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!
Huis Clos comes across as a cozy neighborhood spot with a lively bar scene and a welcoming vibe. The ambiance, friendly staff, and karaoke on Saturdays every other week stand out, along with a strong drinks program. Oysters are repeatedly praised for freshness, while some dishes such as macaroni and cheese with brisket are dry and disappointing, and a few small plates like salmon tartare, sliders, and hot dogs may lack flavor. The bathroom setup is pointed out as a drawback, with a faucet that is not practical and brown paper on the counter raising sanitary concerns, and service can feel slow during busy moments. Karaoke nights and humor events add to the lively atmosphere, making it a fun place to gather with friends, though overall value can be uneven and prices sometimes high.
Went there over the summer once & went back for the Oystermania event. It was a good experience, I love their oysters but the food is good too. While it's not a big menu, every item I've tried so far has been delicious. We ordered pot en pot comme une chaudrée. Salmon tartare & two pizzas (bolo & champignons) in addition to the oysters. We left happy & surprisingly full. I also enjoyed their cocktail that came with the event special, a sprizt, it was very refreshing.
Nous y sommes allés dans le cadre de la semaine Oystermania pour manger des huîtres & souper là. Accueil très chaleureux, service impeccable & souriant, huîtres vraiment délicieuses (Conway Pearl du Nouveau-Brunswick, espèce à retenir) & mets tout aussi savoureux (ex.: tartare de saumon, foie gras au torchon, pot-en-pot de fruits de mer...). Vraiment une excellente soirée! Petit bémol, c'était très bruyant, mais ça prouve que le restaurant était rempli de gens heureux de s'exprimer fort... Mieux qu'un resto vide, n'est-ce pas?
La nourriture & les drinks sont super, mais c'est next level bruyant. Je pense qu'au bar ça doit allet mais d'un côté à l'autre d'une table de deux personnes on ne s'entendait pas parler.
La nourriture est super bonne! Le tartare de boeuf est excellent. Mais, le service été très lent. Le serveur nous a amener nos plats sans prendre les assiettes sales de nos entrées. Ils ont rester sur la table pour 3 heures.
Un restaurant aux allures de bar avec un menu très surprenant & un service sans faille. Le restaurant était plein lors de notre visite (ce qui fait beaucoup de bien post-pandémie) & l'atmosphère était parfaite! & quoi dire de la musique... que du bonbon!
