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.

Une expérience exceptionnelle que nous allons répéter certainement! Les bons conseils de Camille nous ont permis d'apprivoiser un menu innovant & … alléchant!
Wow, this is our first time in this restaurant.our waitress Camille is the best i have ever encountered. I told her about one of the guest celebrating a birthday & she took care of it. We enjoyed what we ordered as Camille explained everything well. From the sashimi to the steak, we truly enjoyed everything. Thank you. We will come back.
Excellente soirée, nourriture & Sake A1 ! Lrs sashimis sont tellement frais qu'ils fondent dans la bouche.Le staff est vraiment gentil & professionnel, notre serveur Jack a rendu cette soirée encore plus mémorable. À ne pas manquer Sashimis,canard, plat de nouilles & petits légumes marinés!
Première expérience en couple. Excellent service, discret & sympathique. Ambiance feutrée & joyeuse. La nourriture est excellente, préparée sous nos yeux avec soin, & le poisson se distingue par sa fraîcheur irréprochable. On repart du restaurant avec le sourire, déjà impatients d'y revenir.
I was really looking forward to trying this restaurant in Chinatown & Montreal, however, the food was frankly underwhelming & confusing. I'm of Chinese origin & have spent my entire life eating a variety of Asian food, especially Chinese (of course) & Japanese food. This restaurant calls itself Japanese (per their website & Instagram) & has a'fusion' menu if you look closely - mix of Japanese cooking, Chinese flavours, & some French ingredients. To me, the marketing isn't straight forward or clear to the consumer, especially with the Chinese signage. If the marketing/branding is a bit clearer, customers may come in with that context in mind. As for the food, some dishes were a bit strange tasting, such as the'Gai Lan' (Cantonese veggie in pic) - the price was high for a few icy cold pieces of Gai Lan drenched in soy sauce with a creamy seasme sauce on the side. I get it - the restaurant probably attempted to replicable how Japanese spinach salad (Gomae) is made using a Cantonese veggie, but the flavour was lacking & the price was quite high ($14). We also got the Tan Tan Udon - regardless of what the'take' is for this dish, the umami flavour was really lacking - it was spicy & had way too much sesame oil. Finally, we also got the Chicken Nanban, it was good but a bit salty. Overall, I think the restaurant has some uniqueness to it, but can work on their focus in terms of branding & flavours - keeping things a bit simpler, & preserving some traditional Japanese/Chinese aspects for certain dishes, & not overdoing it to create fusion.
Nous avons partagé 5 repas à deux personnes & ils étaient tous DÉLICIEUX! Le service était parfait. L'ambiance charmante. Je recommande certainement!!!
