Reviews paint Tuck Shop as a destination for exceptional food, warm attentive service, and a lively yet intimate atmosphere, with a consistently rotating, seasonal menu that highlights local ingredients and thoughtful pairing of elements; diners praise standout dishes such as hanger steak, pork belly, oysters, octopus, duck duo, and desserts, along with impressive plating and wine knowledge from the staff. The team is repeatedly described as friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, capable of accommodating private functions and offering experiences at the chef's counter or chalet, contributing to a sense of being welcomed into a modern kitchen. A few critiques surface about loud environments and occasional pacing or pricing concerns, and some guests note menu changes that can affect expectations, but these are outweighed by the overall impression of quality, consistency, and value for those celebrating special occasions or seeking a special night out. Overall, it is regarded as a Montreal gem with reliable excellence in both food and service that draws guests back again and again.
A great culinary experience! Our waiter was super fun & made this experience even better. We were in the backroom & it allows you to have a more intimate & cozy meal. The food was amazing & every dish was made to perfection. The portions were perfect. Highly recommend the chocolate espresso cake for dessert! It finishes the meal perfectly. Will be back!

Leaving this review only to say the busboy with the buzzcut who worked Saturday night is exceptional & deserves a raise. The fish & the pasta were also standout
This is our favourite restaurant in the city. We brought my mom here while she was visiting us & had such a great time. The service is attentive without being overbearing & the staff are personable. My mom said it was the best steak she's ever had & has already asked that we come back here on her next trip to Montreal.
Très mauvaise expérience. On était six personnes & à l'unanimité on a été très déçu. Je suis une habituée des restaurants gastronomique & c'est la première fois que je vie ça. Pour le prix, la nourriture n'est pas satisfaisante. La côte de boeuf minuscule, les frites tellement salées qu'on n'a pu les manger. On voulait en commander sans sel mais ils ne sont jamais revenus nous voir après nous avoir servi. La truite ok mais sans plus. Si au moins l'expérience service avait été bien tu as un bon souvenir mais là épouvantable. Pas de bonjour, pas de sourire, vite vite on te sert & on ne revient plus. On était du 1er service alors on sait qu'on doit quitter à une certaine heure. Mais là on c'est fait carrément jeter dehors de façon cavalière. Sans désolé, sans merci…une table à 1500$. Le pire est qu'on a commandé un dernier verre de vin pour terminer la soirée, ils nous servent & nous mettent dehors, on n'a pas eu le temps de le boire, dehors, mais ils on eu le temps de le facturer 18$ le verre. Ouf on va s'en rappeler mais pas pour les bonnes raisons. On en a parlé au gérant mais honnêtement il avait l'air de s'en fouter complètement. A oublier & vite!
Great first experience at Tuck Shop - Amazing food backed by excellent service & atmosphere. Kudos to the chefs & team, will be back for the Pork Belly!
Last night I, along with several friends, had the great pleasure of dining with you. Every aspect of our experience was exemplary & we enjoyed our meals immensely.
On leaving I realised that I had left my shirt/jacket at the table. Liam returned it too me at Honey Martin later in the evening. I cannot thank him enough for his kindness.
I have worked in the service industry my entire life & know that the service we received is not as commonplace as it once was.
Once again I thank you & I look forward to joining you on future visits to Montreal.
Incroyable du début à la fin!
Les plats étaient absolument délicieux & pleins de saveurs. On sent la qualité des ingrédients & le souci du détail dans chaque bouchée. Le service était chaleureux, attentionné, & l'ambiance vraiment agréable. Une expérience wow que je recommande sans hésiter!
An experience that stays with you long after the last bite. Absolute perfection.
Behind every great experience is a great leadership team!
You can feel the love & passion the moment you walk in, it's in the energy, the rhythm, the care.
The attention to detail is everywhere: plates arriving together like a perfectly timed choreography, each one beautifully composed. You want to taste everything on the menu.
The originality, the thoughtfulness, the pairing of ingredients, the assemblage, the visual presentation, each dish feels intentional, crafted, alive. DELICIOUS!
Thank you Johny for your impeccable service, Antoine for the heart you bring to your cooking, & the entire team for creating such a memorable experience. This is an experience to be lived & relived.
Une des meilleures expériences culinaires que j'ai eu le plaisir de vivre: les mets étaient exceptionnels, les vins proposés l'étaient tout autant & que dire du service!

Un super resto! Les plats sont délicieux! Super ambiance ! Vraiment cool de voir les chefs dans la cuisine ;) Bravo à Antoine pour ton professionnalisme 🧑?🍳
This was my first visit & I was extremely impressed. Came out for dinner with my wife. The staff was extremely nice, polite , professional & efficient. The food was unbelievable. I don't usually rave about a place but everything we had was delicious. From the brioche bread. The oysters, tuna crudo & the beet salad as appetizers. Main dish was the duck & the bolognese pasta was incredible. Definitely recommend! My compliments to the chefs & the staff. Keep up the great work !
EXCELLENT! TOUT !!!
Un des meilleurs restos de Montréal. Nous étions 6 & nous sommes unanimes WOW.
Délicieux, portions généreuses, services chaleureux & professionnels !
Une équipe passionnée dans la cuisine! Mention spécial à Antoine qui nous a préparé des entrées exceptionnelles!
Impossible de résister au dessert;) Chaudement recommandé !
Simply amazing ! The food was delicious! Exceptional service as well by Johnny & the staff from the minute we walked in to when we left. The cozy vibe was just right to top it off!
Fantastic experience. The food was excellent. Wonderful ambience. & the service was next level. Would definitely recommend. Will most certainly come again.
This place is so underrated. Portions are generous so you don't end up spending as much as you think. Menu changes weekly. Such high quality service, prep & ingredients.
Been a while since I was that impressed by a kitchen. The flavor profil is amazing, the service was one of the best i had in town & the all vibe was awsome.
