Hiatus consistently delivers an exceptional dining experience anchored by breathtaking city views from the top, refined Japanese-French fusion dishes that are beautifully presented and flavorful, and attentive, professional service that many describe as top-tier. The tasting menus and course services are widely praised for variety and pacing, with standout wine pairings and inventive cocktails noted by guests. Some critics mention very small portions for the price and occasional slow or uneven service, while others point to a busy atmosphere or reservation hiccups; nevertheless, the combination of views, ambiance, and high-quality food and service makes Hiatus a memorable destination, especially for special occasions or sunset dining.
Very nice experience. The food quality is excellent & did not disappoint. We were a party of 4 & no complaints were made, we all enjoyed our meals. The drinks, however did disappoint. First drink I asked for a Litchi Martini, they brought me a Litchi Martini with a cherry in it, the litchi really is the best part of the drink, my second drink, an Amaretto Sour, no sugar around the rim, detail is not at its finest with the bartender. The views are spectacular, unfortunately the design & decor is not. The seats & table are almost cafeteria like, a very minimalist design, not warm or inviting. I would go again for the food & to see the sunset from such a beautiful view.
Un moment parfait ! Les plats était excellent. Le service était tout aussi bien les serveurs était très aimable. Attentionné. Tout ce qu'il faut pour un bon service ! & l'endroit est juste magnifique. C'est un sans faute pour nous
Exceptionally beautiful scene of Montréal from the 45th floor. You are given plenty of time to indulge this scene because you are served with the speed of a raged snail. You can order exceptionally good food or inedible one depending on your luck, but you can eat everything because the portions are designed for a 5 years old.
Superbe restaurant avec très belle décoration, moderne mais chaleureuse & épurée. Nous avons très bien mangé, original, très bien présenté. La météo n'était vraiment pas clémente, mais la vue de la ville de nuit était malgré tout très belle. Un endroit à faire absolument à Montréal!
This really was such a great experience from the moment we stepped in till we left. Words cannot describe how tasteful the food was. We order the brioche wagyu, was 12/10. The view is stunning, staff if super friendly. Will definitely come back
Situé en haut de la Place Ville-Marie, panorama exceptionnel par temps clair. Convivialité du service. Qualité des mets servis. Ambiance détendue, calme, facilitant les échanges entre convives.
Nous sommes arrivés plus que prévu. Ils ont étés super réactifs, montage de nouvelle table, menu de groupe improvisé. Super service... & quel diner ! Merci à vous, & à la prochaine !

My husband & I moved to Montreal in January & we dined at Hiatus to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This was by far the best restaurant we've eaten in. On the 46th Flr of a commercial building, it has a spectacular view of the city. We had an amazing window seat, so got to enjoy such a beautiful city. Our waitress was lovely, personable, & attentive. We ordered delicious cocktails & a ton of food. Each dish was beautifully presented, delicious, & flavorful. This is superb Japanese fusion & has taken it to a new level. We thoroughly enjoyed a magical dining experience here & HIGHLY recommend it!
