Overall it was a nice meal. Can't really complain but just not something I can give a 5 star too. Our waiter was not the friendliest to english speaking people. Meal was so so.

I brought an important client here for lunch, hoping for a polished meal in a professional setting. The restaurant presents itself as refined, & given the prices, I expected the kind of experience where the food, service, & overall execution would match the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the lunch turned into one of the most unpleasant dining experiences I have had.
I ordered the Saumon fumé maison as an hors d'oeuvre & the Contre-filet AAA as my main. From the beginning, something felt off. The food had a strange smell, particularly the fish, but I tried to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt. In hindsight, I should have trusted my instincts, especially after noticing repeated lineups for the bathroom during the meal. That is not exactly the kind of ambience you want when trying to impress someone who flew in from New York for a business meeting.
Shortly after eating, both my client & I became extremely sick. What was meant to be a serious lunch to help move a deal forward quickly became uncomfortable & embarrassing. My client ended up missing her return flight because she was too unwell to travel, which made the situation even worse. It is hard to overstate how damaging that is when you are trying to host someone professionally.
There was almost a tragic comedy to it, in the most unfortunate way possible. I came in hoping to discuss business over a nice meal, & instead I spent the afternoon apologizing while both of us regretted every decision that led us there. What a disaster!
For a restaurant at this level, this was completely unacceptable. The setting may be elegant, but the food quality & aftermath were not. I would honestly have been better off taking my client to Tim Hortons. At least then the expectations would have been clear, & the damage to both our stomachs & the business relationship may have been less severe.
I will not be returning, & I would strongly caution anyone considering this restaurant for a business lunch, client meeting, or important occasion.
On est allés avec des amis & on a littéralement vécu une expérience de fine dining. Le menu est préparé avec des produits de saison & on sent vraiment cette attention dans chaque assiette. Les choix de vins & de cocktails étaient aussi très réussis. L'équipe de service est très compétente & leurs recommandations étaient vraiment justes. L'ambiance est animée, mais sans être dérangeante. Je vais définitivement revenir.
Atmosphere & location were extra ordinary. Food wise I was disappointed with my chicken & waffles because while the syrup was advertised as maple syrup, at best it was corn syrup which almost ruined the dish. Not only is it false advertising but an insult because Quebec is the world's major producer of maple syrup. Please do better!!
Toujours une expérience agréable lorsque j'y vais, que ce soit pour le déjeuner ou le dîner, c'est un vrai plaisir. Le seul inconvénient serait le changement fréquent de chef. Les plats restent les mêmes, mais chaque chef y apporte sa touche personnelle. J'apprécie beaucoup cette approche, même si parfois je préfère retrouver mes habitudes, surtout que je reviens souvent pour le même plat.
This restaurant was amazing. Great staff, excellent customer service. Our host/waiter was Kadeem! He was phenomenal. He was very knowledgeable with the right wine pair for the meals, his recommendations for entrée were spot on. Every selection looked amazing & fulfilling. I recommend this restaurant & if you get Kadeem as your wait staff consider you night a plus & complete 😉 😀
Excellent service , for the most part (until my coffee was forgotten & we had to ask for it twice).
Can't give it 5 stars for food though. It was good don't get me wrong, but not 5 star good. A little overpriced for what we had. Steak tartare was meh…not much flavor, as was the crab cake.
3 people for dinner, entrees, cocktails, dinner & dessert with one bottle wine cost me 625$.
This place had been on my list to try for a while. Glad I went but don't know if I'd go back.
J'y était pour le petit déjeuner, la nourriture, le service impeccable, endroit très propre, mais le café !
très amer, je ne sucre jamais mais cette fois j'en ai mis. SVP changer de sorte de café Merci
I do not typically write reviews of restaurants, but I felt particularly implored to do so after experiencing such terrible service. To save my time as well as anyone reading, I'll simply put it in bullet form.
-Food was quite good, but lacking in quantity. 22ish dollars for a slice of French toast is almost criminal.
-Service was molasses-like slow & for the most part non- existent. It took the entire duration of the meal to get a refill of water. Zero attention to detail.
-The Maître d, Maxime, was not warm at all, where I felt almost like a second class citizen, seeing other clients being served even if they had ordered after us. We ordered a salad & a French toast respectively, but a whole table of 4 was served their hot meals well before ours.
-Care was not consistent as the table beside us had the courtesy of regular coffee & water refills.
-Less than stellar seating even when there was ample room in the restaurant.
une expérience des plus mauvaises, un groupe de 20 personnes de haut dirigeant dans une salle privée. Un service d'une lenteur, la nourriture froide, & pas de réponse par la suite de la personne responsable des évènements pour expliquer ou s'excuser. On se fout du client totalement
Restaurant au cadre très élégant, avec un intérieur soigné & agréable qui donne tout de suite une bonne première impression.
Les prix sont assez élevés pour une qualité de nourriture plutôt normale, sans réelle surprise. La carte manque un peu de diversité, bien qu'elle propose surtout des fruits de mer & des viandes. Le service est correct, sans être particulièrement remarquable.
Entrée-plat-verre ? 110$ (15%tip inclu)

I used to adore this place, but my recent visit was a letdown after a considerable absence.
On December 31st, 2023, I visited for brunch with my significant other, anticipating a great experience. While the waiter was amiable & described the food options well, the actual meal left much to be desired.
For starters, we had 6 fresh oysters & a delightful soup. However, our usual order of eggs benedict with smoked salmon & the hanger steak was shockingly disappointing. Despite previous satisfying visits, the quality, portion size, & presentation were all notably subpar this time. Unfortunately, I didn't take photos to illustrate.
The eggs benedict arrived on small yellow bread with the salmon scattered around the plate, lacking the usual salad & appearing notably smaller. It felt like a fraction of what they used to serve & resembled something from an average all-inclusive hotel in Cuba.
The hanger steak, ordered medium rare, arrived overcooked & resembling a brick. The fries were flavorless & overdone, a far cry from what one might expect. I returned it, opting for my usual steak tartare, but to my dismay, that too was disappointing - dry & lacking in taste, with an unappealing presentation.
When I inquired about the drastic change in quality, the manager informed me they had changed chefs. While I refrained from stating it, it seemed apparent they should consider replacing the new chef swiftly. Even the dishes served to others nearby lacked appeal.
The manager offered three small pastries to compensate for the inconvenience. Considering the $200 CAD bill (inclusive of a surprising $66 for two glasses of champagne, totaling $87 with tax & tip), it felt inadequate.
Montreal boasts numerous exceptional brunch spots, & unfortunately, this one won't make it back on my list unless I hear promising reviews in the future.
Excellent meal. Started with cocktails (souvenir & epiceree) - both were top shelf.
Steaks for two family members (ribeye was extremely flavourful; filet mignon was tender as expected). Other members had the the sea bass & the salmon - also expertly finished. Everything was plated well & was accompanied by equally good sides. Desserts were top notch. Highly recommend!
Kind of disappointed. Was really looking forward to eating here. We were a group celebrating a birthday.
Food was overall good, some dishes better than others. My braised beef was good but not anything to write home about.
Service was friendly & very attentive at first, but quickly tapered off. We were waiting forever for dessert.
When it came time to pay, the server demanded a minimum of 18%, which I was going to do anyways, but the way this was broached could have been done more elegantly.
We were a group, so as is typical, were the last ones to leave. When retrieving our coats from the coat check, the servers just took them all & plunked them on the desk so we felt very rushed. I understand they want to go home, but there are better ways to communicate that message..
The venue is beautiful but the restaurant seems to just be missing a few key details to be excellent.
