Limbo is an exceptional night out!
Indulge in a delectable evening crafted by talented chefs & dedicated staff.
A heartfelt thank you to Christian, our server & guide, for making the evening truly special.
We appreciate the extra bread service; every drop of sauce was savored.
A secret haven for Martini enthusiasts seeking a dirty, filthy experience.🤫

Excellent time dining at Limbo this past Sunday. The restaurant is gorgeous & the food is fantastic. While we were there it relatively quiet, which just enhanced our experience. Noted to go out to restaurants on Sundays more often! Our favourite things we had were the squash soup with an oursin sauce ontop, as well as the duck dish which had perfectly cooked duck slices & a duck crepe with orange. It's hard to pick an favourite though because everything was super inventive, fun to eat, & high quality. John & Jack were extremely kind & professional & explained the various dishes, made great recommendations & provided excellent service. Thank you!

What a great night I had today at Limbo! We were seated at the bar & had amazing service. Every dish we had was delightful: super flavourful & most importantly fresh. We took some bread to dip the sauces - a must. We ended with the strawberries & pepper yoghurt - super fresh. We unexpectedly walked in with a last min reservation & will definitely be back. Thank YOU for such a great night

Nous sommes tombé sur ce restaurant en deuxième choix & quel chance nous avons eu. La nourriture est très bonne, produits de qualité, cuisson impeccable (les pétoncles étaient parfaitement cuites). Tous les plats sont bon, il n'y a pas eu de moins. Je recommande de prendre le pain pour goûter les sauces. Le service est aussi très bon, personnel à l'écoute & de très bon conseil. Je recommande vivement cette perle!

The service is good & a nice conception. The food was good but felt like something was missing. Every appetizer dish was pretty plain.. when ordered heirloom tomatoes was expecting some kind of amazing sauce to pair it with.
The main dishes were fantastic. Both fish & pork were outstanding

I have dined at Limbo three times now & have tried a wide variety of dishes & wines. Each time I have visited, my experience has been better & better. The food is amazing, delicious sauces, local ingredients, knowledgeable & attentive staff & great ambiance. If there is one must try spot in Montreal, it's Limbo!

Had the pleasure of dining at Limbo during its very first week-there was a palpable sense of nervous energy & excitement.

1) We started with the beef tartare, topped with trout roe, surrounded by a ring of gelée. We also ordered the house-made sourdough bread & beurre composé: perfectly chewy & flavourful.

2) This was followed by a reinterpretation of poireaux vinaigrette, with leeks layered over perfectly cooked trout confit.

3) Next came the off-menu special: house-cured ham topped with mustard greens, peppery & perfectly dressed just enough to balance the richness of the pork.

3) Then a clean, elegant plate of halibut served with seasonal white asparagus & a light, buttery sauce.

4) For dessert, a showstopper: a meringue'floating island' in a pool of tonka bean-infused crème anglaise, topped with fragrant poached rhubarb.

Overall, 10/10 for a first week, & we are excited to go back.
