What a unique culinary experience of an underrepresented cuisine - modern Caribbean. Delicious & wonderfully spiced dishes. We had the hummus, shrimp & braised pork to start, absolutely delicious, the pork was so tender & paired very well with the plantain fritters & vinegar coleslaw. Mains consisted of vegetable curry, jerk chicken & the lamb shank, all seasoned to perfection & comforting, I really felt the love. Do yourself a favour & order the sweet potato dessert, a mix between pumpkin pie & spice cake, perfect for fall & winter. Coffee with coconut milk & rum is a must. Friendly, courteous & quick service in a cozy & homey atmosphere, music not too loud (this is a pet peeve of mine & this place absolutely passed the test). Even though the restaurant was full, there was a nice calm vibe throughout the entire service. The owner came to our table & chatted with us which is always a nice touch, definitely recommend for an intimate dinning expérience.View more

We tried this restaurant for MTLàTable. Everything was great at first including the first course. We had to wait a long time to receive our mains only for them to arrive warm. That said, the taste of the lamb was good. I had initially ordered a bottle of sparkling water but I only received it when asked again for it. Same thing for my friends glass of wine. Finally we had to wait so long to receive the dessert because they made a mistake in the kitchen & even longer to receive our bill. I had to wave down another waiter to ask for our bill. The atmosphere is very cozy but a little too warm & dark. You can't really see what you're eating if you go for a later reservation. Overall, during the first course I was thinking to myself that I would definitely come back. Unfortunately, at the end of the night my thoughts weren't the same.View more

We tried this place for Mtlatable & the location is unique & off the main part of the street. The ambiance is very nice however a little hard to see menu as it was very dark inside with only one small candle on the table. The servers are nice & the chef was also present to make sure customers were enjoying their experience. We ordered from the 50$ menu which had a 3 course meal, appetizer, main & dessert. The appetizer I had was the jerk shrimp, I didn't taste the jerk & cabbage was a little undercooked. The main course I had lamb stew but as you can see from the picture it was quite raw & I did not enjoy at all. I was offered another main in its place. The dessert was basic but good, reminded me of an undercooked brownie. I did enjoy the place but I don't think I would go back.View more

Tellement décevant! On commande deux bières en apero, elles arrivent en même temps que le repas...l'assiette de poulet jerk: poulet tiède supposément servi avec des légumes...un bout de carotte, deux minuscules morceaux de poivrons. On a rien commandé d'autre parce que la serveuse n'est jamais revenue & on est allés prendre un café & un dessert ailleurs...total 90$ avant pourboire!View more

Went yesterday for a birthday celebration. The restaurant is beautiful & the service is amazing. Waiters are attentive & polite. We took the 50$ menu that includes an entree, plate& dessert. Please note that many options on that menu have additional fees - therefore you're not really paying 50$. The food itself was very well flavored & presented! I ABSOLUTELY enjoyed the full fish! The passion fruit sauce served with it was perfect. Loved my dessert. My entrée however was just ok. The lambi/lobster wasn't really present in the dish so I don't recommend it. Overall, I recommend trying this location!!! I'll definitely be back.View more

Agréable découverte ❤️ Ambiance feutrée, choix de musique au point. Notre serveur JP était attentif & le reste du personnel efficace. Nous avons choisi de partager 5 entrées à deux. Chacun des plats étaient délicieux. Nous avons fini la soirée avec un dessert & un café haïtien du soir avec rhum délicieux & aromatique. Nous avons eu même un chanteur live. Nous sommes conquises

Un peu déçu cette fois-ci. Notamment, il ne restait qu'une bière disponible & mon mari que j'invitais pour sa fête est un amateur de bière blonde. La fois précédente, nous étions allés après un spectacle d'après-midi & avions l'option de rapporter repas si trop copieux, mais cette fois-nous étions avant un spectacle donc, ce n'était pas possible de prendre un dessert, etc. Nous reviendrons sans doute a un autre moment. Merci!

Loved the experience. The evening we were there, we enjoyed live music that accentuated the lively, blissful ambiance of the restaurant. The food was terrific, including dessert. Topped of the meal with a hearty glass of Grog. Delicious.View more

Belle expérience dans le cadre de Montréal à table, les deux premiers services étaient excellent ainsi que le vin proposé. On a moins aimé les dessert, les très long temps d'attente ainsi que l'insistance du serveur. A réessayer l'été sur l'énorme terrasse.View more

Extremely noisy, so noisy that we didn't want to stay for dessert. The cod fritters were terrible. The vegetarian curry was mediocre. Would not go back,

Je dois avouer que j'étais déçu de ma visite.ce n'est pas ma première fois à Kamuy mais cette fois la qualité du service a vraiment diminuee. Les drinks sont mauvais.désolée je ne peux le dire autrement .ce n'est pas le souvenir que j'avais pourtant . J'ai vu une autre table à mon côté retourner leur verres également .Je ne crois pas que le barman détient les qualifications nécessaire pour faire des cocktails . C'était décevant .Le personnel est courtois mais débordé. Le restaurant n'étais pas plein pourtant . Peut-être c'est les commandes à emporter .. enfin après 1heure d'attentes nos desserts étaient toujours pas servi . La serveuse s'est excusée & nous les a offert avec un shooter . C'est très gentil.Cependant j'avais hautement vantée à ma soeur qui venait des US comment se restaurant était délicieux & unique . Elle n'a malheureusement pas eu la chance de partager mon expérience . La nourriture est toujours aussi bonne .

Belle expérience en amies.
Du cocktail au dessert, tout était délicieux, copieux.
Beau décors, belle ambiance.
Musique un peu trop fort par contre, difficile de discuter sans crier pour se faire entendre.
Notre serveuse était par contre peu au fait des plats & des cocktails, à y revoir.
Somme toute, on y retourne sans hésitation.

Tout, absolument tout, du cocktail jusqu'au dessert, des entrées jusqu'aux plats principaux, était exquis, délicat ou relevé là où il le fallait, délicieusement savoureux, sans compter un service attentionné mais sans obséquiosité. Une expérience à renouveler avec plaisir.

Great place & location. Appetizers were very tasty - had the ceviche & the fritay (mixed deep fried croquettes). My main course of the passion fish (sea bream with mashed potatoes & a passion fruit coulis) was excellent & my wife was quite pleased with the jerk chicken. Desserts (rum & lava cakes) were equally tasty. Enjoyed a colada type cocktail whose actual name I can't remember. Ambiance was very chill. Server was very helpful & given we were on our way to a show, the service was very timely as well. Would recommend.

This is a bittersweet review. The food was amazing: originality, creativity & taste . Really, hats off to the owner & the whole kitchen team. The pork in the griot was OUT OF THIS WORLD. It was the perfect balance of crunchy on the outside yet so juicy on the inside. & as as someone who usually never touches the side cabbage salad, I have eaten all of the pikliz that was served. It married so well with the fattiness of the pork because of the beautiful balance of flavors & texture (sour, spicy & crunchy). Me & my partner have enjoyed their Dumbrey as well. The lobster dish was decent although there was more lobster shell than there was lobster meat (approximately two tiny lobster meat pieces of not even 1cm of width & 3-4cm of length, which can be understood as lobster prices are usually high). The lobster did taste fresh & we enjoyed the grains underneath (possibly riz collé?). The drinks were decent & the moelleux au chocolat had the perfect sweetness. I found that the rum taste was too strong in the rum dessert & the cinnamon (or other spices) taste in the pain patate too strong (may differ based on personal preferences). Now, my problem is with the service we have received. I have worked more than 4 years part-time in Montreal restaurants as a student so I can confidently say that I know what I am talking about. Usually, waiters make the first contact within 10 minutes (GROS MAX). We spent more than 30 minutes waiting for a first contact with a waiter. We saw the waiters talk amongst themselves as they seemed to be unsure of who had our table. Our waiter ended up coming after 35-40 minutes of waiting. His name is Jonathan & I have seen him dancing to the music next to the bar while we were waiting & taking shots with a group of girls right next to us. I would have been understanding if the waiter was busy, but from we have observed, he was not. He had 3 small initial contacts with us: 1st for small talk & to inform us that he will be bringing water to us, 2nd was to ask us what we wanted to order for drinks, 3rd was to ask us what we wanted to order for food. On both 1st & 2nd times, Jonathan quickly left when we were starting to tell him we were ready to order drinks & food. Most of the times, he would leave to the table with the group of girls to take shooters & chat with them. On the 3rd time he came around, we had waited for at least 45 minutes, close to 1 hour. When we had told him we were ready to order, he replied with "déjà?". My partner & I looked at each other puzzled because we had been ready 15 minutes after reading the menu & it had been more than 45 minutes since we were placed at the table. Later, the busboy had mixed up our desserts & that was the only time Jonathan apologized for a mistake (that was not even his own). He never took accountability for his own mistakes or for taking more than 30 minutes to establish his first contact with us. Instead, he seemed to be almost oblivious to everything. He was always fake smiling & ingenuine in his small talk. I am not sure if it is because he was too intoxicated, but he seemed to have lost the concept of time & appeared a bit lost. As I used to work in restaurants as a student, I know the struggle of most restaurant workers, which is why I typically give a tip of 18% if the service met my minimal standards (reasonable waiting time, politeness, respectful, & no need to fake any smiles or force small talk) & go higher if the service was amazing through the roof. However, this time, my partner & I only gave 15% & that was because the food was SO good. I even jokingly said to my partner; can we tip at least 20% to all staff in the restaurant except our waiter? All in all, food was great, the pork in the griot is the biggest star on the menu. Desserts & drinks are okay. Ambiance is nice although a tad bit too loud for my grandma personality. Service: probably good with the other waiters or if Jonathan worked sobe

We went to Kamuy during Grand Prix weekend with 30,000 people in the plaza next to the restaurant & the staff made us feel like we were the only ones in there. Excellent food, excellent dessert, & great drinks. Try the rum cake!

Nous avions réservé pour un groupe de 8 personnes, c'était l'anniversaire de ma mère. La réservation était à 17h30, mais nous sommes arrivées 15 minutes à l'avance. Nous avons été accueillies chaleureusement, & nos tables étaient déjà prêtes. Super décor, belle ambiance. Le serveur était cordial, & a pris le temps de nous décrire ce qui est sur le menu. Les cocktails ne sont pas dilués, "watered-down"; on y goûte réellement l'alcool. La nourriture était fraîche, le poulet jerk juteux, les bananes plantains croustillantes à l'extérieur & moelleuses à l'intérieur (j'ai dû commander un 2e plateau tellement qu'elles étaient bonnes). Les portions ne sont pas énormes, mais le goût est au rendez-vous. Il ne restait plus de bougies pour mettre sur le dessert de la fêtée, donc le serveur nous a proposé un shooter pour chacune d'entre nous à la place, ce que je considère comme étant une super solution de rechange. Bonus: nous avons pu rencontrer le chef Toussaint, qui est très sympa & me semble très humble ! Somme toute, une belle première expérience chez Kamúy, je recommande.

This was my first time at this restaurant after walking past it for years.

While there, the fire alarm went off four seperate times throughout the course of our meal, which was super disruptive. I would have hoped that the restaurant would have offered a drink or a dessert - something to make up for the repetetive loud noise, but they didn't which I found disappointing. Service was okay, nothing to write home about.

The cocktails, ceviche & the jerk chicken were good, though I found it to be a bit over-priced for what it was. Maybe it was just my dish, but I was looking forward to bold, Carribean flavors - but instead the flavors were very subtle & muted. This was the mildest jerk chicken
I've had. Dependss on your preference, but if you're looking for bold flavor, I would recommend elsewhere.

Entrées (ceviche & salade de melon radis) très ordinaires mais plats principaux pas mal du tout, surtout le poulet à la jerk. Le poisson-passion était pas mal, ainsi que les desserts.

Bon endroit mais un peu de travail à faire sur les entrées.

La serveuse était agréable, malgré le temps d'attente un peu long. La bouffe était bonne tout comme le jus de corossol. J'aurais souhaité que le dessert au chocolat soit plus moelleux. Somme toute, j'y retournerai sans hésitation.

Kamuy was a very pleasant discovery. Menu was creative using little known ingredients to North Americans & covering a number of Caribbean destinations. It was also extremely well executed from the appetizer to the dessert. I had the very best trout I've ever had (including meals eaten worldwide) : skin was crispy & flesh was moist. Outstanding wine menu going from the affordable to high-end unique. Interesting cocktails.

Ce restaurant est excellent ! Le service, la décoration & l'ambiance sont impécables. La nourriture est succulente : l'entrée, le plat principal, le dessert, le cocktail, etc. Vous allez adorer votre moment à Kamuy. En plus, il y a une super belle terrasse !
