Across reviews for Fleurs et Cadeaux, the dining experience is described as a cozy, intimate Japanese-inspired spot with a standout tasting menu and superb sashimi, duck and ramen, and a strong emphasis on fresh, artfully presented, shareable dishes. The atmosphere is repeatedly praised as warm and stylish, with seating at the bar offering an up-close view of the kitchen and a lively, buzzy vibe, while the staff are noted as attentive, knowledgeable and friendly, though a few mention moments when service felt rushed or pacing could improve. The drinks and sake program is highlighted as well curated, pairing nicely with courses, and the quality of ingredients and creativity of preparations are commonly praised to justify the price. Portions are sometimes described as small for the cost, particularly on tasting menus, though many guests say the variety of dishes and the overall experience make it worthwhile. Some reviews note delays and other timing issues or a chilly draft, but the overwhelming sentiment is positive and many call it a must-visit in Montreal for date nights or celebrations, with reservations recommended due to popularity.

Delicious food & flavours that really excite the pallet. Everything was delicious, the duck the beef the sushi the chicken the dessert the cocktails wow wow wow - music was too loud I could barely bear the person beside me & was giving a Latin / jazz vibe… would have loved more lounge or lower volume music - other wise great staff & food !! We will be back :)))

We were 4 adults & we ordered 7 or 8 different different meals as per our lady server proposal. A real pro since she did not take any notes of what we ordered. Guest what, she forgot the duck & it is at the end of our dinner that we askedmentionned that we did not get our duck. No escuse, no i am sorry...
her & no as not coming we m* plates two desserts & 6 glass of wine for 355$ .
The plaste were good but there are better alternative in Montreal for that king of service & prices.
Absolutely my fave dinner for our Montreal trip. Everything was super tasty, especially that miso-aged DUCK! I was convinced to go by the reviews about the duck, & it exceeded all of our expectations. This was such a lovely experience, & such a great way to get a variation of Japanese flavours in Montreal. Our server was amazing & did not hesitate to explain any questions we had about the menu, including how many dishes she suggested for our group size, as well as our options for a tasting menu if we wanted. We ended up just ordering a la carte, but I'm sure we would have loved the tasting menu just as much. Food came out in waves based on when she thought food should come out, & it was a phenomenal experience. We'll have to make this a stop everytime we're back.
A couple of sauces could go a long way, say for the hanger steak or duck, but over all the food was great & we loved the atmosphere. Don't look now, but on my way back from the bathroom I noticed a door cracked where a speakeasy was below the restaurant! We will be back.
definitely recommend, easiest $200 spent on food ever, the blind tasting menu is in my opinion the way to go! the scallops are melting in your mouth, the duck is smoky & delicious & the dessert is light & tasty, the perfect way to end a meal

Such a nice restaurant! They were able to seat us even though we did not have a reservation. Very unique options on their menu. It is designed for sharing so we got 5 plates to shared for 2 people. That was a perfect amount & even one less plate would have been enough. We got the duck, the tofu & mushroom dish, the vegetable of the moment, the chicken, & the udon noodles. Would definitely recommend all the dishes they all had a uniqueness to them & were very delicious & nicely presented! We also had ice cream for dessert & that was a nice end to our meal.
Loved this place so much that my friend & I went two nights in a row during our recent trip to Montreal. Service was great, atmosphere was hip & cool, & most importantly, the food was amazing. Our favorites were the fried chicken, chirashi sushi, & brownie with red miso salted caramel. Also enjoyed the steak, duck, & tantan udon.
This place has become a must-stop every time I visit Montreal. The food is incredible, the drinks are delicious, but it's the service that keeps me coming back. Gray made our experience unforgettable as their knowledge of the menu & ability to make spot-on recommendations based on our preferences & mood were truly impressive. Thank you, Gray, for making it such a special night!
I'm a pescatarian, but happily cheat for this place. We had the duck, fried chicken, & pork noodles, & every bite was worth it!

Ooh la la, best food ever! Fleurs & Cadeaux was recommended by a friend as his favorite restaurant in Montreal; & now it is our favorite as well. Service was wonderful from the minute we walked in to the minute we left. Had duck, tuna & sashimi-all top of the line in flavor & presentation. Great selection of drinks; we had a non alcoholic passion fruit soda that I now want to import to my home in Massachusetts! Highly recommend; make a reservation & go asap, then go again!
Incredible! This was a very special meal for my family, & a highlight of our trip to Canada. The food (especially the duck & temaki sushi) was so delicious & uniquely prepared. We enjoyed the atmosphere & the drinks, as well. One of our servers even took the time to show us how to roll the napkins in the shape of roses. A perfect experience.
We tonight enjoyed the tasting menu at Fleurs & Cadeaux & it was a memorable experience.
The standout for us was the Japanese milk bread - truly the best we've ever had. It was incredibly soft, melted in the mouth, & featured a delightfully crispy layer on top.
The fried chicken was also excellent, accompanied perfectly by the black garlic sauce, which was the best sauce pairing for it.
The duck breast was amazing with a lovely charry flavor, but we found the daunted mushroom flavor profile a little off - too sour to complement the smokiness of the breast well.
We particularly loved the Toro special dish; its richness & buttery texture, combined with a subtle brininess of the sea, made it exceptional. Even my friend, who's not usually a seafood fan, enjoyed it thoroughly.
For dessert, we tried both the annin dofu & the brownie, with the brownie absolutely standing out. The chocolate had an impressive density balanced perfectly with the sweetness of the caramel, & the cream on top was a lovely finishing touch.
The service was top notch throughout the evening. Every dish was presented beautifully, & the timing between courses was just right. The only suggestion we have is to consider expanding the tasting menu slightly-adding one or two more dishes or increasing the portion size of a couple of dishes, such as the fried chicken, would help round it out perfectly for 3 people.
Overall, an excellent dining experience with delicious food & attentive service. Highly recommended!
Speak-easy vibes with truly amazing dishes & great drinks. We had amazing service & tried all the recommendations. My favourite dishes were far & away the duck & the sashimi. The fried chicken was also a must-order. Highly recommend checking them out.
Had been wanting to come here for a while after hearing amazing reviews & decided to take visitors from out of town to try it. I read reviews online that a tasting menu was available but our server did not inform us of such thing.
I was surprised at how underwhelming the food was, especially for the price. The sashimi platter should have been the highlight, but was not. It was mediocore & there was barely any wasabi provided, given that sashimi is traditionally eaten with wasabi. The udon noodles were also just noodles that tasted like they were covered in tahini. The best part was the duck, which even then, was super chewy despite being thinly cut.
Unfortunately, I don't think I'd return but the ambiance was spectacular. Meat /Seafood forward menu. Reservations are required.
I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. I had the fried chicken; it was one of the best I've tried, great flavour & cooked to perfection. It doesn't come with any sides so I ordered a portion of rice which was delicious. My friend ordered the duck & she said it was really good. The decoration & ambiance was nice, is not that big so better make a reservation, was a bit loud for me but nothing annoying. I highly recommend this place.
