Une très belle experience de restauration. Service impeccable. La nourriture sort de l'ordinaire & est très bon. Ambiance chaleureuse quoique un peu trop bruyante à mon goût. C'est quand même un peu cher, mais ça en vaut le coût.

Si vous recherchez une expérience culinaire digne de l'Écosse, vous devez vous rendre chez Bruce.

Dès mon entrée au restaurant, j'ai été accueilli par un serveur fort bien sympathique & enthousiaste quant à notre venue. Le professionnalisme règne dans le restaurant.

Nous étions un groupe de 5. Nous avions commandé presque l'entièreté du menu & il n'y a pas eu de regret. Nous avons fait d'extraordinaires découvertes.

D'abord, nous avons commencé, en entrée, par les croquettes de poissons, le boudin noir pané, les pleurotes & les maitakes grillés ainsi que le saumon mariné. Nous avons reçus ces trois derniers en premier. Je crois que les choix étaient bien balancés puisqu'on avait la fraîcheur du saumon qui venait contre-balancer la panure & la lourdeur du boudin noir. Les champignons représentaient plutôt un entre-deux qui venaient réchauffer les coeurs en cette froide & rude journée d'hiver. Les croquettes de poissons nous occupèrent dans l'attente des plats principaux. Nous avons eu la chance d'en recevoir un nombre supplémentaire en guise d'offre du restaurant.

Ensuite, nous nous sommes mis à l'attaque des plats de résistance. Le Haggis & le jarret d'agneau furent dévorés en un rien de temps.
Tout les gens autour de la table donnèrent un note de 10/10 pour ceux-ci. On dit souvent qu'une image vaut mille mots: je crois aussi qu'un plat vaut mille sensations. Les deux plats étaient accompagnés d'excellentes pommes de terres qui fondaient dans la bouche & de carottes spécialement cuites avec l'amour d'Écosse.

Nous avons terminé notre soirée avec le succulent pain au gingembre & le fameux cranachan. Je peux vous dire qu'il était impossible de mieux finir. Je peux vous aussi vous dire secrètement que nous avons tous très bien dormis avec un ventre si plein.

Merci encore au restaurant Bruce pour cette expérience. Ce nouvel emplacement mérite sa clientèle.

My first Scottish restaurant in Griffintown & a really awesome venue 😇😇 We loved the ambient atmosphere & the staff was super nice, kind, & helpful 🙏🙏 From the maître d' to the server & the bartender it was fantastic service the entire time! We had the Chardonnay & then moved into the appetizers - sourdough, goat butter, & croquettes & it was beyond tasty ❤?❤? For the main dish I had the lamb shank with risotto & my husband had the Fish of the Day & each bite was super delicious ❤?❤? Our full compliments to the chefs for making such a gourmet's delight made with so much attention & care 🙏🙏 Finally for dessert I had the chocolate mousse & my husband had the ginger loaf & it was heaven on earth ❤?❤? Cannot wait to come back to this 11/10 Scottish restaurant & try other amazing items on its menu with the best staff & service 😇😇

I can't believe this is a new restaurant, because it doesn't feel like it in any way.

It instantly feels cozy, rustic & timeless. You get the Scottish tavern feel with incredibly elevated dishes, full of flavour & heartiness. The charred oyster mushrooms are out of this world, the sourdough bread with goat butter is unreal. It's comfort food that will satisfy even the most discerning foodies of Montreal.

The service was incredible. The attention to detail, from cleaning up between every course, to refolding the napkin when you go to the bathroom, to taking your coats as soon as you enter & giving the right ones back without asking. Flawless.

You can tell there's serious high-end hospitality experience behind this place. It feels polished but never pretentious, refined yet full of soul. What a unique blend!

I've never been to Scotland, although it's on my list, but this place made me feel like I experienced a little piece of it right in the heart of Saint-Henri. It already feels like a neighbourhood staple, & it's definitely going on my list of places I'll bring friends visiting from out of town. Outstanding.
