J'ai été pour les huitres & le poisson du jour mais ce sont les desserts qui m'ont le plus impressionnée! Tout était très bon.

Je me suis rarement autant régalé dans un restaurant ! Le repas était excellent, tout comme les mocktails. J'ai choisi le « Thé Pêche », & c'est sans doute l'un des meilleurs mocktails que j'ai goûtés de ma vie.

& que dire des desserts, de véritables créations aussi belles que délicieuses - un pur plaisir pour le palais.

Merci au serveur & à toute l'équipe pour cette expérience remarquable. Un vrai régal du début à la fin !

Huîtres délicieuses, moules curry-coco succulentes, les frites étaient parfaites, le dessert chocolaté généreux & parfaitement dosé. Service attentionné. Une belle découverte!

Nous avons profité du menu MTL à Table & avons bien mangé. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié l'entrée de tartare de saumon, les gnocchis aux champignons ainsi que la tartelette au chocolat en dessert. Un pianiste jouait près de nous, il était excellent, mais le volume était un peu trop élevé, ce qui rendait la conversation difficile. Malgré cela, l'expérience a été très agréable. Le seul point négatif reste le stationnement dans ce secteur de Montréal.

The grill is excellent (octopus & flank steak)
Calamari are cut small but seasoned & crispy
Desserts are well made with strong contrasting citrus flavours

Très joli restaurant, spécialisé en fruits de mer & ça paraît !
Les ✨ huîtres étaient délicieuses (surtout a -50% avant 19h!) & le ✨ menu découverte (59$ par personne) a été un coup de coeur absolu à chaque étape (courgette, ravioles au homard, terre & mer vivaneau & bavette, dessert financier trio d'orange & cheesecake)
Je le recommande chaudement, rarement testé un menu découverte aussi savoureux, complet, & qui reflète terriblement bien les forces & spécialités de la maison !
Gros merci à notre serveuse pour les recommandations de vins, nous reviendrons assurément très vite ! ❤?

Restaurant petit, mais cuisine & serveuses excellentes. J'ai essayé le bar rayé, avec des raviolis au homard. & un petit dessert chocolate avec framboise. Belle découverte !

My friends & I loved our dinner at Josephine so much that the next night, we skipped dessert at another restaurant to go back to Josephine for a post-dinner seafood snack! The seafood is so fresh & delicious, & the service & staff so friendly & welcoming. The dish we really wanted (the grilled lobster) had just been sold out, & the server was so amazing & friendly, joking with us about our feigned disappointment. A big highlight of our trip!

The restaurant design is beautiful. The food sublime & delicious. Hugo, who has the pride of an owner for this restaurant, hooked us up with wine we'd never had that we loved ( & we are picky winos) as well as honestly suggesting the best dishes in the house. The lobster ravioli ( fresh pasta)& the steak was to die for. The grilled zucchini, heaven. The calimari, delicious & didnt taste like the bad fried versions we all know. The almond cake for dessert, so light, flavorful & yummy. Sauveria was also so lovely with us. They both were a joy. You felt completely welcome. Can't wait to go back.
