We had an absolutely fabulous experience at this establishment. We used our Montreal Tourism passport ticket for the experience. The downside is that the menu the ticket gave us access to wasn't available.
That however, didn't detract us from having a grand time. We were treated dare I say, like royalty 👑 .
The staff were oozing with excitement, passion & energy for their jobs. Their smiles while serving us filled our hearts while the food filled our tummies. The perfect mix for the holidays.
My coworker & I, stayed at Le Westin & visited their Gazette restaurant just for dessert, after a late lunch. Though we were quite full, we still wanted to satisfy the craving for something sweet. We ordered the chocolate torte & almond cake, & I must say both were visually appealing & tasted absolutely phenomenal. The almond cake paired with Chai tea caramel was to die for. The restaurant itslef has a cozy atmosphere with elegant interior décor & comfortable vibes. The service staff were very polite & friendly throughout our visit, helping us with recommendations on what to order.

Fantastic food & atmosphere. The bread & butter was delicious & we ordered the fresh salad & clam chowder for appetizers (Entrees). The main meal was scallops & sesame seared Tuna! The waitress spoke French & English & gave a great recommendation for red wine. Highly recommended for date night.
Super découverte à Montréal ! Nous avions réservé grâce à une offre disponible avec le MTL passport, nous avons été super content du repas : service au top & plats très bons ! Nous recommandons ce restaurant

Bel accueil avec Sandrine quand j'étais en mode touriste dans la neige, elle m'a proposée une table à l'écart tel que souhaité, dans une alcove face fenêtre en cette journée de tempête la semaine passée.
Jade m'a servie impécablement avec une touche d'humour, & ouverture aussi à mes restrictions alimentaires en m'offrant des adaptations en connaissant le garde-manger du bout des doigts, facile, rapide & agréable pour un final délicieux.
J'y retournerai ! 🦋
Nous étions dans la petite salle privé pour un party de job. La bouffe était incroyable & la serveuse vraiment présente & agréable. Je rêve encore de la bûche de noël si bonne
Absolutely amazing experience! The food was delicious, fresh, & beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm & inviting. The staff was awesome, friendly, attentive, & made the whole evening feel special. Can't wait to come back!
J'y suis venu pour un verre.. Une simple bière en fût.. L'ambiance du bar est très bien, le service offert à la hauteur, mais le prix pour une bière à 17$ c'est largement exagéré...
