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.
I can comfortably say that I ate the best Tuna Sashimi in my life, & I eat a lot of sushi. Everything was great. The only thing I would say is I sat at the bar & the stools were horrible. It was so uncomfortable I had to stand several times during the meal.

Everything was amazing! The food was delicious, the service was excellent & the vibe there was so cool - busy butbintimate at the same.time. I plan to come back next time I am in Montreal.
J'adore ce restaurant. J'y suis allée à 4 reprises & c'est un 5 étoiles à tous les niveaux à chaque fois. Tous les plats sont succulents, le service est attentionné & décontracté, ce contribue à la super expérience. Je recommande sans hésiter & j'y retournerai c'est certain.
Une très belle première expérience chez Fleurs & cadeaux! C'est une grande table de Montréal où je retournerai avec plaisir. L'ambiance est très sympa, & c'était super de manger au bar avec vue sur la préparation des plats. Merci pour l'agréable soirée!

Super ambiance & nourriture délicieuse. Nous avons pris le menu dégustation & avons apprécié chaque plats. Coup de coeur pour les nouilles udon, le canard & le plat de sashimi!
Tous étaient délicieux. Nous étions 5 & nous avons demandé à notre serveur Louis de nous proposer des plats. Les commentaires de notre groupe ont été unanime. Meilleur resto à découvrir & à revenir.
Disclaimer: This review is more of a 3.5/5 star than a 4, but I'm giving it a 4 because I would actually still come back just for the sushi.
Pros:
1. Sushi was terrific. Some of the best in the city. & that includes the rice as well, which was phenomenal.
2. The meats were also A1. Though, I hope they weren't cooked sous-vide (that method is being phased out because of microplastic contamination) but I have a suspicion they were. Owner, feel free to confirm. Either way, excellent.
Cons:
1. Seating at the bar (if you're lucky not be facing a literal wall) is uncomfortable for longer than an hour.
2. Plates came out at random. Meat, then sushi, then noodles, then meat, etc. Insulting to the sushi in my opinion.
3. This is one of those devious sharing-plate restaurants that lets you easily rack up a big bill with only a couple of drinks & a few sharing plates without really noticing the total until you get the bill. Caveat emptor. But either way this style of restaurant is fading away, people are tired of sharing & overpaying for small portions.
4. The steak, for example, is far too good to be served on its own without any accompaniment. It's seems really silly. It's a sneaky way to rack up another $30 charge just to get to taste a few slices of beef. But it was good.
5. Some dishes were not well balanced, like the paprika noodles. Extremely cloy in the mouth. The ice cream suffers the same problem: overpowered. It's as if whoever is tasting the food in the kitchen is a heavy smoker or drinker because those dishes were not balanced whatsoever.
6. Last but not least, Fleurs & Cadeaux is peak'Montreal service'. Cold & ironically unfriendly, as if they're doing you a grand favour by letting you in. Fake smiles that disappear the moment they turn away, & they won't bother asking if you liked your food or how the evening is going. Also, a restaurant of this caliber shouldn't let staff dress in tattered Value Village. Again, that classic'ironic' Montreal service that just makes me cringe. This isn't unique to Fleurs & Cadeaux, it's just endemic to this city.
In short, despite the lack of good service & comfort & some issues with some of the dishes, this place cares about quality especially when it comes to the sushi.

This place was perfect in every aspect except for the host, who didnt really make us feel welcome. I normally dont care about this stuff, but this is a MUST for me in the service industry, ESPECIALLY if the food is michelin Bib Gourmand quality, which in my opinion it is!
Très bon & prix raisonnable! Souper convivial au bar pour 2. Malheureusement, le service était impersonnel & mécanique (plus précisément le maître d'hotel & la serveuse; la suiteuse était sympa, la seule qui souriait en fait!) avec cette impression d'être de trop comme client. C'est dommage, car le service chaleureux est une expérience que les clients aiment vivre d'habitude.
The best way to describe this place is'pretentious', from the staff to the cocktails & down to the meals. Menu is confusing at first sight but you get barely any help from the waitress - almost looking down on me for not being familiar with the meals. Cocktail was rancid. The'vegetable of the moment' was just a blanched piece of broccoli in cold water. Is that a joke? Having sesame sauce right next to it doesnt'elevate' the dish. Pretentious. 45$ for, more or less, a pokebowl wasnt worth it either. Udon spicy pork basically tasted like some sort of pistachio italian ragu - not japanese at all. But what do you expect from a japanese restaurant that doesnt employ any japanese cooks in the kitchen? The only thing this place is good for is an instagram picture. Super overrated.
