Excellente soirée. Depuis la dernière fois le service & la carte s'est considérablement amélioré, & c'était super bon. Peut être un chouïa overpriced sur quelques plats mais ça ne m'empêchera pas de revenir.

Loved Josephine! Would be perfect for date night. I went alone & sat at the bar on a Friday & it was pretty empty. The fish special was out of this world, & I loved the oysters & the mignonette hot sauce that came with it. You are paying $$$ for not a big portion, just note that. I walked out a little hungry but knew I wanted something lighter. & it is still worth it for the flavors. One of the best meals I have had in Montreal!

Came by myself on a sunny Wednesday around 6pm-place was pretty empty so I got seated & served right away. Drink landed in just a few minutes, & my half seafood platter ($55) was on the table within 15. I also had their tequila cocktail ($16), which was a solid pairing.

The oysters were fresh & really good, though I wish there was more than one sauce option-they only serve them with a homemade jalapeno mignonette, which isn't my favorite. But then came the shrimp... absolutely insane. Easily the best shrimp I've had in recent memory. The salmon gravlax was super fresh, & the tuna tataki was delicious too.

Yeah, it's a bit pricey, but honestly, the quality of the ingredients makes it worth it.
