J'aurais tellement aimé garder cette adresse secrète !
Tout était parfait : l'accueil, l'ambiance, le lieu… & que dire de ce qu'on a eu dans nos verres & nos assiettes ! Mention spécial au Wasabilicious ! Un vrai 10/10 !
On est venus fêter l'anniversaire de mon conjoint, installés au bar : super feeling avec les serveurs, une playlist au top… On a adoré, & c'est sûr, on reviendra !

Le restaurant est ouvert depuis seulement 3 semaines mais toute l'équipe travaille déjà en synergie pour nous offrir une expérience extraordinaire. Nous avons demandé au serveur de nous amener des plats appréciés des clients en lui donnant notre budget & nous avons apprécié ses choix & il a respecté le budget. J'y retournerai sans aucun doute

The food, vibes, & service at Phillips Bar were amazing. We came as a group of four & had such a great time. Cocktails arrived quickly, followed by a steady flow of food. One of the highlights was the crispy chicken skin with truffle mashed potato dip-absolutely delicious. I'd recommend choosing one or two items from each section of the menu. It was so fun having the table filled with different dishes & being able to mix & match flavors. After enjoying all the small plates, it was great to finish with the Teishoku-the hot service. We were lucky enough to try the snow crab on its last day of the season, & if it ever returns to the menu, it's a must-order.
