I've gone here for valentines, birthdays, date nights & more - it is by far my favourite restaurant in the city!

Cannot recommend the tasting with wine pairing enough, & if you don't want a full course, we've always had amazing custom menus made by waitress Karin that pair beautifully together for an amazing meal.

Damas through & through never disappoints!

EXTREMELY OVERPRICED, SMALL PORTIONS, nothing special, big hype for nothing. Go to Karoun you get more food better taste & much less expensive, Service was great tho I have to say, other than, not worth 393$ for two people

Overall it was a negative experience but I will break it down:

The service was fantastic. All the staff from the lady who checked us in to our server were very accommodating & friendly. They explained the food options & took care of us. However, everything else about our experience was bad.

The food was average. Nothing special. The server highly recommended the tasting menu so that is what we ordered. Unfortunately that was the wrong decision. All the serving sizes were small. The taste was ok. It was overhyped by the server so we thought it was going to be good but we did not like it. You get the same food at a regular supermarket.

The restaurant was noisy & very dimly lit. Everyone around us was using their phone flashlight to look at the menu. We had the same urge but we knew it was too distracting so we resisted it.

The worst part & the thing that ruined our night was the bill. It was unbelievably expensive. Way to high & not worth the experience we received. It was insanely overpriced & we just felt tricked.

$200+ per person is insane. Google Reviews does not even have that option in its system haha. The maximum you can tap is'$100+' & we had to pay more than twice that amount for a bad experience.

Couldn't say anything bad about Damas. The ambiance is incredible & the restaurant has so many cool details throughout. We loved the cold Mezze, shrimp, the braised lamb, & chicken dish. Everything blew us away. The flavor, presentation, & creativity is unmatched in Montréal. In addition our waiter Diego was extremely professional, kind, & knowledgeable on the food & wine. We loved the tea to end the dinner as well

Great service from Theo! We also sat at the bar & the bartender Juliette was so kind & friendly to us! She gave us recommendations for bars & delicious cocktails (would recommend their hibiscus cucumber drink).
