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.
Nous y sommes allés pour prendre un verre & un dessert. L'ambiance est fantastique, les boissons sont très bonnes, le dessert est très bon. La vue est magnifique. C'est un peu cher mais ce n'est pas étonnant avec une telle vue & ambiance.
Endroit relativement cher, mais service impeccapble de la part de notre serveuse! Endroit super esthétique, très propre! Belle ambiance & très belle vue au 45e étage. Mocktails super bons & le plat que j'ai pris très bon aussi!

Excellent service & de haute classe de haut niveau de notre serveuse : Nell Très belle ambiance très beau beau endroit classe & très propre. Bon menu, un peux dispendieux par contre compréhensible pour le service l'emplacement & les chef cuisiniers! Pour ceux qui ne savent pas comme moi c'est situé au 46e étage! Recommandé merci encore !
Great views of Montréal! Loved the menu options. Food is prepared well & presentation was phenomenal. Drinks were great too. Great place to chill for lunch. Music was relaxing.
The food was mediocre, I was expecting better for the price point. The drink was absolutely HORRIBLE, made by a shaky & nervous bartender who spilled half the drink, & didn't bother to replace the spilled drink or ask for another. The only saving grace are the views from up here.

Great view of Montreal. Amazing sunset during the summer on a clear day. The bar had well curated cocktails & the food is quite good. Recommend the oysters & the ribs were amazing
117 dollars avant pourboire pour 1 seul personne c'est chère payé pour un lunch entrée/plat Cuisine à la hauteur du lieux, par contre le service à revoir, pas professionnel, pas sérieux, décevant !!! Le tarifs est exorbitant pour le rapport qualité prix Le lieu est sympa mais ne mérite pas de telle tarifs surtout pour le service reçu....
What a nice view, service & food. Excellent & refined cuisine. We met Chef Gary Durand, a very nice & passionate chef. We were 6 people & loved everything we ate, the bread mmmm The oysters Sabayon oh my God, I mean everything was exceptionally tasty & fresh. We highly recommend !
Creative fusion cuisine with touch of Japanese taste on the 45th floor of 1 Place Ville Marie. Need to take a different elevator to get to the restaurant but just follow the signs, not too difficult to find. The staff were super nice & knowledgeable, great place to come for great sunset views.

Service was friendly, obviously the views are gorgeous & the decor is nice as well. Probably one of the few bathrooms that smell nice. Food is pricy for the portions & quality. The short ribs were dry. The dumplings were pretty good especially with the sauces. The milk bread was...bread. the edamame was tasty & peeled. I did enjoy my Sakura cocktail. My friend's whiskey cocktail was pretty good as well.
Expérience assez décevante. Pour avoir fait de nombreux restaurant de Montréal de divers standings, celui-ci n'est pas arrivé à la hauteur de nos attentes. Parfait pour un drink & pour profiter de la vue, mais la nourriture est moyenne pour des prix exorbitant. Des portions minimes sous le couvert de la gastronomies. Enfin, un service qui laisse grandement à désirer. Entre le serveur qui nous culpabilise pour notre retard pour une salle loin d'être comble & le fait que les serveurs ne nous ont pas traité avec soin.. Bref. Si ce n'était du geste de la cuisine de la garder ouverte plus longtemps (geste très clément vu le retard de certains membres du groupe), le service serait de 2 étoiles. Je recommande les plats à partager qui valent plus la peine gustativement que les plats principaux.
My husband & I had baked oysters, Japanese wagyu, & milk chocolate. I loved the atmosphere, the view, & the service. It's a great place to have a special dinner with your loved one. I reserved a table a day before to request to be seated by the window. I liked all our food. They're well-seasoned. That might be good or other people's preference, but if you are like me who likes less salt & just a simple piece of steak, just maybe ask if they can put the gravy or sauce on the side instead of pouring it on top of the steak. Other than that, it's a great evening all & all.
Le service est impeccable. La vue est spectaculaire. Je recommande comme dessert le gâteau au fromage ré-imaginé; un délice fondant ou la texture & les saveurs se révèlent parfaitement dans une présentation original.
