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.

There were two of us, & the service was truly attentive. The food was excellent & beautifully presented, with a detailed description of each dish. I ordered the lobster ravioli & the grilled octopus, both of which were incredible. & what can I say about the selection of oysters, apart from their diverse origins & freshness? Incredible! I will gladly return !!!

Excellent restaurant & la carte dans le cadre de Montréal-à-table offrait de belles options. L'entrée de pieuvre était spectaculairement savoureuse.
