Food was great but service & kitchen were very slow. It took 2 hours to get drinks, appetizers & mains. Took 10 minutes to get a coke.

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. The food was some of the best I've had in a long time, & the service made it even better. Kevin behind the bar was fantastic - friendly, attentive, & made incredible drinks. Mateo was equally amazing as our host/server & made us feel welcomed the entire night. You can tell the staff genuinely cares about giving people a great experience. This place deserves way more recognition & popularity than it gets. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for outstanding food, drinks, & service.

Kevin, I'll see you at my wedding. #Witness

Pretty great restaurant! Staff was really friendly & attentive! I appreciated that the drinks were a bit strong, & the food was well seasoned! Especially the mushroom dish which was a 100/10!

Very elite experience. Food was nicely cooked or like they say cooked to perfection. Lamb was a group favorite. For me the ambience made an impact. The drinks were also really done well & many options were available.Only regret is it not accepting the credit card we had. Made it a little embarrassing after the whole valentine day dinner with a big group.

My partner & I came here for the MTL à Table 2025 edition & I wasn't disappointed. The food was good & the service was great. We were super full as the portion was quite big & that was definitely worth $50/person. I love the atmosphere & the decoration were quirky but in a speakeasy-ish cute vibe. The only downside was the drink; I think I got a very average Nestea taste-like iced tea while I ordered a special mocktail.
Also:
-Paid-parking on the street
-Super cute menu printed on vinyl disks
-Tricky speakeasy entrance from the street, you gotta know how to get in

Nice time for our final visit of the evening. Had a few drinks (all delicious) & 2 rounds of bruschetta & focaccia which hit the spot! The speakeasy is closed in December I guess (not sure when else) so we just sat at the ba

The actual speakeasy wasn't open. The vibe at the restaurant portion is fine but nothing noteworthy. Great drinks though
