Where do I even begin to describe the incredible experience we had at Restaurant Hélicoptère recently? From start to finish every single person at the restaurant was kind, engaging, knowledgable about food & wine, & just delivered 15/10 service.

We had a group with a few dietary restrictions that we commented well in advance & the team both back of house & front of house delivered quality, innovative, & incredible delicious food.

I had the vegetarian tasting menu with a wine pairing & enjoyed the seasonal & fresh ingredients.

The cost for quality, portion size, & wine

Thanks to everyone for making my friend's 40th birthday dinner so special.

I have been here twice which two different menus & I literally leave so full & so impressed with the knowledge of the servers, the art of the food & the overall atmosphere. Wine pairings are superb. Their tasting menu is very well thought out. I cannot recommend this place enough

This place is perfection. Do the tasting menu & the wine pairing - spring for the dessert wine. Vincent was incredibly knowledgeable but approachable & made the night. Will be back!

The food here is incredible. Whether you go with the well-priced tasting menu or choose your own combination of à la carte options, you can't go wrong - the food is fresh & local, the dishes are creative, overall the meal is well worth the price. Combined with the quaint but lively atmosphere, this place is sure to please.

That said, it's the service that makes this place really shine. We were fortunate enough to have Cedric as both our server & bartender, & it was easily the best service we had during our stay in Montreal. He really made the meal that much more special.

In short, if you're even thinking about going to Helicoptre, just do it. You won't regret it.

Beautiful food, great wine & lovely hospitality we went for the tasting menu which was an excellent choice, & a few too many cocktails in the next door speakeasy.

A little loud, food was all cold/room temp at best for some reason? Portions were small for the price & lacking in seasoning. Maybe the tasting menu would have been better? Who knows.

Le tasting menu était excellent avec des produits frais du terroir. Les accords IP qui allaient avec les plats étaient sur la coche. À chaque fois qu'on vient, le menu change, les vins aussi ce qui fait que l'expérience est 10/10! Je recommande 100%
