Clairement mon restaurant préféré à Montréal. 3e passage. S'il y'a un bien un endroit que j'aime faire découvrir aux gens, c'est bien Fleur & Cadeau.
Le poulet Karage est exceptionnel, le canard est une pure folie, le reste de la carte est tout aussi bonne. En petit groupe, être au bar rend l'expérience encore meilleure.
J'ai moins aimé les nouilles, un peu trop épicé & gras après autant de finesse, mais je ne doute pas qu'elles sauront plaire, ça reste très gourmand.
Recommended by several friends, Fleurs & Cadeux did not disappoint. The food, cocktails, & service were all amazing. My favorite was the butter scallops. Our server, Gray, really made our night. Gray made us feel so welcome, was very knowledgeable about the entire menu (including sake & cocktails), & also makes an amazing dirty martini. Highly recommend for dinner, drinks, or both!
This place never disappoints. I came here a few years ago & loved my meal so much, I came back a second time in the same week. Just visited again while in Montreal & it was just as good if not better. Service is fantastic. Sitting at the bar gives you a front row seat to an impressive kitchen. Will be back again!
Nourriture correcte mais rien de Wow.
Camille notre serveuse avait l'air pressée/blasée de nous servir, même si des tables étaient vides autour de nous.

I absolutely love it here. The atmosphere, attention to detail, & overall delicious food make it a must try! The tasting menu has crowd favorites & made for a cohesive & well balanced experience. My favorite was the 10/10 updon noodle dish.
Super friendly service right off the bat. The menu was well explained, drinks were strong but well balanced & the ambience was very chill. The food was excellent. Highly recommend the shitake mousse & the albacore.
Will definitely be back
Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you. Step through the doors & you're transported into a moody, quaint, vibey little world that feels like a well-kept secret. We grabbed seats at the bar, & it turned out to be the perfect vantage point - great energy, easy conversation with the staff, & a front-row view of the kitchen at work.
The food matched the atmosphere. We ordered the sashimi, the duck, & a shiitake mousse dish, & every plate delivered. Thoughtful, well-executed, & full of flavor.
This was hands-down one of the highlights of our trip. Whether you're a local or just passing through Montreal, Fleurs & Cadeaux is well worth seeking out.
