An unforgettable dining experience from start to finish. Every dish was beautifully prepared, but the wine pairing recommendations from our server truly elevated the meal - they were absolutely perfect!
The service was warm, knowledgeable, & made us feel so welcome. I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Montreal.
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.
Great food service, & atmosphere. Small room. Cool people, dressed very casual (staff & guests). GREAT food. The chefs are obviously French trained but this is more creative than typical French food, call it Montréal style.

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.
Magical flavor combinations. This was a divine experience for our last night in Montréal - every dish is delicious but the sunflower seeds prepared risotto style was a standout. Cocktails also made by a genius with some really interesting twists. Will be remembering this meal (chef's choice) for a long time to come.
On attendait beaucoup de ce restaurant & nous avons été déçus, déjà c'est très bruyant mais ça à la limite ce n'est pas tant de leur faute, on est peut-être mal tombé.
Le service était bien, ce qui nous a déçu concerne la nourriture, autant certains plats étaient délicieux & harmonieux (le plat de tournesol un bravo au chef), autant les desserts mais un enfer pas du tout équilibré, entre le mille feuille beaucoup trop sucré & le vacherin avec son huile d'olive qui dégouline en quantité extrême, ça gâche tellement la fin du repas. & dernier point recevoir du pain cramé, c'est très moyen…
Quand on donne un certain standing à son restaurant, on en attend un minimum en retour….
I was expecting a lot from this restaurant but it was just ok. We had 7 plates to share & the only one that stood out was the fish from Gaspésie. Their bread & cultured butter is also very good.
Vachement exceptionnel!
Mega service, atmosphère & excellente expérience gastronomique!
Une belle découverte & très belle adresse! Cette place garde Montreal sur le top des capitales gastronomique!
I had very high expectations, but unfortunately I left feeling quite disappointed.
With the exception of the female sommelier, almost all of the servers came across as indifferent & unwelcoming. At one point, the same dish was served to us twice, which reflected a lack of attention. They also forgot to bring our welcome drink order altogether. I've dined at many restaurants in this price range, & this was the first time I experienced service that felt this inattentive from start to finish.
When we asked about the chef's choice menu, the explanation was so brief & unenthusiastic that it was difficult to understand. It almost felt like,'Just order whatever you want.'
While I can accept that service isn't always perfect, the food & presentation were also disappointing. Almost every plate had noticeable chips around the rim, which is something I wouldn't expect at this level. Aside from the main course, every dish was served cold, & overall I didn't find the food particularly memorable.
The first cucumber dish tasted little more than pieces of cucumber, without much depth or balance. The tartare had a noticeable fishy smell. The sunflower seed risotto was so salty that it was difficult to eat. I finished it because I didn't want to waste the food, but my mouth actually felt numb from the saltiness. It would have been better if the dish had been properly tasted before being served to guests.
The lobster bisque served with the steak was also excessively salty, to the point that it overwhelmed the entire dish & made it difficult to appreciate the other flavors.
Overall, I left feeling that the experience did not justify the price or the expectations associated with the restaurant.
I was overly ambitious & ordered the chef's menu as a solo diner. All the food I had were great (except for the tomatoes but more because I don't really enjoy tomatoes).
Their wine list is mostly natural wine so order cocktails if you are not a big fan of natural wine!
