By far the BEST oyster place in Montreal. They have so many different variety of oysters (different tastes, textures, sizes, etc). The quality & taste is out of this world. Best go-to one-stop summer spot! I can't get enough of the oysters here. Can't wait to go back. Yum yum yum.

Suite à certaines recommandations, j'ai commandé 2 douzaines de Chebooktoosk , & à ma grande surprise le calibre étais RIDICULE .
Certaines huîtres étaient presque vide tellement c'était minuscule ….
Payer 80$ pour cela est honteux .
Si vous vendez ce calibre trés petit dites le au clients pour un minimum de transparence .

& pour répondre à votre commentaire : j'ai l'habitude de manger divers calibre de huîtres mais permettez moi de préciser que ça n'a rien à voir avec des 3' . Certaines étaient presque vides . & effectivement la taille peut varier mais ma commande toutes les huîtres étaient très petites . Fruit du hasard ou malchance ?
J'espère que mon feed-back sera constructif !
