J'y retournerai assurément pour essayer les autres choix tentants au menu. Nous avons pris les calmars & la buratta en entrée. Les calmars sont savoureux & la mayonnaise & bomba qui les accompagnent relève à merveille leur goût. Les légumes qui accompagnent la burrata sont croquants & plein de saveur. Pour le plat principal nous avons pris le poulet entier avec les frites & la salade de choux. Le poulet était un peu sec mais les frites & la salade de chou étaient délicieuses. Belle carte de vin pour accompagner le tout! Le service est efficace, (peut-être trop) plusieurs personnes se succèdent pour poser les memes actions. Ambiance un peu bruyante mais décor très chaleureux
The food & service from Taylor & Jennie, our sommelier, were superb. The mortadella, gem salad, scallops, & pavlova, to name just a few dishes, were absolutely delicious & made for a memorable dining experience.
Unfortunately, our interaction with the hostess, Rose, left a very different impression. Our reservation was for 6:15 p.m., & while we were running slightly late, we attempted to call ahead to let the restaurant know. However, our call went straight to voicemail & we were unable to reach anyone. After checking the restaurant's website, we noted that there is a stated 15-minute grace period for reservations.
When we arrived at 6:28 p.m., well within that grace period, we were immediately met with an unfriendly & dismissive attitude from Rose. As first-time guests, this was disappointing & felt unnecessarily rude. Hospitality begins at the door, & our initial welcome did not reflect the high standard demonstrated by the rest of the staff.
Thankfully, the exceptional service from Taylor & Jennie, along with the outstanding food, more than redeemed the evening. While we thoroughly enjoyed our meal & would return for the cuisine & service, we hope management addresses the way guests are greeted & treated upon arrival.
We made the reservation weeks ago not realizing it was Mother's Day weekend, so not exactly a calm atmosphere. We should have made our reservation for an hour later to avoid the rambunctious kids - all well behaved just kids being kids. The room is large & painted white. This makes the food the focus of the evening but is a bit stark & echoey. The service was excellent & if you get the chance to talk with Jenny the sommelier do it! She is a an amazing font of information & did a great job of guiding us to the perfect wine pairings.
Rather than do apps first, our group of 4 ordered the scallops, the French tomato salad & the black cod. The scallops were ok but the cod was magnificent. Perfect grill & so good. I would recommend skipping the tomato salad. It's a great idea but the tomatoes were mealy & the crunchy bits on top were an unnecessary attempt at adding texture. For our second course we share the Kansas cut steak (almost perfect) & the broccoli rabe (delicious). I can't remember if it was the fish or the steak but one of them came with Swiss chard - a nice surprise & cooked my favourite way.
Our table of 4 could not have been happier. Treat yourself & check this place out
We had another enjoyable evening at Gille Nature. My wife & I particularly appreciate sitting at the bar, & this visit was no exception... we had plenty of space & felt very comfortable throughout the evening. The staff interactions were, as always, warm, attentive, & genuinely pleasant, which really adds to the overall experience.
A standout moment was when the chef noticed we were intrigued by the salad, sucrine au Roquefort. He kindly approached us, provided explanations, & described the dish perfectly. It was a thoughtful & personal touch that made the experience even more memorable.
We started by sharing the fried calamari, which was nicely prepared & perfect to kick things off. I had the burger, which was satisfying & well executed, while my wife opted for the sucrine au Roquefort, which did not disappoint.
Overall, it was a relaxed & enjoyable evening at a very reasonable price. Definitely a place we're happy to come back to.
Friends made a reservation 2 months ahead & we were all looking forward to a great meal. Our waiter Dean was excellent. Attentive & friendly & efficient. Devore was very nice with a great warmth & attention to detail. My wife ordered the hanger steak. I ordered the thick cut bacon & the New York strip aux poivre. Unfortunately both our steaks were overcooked but we're still tasty. The bacon was delicious & well prepared. My buddy & his wife ordered the Caesar salad which they said was delicious. He ordered the burger which was great & his wife ordered the hanger steak which was also overcooked. Seemed like the kitchen had some issues with doneness this night. For dessert, we had the Marjolaine cake which was good but pricey at $16 for a small slice. Strange considering most menu items were quite reasonable. Our friends had the sticky toffee cake which they liked. Sitting in a lovely restaurant with excellent service is always fun. Will definitely be back.
We ate like kings here. The portions are very generous. We ordered 3 mains off the specials menu (black cod 10/10, pork with lentils 9/10, & the Denver steak 8/10) along with a side of fries which were surprisingly exceptional, bread (11/10), Caesar salad (10/10), & warm olives (10/10) to start. Everything was delicious. Our only complaint was that the cut of steak was very very chewy & probably should have been cooked a bit more (which would have compromised the juiciness but may have helped the chewiness). I also ordered a ceasar & I think that may have been the best Caesar (drink) I've ever had.
Amazing dinner at Grillé Nature. Great restaurant with a fun vibe, delicious food & excellent service. We were a group of five & enjoyed sharing several dishes.
The fresh bread & butter to start was amazing. The Caesar salad was delicious. We loved the Lumache rose pasta . The honey butter rotisserie chicken with fries & salad was a standout, & the NY strip steak was perfectly cooked.
The fries were so good we ordered a second serving.
We finished with a chocolate sundae & sticky toffee pudding for dessert, both fantastic.
The only small note is that the seating could be a bit more comfortable, but it didn't take away from the experience.
Will definitely be back.
Best in the West! Can't wait to go back!
Highly recommend getting dishes to share. The tall salad was so refreshing. Calamari was tender, perfectly cooked. Flavourful carpaccio. Intensely beefy steak. Delicious umami fries. Perfectly balanced spicy margarita. Generous sundae.
This cuisine is straight-forward, perfectly executed, focused on the joy of eating. The menu is a mix of classics with some eclectic additions (hot avocado in escabèche, anyone?)
Went to Grille Nature with my wife, & my parents & had an absolutely wonderful experience!
We ordered the ginger shrimp & chopped salad to start! The shrimp were very tasty & the Chopped Salad tasted very very fresh!
For the main, we ordered two specials (New York steak & Black cod) & we also ordered the scallops which is on the regular menu! Steak was served in a jus that was absolutely delicious. It was cooked pretty rare & I wish it were closer to medium but it was still very very good! The black cod was also delicious. It had a slight sweetness to it (probably a sauce), & tasted very fresh! The scallops were very flavourful & super tender! I honestly would recommend all 3 dishes! (Pictures of the mains included)
The service was very polite but I found the pacing was a little off. The appetizers came in a good amount of time but it felt like 35-40 minutes between the end of the appetizer & when we got the dinner. All that being said, the server was very polite & I think she was pretty new so I should give her more slack than I am giving her.
Overall, I really really enjoyed this restaurant. It's so great to have a restaurant of this quality in the West Island
I will absolutely be back & I can't wait to try more things on their menu!
As a fan of Chef Derek Dammann & Maison Publique, I had very high expectations for this new spot. Unfortunately, despite the hype, it was one of the most disappointing steak experiences I've had in Montreal.
?The space feels similar to a refined McKiernan, industrial & modern but the ambiance was thrown off by three TVs over the bar blasting football. For the price point & the open-concept style, it felt out of place & cheapened the atmosphere.
?Service started well with a nice hostess, but things went downhill. We waited 45 minutes for our starters. The Caesar salad was unremarkable with scarce bacon & parmesan. Worse, the bread (which isn't complimentary) arrived late & ice cold with hard, unspreadable butter. We also had to ask for wine by the glass because it wasn't on the menu; the server brought bottles to the table with no price transparency, eventually suggesting glasses that turned out to be $17 each.
?But the main disappointment was the steak. We skipped appetizers to save room for the meat, which was a mistake. I ordered the $110 Australian Wagyu Delmonico special.I was told it was'Chef's choice' for temperature, but what I got was a disaster. The portion was massive (honestly, too big for one person), but the cut was absurdly thick, over 3 inches. Because of this thickness, the cook was terrible. It had an inch of dry, well-done gray band on top, while the bottom was completely blue, cold, & unrendered. For a Wagyu cut, you need a better cook to render the fat, but this was chewy & unseasoned inside.
?To make matters worse, both my steak & my partner's fillet were served in a pool of overwhelming, salty, HP-style sauce that completely masked the taste of the meat. Between the bad cook, the cold interior, & the heavy sauce, I struggled to finish even half. We ordered fries on the side, but they were oily & lacked crunch.
?The dessert sundae was good, but overall, for a restaurant of this caliber & price, the execution was shocking. I've eaten steaks all over the world (US, Japan, Spain), & this was a major letdown.
