I know it is a dessert place but I find odd that there are 3 desserts (one half dessert) on the tasting menu. It is a bit much for my liking. Aside from that, everything was wonderful

Excellent restaurant auquel je retournerai sans le moindre doute. Excellent plats salés, vins à la hauteur & que dire des desserts qui sont vraiment à ne pas manquer! Service également très professionnel! Je m'étonne que ce ne soit pas plus connu! Vraiment à essayer, que ce soit pour un repas ou pour un dessert avec accord alcoolisé (ou non).

Très belle soirée au Ratafia.
J'y suis allée avec ma soeur. Nous avons adoré. Le menu est très créatif & DÉLICIEUX.
Plats salés:
Churros : Délicieux ! L'Aïoli yummy !
Champignons : Délicieux. La texture intéressante.
Pâte : Beau plat, belle présentation, mais c'est le plat que nous avons trouvé le plus ‘'fade''. (parce que les autres étaient trop WOW ;p
Agneau : Mium, très très délicieux & la sauce à la coriandre avait un petit goût de ‘'revenez-y''.
Fromage : Une belle surprise ! Le mélange parfait dans la bouche. Le craquelin sur le dessus & la ganache ajoutaient au plat. C'était ‘'bon dans la yeule''.
Plats sucrés :
Café : Tout ce qui est à mon goût est mis dans cette assiette, en finesse & quantité parfaite. Pas trop sucré, bon goût de café. Mium.
Cheesecake : Étonnant & bon ! L'amertume du caramel à la chicorée. Note parfaite à ce dessert. Je fue surprise par la compote & la tomate & ça marche.
Bravo, bravo & longue vie !

Les 3 premiers plats étaient délicieux mais trop de desserts. Il devrait avoir 1 plat fromage qui est très sucré & 1 dessert maximum. L'attente entre les plats était beaucoup trop long. Par contre, le service était très agréable

Présentation & raffinement des plats incroyables, autant visuellement que gustativement! Le manque de protéines dans la sélection des plats véganes est selon moi le seul bémol, car ils nous laissaient sur notre faim. Clairement on y retourne, pour l'ambiance, la carte des vins & les desserts notamment!

Outstanding. Of course famous for their desserts, but the meals & cocktails are also top notch. Love the decor & ambiance, a very classy & contemporary joint. Great place to bring a date or a (small) group of friends. Just don't show up hungry because the portions are very small.

This was my second time at Ratafia, & it was just as incredible as the first time. I travel to Montreal for business about twice a year, & this has become a staple spot I will visit every single time I'm in town. I came alone the first time, brought coworkers the second time, & will continue bringing as many people as I can to discover this gem! The desserts are stunning in presentation & taste, the food & drinks are delicious, & they even have non-alcoholic cocktails! Every dish has amazing attention to detail with textures, layered tastes, etc. Just fantastic.

The food was incredible! The staff were attentive, exactly how you would want (not annoying lol)

Don't be worried about the small potions, it takes your stomach 20 minutes to tell the brain it's full, this restaurant times their food to perfection so that you realize you are full by the time dessert comes.

Such a perfect way to celebrate a birthday. Thank you
