This place is very popular among the young crowd (20s to 30s) so it's recommended to make reservations. This restaurant has a nice & simple decor. Even though the waiters are dressed in a very casual way, service is wonderful. They know their stuff well & are very friendly. Foodwise, I was a bit disappointed. They put a lot of care in the presentation. However, the taste isn't there. Most of the appetizers were a bit too acidic & their main dishes were so-so. Nothing exceptional.

10/10 from start to finish! Chef Shewchuk has an awesome team & everything we got was delicious. We did the tasting menu & highly recommend it. The bar tender recommended us each amazing wine pairings by the glass to go along with what was coming & we left full & happy.

The host Jack & the staff took care of us & we thoroughly enjoyed our date night out. Kudos to everyone at Limbo! Will be back for sure.

Limbo, which has taken over the former Marconi location, came highly recommended-& I was curious to see what they would do with a space I already had a soft spot for. Having been to Salle Climatisé a few times, I had a pretty good idea of what to expect, & Limbo delivered a similar style while feeling just a step above. The food was excellent across the board, with quality ingredients, thoughtful presentation, & dishes that were genuinely enjoyable without feeling overdone. The leek starter was delicious. The tartare was also very good, & the lamb may honestly be the best I've ever had. The room itself is busy, crowded, & noisy, so it's not really the place for a quiet romantic dinner. But if you're looking for great food in a lively setting, it's definitely worth booking-just make your reservation well in advance.

Je recommande de réserver parce que c'était plein le samedi soir. Restaurant découvert grâce à la liste Air Canada des meilleures nouveaux restaurants de 2025 (ouvert en mars!).

Nous étions un groupe de 5, & la serveuse Mathilde était super gentille & attentive. On se sentait entre de bonnes mains, elle avait vraiment une belle énergie :)

Les photos représentent (pas en ordre) :
- Oursin de Rimouski
- Pain de petit épautre
- Parfait de foie de volaille
- Prunes Reine-Claude
- Raddichio
- Thon cru
- Aubergine
- Foie gras
- Canard
- Plat à l'homard
- Truite

Tout était excellent! Mes préférés personnels sont : le parfait de vollaille (miam avec le pain), le raddichio, le thon cru, le fois gras, le plat à l'homard & la truite.

C'était une belle découverte :)
