Review Summary

Name's On The Way generally receives praise for its vibrant atmosphere, energetic music, and excellent service, making it a popular spot for social outings and celebrations. Many visitors highlight the quality of the martinis and the cozy decor, noting that the staff is often accommodating and friendly. However, experiences remain mixed regarding the food, with some guests finding the dishes delicious and well-prepared while others criticize the high prices, small portions, and inconsistent quality. While the venue is frequently described as a fun and lively destination, some patrons have expressed frustration over strict reservation policies, entry management issues, and concerns regarding drink preparation, suggesting that while the establishment has significant potential, consistency across the dining and nightlife experience remains a point of contention.

What an amazing spot! Me & my friend went for their martini happy hour & didn't realize reservations are a must. The host was super accommodating even though they were fully booked & we ended up getting a table! The martinis were delicious & the burrata & foccocia was to die for. The pasta dish was nothing to write home about but still good. Also super affordable for the quality I would definitely recommend this spot!!

Excellent experience at Name's. The staff were so responsive, professional, & friendly. Tommy did such an excellent job as our bartender. The food & cocktails were high-quality (especially the special, the pappardelle), & the music cultivated a very chill & easygoing vibe. Would absolutely return when we visit Montreal again!

This is arguably the best place to go out in Montreal on any day of the weekend. The staff are incredible, the ambiance is even better, the DJs are always curating the best vibes & playing off the energy of the crowd. If you want to come for a bite with your friends you will be blown away by the amazing hospitality & the quality food & service that will transcend you into another realm. This place is a must if you are a foodie & a person who can enjoy good vibes, excellent music & a great atmosphere.

We felt really pressured to order food even though we didn't book for dinner & were already consuming a lot of drinks... The quality of each drink isn't really consistent but the options are nice. At the end it was really too packed to move but the music was cool.

The quality of the food & drinks is great. The interior design & space of the restaurant are great. The service was good. It was a tiny bit too loud between 6:30 & 9 pm given that we were trying to have group conversations over dinner. Overall I would recommend this restaurant before many others.
