Stopped by for dinner last night. Loris served me at the bar. Very knowledgeable about the menu, I had a nice time chatting with him. The food & cocktails were delicious! Service was excellent. Ellie was a also very nice (Sorry if I spelled either of your names wrong) Thanks for a wonderful evening in Mtl!

Very disappointed in our dinner. Three of us ate for over $500.00 & we only liked the wine. I was super excited about this visit & what a flop.dishes looked beautiful but taste & execution were way off. We sent food back, & didn't eat others dishes.. the octopus was chewy & my coworker asked for a steak knife & the server didn't ask if any questions as to why.

Excellent restaurant with interesting selection of seafood dishes, attentive service, incredibly delicious desserts🧁🫐 It's better to book a table in advance.

We were visiting Montreal & booked at a different restaurant for dinner which was horrible & ended up leaving. We decided to try Garde Manger. They worked to get us a seat at the bar & Julianne greeted us with humour & a smile & kept us laughing all night. There were two other couples sitting at the bar & we had the most delightful time. The service, ambience, food & experience were exceptional!! Best meal we have ever had travelling & I highly recommend.

Everything was A+. The server was personable, cocktail (Pink Moon) was great. The lamb, probably the best I've ever had. & the desserts...wow dangerously good. Great for a really special occasion.

Safe to say this was a massive fail. I came with a colleague to show him what Canada & Montreal has to offer the culinary world. Sad to say, I was left apologizing . We did 6 courses for 200 option. The raw bar was pleasant & so were the wine recommendations. Service was relatively friendly. But the mains were a disaster - 2 of three were sooo over salted that they left my mouth literally stinging. This was at a level that no one could ever enjoy . In retrospect I should have sent this all back. What they did to those scallops was a crime against seafood. By the time the dessert came I swallowed all the ice cream just to get the awful taste out my mouth. I was well mannered when raising the extreme usage of salt in some of the dishes. He listened but didn't do anything else. I left a similar review to this on OpenTable the next day & they gave a call to follow up. I won't be back, I should've gone to a place I was familiar with when showcasing Canada & Montreal to my colleague. Unfortunately the trust is now gone 😞

TL:DR- Excellent food & service. Easy to miss location, hole in the wall atmosphere with big attitude. We sat at the bar. The only difference is bartop vs table, the service is largely the same. We started with some shrimp, & the carrots. Both were awesome, perhaps some of our favorite roasted carrots ever. We continued with the swordfish & lamb. Again, both were very good, beautiful flavors & melt in your mouth texture. We shared a coffee cake for dessert, which was just as good as dinner. This restaurant was easy to miss, but I think that's a feature, not a bug. That vibe carried through the service & decor. Almost a hole in the wall kinda feel, there probably aren't many, if any walk ins. Make reservations well in advance of your visit. I will absolutely make an attempt to eat here again when we come back to Montreal.
