Food & the experience were great! Prefix menu + wine pairings were well worth the price. The team walked over & & explained the food & wine in detail prior to each serving.

I put two stars instead of one because the place was generally packed the entire time & clearly other people love it, but my group absolutely did not like the food. It was a four course set menu, but the flavors were not it at least for us. Some of our party got wine & they also were not a big fan of that either. I will say that the seating area is cute & there's a nice vibe in the restaurant, but we could not get past the food. The four course menu included a course of cauliflower then something with tomatoes & what tasted like cinnamon & then a main dish of fish or mutton, & finally cheese or cake for dessert. I also found the food took a lot of time.

Incredible, worth every penny. Visited in October & was blown away by the outstanding service & exceptionally creative menu. Particularly loved the wine pairing, roast pork with radicchio, & the incredible savoury dessert (buttermilk cheese with grilled shishito pepper). I strongly recommend to anyone in Montreal to spoil themselves to this menu in full, you will not be disappointed.

All perfect! Everything was delicious. Open kitch. A tad bit noisy, especially when getting the dish & wine info from our hostess but still, will be back soon!

Beautiful restaurant, great service, great wine selection & really appreciated that it's farm to food. We were so pleasantly surprised. The tasting menu catered for a vegetarian & another dairy free. The location & terrace was stunning surrounded by all the herbs grown by the restaurant & fairy lights. A night to remember thanks to the amazing food & service

Gorgeous restaurant with great food. Wine list is one of the most creative & well-thought out that I've seen in Montreal. Definitely worth the pairing menu.

Bread: 10/10; wine: 8.5/10 (4 out of 6 wines were extraordinary, one was just decent, one was ok); kohlrabi entree: 9/10; tomato soup: 5/10; halibut plat: 8/10; cru berger fromage: 11/10; maple ice cream: 10/10.

Super lovely team with so many attentive servers & chefs.

The set menu was fantastic, with a few delightful surprises along the way. My personal highlight was the asparagus starter, which is enjoyed by hand - a fun & unique experience. The wine pairing was also excellent, featuring some great local selections. You can really tell the staff love what they do, which made the evening even more enjoyable.
