J'ai adooooooooré ma 1re soirée au Santos.

Nous étions un groupe de 10 pour l'anniversaire d'une amie & étions tenus de prendre le menu de groupe.

Réticentes au début, nous avons finalement éte comblées. La nourriture proposée était fraiche, délicieuse mais surtout abondante.

Les employés (que ce soit l'hôtesse, les serveuses, les barmen/maid) sont agréables, polis, beaux. La clientèle est distinguée. Le DJ du samedi soir est MALADE!

J'ai adoré ma soirée & y reviendrai assurément!

The stars are for the hostess because we were late for our reservation & she made her best to find a way to accommodate us.

Other than that i was disappointed with the food, felt botched & it took one hour to receive it.
Music is good.

It was horrible. The waiter dictated what we would eat & charged way too much. We ended up separating the bill & he charged again too much tip for the amount we each paid including the tip. He was way to confident just to get a good tip. & overall he got too much tip from what service we had. We left hungry . & went to subway & 3 brasseries. Never again.!! Plus he gave us something we did not like & charged us anyway. When we asked for the manager . The manager apparently didn't want to deal with it.. overall never never never ever.

Friendly reception, extremely slow (snail's pace) wait-service; unappetizing, insipid, watery cocktails that take forever to arrive from a bar with 2 bartenders in a small restaurant that's less than half full & the food was not good e.g. the sauce on the tuna crudo was overwhelming yet unremarkable & the bone marrow was under-seasoned & under-done.

Bel endroit avec un band de blues très bon !
Par contre le service était mauvais (nourriture qui arrive tard, le serveur n'était pas intéressé à nous servir, pas de conseils dans le choix des cocktails, trop attendu pour commander un 2eme verre).
& La nourriture était juste correcte.
Avec l'offre de restos/bars à Montréal, je n'y retournerai pas. Dommage.
