Super beau restaurant. Certains plats sont bons, calmars excellent, l'agneau était tiède & pas assaisonné. Toutes les assiettes sont froides. Serveur complètement absent. Il a pris notre commande sans nous offrir d'appéro & on l'a pas revu de la soirée. Il fallait toujours demander aux autres serveurs & suiteurs ce qu'on voulait.
Service incroyable, nourriture impeccable! Notre serveur Andy a été très gentil, serviable & patient. La service en général a été parfait, merci beaucoup!
We had brunch there as a family last Monday. We were pleasantly surprised. This restaurant is so pretty! Food was delicious! Would definitely recommend it! & we will come back for sure next time we are in Montreal.
Genuinely shady is the best waiter ever. I only rate it five stars because he gave us the best experience possible at a restaurant. Food was good, he was amazing. 100% recommend
Le cadre est magnifique. Nous étions assis au bar près de l'entrée, mais malheureusement l'expérience a été très bruyante puisque l'endroit où les assiettes étaient débarrassées se trouvait juste à côté de nous, au sol. Les serveurs lançaient littéralement les assiettes, au point où nous avions un peu de la difficulté à nous entendre parler.
Nous avons pris le menu dégustation 6 services.
Les deux entrées étaient assez quelconques : le sashimi de dorade & les huîtres Rockefeller manquaient de wow. La salade grecque était décevante, avec des croûtons tellement durs que j'ai cru me casser une dent & 3 petits cubes de feta.
Quant à la pieuvre, j'avais de grandes attentes venant d'un restaurant grec. Le goût était bon, mais la cuisson était ratée : elle était trop cuite, filandreuse, sèche & pâteuse.
We were there on a Monday at 7 PM, a table of 3 at the bar. The night started well with great drinks & a very pleasant bartender. The restaurant has a beautiful décor &, for once, I could read the menu without my phone's flashlight. We asked for recommendations to share & ordered a total of 6 plates: 3 appetizers & 3 main courses. The waitress asked us if we wanted the appetizers first or everything at the same time, & we answered that whatever was easiest for her was fine. We got our appetizers & they were great. We even ordered a second round of drinks because we were enjoying the ambiance.
Unfortunately, after that second round of drinks, the service disappeared. We waited for nearly 1.5 hours. We saw two rounds of clients at the bar get their drinks, food, desserts, & bills before we even got our main courses. To top it off, we were offered the dessert menu before getting our actual food. When we asked the bartender to check on our order, we found out the second course was just never sent to the kitchen. We understand mistakes happen, but for a meal where each of us paid $150+, it is completely unacceptable
Nevertheless I had a great time because I was in great company.
Will update my review the next time I come by.
Loved this restaurant!! It was fabulous! Had a chic 70s modern decor in gold tons. Nice big table for our group by the wine selection. Friendly & attentive staff.
Great wine selection. I loved the white we tried. It was light & refreshing.
We tried the shrimp dip with tomato & feta. So yummy with pita. Also had the spanokopita salad & I loved this!! A salad built on this is a great idea & was delicious. We also had the lamb kebab..so delicious. Served with red pickles onions, tzatziki & a little salad. So delicious . The meat was tender & juicy.
For dessert we had the shareable phyllo pastry with custard & it was delicious. Not too sweet & love the crispy phyllo.
- Nourriture moyenne & assez cher ( plat 3 demi crevette dans mon assiette & agneau très cuit & sec // dessert correct )
- une salle très belle malgré que très bruyante pour un dinner un mardi soir (salle non complète )
- service très agréable malgré 2 mails reçu le lendemain indiquant un no show & sous entendant une facturation supplémentaire
