Hélicoptère fonctionne comme une destination axée sur le marché, mettant l'accent sur la préparation de produits de saison et de protéines de haute qualité. L'approche culinaire souligne la clarté des saveurs grâce à une exécution technique précise et une attention soutenue portée aux ingrédients régionaux provenant directement de producteurs locaux. Les assiettes sont conçues pour mettre en valeur les textures naturelles tout en conservant un équilibre sophistiqué entre les composants savoureux et une acidité vibrante. La salle à manger dispose d'un agencement ouvert favorisant un lien direct entre l'équipe culinaire et les convives tout au long du repas. Le décor minimaliste souligne les matériaux bruts de l'espace, reflétant la simplicité de l'approche présente sur le menu. Chaque élément remplit un objectif précis, contribuant à une expérience cohérente qui privilégie l'intégrité des ingrédients avant tout.
Hélicoptère est largement considéré comme une destination gastronomique incontournable à Montréal, réputé pour ses menus dégustation créatifs mettant en valeur des produits locaux et pour son hospitalité exemplaire. De nombreux convives louent l'établissement pour ses plats innovants, leur exécution soignée et ses accords mets et vins cohérents, soulignant souvent le service professionnel et passionné comme un élément central de leur expérience. Bien que la grande majorité des clients décrivent leurs visites comme sublimes et parfaites pour les occasions spéciales, certains commentaires mentionnent des incohérences occasionnelles concernant le rythme du service, le niveau sonore ou l'assaisonnement de certains plats. Malgré des avis partagés sur la tarification et l'ambiance après les rénovations, l'endroit demeure hautement recommandé pour ceux qui recherchent une aventure culinaire réfléchie, saisonnière et de haut niveau.
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%
The rare popular restaurant that combines incredibly delicious food with impeccable hospitality that was the most wonderfully accommodating. A member of our 6-person party surprised us by bringing 2 additional people along, & the team didn't make us feel uncomfortable at all-despite the new size usually implying their large party rules of tasting menu for all-& managed the situation by demonstrating flexibility & kindness that's rare to see these days. On top of that, the service throughout & the food itself was exemplary - oysters, challah, little gem, tomatoes, beef tartare, oyster mushroom, scallops, lobster, short rib - incredibly well done. & dessert of course ensured we left delighted after a truly outstanding experience.

Amazing food, we got the tasting menu with the wine pairings. The plates were unique, great presentation & even better taste. I tried hard not to lick the plate LOL. The sumac spritzer cocktail was interesting. The wine pairings were so-so. A couple of interesting ones but I think that's one area that they can potentially improve. Service was top notch, friendly & on time but not in your face. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is great, & the atmosphere outside on the street, well let's just say it's entertaining. We watched a whole police pullover of a car & search of their trunk while sipping wine! Overall, highly recommended & will definitely be back.
Had a delicious lunch here. The tasting menu was incredible! They had options for vegetarians & pescitarians & were accommodating. The service was friendly & extremely knowledgeable. Our server was the gentleman working the Saturday lunch. Would recommend to friends & family!
Great dining experience! We went for lunch & ordered à la carte. Be prepared to order more plates than you'd think. The dishes are small but full of flavor. We ordered the challah bread, the sourdough, the oyster mushrooms, & the beef tartare (first photo). In the second photo, we had the scallops & the guinea fowl. I would happily reorder everything. Next time, I'd get the tasting menu because I now know all the items on the menu are reliably excellent.
Came here for dinner & had their tasting menu. I was impressed by the quality, taste & creativity of these dishes. Loved the mussel starter. The oyster mushroom was to die for. I had mixed feelings about the trout since the different sauces felt a little confusing & didn't really go well when mixed together, however, each component was executed well. The duck was very flavourful & had extra bread to soak up the sauce. Parsnip dessert was very creative & delicious. I enjoyed the texture & balance of this dish. Bonus points for the fact that it wasn't too sweet.
Wonderful experience. From the moment you walk in everyone was warm & inviting, especially the bartender. Did a solo dinner at the bar & was able to take part in the tasting menu with wine paring which was superb. Everything was explained, conversation was educational & genial & of course both the food & wine were delicious. Would go back in a heartbeat.
Thoughtful attention to detail from food to service. I appreciated that very much. We were a group of 3 & had the tasting menu. We were served some of the dishes as one single serving & one shared serving for the two of us sitting on one side of the table. I thought that was weird....either serve three separate plates or one plate to be shared by all of us. My favorite was the mushroom & bread dish. My least favorite was the bitter lima bean plate. I would come again but probably order off the menu as opposed to the tasting menu.
We did the tasting menu with the wine pairing at the bar. The bartender was absolutely amazing. I wish I got his name to give him a shout out. The tasting menu was excellent. I liked that some of the dishes are for each person, & some come out like a little platter to share. The guinea fowl was so good! I loved the piklis on the tartare. Unique touch. Everything had bold flavors, & they care about using the whole animal or vegetable. Also you can't go wrong when there are tiny dinosaurs to play with lol
