’t even smile even though I smiled & tried to make eye contact & even tried speaking a bit of French like we’ve been doing to the delight of other servers during our vacation here. Didn’t ask us if we had questions about the menu at all. & then the other server came maybe 2-3 times during our 1.5hrs there, barely spoke & yet I saw him checking on the other tables next to us repeatedly without their prompting/calling for him. I assume he was supposed to be our main server but again not sure bc the two servers barely gave us a second thought. Our food came, the Osso Bucco & no one ever came to ask if we liked the meal or to check on us (it was delicious thankfully).Part of the money spent at places like this is supposed to include great service as part of the experience, & I could see if they were understaffed but like I said, the tables around us got excellent service, the kind of service I’m used to experiencing no matter where I go. One of our servers was a darker slim gentleman & the other was a white balding older gentleman, didn’t even get their names because they didn’t bother to introduce themselves.
Didn’t even get dessert like I wanted bc the service was so offputting…& I did want dessert bc I asked at the beginning of the night & got told that I had to wait, & even though we sat with a clean plate no one came for 10 min meanwhile the table next to us got offered dessert with no prompting.
Arrived in Montreal late evening, it was the only restaurant that was open. & luckily for me. I got to sit at the bar & have a delicious charcuterie board & salad. A delicious piece of lamb included on the board. Define cuts of dried meats & olives in cheeses.. I was so full. I took the salad home & it was delicious the next day for lunch.
The staff is very professional, especially the girl bartender behind the bar. She made me feel very welcomed.
Highly recommend.
Incredible atmosphere! The foo. was amazing & lived up to the reputation. I came here with my girlfriend & we were really impressed. It’s unfortunate that our service experience was so underwhelming. The waiting staff was extremely friendly, professional & welcoming, however after the initial introduction we were basically forgotten about. After our staters we waited an hour for our main course to arrive & never checked in with by staff. The tables around us received their food long before us despite the fact that they ordered after us. I ordered a gin & tonic which was probably the best I’ve ever had. I was never asked if I wanted another one after I finished. Once we got our main course we were never asked how the food was which is disappointing. We were offered a dessert menu & the waiter didn’t return for about 15 minutes. We didn’t end up getting a dessert just because we were tired of waiting. Honestly, it wasn’t that busy that it should have taken that long. For the price point of the meal, that shouldn’t have happened.
Overall everything was great minus our service experience which for me is a make or break deal. It felt disrespectful that others around us seemed to get preferential treatment.
We had reservations for a Friday night & we arrived 15 minutes early & were seated immediately. Our waiter was phenomenal! I had a tough time deciding between two dishes & he split them in 2 so I could try both. Besides the amazing service, the food was amazing! We had the burrata appetizer which was incredibly smooth. The mushroom ravioli was hands down the favorite dish which was quickly eaten. The lamb cavatelli dish was also delicious but it couldn't compete with the richness of the truffle & mushroom. I highly recommend Da Vinci!
Was excited to come here & it was a sad disappointment. The food was mediocre at best & the service was bordering on offensive & very slow. My crab ravioli was cold & flavorless, the shrimp appetizer was bland & the cheese plate never arrived. The waiter said they were short on cheese & he would give us the port for free & ended up charging us. Worse I saw another table with guess what a cheese plate. He seemed to be hustling us out the door. Never checked on us & frankly I believe as my colleague is gay that he thought we were a couple & maybe was discriminating. Can't come up with another explanation. Cross this off the list.
