Restaurant Huis Clos, located on St-Denis in the Villeray district, has it all! Discover this friendly neighborhood bar for one of their famous 5 Oyster, where you can enjoy 5 Malpeque oysters for only $8. The menu also has an excellent choice of dishes to please all tastes. You will also be charmed by the impressive wine list, not to mention the delicious cocktails! The always friendly and excellent service will allow you to forget your troubles. Come meet your friends after work, and have an unforgettable time!
Overall, Huis Clos is described as cozy and well kept with a warm neighborhood vibe, strong cocktails and attentive staff, where oysters and other seafood dishes are frequently praised and the atmosphere can be festive with music or karaoke; the kitchen is seen as thoughtful and the menu offers options for many tastes, though some dishes feel small or lack flavor and service can slow when crowds are large. A few critiques focus on the bathroom setup, including an impractical faucet and a roll of brown paper that seems unsanitary, creating a jarring contrast with the rest of the space. The place is considered a must visit in Villeray with a pleasant terrace in season. A rare hiccup at a raclette event involved an expired liqueur and missing ingredients, with staff offering a discount on cocktails or alternatives. In summary, Huis Clos comes across as a reliable spot for a warm and enjoyable night out with friends, good drinks, friendly service and a welcoming ambiance.
Cozy , tasty, great staff, great drinks, atmosphere but please fix the bathroom situation.
The faucet is not practical, a roll of brown paper on the counter is just not sanitary or efficient & raises questions about the clientele & their dirty hands. The contrast with the rest of the bar is jarring. Do you not want us to have clean hands ?
Huîtres excellentes & quel bon spécial 5 à huîtres. Les autres plats étaient petits & manquaient de saveur (tartare de saumon & boeuf, sliders, hot dog).
Service courtois, mais un peu long. Il faut dire que nous étions un grand groupe.
Ambiance festive !

Un excellent endroit pour bien boire, ils ont des très bon spécial pour les shooter & le service est impeccable. Le gars qui m'a servis Dimanche était vraiment bon à son travail, comme un artiste confortable dans son art. C'était spectaculaire de le regarder oeuvrer avec les cocktails.
Un incontournable de la vie dans Villeray!
L'endroit est soigneusement tenu. La carte offre des choix pour tous les goûts & l'ambiance y est très bonne, musique &/ou Dj. L'on peut profiter de la salle, du bar comme d'une petite terrasse à la belle.saison!
Excellente expérience au restaurant Huis Clos! Nous avons savouré une pizza burrata, des huîtres avec Tabasco du Québec & un tartare de saumon, tout était délicieux. Service & suggestions remarquable de Pana, toujours souriant malgré l'achalandage & le fait qu'il était seul dans une foule de clients. Mention spéciale également au cuisinier pour la qualité des plats!
