What a truly fabulous experience at Garde Manger We had the 6 course tasking menu consisted of Amuse-Bouche was a fried lobster pogo, topped with sturgeon caviar & tangy tartare sauce Fresh & vibrant raw bar of razor clams, oysters, salmon, shrimp Beef carpaccio with freshly grated truffles & Parmesan, aggressively seasoned & equally addictive. Octopus, perfectly grilled, paired with a medley of vegetables, tangy herbs & splash of vinegar Bitter greens & cabbage salad with caraway seeds, I really like this salad & found it added a nice touch of lightness to the bold & rich flavours of the other courses. Cacio e pepe pasta, I forget which pasta specifically which only further lends itself to the opinion that it was just ok, not bad at all but just ok. I found the pasta to be a bit tough, still tasty though. Potato gratin, oozing with a blend of what felt like 5 different cheeses. Very well seasoned & creamy. Roasted lamb, caramelized in all the right spots with a savoury sauce on the side. Dessert was a combination or two desserts ; apples & cinnamon / chocolate tart Both very good & not overly sweet. They felt decadent but not heavy. Coffee & drinks were just as delectable & tasty as what you would expect from all the amazing food we enjoyed at Garde Manger. The music & atmosphere was super cozy & charming, it was where I would want to be on a snowy Tuesday night in the Old Port of Montreal.
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!
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.
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.
Oui c'est dispendieux mais: - les ingrédients sont d'une qualité rare. - le service est excellent. - la cuisine met la barre très haute avec leurs recettes & une exécution irréprochable. - on n'a pas faim quand on sort contrairement à certains autres gastronomiques. On reviendra c'est sûr, pour les belles occasions bien-sûr.
I can't give this place enough stars! The meal was amazing from app to dessert! We walked in after deciding to cancel our reservations at another restaurant & decided to try our luck with this place. We had cozy seats at the bar. Or bartender/server was amazing. She made an excellent wine recommendation that really highlighted the whole meal. The oysters might have been the best we've ever had. We had the Trofie & Agnolotti for our mains. We didn't want them to end. Some of the best flavors I've ever had. We ordered dessert as so the night would not end. That too did not disappoint. I recomend their classic. Even the music was excellent.
I was recently in town for work & had heard great things about this place. Decided to try my luck for a walk-in as a nice treat for my birthday & snagged a late-night spot at the back bar. I was blown away by the whole experience! Julian was a joy to chat with & watch work. He clearly knows his craft & is happy to share his knowledge. The food was great to boot. Highlight of my trip!
The experience was mixed. The food was very good but the service was lacking. Seated at the bar we ordered some seafood & an appetizer. The bartender said "tell me everything you want now, & I will put it all in together - it helps with our flow". I guess he could tell by the look on my face that I was more concerned with our flow than his so he put the order in. Our reso was for 9:15 & we were seated closer to 9:30PM The bartender & other staff were overly focused on two guests at the bar buying them shots. In the hour & half we were there our bartender must have done 5 shots. Pretty sure that those were not his first. The effect on the service was disappointing. We wanted to order dessert but after sitting with our empty plates in front of us for 10 minutes while the repetitive shot ritual continued at the other end of the bar we decided to pay up & leave. Dinner for two with a bottle of wine & cocktails $350
Cela fait très longtemps que je voulais essayer ce resto branché. Quelle déception! l'entrée de crabe est des plus ordinaires, le prix de 29$ exagéré même les petits outils manquent pour décortiquer. L'assiette de pétoncles à 39$ est composée de 3 pétoncles moyens, certes on annonce des truffles ce qui justifient un peu le prix mais ceux-ci ne goûtent rien. Les pétoncles étaient toutefois très bien grillés.
Enfin, depuis le temps que mes copines & moi essayions de planifier cette sortie, j'ai été doublement déçue d'apprendre que la "fameuse" barre mars frite n'était plus au menu, la serveuse de me répondre:"va falloir vous en remettre madame" ouf! Petite phrase rude à laquelle je répondrai aujourd'hui: " bien, sûr, je vais m'en remettre d'avoir gaspillé 140$ pour une bouffe & un service qui n'étaient pas à la hauteur de mes attentes!". Nous sommes 5 filles, branchées qui n'y retournons certainement plus.
