J'ai adoré mon expérience! Merci à Mathieu & à toute l'équipe pour l'excellent service. La terrasse est magnifique, les cocktails signature délicieux & les huîtres à 1$ vraiment généreuses. Je vous recommande aussi le tartare de thon qui était excellent. Je suis retournée 2 fois pour cette entrée.
Service vraiment très lent, un vendredi soir. L'agneau de mon conjoint était mal cuit.
Peu d'options végétariennes, seulement du poisson ou viandes en met principal.
Excellent emplacement & ambiance.
We recently had a corporate dinner at Heritaj, & it was a great experience. The ambiance was perfect for a team gathering-very polished. The service was attentive & friendly, & the food was excellent across the board. Everyone enjoyed their meals, & the overall experience contributed to a memorable evening. Highly recommend for group events or team dinners!

Un lieu magnifique, une cuisine délicieuse & des serveurs au petit soin !
Que dire de plus, nous avons passé un merveilleux moment.
Petite dédicace à Mathieu qui a rendu notre soirée incroyable !
This is a Wednesday evening with temperature just above freezing point & decided to have dinner at Heritaj. It is normal at this time of the year that the restaurant is not overly busy.
We received a very warm greeting in this upscale restaurant with a sophisticated decor & inviting atmosphere.
We ordered the Carré d'Agneau du Quebec Aux Rabioles Biryani, Thon Rouge à La Niçoise, Moules Palourdes & Kebab Masala. Heritaj specializes in Indo-French cuisine & these menus are exactly the chef d'oeuvres of this restaurant.
The Carré d'Agneau (Rack of Lamb) was cooked to perfection, so tender & meaty on a myriad of veggies like Brussels sprouts, coriander & pistachios … & a touch of biryani spices.
The Thon Rouge (Is it yellowfin or bluefin tuna?) is lightly seared, perfectly medium-rare, with a delicate crust & a vibrant ruby-red center. Served on top of a crispy papadum, complemented by a fresh herb salad, & a drizzle of zesty emulsion for a bright, citrusy finish.
The Moules & palourdes (Mussels & Clams) is an impressive plate. I mean impressive. Very French Italian spaghetti sauce, meatballs & lots of onions. Did I say lots of thick, finger licking sauce? This is a plate for 2 adults … easily. I have to deduct half a star for some sand in the mussels or clams.
I would have preferred a bit less aggressivity on the salt level. Overall, simply delicious, with good service.
Nothing can be finalized without having a look at the washrooms. There are 4 individual unisex locked cubicles, clean & shiny, with a touch of equipment sophistication, like a feminine hygiene disposal unit & a fresh air dispenser. There is one main dual sink outside the washroom, equipped with touchless faucet, soap dispenser & an automatic Dyson Airblade hand dryer.
I believe there is a paid underground parking that the restaurant would pick up the bill.
Totally recommend if you are looking for an upscale dining experience.
Superbe restaurant dans le vieux montréal! La nourriture est délicieuse, les couleurs des mets sont superbes & le service est exceptionnel. Les cocktails sont aussi beaux que bons! Nous avons adoré le foie gras, les pétoncles & les boulettes d'agneau. Nous avons hâte d'y retourner!
