Took over 45 minutes to get our food after ordering, & my medium well stake looked like & felt like it was welldone twice in a row. Service is only good of you can understand a French accent. The atmosphere is really good though.
Excellent Bar. Bartender was great. He made me a margarita, even though its not on the menu. Great staff. The food was very good too. Nice bar area, nice seating area for dining. TV's & sports on. Great spot.

First you wait 5 minutes to called in. Then you wait 15 minutes to put your order in. Next you wait 25 minutes to get your omelette. Waitress never came back to refill your coffee or water….Finally you wait another 20 minutes your check. The place was less than 1/4 full…
If you're on a tight schedule, short on time, or expect solid food at a fair price-you'll likely be disappointed. Waiter was rude & rarely check on me. Had to ask multiple times for my water to be refilled. NO vegan options. Not worth $100CA
If you are in a hurry or would like good food for the money you pay, do not come here. Had the breakfast BLT & there was 2 shrivelled overdone balls of bacon on a bagel for $20. We were unsuccessful getting additional coffee or water. Avoid & find another place.
The nachos were overcooked. Served was good. Came back at 1835h for more food after a flight delay & they said they were closed despite online saying they closed at 2000h.
Stopped by the Houston restaurant at YUL for a quick bite before my flight. The cauliflower popcorn was actually quite good - nice crunch & flavor - though there was a bit too much sauce on the salad it came with, which made it a little heavy.
Tried the fish tacos as well. They were tasty, fresh enough, but nothing particularly memorable. For airport food though, they did the job. I wish they offered plant-based options though other than Cauliflower popcorn.
Service was good - our server seemed pretty busy but was still friendly & attentive enough, especially considering the typical pace & environment of an airport restaurant.
As expected, prices were on the higher side for what you get. I still think it's a bit of a rip-off, but I guess that's the airport standard these days.
Overall, a decent option if you're passing through & need something quick & satisfying.
The food are very decent, I had the Texan burger. However, I'm more impressed with the service. I forgot my phone in the restaurant & the staff / manager quickly help bring it to Lost & Found.

A decent sit down airport restaurant. Food is good. I ordered the Houston burger with fries. The flavours were fine, nothing life changing but not disappointing. As far as airports go, it's fairly priced I think since everything past the gate is overpriced.
Service was quick & kind enough. I'd eat here alone again if I have some time to waste.
4 stars taking into consideration location (past security in airport) & expectations of airport places.
The food was bland. We waited 30 minutes for our food & I do get that it was busy, but it would have been nice had our waitress told us. She disappeared & was nowhere to be found. Another waitress, Yul, was very nice & apologized for the long wait.
This was a phenomenal layover meal with incredibly friendly service! The portions sizes are huge & the food was delicious. Our waitress Karen was hilarious & told us most of the staff had worked together for over 20 years, making this place feel almost like a local diner vibe. When in transit, these little joyful interactions add a lot to travel, so we were very grateful for the hospitality & warmth after a full day of travel!
The pasta is a great vegetarian option & there are lots of healthy items on the menu as well. Highly recommend for a pre-flight meal!
Had breakfast. Ordered the ciabatta sandwich with eggs. It was less than average. Who puts tomatoes with eggs. It tastes odd. The potato wedges were old & heated & this was old. The waiter was nice.
Le plus mauvais club sandwich de ma vie . Toast brulées, tomate en puree pourites, poulet presse en tranche de 1/8 de pouce d'epaisseuret pas de bacon . 26 $ plus taxes & services : 40$
