My wife & I had the tasting menu here recently in late August. First impressions were exciting as the location is gorgeous, & the restaurant is tastefully designed - with one major caveat.
When you first enter, you find yourself in a merchandise area, which I think is not the most appropriate way to start a meal/dining experience. I'll get to the food but first the aesthetics of the restaurant need to be mentioned. We were sat at the counter adjacent to the open kitchen. Every other open kitchen I've ever seen has been well lit, like a theater set almost, so the guests can watch as the chefs prepare meals. Here, the kitchen was so dimly lit that we wondered how the two chefs could see what they were doing. It made me feel like the decision was made to hide what's going on. Very odd, & frankly an unappealing design choice for the guest.
Now the food - we were first served a cold tomato soup, which was probably the best dish of the evening.
Next up was a tomato plate with two small pieces of bread, completely unseasoned tomato slices, & some miso-flavored butter. This is part of the theme here: fermentation & maceration.
At the same time a plate of'seasonal cabbage salad' was put down for us. There were slices of fennel & some scattered seeds.
The slaw was an odd dish, as I was under the impression that we would be eating farm-to-table dishes that reflect the height of the summer season. Cabbage? Not what I associate with summer.
Next up was a trout'grav lox' dish, with a very tiny portion of trout that didn't have any flavor remotely like grav lox. There was no hint of salt, dill, or other aromatics that you expect from the description. It was served with a garum foam & fish roe. I think foam in any dish just looks so unappealing, like a pool of saliva. So one bite of fish for each of us & it was finished.
Now it gets really odd. The next dish served was braised cabbage with kimchi & a tomato cream. This was the second dish served to us with cabbage. Where were the seasonal summer ingredients? Fresh garden vegetables like zucchini, peppers, corn, carrots, etc. I don't think of fermented kimchi as a summer seasonal dish that says anything about the region or terroir of Quebec.
Following that was a bison two ways dish. The bison was prepared as a tartare, & the other way was pan-seared. The tartare was basically unseasoned, which was a theme throughout most of the food we had. tartare is very common dish in Quebec, as most bistros & restaurants have at least one variety. One thing they always have in common is that the tartare is seasoned with capers, onions, herbs, & other seasonings. The tartare here was only served with a small amount of mustard seed mixed in. The seared bison was also completely without seasoning. On the plate was one very small roasted potato. This would be a small plate even for one person.
The next dish was one of the highlights. Lemongrass noodles with pork & some seasonal summer vegetables. This is more of what we were expecting. This dish was seasoned well, & had by far the most flavors of everything in the meal.
For the dessert course, we received an ill conceived shiitake & ginger flan. To me, mushrooms have no place in a dessert, & I couldn't have more than one taste of this unpleasant combination.
They also served a piece of baba, which was (I think) a buckwheat cake with sake & rose. The flavor of it was pretty good, but the cake had a very grainy, dry texture.
Overall, we were disappointed. In the variety of a tasting menu, we got two tomato dishes, two cabbage dishes, & mostly unseasoned foods in very small portions. I don't feel there was a value to the cost of our meal.
They have a beautiful place, & with some changes to the concept & the interior, this could be really great. As it is now though, I feel that it is not a place I would return to.

An absolute delight of a restaurant. Shocking that in the middle of farmland Tremblant you have a 5 star caliber culinary masterpiece. It is pricey but worth it. Wine selection is unique & incredible. I recommend splurging & going with the tasting menu to try all these special dishes. Rustic relax feel. Well worth the cost & drive.
First off, the good:
The atmosphere in the place is great & the view out onto their farm is fantastic. All the staff/servers were friendly & knowledgeable & most importantly enthusiastic about their mission - it was nice to see.
The food was solid, though nothing blew me away. The negative about the food is that there just was not enough per portion/price. They say to get three dishes per person if doing a la carte, but even that would not be enough & that is ~$80-$90 in pre-tax/tip food. I don't mind spending a lot at a restaurant, but I do like to leave & not be hungry.
The cocktails were certainly unique, & my partner & I both ordered some of the more'adventurous' ones, so in some ways we should have expected what we got. However, they were not really balanced & just did not taste good.
Overall, this was a solid night out with ambience & service that was excellent, food that was good but not great especially for the price, & drinks that could have been done without. Happy I went, but probably will not go back.
The savoury dishes are bland. The rhubarb ginger dessert is ok. Miscommunication with the server, did not resolve well. Specified in the reservation for vegetarian option but nothing was explained during the introduction, neither the adjustment.
Five stars all around. Can't miss with the tasting menu, so happy we decided to try it & pleasantly surprised by our favorite dishes vs. what we thought we would have ordered- although everything was spectacular. Staff truly care about service, product & customer experience & it showed throughout the night. Perfect ending to our tremblant vacation !
Thank you to the whole team for hosting our wonderful dinner at your stunning farm. From the moment we walked in, our group of 12 was welcomed in warmly. Everyone put time & attention into describing each of our dishes & beverages. We felt at home the entire time, & particularly enjoyed the family style plating at our communal table.
Do yourself a favor & book a meal here the next time you are in the Tremblant area!

Maison de Soma is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. After looking over their website, I had high expectations going into the evening & they did not disappoint. My husband & I were met with unmatched hospitality, staff that truly care about their roles in customer experience & educating anyone on the work they do on the farm in order to bring you the freshest, most sustainable, & nutrient dense dishes. There wasn't a single dish or drink that wasn't a 10/10. Everyone deserves to experience an evening like this. This place deserves a Michelin star.
I recently had one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time, & I can't stop thinking about it. The chefs brought the food directly to the table, which added a personal touch & made the experience even more intimate. The presentation was stunning, each dish was beautifully plated with different stoneware dishes, making it almost too beautiful to eat (almost!) Everything, from the menu to the environment, worked harmoniously to ensure that this dinner wasn't just a meal, it was a true experience. This is the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression, & I can't wait to return.
A stunning farm to table spot. We were able to sit at the bar to watch & chat with the chefs which was awesome. You can order off the menu but on the recommendation of the server we ordered all 9 dishes to split which I guess made it like a tasting menu. Everything was prepared with utmost care. Some of the dishes like the cabbage wrapped in a kimchi pancake & the duck hearts were real stand outs. There was no wine pairing so we ordered cocktails & some wine by the glass (it may have been good to have a pairing flight for everything although I understand that since this isn't a tasting menu that might be hard). The only dish that fell a little short for me was the dessert which was a beet ginger cake that seemed a little dry but maybe it just wasn't to my liking. Would love to return again in the future - the place was fantastic!
Amazing food, amazing service & amazing quality. Didier the owner was very nice & came to our table to explain his dishes & the inspiration behind them. The Mezcal, Foccacia & Okonomiyaki were amazing. Can't wait to go back in the future!

This is an experience! If you want great service & a wonderful date night with something to talk about. This would be it! My date suggested we take a photo of the plate that arrived then a photo of my face every-time I took a bite. Because it was hilarious, apparently. Each bite was so full of adventure & flavour that I would moan, chair dance & look like I was in heaven! The beef heart had use fighting over what was sharing equally. & you would never guest that Jerusalem artichoke could be so decadent! The staff was very attentive & great at giving detailed explanations of the dishes, the wine & the atmosphere was cozy but also modern. I highly recommend getting the wine pairing, you'll come away with a few new favourites. & do the 7 service it's well worth it. I can't wait to go back & try the wine bar!
