J'ai adoré mon expérience au Ratafia! Mon copain & moi avons opté pour la carte blanche & c'était parfait! Les plats étaient tous délicieux & nous avons pu goûter à beaucoup de choses! Nous avons particulièrement aimé l'omble chevalier & les croquettes de boeuf effiloché. Les portions étaient généreuses & nous étions rassasiés à la fin du repas!!

I never write reviews but this place forced my hand in the best way possible.

We were six chaotic but deeply enthusiastic food & wine-loving girls on a Montréal trip, & from the second we walked in, we knew we'd found somewhere special. The food was genuinely out of this world, very inventive & each dishes with personality. The ambiance was intimate, cozy, & somehow made us all feel effortlessly chic despite our general level of chaos. Playlist was also great!

& the service-especially from the two incredible women with glasses whose names we absolutely should have remembered but tragically did not-was next-level. They guided us through everything with so much warmth & ease, & somehow handled our group dynamic like absolute pros.

10/10 would emotionnally attach ourselves to this place again. Will recommend to everyone. Xxx

The brioche, the honey cake, & the cappelletti were excellent! The cavatelli was good in flavor but lacking in wow factor, would have loved a vegetable in there, or a protein option. Service was excellent. Music a bit loud.

I can't even begin to explain the incredible service we received here.

Everything on the menu was a surprise we had no idea what they were going to serve next, which made the whole experience even more exciting.
Honestly, I can barely remember all the dish names, but I'll try my best because everything felt like such a unique experience.

For appetizers, we were served both vegan & beef meatballs, followed by an octopus dish only my second time trying octopus, & it was absolutely delicious & unlike anything I've had before. We also had brioche & a pasta with butter, red chili, & rosemary that was simple yet so flavorful.

There was one salad that both my partner & I didn't enjoy, but what truly stood out was how the staff handled it they kindly offered us one of our cocktails on the house. That level of generosity & care is something I've honestly never experienced at a restaurant before.

& the dessert… so freaking good.

Overall, the food was great, but the service made the entire experience unforgettable.

My wife & I dream about the dessert we had here on a whim. The food is incredible. The staff are amazing. If I could speak French & immigrate to Canada then I would find a place right across the street from this restaurant & eat there every day.
