Service was slow at times, however all the staff were very nice. We tried almost every item from the Mtl à Table menu. Salmon tartare lacked flavour, but all other dishes were good. Shrimp tacos were excellent. Brownie & cheesecake were tasty.

Went for happy hour with some friends & all was ok until I found a blob of black mold floating in my water glass. I then realized the entire glass was filthy. I told the bartender who gave me another drink but by that point I was terrified to put my lips on anything. The happy hour prices weren't a good deal either. Overall this place has cool vibes but that dirty glass really put a damper on the entire experience.

On a eu un service incroyable. J'avais marqué dans la réservation qu'on fêtait nos 7 ans d'amour & il nous on réservé une table à part dans un coin tranquille, offert des coupes de champagne 🥂. L'équipe était WoW, serveuse super souriante, & tout l'équipe aussi. Ils nous ont servi & desservi à des vitesse parfaite. Jamais manqué de quoi que se soit. Merci beaucoup.

Nourriture très bonne, mais les 5 étoiles vont au service qui était exceptionnel !! Nous n'avons manqué de rien. Ils travaillent en équipe pour s'assurer que tout se passe parfaitement. Nous soulignions nos 7 ans de vie commune & le restaurant nous a réservé une table à l'écart en plus de nous accueillir avec une coupe! Une belle attention très appréciée.

Happy hour: well drinks, a wine & some beers; but for the well drinks aka speed rails, everyone has to get the same one. I don't know if it is a Canadian thing but it's little rules like this which make this place have a bad rating. Trying to be too cheap. If you hang a big sign that says happy hour then make it as friendly as possible so people come back!

Service was great but food wasn't on par. Chewy calamari, over cooked shrimp & almost all dishes needed seasoning. Our waitress was fantastic. I would recommend Santos as a drink & dance destination only
