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.

Maison de Soma was such an incredible discovery. The team really went the extra mile to make us feel at home, they were very welcoming & the atmosphere was nice & cosy with a little chic to it. We had the tasting menu & the food was absolutely delicious with seasonal ingredients from their farm. Definitely a must try!! Parking is easily accessible & it's a nice car/motorcycle ride getting there too! Everything was perfect! Thank you!
La maison de Soma a été une merveilleuse découverte. L'équipe a offert un service impeccable & au delà de nos attentes pour nous accueillir chez eux & immédiatement, nous nous sommes sentis les bienvenus.
L'ambiance est champêtre avec une touche de modernité & de chic. Le chef nous a concocté un menu dégustation des plus exquis avec des aliments de saison en provenance de leur ferme. Le stationnement est facilement accessible & une belle route pour s'y rendre pour les amateurs de voiture/moto. Bravo! Une expérience des plus réussies.
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 !
We traveled to Mont Tremblant from the eastern US with four other families to ski over our Spring Break. We discovered Maison de Soma after researching options for a dinner out for the parents (arranged babysitting at the hotel) & booked for a group of 8. This booking was for a tasting menu experience.
We arrived to discover an amazingly charming & brilliant structure with traditional farm house vibes yet modern touches. We were welcomed by the owner who was on the front porch with his family enjoying a spectacular sunset.
We were then led into the dining room with an open kitchen concept that was perfectly appointed & had a killer view across the farm to the setting sun. The servers were kind, prompt, informed & were able to recommend some very interesting wines which paired with the multiple courses of the tasting menu.
The Food - absolutely some of the most inventive, interesting & delicious food that we as a group have ever enjoyed. Each plate somehow complemented & expanded on the previous. Every ingredient was from the farm (or neighboring farms) & really ran the culinary spectrum in preparation, flavor & taste.
The Vibe - could not have been more perfect. As the restaurant filled with patrons the atmosphere continued to enhance & complement the wonderful meal we were enjoying. The setting sun, the open kitchen, the exposed beams, the clean white walls all combined into a near perfect dining experience.
The Cost - expensive but no more than one would reasonably expect for that experience & significantly more affordable than such a meal in NYC, Boston, Philadelphia etc.
Summary - if you are in the Mont Tremblant area & really appreciate incredible dining, it would be an utter shame to miss this experience. We cannot wait to return & will definitely be visiting again as it would be worth the trip just for another meal at this amazing destination!
Postcard beautiful location. Food was exceptional. Service was amazing. Loved chatting with the chef & servers about each dish. We ordered everything on the menu which was perfect for 2 people & a common way to have a tasting experience.

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!
Maison de Soma is a welcomed addition to the Laurentians (Laurentides) area of Quebec, just a short drive away from Mont Tremblant. Off the beaten path, the surrounding around is lush with fields, gardens, crops & forest. Entering Maison de Soma is incredible to see as it has a stunning interior. You are immediately greeted at the door - unfortunately from a service standpoint you're just told that cost hangers are in the corner. A restaurant of this caliber (& price) should have someone assist with grabbing jackets to make you feel taken care of. We were there for brunch, & there is only 1 option - the $65 tasting menu for brunch. It's accompanied by $15-18 cocktails made beautifully with great local spirits, & wonderful ingredients. The cocktails were simple & great. Unfortunately again, the only option for coffee was a carafe of what looked like pour over; no option for lattés, cappuccinos. I would actually have a bigger expectation that they would do lattés made with matcha, or golden milk (turmeric) or milk steamers sweetened with something from the land such as mushroom. But nothing. The first thing I noticed about the menu was there was nothing sweet on the tasting menu, so to get a dessert, you had to purchase an additional addon which was available (& delicious), but another $12. This has already become the most expensive brunch I've eaten at. The food has a ton of Asian inspiration, but is almost a very Nordic style of eating - simple, clean, elegant & from the land. The first course was a barley porridge, which was warm & thoughtful, tasty pieces of well rendered pork, although slightly under seasoned. The second course came in the form of three sharing plates, which I was not a fan of at this price - just make individual plates. The cured fish again was mild in flavour, the major punch coming from the acidity in the ferments & pickles. I was really looking forward most to the porchetta as it was a cold day, & I was looking forward to warm & comforting pork. What we got was a shared plate with about 6 deli-thin slices of cold porchetta that was lacquered lightly with sauce & torched before being served - would have enjoyed it more hot & maybe a bit more wet from sauce. The bao bun with shallot was shoft & chewy, great texture, & the egg on rosti was very very good - although the way it read on the menu, I was reading it as we were missing a dish due to the printing of the menus had an error where this course read as two courses due to spacing errors, but really it was one dish covering two lines of the menu. From a food perspective, I can say the highlight dish was the add-on ginger custard dessert with quince & meringue. The meringue added texture that was slightly missing from the rest of the meal. Overall, the bill for two was $230 which places it the most expensive brunch I've ever had, & on par with the price of the three 1-michelin star restos I ate at in Italy this summer. I love the concept, I love the location & the ambiance & decor is beautiful. I could have done with the porridge, the egg & the dessert for $35, 3course prix fixe & the food would have then been a 4 or 5 star. Regardless....very happy to have this beautiful addition in the Tremblant region - & would still recommend.
