Montreal Plaza is widely celebrated for inventive tasting menus, creative pairings, and a playful, bold design that makes the dining experience memorable. Dishes are described as fresh and imaginative, with standout seafood preparations and striking presentations; service is frequently praised as attentive and friendly, though a few notes mention moments of snobbery, gaps between courses, or inattentive staff. The atmosphere is lively, quirky, and stylish, but can be quite loud, which may affect conversation. Some reviewers question the value for money, citing small portions or high prices relative to the portions and service, while others feel the quality justifies the price and celebrate occasions with a special night out. Overall, Montreal Plaza remains a popular destination for those seeking adventurous cuisine and a unique ambiance, especially for celebrations, though experiences vary in pace and perceived value.
The atmosphere is nice & some of the dishes are quite unique. However, I have been served undercooked/raw duck for the yakitori, making the experience less enjoyable. So be mindful if ordering this item. The IPA however is one of the best I have ever tasted.
Montréal Plaza is a wonderful place with delicious, creative food & a fun, lively atmosphere.The staff is friendly & the unique décor makes the dining experience special.
The service here is exceptional-staff are detail-oriented, attentive, & truly knowledgeable. The food is a standout, offering unique & inventive flavor combinations that are as delicious as they are creative. But what really won me over was the decor! Whimsical, quirky, & full of personality, it adds so much charm to the dining experience. Highly recommend giving this place a try!
Quelle superbe première visite chez Montréal Plaza. Des plats minutieusement préparés, d'une créativité certaine & très savoureux. Service exceptionnel sur tous les plans de l'accueil jusqu'à « l'au revoir ». Ambiance unique, décors spéciaux, c'est beau partout où on jette notre regard.

It was kinda expensive, but worth every penny as each bite was scrumptious. My favorite was the Foie Gras + Melon-such a unique combination, & I've never tasted anything like it before. The ambience was amazing & unique, & the staff were friendly too!
Visited: May 4, 2024 Meh. It's unique presentation & cool ambiance, great service BUT honestly the food is really not worth the hype & price that comes with it. Wine list is A1 though.

Nous avons prix le menu dégustation & WOW! Le mélange des saveurs était parfait & unique. Que dire de la présentation qui était sublime. Plusieurs produits locaux. Service est particulièrement incroyable. Nous avons passé une superbe soirée & avons déjà hâte de récidiver l'expérience.
Let me start with my appreciation for the passion & skill it takes to create a menu so complex & bold. Lots of unique combinations & daring dishes. The food was excellent; 10/10.
There is something missing with the flow. We arrived at 9pm & ordered at 9:05pm. The server was excellent annd professional. Our drinks came at 9:15pm with the oysters. Great start!
It took another 30 mins for the fois gras. Another 40 mins for scallops & mushrooms. Another 30 mins for bourguignon & salad. Each with a plate change. I appreciate the attention to detail, but you’re missing the bigger picture. More than half an hour between courses is just unacceptable for this scale of dining. We had an almost 3 hour dinner service, for 6 dishes. We were starving for 80% of our service, & tables beside us were complaining about the exact same thing. I do not fault the service or kitchen staff, this is a problem with standards & expectations of management/owners.
Amazing food, great team but hopefully some reflection with your menu. I suspect having 10 daily specials on top of a regular menu filled with complex dishes/ingredients is excessive & overwhelming your young kitchen team. They delivered exceptional quality, but we won’t be returning anytime soon & I can promise half of the patrons tonight feel the same way. No one wants to eat dinner past midnight. Even for Europeans, that’s too much.
L'originalité du menu composé de produits connus provenant de fournisseurs de choix & apprêtés de façon unique. Le filet de doré était excellent. Les ailes de poulets étaient d'une tendreté indiscutable. Oui, ce soir-là il y avait des ailes de poulets...& que dire des moules glacées! Le charme du décor a réussi à nous faire sentir comme si nous étions invités dans une belle grande maison. Grande classe mais pas guindé du tout. Tout a été bien pensé. Service impeccable. J'y retournerai car j'ai envie d'essayer tous les plats offerts sur le menu. Prix comparables aux restos de cette catégorie.
