Les avis sur Île Flottante révèlent des expériences contrastées. De nombreux clients considèrent l'établissement comme une destination incontournable à Montréal, louant le menu dégustation à l'aveugle, la qualité des produits de saison ainsi qu'un service attentionné et compétent. Les habitués soulignent souvent la justesse des accords mets et vins, l'originalité des saveurs et les petites attentions personnalisées qui rendent les célébrations mémorables. À l'inverse, certains convives rapportent une expérience plus inégale, mentionnant des lenteurs dans le service, un manque de cohésion dans certaines propositions culinaires ou des attentes déçues par rapport au prix. Si une grande partie de la clientèle salue la créativité et l'ambiance du lieu, d'autres estiment que la finesse et la régularité ne sont pas toujours au rendez-vous, rendant l'appréciation globale très variable selon les attentes de chacun.
Nestled in one of Montreals great neighbourhoods, we dined here on a lovely summer evening. The restaurant has a nice cozy atmosphere of people enjoying each others company. The tasting menu & wine pairings were fabulous. Perfectly layered tastes & textures. The service was lovely, genuine & the team are happy to accommodate. Vegetarian, allergies? No problem!
This was our third visit in just five months & for good reason. The food is absolutely delicious, with flavors that truly stand out & keep you coming back for more. Each dish is not only full of taste, but beautifully presented, like a work of art on the plate. You can tell how much care & creativity goes into everything they serve.
A big thank you to the chef Sean Murray Smith, to Jeremy & the whole team of l'Ile flottante for a wonderful & delicious evening.
I highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates great food & a memorable dining experience. Don't miss out!

What a culinary experience. Everything was good. From the food, to the drinks, to the wine… it was an exceptional 5 course meal plus dessert. The cocktails were excellent. I had 2 of the 4 signature cocktails & wanted to try them all, but also didn't want to get drunk 🤪. The service is so good. The describe every dish in exquisite detail while it sits in front or you. I wanted some wine & they brought me three to sample before I made my selection. Just from my description of the wine they were able to narrow down the selection to one I loved. Excellences
Expérience exceptionnelle au delà de mes attentes, une vrai découverte de saveur !
Nous avons eu le menu en 8 services 2 entrées 4 plat 2 dessert. Chaque assiette s'accordait parfaitement les une aux autres.
Une adresse à essayer une fois dans sa vie
Had a lovely evening at Île Flottante. The theme night featured an Asian twist, & the wine pairing was thoughtfully done. The chicken dish stood out as flavorful, while the cavatelli & the single lamb lollipop chop were just okay. The biggest letdown was the portion size, six miniature plates just didn't feel like a proper meal, especially given the $100+ price tag. Left a bit hungry, which isn't what you expect at this level. Overall, a refined concept with good execution on some dishes, but lacking in value & satisfaction. I will return to try the regular menu.
Brought my fiancé here for her birthday. Before having any food the server shattered a wine glass all over us. It was definitely not her fault & she was beyond lovely about it. But had to endure the entire meal with small shards of glass in my arm & all over my clothes. Tried to tweeze the glass out of my arms, jacket & pants, to no avail. Now I'm out a 250$ jacket & 200$ jeans. Bringing the cost of the meal so close to 800$ for two people. Seems more like a management issue than anything because again, our server was absolutely amazing & clearly just made a small mistake anyone could make (Her service was impeccable). That being said; I am beyond shocked that we paid full price when the staff was aware there was glass in my arm & my jacket pocket was full of tiny shards of glass.
We were fortunate to get a table on our recent visit to Montreal. This is probably our third or fourth visit over the years. The creativity is sustained & the complexity of the flavor is fantastic. There are more protein dishes on offer than before & I had a hard time with two dishes (quail & beef) where I had found them to be overly salty, thereby blunted the flavor of the ingredients from shining through. The two white wine we had were incredible & not usual find either. Service was efficient & pleasant.
One of our top picks over & over again.
5 étoiles amplement méritées pour la soirée que nous avons passé à l'Ile Flottante.
Le menu était un enchaînement de saveurs riches & exquises, adapté aux restrictions alimentaires de chacun.
Le service était excellent lui aussi.
Ce restaurant mérite à lui seul le déplacement sur Montréal.
