Toqué!

5.0

During our spring trip to Montreal, we stayed at the Humaniti Hotel, just a short walk from Toqué!, & made a reservation well in advance in anticipation of this meal. It was an experience we truly looked forward to-& it did not disappoint.

The dining room is elegant & refined, & the service was attentive & thoughtful throughout the evening. We basically ordered most of the courses on the menu, 4 first courses & 4 main courses & 4 desserts. All four of us had an excellent dining experience, with consistently high praise for every course. I would recommend the quail dish, & beef filet was very good, too.

From the beautiful presentation to the precise & well-balanced seasoning, the level of craftsmanship was clear. I must say that for the quality of the food & overall experience, the pricing felt very reasonable.

We would absolutely look forward to returning on a future visit to Montreal.

Never get full in toque order. A la carte is like tasting size. But the service is good & wine list is nice. The lamb cut is not recommended at all as the fat on top not crispy with chewy ligament.

The staff were very attentive, even from the message I sent when making my reservation. They also greeted me with a smile & courtesy after I arrived. I chose the seven-course tasting menu. All the dishes were delicately & beautifully presented & delicious. The waitress explained each dish clearly, allowing me to enjoy the meal. I usually pair my wine with wine, but unfortunately I had drunk too much the night before & couldn't enjoy the wine. As I was leaving, they even made a special Japanese menu rist for me as a gift, since I'm Japanese. I really appreciated their thoughtfulness. I'd definitely like to come back & dine here again when I'm in Montreal. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I've tried many establishments similar to this one, & unfortunately, this one was quite underwhelming.

We opted for the 7-course meal, but most dishes seemed randomly thrown together & not well thought out. There was no harmony of flavors, & most were bland. The only good dishes were the dessert & the steak main course-2 out of 7. The other 5 were extremely disappointing, & since they were all served at the beginning of the meal, it made for a depressing start.

The service was okay. Everyone was nice & friendly. Other than being nice, there wasn't anything special about the service. We had mentioned in our reservation that it was for a special anniversary celebration, but nothing was done to acknowledge it-not even a simple'congratulations on your anniversary.'

The ambiance was fine, & the drinks were good.

Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant. It is far too expensive for what they offer. The price would be justifiable if the food met the standards of other restaurants of this type, but here it seriously lacked flavor, ingredient quality, & creativity.

& before the owner resplies, yes, disatisfaction was mentionned to the staff members but nothing was done, just a simple'sorry it didn't meet your expectations'. Once again, nothing special about the service.

Montreal staple, tasting menu was well thought out for the most part on the day we dined. Was a little disappointed to be served tuna twice in seven dishes- hence the 4 stars, especially considering the cost.
Wind pairing is highly recommended, well described & explained. Very knowledgeable.
Service was impeccable.

Points forts :
Nous avons reçu un excellent service. On nous a chaleureusement accueillis, pris soin de notre manteau & même apporté un support pour ma sacoche. Chaque détail est pris en compte là-bas : la disposition des ustensiles, le pain présenté dans l'assiette, etc. Ce sont de belles attentions qu'on voit rarement.

Notre serveur était très gentil & nous n'avons jamais manqué de rien. Nous avons eu droit à un cocktail gratuit grâce à une promotion du mois d'avril, & c'était d'ailleurs ce que j'ai préféré - il était délicieux!

Points faibles :
L'endroit est très propre, mais pas au goût du jour. On n'ose même pas échapper une miette sur la table! Ils semblent vouloir attirer une clientèle plus jeune, mais selon moi, ce n'est pas l'endroit idéal pour cela.

Côté nourriture, mon conjoint a adoré son plat (celui à la truite), & la présentation était superbe - exactement ce qu'on attend d'un tel restaurant. De mon côté, mon entrée (le boeuf roulé) était très ordinaire.

Pour le plat principal, nous avons tous les deux pris l'agneau, mais nous n'avons pas aimé. C'était décevant, surtout pour un plat à ce prix.

Nous sommes contents d'avoir pu l'essayer grâce à un certificat cadeau, mais malheureusement, ce n'est pas un endroit où nous retournerons ni que nous recommanderons.

My husband & I had dinner here last week & it was fabulous. We hadn't been here in quite a number of years & it is nice to see that the quality, food, & service are all still top notch. We had a lovely seat by the window & our waitress also added to the evening. She was professional, personable, & prompt in taking great care of us. The drinks were great & the food was all delicious. I HIGHLY recommend a beautiful dining experience here!

Gorgous presentation in every dish, immaculate service by every single person serving (& there were many!), tables are spaced far enough away from each other that you can enjoy a conversation without feeling like you are on display, food melted in the mouth, stomachs (& souls) felt good/healthy for the night. If you want to be in the middle of a full restaurant, I would recommend a reservation a bit later... around 8 or 9 pm.

Very good tasting menu & wine pairing on an enjoyable night out at Toque. The first couple dishes were seafood forward with two well matched white wine pairings (dry German Riesling & Austrian Chardonnay). The next course was a transition from sea to land, which was a nice touch, as such the wine also moved from white to Rose, nice attention to detail. Moving onto red wines, the dishes evolved to land based ultimately finished with a rich foie gras, short rib, & loin paired with a Bordeaux from Pauillac. Continuing the trend of transitioning we were given the option of sweet or savory before the final dessert, my wife & I chose different, which was a nice option. All in all was a very attentive staff, great explanations from the Sommeliers, & good quality food. Would definitely recommend Toque as a quality option for food & wine pairing in Montreal.

My partner & I have visited Toqué three times over the past couple years, & it seemed high time to leave a review. All three experiences have been excellent. We get the tasting menu every time & are never disappointed. I would highly recommend adding the wine pairing to get the full Toqué experience. Some highlights of this establishment: - The tasting menu varies seasonally, showcasing different local ingredients. - Each dish is flavourful & beautifully arranged, with every ingredient--no matter how simple--playing a role. The focus is on discovering & appreciating high-quality local foods. They do this so well that my partner & I have found that we even enjoy ingredients we normally would not. I don't usually care for raw tomatoes, but I would eat this season's fresh tomato salad by the bowl, given the opportunity. - The staff are knowledgeable & attentive. A big part of the experience here is the staff's presentation of the dishes (& wines, if applicable) as they are brought to your table. They pay close attention to you without being obtrusive, making the pacing of the meal feel perfect as they bring out the next dish not long after you finish one. If you get up from the table, a staff member seems to magically appear to fold your napkin & pull your chair out for you as you return. - The staff are bilingual & can provide excellent service in either English or French. - They have been wonderfully accommodating of my dietary restrictions (more on that separately) & never made me feel like an inconvenience. For prospective diners, here are some points to help shape your expectations: - Interaction with staff is a big part of the tasting menu experience. If this isn't your cup of tea, the tasting menu may not be the best choice. - The focus here is on quality, not luxury or decadence. Toqué does not try to impress its guests with exotic or flashy ingredients. Expect local fruits, vegetables, & proteins, presented elegantly, with natural flavours. You will likely not be served a plate swimming in truffle oil & gold leaf. You may, however, eat the best parsnip purée of your life. - The price of the meal reflects the quality of both the food & the service. For most of us, eating here is a rare treat, but it is a treat indeed, & I have never regretted a dime spent at Toqué. All in all, Toqué has offered my family & me a delightful experience time & time again, & I cannot recommend them highly enough. My only regret is that I have not yet had the opportunity to enjoy each of their seasonal menus.
