Went for lunch. Air conditioning was broken so it was very warm. Our waitress (Layla I believe her name was) was absolutely terrible. Spilled a beer all over the table & over our phones with a very half hearted apology. Took 10 minutes to get a replacement. We each ordered a simple salad & the whole lunch ordeal took close to 90 minutes. Luckily we weren't in a rush. This particular server needs a whole lot more training , or needs to seek employment in another field. Simply terrible.
Went with a customer last night, group of 8 to pointe claire, quebec restaurant. Took a very long time to get our meals & 1 meal of 8 took an additional 10 minutes to come. Unacceptable for a $300 plus meal. In cases like this the manager should have come to apologize, he/she did not. While the food was good (but fries were cold & ice tea too watery), while the waitress was very nice, with the poor service on food wait time I will not go again.
This place is going to close by next summer. Food is not edible other than fries. Wine is ok. Service is average. Honestly drinks only. Place is pretty but that is where it stops.

Went here for dinner. I got a rib eye steak, medium well. I would say it was the best steak I've ever had. Perfectly cooked & had no seasonings. I've gone to other restaurants where there's so much salt on the steak that i almost couldn't eat it. I've also had the chicken club for lunch & it was also fantastic. My girlfriend had the fish tacos & she's loved them as well. We'll definately be back
We visited on a Saturday afternoon & got seated pretty quickly. Overall, the experience was alright; I particularly liked the ambiance & the service. However, there's definitely room for improvement when it comes to the food. The coconut calamari was quite good, with a subtle coconut aroma. The steak was decent, & the salmon tartare was also fine. However, the salad choices were a bit limited. I don't eat goat cheese, so I asked if there were any alternatives, but they said the only option was to remove the cheese entirely. We ended up ordering the Caesar salad, which was average. The poke bowl was just okay, I ordered this just to get some veggies. Unless you're craving for veggies, not recommended to order poke bowl here. My friend ordered the curry dish & said was good.

Way overpriced for the quality of food/drinks you get. It's by a mall so that might be the reason. This is a Montana's quality food at best, which is not saying much. Won't go again. Service was good though.
Place was nice staff spoke English with was a plus because we only speak English not French..lol food was really good my grandson had the pasta & he ate the whole thing. Staff was friendly.

Had a lovely birthday dinner at Milestones & it was such an incredible treat! 😋 I'm from Toronto so I've been to many milestones before but Fairview/Quebec have done it right. Beautiful restaurant, incredible atmosphere (shout out to the bald manager guy, he was so funny & hospitable with us) & even tastier food (was told Chef Katerina made our plates!!) highly recommend!
We went for lunch. Enjoyed an amazing Bellini, their signature frozen cocktail, delicious. We chose from the lunch menu: salmon tartare & chicken mushroom tagliarini. Both were excellent. Our waitress was very professional, sweet & attentive, I wish I remembered her first name (on the bill it says V. Basal).
The server, Claudia, was on point on all counts. Great atmosphere & ambience. The food however, was lacking in flavor, veggies very very under-cooked, had a lot of trouble biting into it. My sirloin steak was requested medium rare, but I received a medium-well one which was really difficult to chew & bland. Don't think I'll return here.
What an amazing place to dine & have a good evening. The decore the lightning & the service where top nudge. We celebrated my husband birthday. & we're definitely coming back there for more.
