Booked this restaurant over a week in advance,then 24 hours before the reservation a manager named'Sophie' called to say there was a glitch in the system & needed to move my reservation. She was extremely rude & lacks professionalism to say the least. I then spoke to another manager'Ali' who was polite & told me he would'take care of the group & give a round of free drinks' for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, he back tracked on his word because some of the people in the group cancelled because of their system glitch. He also said he was waiving a fee of $25 because we were late! That's a lie..originally reservations were at 8pm snd they moved it to 9:15. All in all, very disappointing experience & would not return or recommend this restaurant. Customer service ZERO. Server was good though, nothing bad to say.
I've been to this restaurant twice: once for drinks & once for a meal.
The ambiance is really nice, especially upstairs, & the wall paintings give it a nice touch.
We tried the Devil Burger, which was okay, & the staff were friendly & welcoming.
The music was really my style,
& I feel the value for money could be a bit better.
Way overhyped for what it actually is. Food'quality' is good - good quality meats & vegetables. Flavors are not good (I know that's subjective), plating is not good - way too large for the tables, no room on the table. Very large, yet pretty bare, plates.
Service was mediocre (& I'm being kind here). The restaurant was empty - barely 4 tables. We were all seated/crammed one next to the other. We couldn't get a booth'just in case a big group came over' - although we had reserved. Waitress was not friendly & didn't check on us regularly. Manager was arguing with another table. You are not allowed substitutions... Basically, everything was'no','no','no'.
If you are to spend >100$ per person (without drinks) take your money elsewhere for better tasting food & way better service.

We reserved at this restaurant because of the name, we honestly chose it for that BUT so glad we did. What a GEM! The food was amazing, we actually can't stop thinking about the app we ordered (Mac & Cheese wontons) & the ribeye I ordered melted in your mouth. I do have to say the time to get our drinks was absolutely absurd but they were slammed so I'll still give a 5 star because the service was nice & the food is worth the 2 hour drive. We will definitely be returning to try other dishes but in the meantime we highly recommend the Short Rib Mac & Cheese, the ribeye steak & the Mac & Cheese wontons!
Returned to this restaurant & again, it was fabulous. The food was delicious, the apps were amazing & the service & atmosphere were even better then the last time! Added photos of this round of food as well! Highly recommend!!
We were on a trip from Maine & had a whole list of restaurants we were excited to try! After enjoying dinner on November 14th, we couldn't resist coming back the next night-& later that same night, we swung by again to grab some monkey bread to go! Haha!
Honestly, this place blew me away! The food, the drinks, & the service were all absolutely fantastic. I'm so glad I'm a bit far away from that tempting monkey bread, but I'm counting down the days until I can come back!
Thank you all for the amazing experience! You really are the best!
Absolutely loved this place, staff was stellar, the chef came out & chatted a bit. The fork & knife Caesar salad was incredible, I've come back home & it's the main thing that stuck out to me. No idea how a salad struck me so well, but it was amazing.
I had a steak sandwich too, just to try, wasn't my favorite, but I don't think I like steak sandwiches, I was just trying something new. The bread was amazing though & freshly made. The drinks were also very good, & the bar tender was very friendly.
Unlike much of Montreal the music wasn't exploding my eardrums & it was a nice comfy spot. Does close a little early, but highlight recommend if you're looking for a bite!
We had an amazing brunch at this spot in Montreal! I ordered the Deville scramble with cheddar cheese eggs & potatoes - everything was so flavorful & perfectly cooked. The Caesar Bloody Marys were spicy, refreshing, & super tasty. My husband's dish was also excellent.
Overall, a great brunch experience in Montreal - delicious food, fun drinks, & a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend!
Just had few drinks but the place looks amazing & their staff is top. We will come back to try the menu.
Edit : Few months later we had finally lunch here. Everything was perfect, great service, fresh nice & tasty food. The hamburger was amazing. The whole place looks clean & tidy, great job. Thanks to Igor & his excellent attention.
