Tuck Shop est largement reconnu comme une destination incontournable à Montréal, fréquemment saluée pour son menu saisonnier de haute qualité et son service attentionné. De nombreux clients soulignent la constance remarquable de la cuisine, citant régulièrement des plats comme la bavette frites, les huîtres fraîches et les créations de fruits de mer, le tout dans une atmosphère chaleureuse qui allie raffinement professionnel et convivialité sans prétention. Bien que la majorité des avis décrivent une expérience exceptionnelle marquée par un travail d'équipe efficace et une hospitalité sincère, certains visiteurs notent que l'ambiance animée peut devenir assez bruyante aux heures de pointe.

They heat up a previously cooked steak using a microwave. The shrimp dish was grounded shrimp instead of real pieces of shrimp. The fried mushroom was just disgusting. I read the reviews & decided to go there, now I am convinced the reviews are fake. Terrible food. Never going back.
Really nice atmosphere & the service is the kind where you actually feel taken care of. The scallop was great & the hanger steak with fries is honestly one of the best I've had in Montreal. The duck was a bit of a miss for me but everything else was really solid. Would go back.
Tuck Shop is the restaurant equivalent of that one friend who never tries too hard but always shows up looking incredible. Tucked on Notre-Dame West in Saint-Henri, it has the rare quality of being a genuinely great restaurant that doesn't seem to know - or care - that it's a genuinely great restaurant. No dress code, no attitude, no one asking you how the first few bites are going. Just good people, good wine, & good food doing its thing.
The steak frites is the kind of dish that makes you briefly angry at every other steak frites you've ever had. Perfectly cooked, no theatrics, no unnecessary foam or micro-herb situation - just meat & fries that have clearly been thought about by people who take the simple stuff seriously. This is the spot where industry people go on their nights off, & if that's not the highest possible endorsement a restaurant can receive, I don't know what is.
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.
Steak was melt in your mouth. Sauce au poivre not too overpowering & just enough flavour, & the fries wowowowowow - more please. Enjoyed the fried mushrooms, really liked the scallop crudo, & mussel toast was nice. Finished with the coconut cream pie; even though I didn't want to eat more, I finished the whole thing & couldn't breathe on the way home from my gluttonous behavior. Service was excellent & very personable. Lovely night. Thank you.
We had & amazing experience at this restaurant, starting from the reservations weeks ago to by boydfriend's birthday dinner last night! If I could give them 6 stars I would !
I researched a lot of restaurants for my boyfriend's birthday because he loves steak & I don't know that much about it. I ended up going with Tuck Shop because I saw many good reviews on Reddit regarding their Hanger Steak. Since I'd never been, I dm'd their instagram account to ask some questions about the menu & ways to make the evening special for my boyfriend.
From the get-go, the whole team was amazing & kind & professional. I first asked about getting a menu printed without the prices, but they ended up making us a custom Tasting Menu that was to DIE FOR! Their attention to detail was incredible, with adding my boyfriend's name to the menu & sitting us in a corner. They put us at a 4 ppl table, so we had plenty of space, it felt very cozy & they put a bunch of flowers on the table. It was raining (even though we're in august) & I was worried about our comfort, but they were very nice & reassured me & put us right beneath a heater.
The service was wonderful, plates were explained to us, the food was SO GOOD. Everything melted in your mouths, it felt very gastronomic & home-made. The plates were gorgeous, the different tastes went very well together & the chef came out & presented us the dessert. The servers were all so kind & interested in us, making the evening so memorable. The vibe was STUNNING!! There were cute little outisde lights that made it romantic too. They gave us all three of their desserts & added a little candle for my boyfriend to blow as well as a complimentary after-dinner-liqueur. The owner & the whole team clearly worked together to make this night remarkable & extraordinary for us :)
I can't stop gushing about this night & our experience, they definetely gained a new & loyal fan & free advertising to all of my friends & family haha
Fresh local ingredients presented with a delightful twist by the chef. Always seasonal & fresh. The local fried mushrooms with ranch sauce were excellent as was the Gaspe tuna as appetizers. Fish & steak for mains were prepared perfectly.
Amazing food & vibe. Get the fried shrooms, salad, beef tartare, & steak+fries I would like to thank Jonathan, Luis, & Robyn for the excellent service. We were welcomed with friendliness the moment we stepped in the establishment!
