La machine pour payer la facture n'était pas fonctionnelle & nous a occasionné un retard à un spectacle... fort désagréable comme situation.
Les huîtres étaient délicieuses, notre serveuse fort gentille.
via LibroVery good all around. Wonderful time & was consistently surprised with pleasure at the quality & exceptional service.

We booked a table on the patio for 8:30pm on a Wednesday. When we got there, we got told that they don't take bookings for the patio & that we have to wait like any walk-in people (?). We finally got a table around 9:15pm, but they never gave us menus, so we waited another 20 minutes to get them (& we did have to ask for them!)
9:40ish, we finally started ordering & everything was fine after that. The food looked & tasted very good. We tried the oysters, calamaris, octopus & mussels.
Conclusion: don't bother booking & don't be in a hurry!View more

Josephine was recommended by concierge Caroline at Le Mount Stephen & it was the perfect suggestion for meeting a local friend while visiting Montreal. We shared the seabass with sauce chien & rapini. Despite being beyond delicious, we were unable to finish the generous portion meant for two. The very knowledgeable with their wine list & accommodating server (food allergies) took very good care of us.
Will be back next visit!
