Review Summary

Hiatus is widely recognized for its spectacular, panoramic views of Montreal, which provide a stunning backdrop for special occasions and dates. While the atmosphere is frequently described as elegant and the staff often praised for their professionalism and warmth, the dining experience receives mixed feedback. Many guests find the French-Japanese fusion cuisine to be flavorful, refined, and beautifully presented, particularly highlighting dishes like the milk bread, octopus, and filet. However, recurring criticisms point to high pricing, small portion sizes, and inconsistencies in service, with some visitors feeling rushed or neglected despite the premium cost. While many consider it an unforgettable destination that justifies the expense, others feel the value is not always aligned with the quality or quantity of food provided.

Excellent food- the cod, the ribs, the gyoza, octopus, the steak, lobster & duck all exceeded our expectations! The dessert was average but overall, it's one of the best restaurants we've eaten at in Montreal in a long time. Beautiful views & a beautiful restaurant. Highly recommend!

Food was good & the view was beautiful but the service was terrible. This is a very expensive restaurant & we had to wait a really long time for drinks. Also, our waiter never asked us if we wanted any more drinks. I don't recommend this restaurant. Just go to the café a floor below & have something inexpensive there & see the same gorgeous view-save your money.

Came here for a friend's birthday. Wanted to thank Sally for organizing & being very helpful. Can't ask for better service. & the 2 servers as well! Food was okay, I'd recommend the lobster. I'd come here again for a date, but highly simply because the view is superb. Reservation highly recommended.

C'est la deuxième fois que l'on vient & toujours une très bonne expérience. Le service est plus que parfait. La cuisine est très bonne. Le choix des associations est surprenante & les produits sont de qualité.
Le lieu est magnifique donc je n'ai rien à redire. Je leur met 9/10 car on peut toujours s'améliorer mais c'est vraiment pour être critique !!! Merci beaucoup pour ce moment
