Première fois que j'essayais ce restaurant là avec une amie. Nous sommes venu essayer l'endroit un mardi soir (donc pas d'achalange), arrivé sur place il y avait un photoshoot autour du bar, jusque là rien d'énervant, pour réaliser que le photoshoot prenait toute la place sur le service. Il y avais 2 serveuses dont une qui faisait les drinks pour le photoshoot ce qui fait en sorte qu'une seule serveuse est disponible (la nôtre). Le service était TRÈS long voir trop long. La serveuse ne s'occupait pas de nous, trop souvent je l'ai vu jaser au bar, entre les tables, au passe... Même apres un certain temps le passe commençait a cumulé les assiettes & les serveuses etaient en train de parler avec le barman jusqu'à ce qu'elles se fassent avertir. Le menu fût trompeur, mon amie a commander les pogos au fromage: lorsqu'arriver sur la table, à notre grande suprise, ça n'avait aucunement l'air de Pogo: c'etait des CARRÉS d'halloumi frit🤷?♀? (méchant catfish). Lorsque l'heure du dessert est venu, nous avons commander des cafés.... j'ai demandé le mien avec du lait... On m'a apportez un seul lait... Lorsque j'en ai demander plus... Cela a mis un temps fou car la serveuse c'est arrêter a mi-chemin pour jaser a nouveau. Lorsqu'elle est revenue elle m'a apportez un seul lait de plus pour moi & mon amie... lorsqu'on demande plus de lait, juste apporte un bol avec des crèmettes de lait... On aurait dit qu'ils etaient sur un budget... Ils ont mis tout leur budget & leur attention dans le photoshoot mais le service client franchement... je ne reviendrai pas.
Nourriture délicieuse mais piètre service 😔😔
Lunch for two at Vertigo was great. Our server introduced himself & was very helpful. We started with delicious drinks. We placed our orders fairly quickly. The food came next & we were ready to eat. Unfortunately the pepper pasta I had ordered was too spicy & I wasn't enjoying the taste. Our server offered me a new meal & I ordered the burger. I liked the burger a lot.

First time eating at Vertigo. Great food, vibe & ambiance. The recommendation from our waiter was amazing. We had grilled octopus as entree. My husband had flank steak & I tried the halibut fish. Very good choices! Prices were reasonable.
The cocktail drinks were just as good, a bit on the pricey side.
Would recommend for great night out for drinks or with a group event.
Nous étions un groupe de 5 personnes, la majorité des éléments commandés était bien ; Drinks, entrées, plats.. mise à part mon plat principale. La cuisson de ma viande n'a pas été réussi à deux reprises. Ayant demandé une cuisson mi-saignante, j'ai reçu du bien-cuit alors j'ai demander à qu'ils me la change & à la 2e reprise, l'intérieur était litéralement cru, saignante.
Only there for a drink at the bar. It took close to 20 minutes to get service at the bar when we saw at least 3 employees working but were totally ignored us. Drink was ok.
The waitress was not checking on us. We were waiting a long time to get drinks, food & dessert. We came in at 7;30 & we only got served for drinks almost 45mins later. Also the same for the food. If we had some spot checks would have been preferable.
We went to that area on Friday night. It was so crowded, we had to park in premier moisson parking lot & walk back.
I liked the food. The drinks were ok.
A good place to spend time catching up with friends.

The place is so lovely & the vibe is so cozy & romantic. 💘
Although the service could be better. We got a table in 2 minutes which isn't bad. But until we get served, took at least 15 mins. Two of us ordered a small tartare, which the serveuse asked if they'd like salad or fries, so we thought it came with it. But no, they charged them for a big plate for +15$ each. 😳 & when we mentioned to the serveuse, she said it's because you ordered fries with it even though we said a small plate.
Thé drinks were good but full of ice 🧊 (so a pitcher is really just 3 cups including the ice)
All the plates were bit delicious to be honest, Sud Ouest tartare was good though, but the poke tartare & the thun one was really not it. I'd rate them 0/10
Overall, decent experience, wouldn't really recommend though. Better options around the area
Personnellement je suis un adepte finis des restaurents du centropolis, & je dois vous admettre. MARILYNN tout simplement incroyable, son drink au pamplemousse me fait rêver, avec un zeste correct tho. A1 Léonie très cool aussi. Lappy trop cock.
Bon…premièrement commander 4 drink nous a pris presque 1h les recevoir. Deuxièmement, un des 4 drink que nous avions commandé était un amaretto sour, le pire que j'ai goûté de ma vie… juste à la couleur du cocktail je savais que c'était pas un amaretto sour, j'ai demandé de refaire le drink pour que quelque minutes après on me ramène la même affaire & me dit notre recette est différente, suis désolé mais si vous utilisez un autre ingrédients qui fait changer la totalité du goût & la couleur n'appeler pas ça un amaretto sour. Troisièmement, après ma sage dû amaretto sour j'ai finalement juste decider de prendre un sprite… un sprite qui a pris 35min arrivée. Alors comme premier expérience je suis très déçu & personnellement je ne conseille pas… mais merci à notre serveuse qui était très compréhensive, nous t'avons vue demander à plusieurs reprises nos cocktails était ou alors merci.

Dinner for our 20th anniversary. Overall experience was ok not exceptional. Had reservations at 7:30 & called last minute to have a table earlier & manager took care of us. Ambiance & decor was nice. Food was good. Appetizers are too small for my taste. Drinks were good. Braised beef cheek was a hit...WOW!!! Service was very slow. Between appetizers & main dish we waited a while. Our waiter was not the greatest to be honest. He looked lost & out of sight when we needed him. First of all when you are serving your drinks don't just drop them over us on the edge of the table & you should serve ladies always first. Spilled all kinds of sauce from our shrimp appetizer on me & in my glass on the table. Not the best outcome for our first visit & special occasion.
