Olive et Gourmando's nocturnal sister: Foxy. Wood fired cooking paired with plenty of veggies. Charred flatbreads, grilled meat and fish. Rustic, seasonal, and honest. Cozy atmosphere and relaxed dress code. Welcoming young children for early service only.
Reviews portray Foxy as a lively, wood-fired, chef-driven spot where many dishes shine, from scallop crudo and maitake mushrooms to halibut, bluefin tartare and inventive cocktails, while the open kitchen and counter seating add to the show. The dining experience is praised for impeccable service and bold flavors, but the price tag can feel steep and portions are sometimes small, with a few visits noting menu changes and some uneven execution. The terrace is a highlight when weather allows, and guests often leave with a strong impression of originality and quality even when opinions vary.
Je suis allée lundi pour la première fois. J'ai demandé à la serveuse quelles sont les cépages sur les vins au verre car ce n'est pas indiqué. Elle m'a demandé ce que j'aime & m'a amené une coupe de vin. À ma grande surprise lorsque la facture est arrivé à la fin & que j'ai vu que le prix des deux coupes de vins était 38$ chacune. Pourtant les prix des coupes de vin dans la liste n'étaient pas ce prix là. Je n'ai rien dit & j'ai quand même payé mais je trouve ça vraiment pas correcte de ne pas le dire avant. Je suis sur un budget & je ne sors pas souvent au restaurant. C'était hors de mon budget! Juste à cause de ça je ne vais pas retourner à ce restaurant!

Great ambience with the wood burning cook fire. We had a great waiter who was attentive to our needs. It was wonderful to meet the Chef & express our appreciation for the exceptional meal. The cocktails were inventive & delicious.
The beef tartare was probably the best dish I had, but a bit too salty. The main dish which was the fish had almost raw potatoes. Just not what I expected for the price.
Merci Marc-André pour le service exceptionnel! On est tellement content d'avoir eu la chance de savourer tes recommandations pour l'entièreté de notre soirée! Une superbe soirée, merci à l'équipe ☺?
The taste was delicious but the portions are ridiculous!!! True highway robbery. You pay 18$ for on carrot cut in 6, & 28$ for two mushroom heads. Be aware that everything you see on this menu is equivalent to 4 very small bites. Even the gnocchi that was supposed to be sharable wouldn't be enough for a child.
I don't mind paying for expensive dinners yet this one had 0 quantitative value to it.
I usually never do this, but my experience there was terrible. I came by myself on a busy Saturday night to have a spot at the bar & the sitting they gave me was horrible. Constantly being hit from behind of the servers & guests as I was sitted on an island in a high foot traffic within a tight corridor. I think this place is meant to reserve in advance & i'd like to give a second chance since the ambiance overall was great.
Deuxième fois & pas la dernière. Une cuisine inspirante & originale avec des saveurs à la fois raffinée & gourmandes.
Un service impeccables & aux petits soins.

Une très belle expérience dans ce restaurant bistronomique aux influences indonésiennes, telles que ce céleri rave à la cardamone ou l'omble d'opercule cuit dans une feuille de banane & sa sauce gado-gado, un des six trésors culinaires de l'archipel !
Tout est parfaitement maîtrisé, avec un service très fluide. Chaque plat a une identité bien marquée, qui lui est propre, & apparaît donc totalement différent des autres.
Un très beau voyage que je ne peux que vous recommander !
You just know the food will be excellent if there's an Argentinian grill displayed in the center of the restaurant. Everything was so original & enjoyable to devour.

I don't think I can say enough good things about this place.
I have eaten at Michelin star restaurants all around the world. A lot of them are generally tasting menus. Which I do believe foxy may offer. However, we chose the Comptoir chef seating. Which means we got to sit at the counter & watch the chefs in action it was such an amazing experience.
When you first walked into the restaurant, you can smell the wood because they cook everything over wood & it is such an amazing smell. It sets you up for a great experience right from the beginning.
We sat at the counter as I mentioned. At first, I was thinking while this counter is awfully tiny. How is this going to work. But I do find that the servers staggered the food & placed everything precariously in a way that made it all work. So yes, it's a small space but it worked just fine.
We ordered a bunch of items to share between the group. We started with the Scallop Crudo & the feta & pita. I personally loved the scallops more than the pita, but my coworkers loved the pita better. Then we moved on to The Little gem salad & the Capelletti pasta. Both were fantastic. Last we had maitake mushrooms & cod. The mushrooms were a meter event for me! I've obsessed with mushrooms, & this was absolutely incredible.
The server came by & asked if we wanted dessert. We decided to have oysters & carrots as our dessert. Lol we saw the chefs making them & they just looked so incredible that we couldn't resist.
This is going to sound really strange, but those carrots were really one of the highlights for me. I can't explain it. They were just so incredibly flavorful & it was something I will think about for a long time.
The only negative for me is that I didn't really love the wine selection that the server suggested. However, wine is such a personal preference that it's not really his fault. It just it wasn't for me.
Major shout out to Jenna. She was manning the oven closest to us. & she was doing everything with a smile. She was explaining the process to us. She was doing such an incredible job. She made the experience even more fun.
I will 100% come back here when I am back in Montreal.
Top expérience. Première fois, certainement pas la dernière. Souper de fête avec mon garçon d'un an & demi & la famille. Staff hyper accueillant, bouffe remplie de saveurs & de textures, cocktails, mocktails & vin super aussi.
Merci !
