What an amazing experience we had! A group of us, 9 people, went to Tbsp as part of an event. We enjoyed a meal of grilled octopus, pasta with mussels, & a delicious red wine. As well as the tasty food & elegant presentation of the plates, the decor was also beautiful. Then, right after our meal, we met the new chef, Raphael. He passed by our table & told us a bit about the restaurant & the food he had served us.
Beautiful place with delicious food & good ambiance. We went there for a birthday & the service was impeccable. We tried the experience menu because we could not decide between all the delicious options & every plate was very tasty. We had the ceviche, octopus, beef tartare, steak & focaccia. The drinks were also very good & we appreciated that the place was not too loud so we could have a conversation. Overall 10/10! Would definitely go back.
This hotel is in the W, it's beautiful, but the service was so slow, & the place was pretty empty. Our food was cold, & we had to ask for it to be warmed up & one of the other guest on my table ordered a dish because there was an error on hers & by the time we were all done eating we were still waiting on hers to come out. I'm staying at the hotel so I figured it would be convenient, but I don't think I'd recommend coming here for dinner. The drinks were very good.

Good restaurant located between Old Montreal & downtown Montreal. It has a very calm atmosphere, low noise level, & beautiful décor. The service was excellent.
The only thing I must mention is that the food was always served cold. I visited three times: once for breakfast, once for lunch, & once for dinner, & on all three occasions the dishes were excessively cold. A cold steak, where even the fat was already cold, was not a good experience. This might explain why the restaurant itself always felt cold. Perhaps this is something they should take into consideration.
Aside from that, the service was excellent. The place is very nice, & I would recommend it for couples, as it is quite quiet & romantic.
Was staying at the W & decided to stop in for some breakfast after check out. The restaurant is very beautiful. The coffee was delicious & my meal (Norwegian bagel) was quite good (basic, but good). Prices are a bit on the high side I would say, but overall was happy & would recommend.
We loved this experience. Our server Jamie was awesome. Like most awesome people, he needs a clone. The earth might not sustain it, but two Jamie's would make it a better place. So the service was lovely & the food was beautiful. The selection of cheese from Quebec was sooo good. Everything else was equally delicious.
The only thing that didn't fit the picture was when the table was cleared & I was offered to have the leftovers packed to go.
All the good & carefully offered food was just thrown into a box indiscriminately- the perfectly cooked meat, including fat I trimmed, the special cheese, the fries… with greasy fingerprints on the box to boot. A real doggie bag!
Suggest if you have something delicious to enjoy later that you ask to pack it yourself.
We had a fantastic dinner here! The food was beautifully presented, staff was very knowledgeable about the menu, the atmosphere is fun with unique art & lights. It was a relaxing, comfortable restaurant & I hope to be back again. Thanks for taking such great care of us, Jamie!
