My uncle wanted to treat my mother and I for our birthdays and personally chose this restaurant. The waiter was a kid and super rude, snarky and not helpful at all. Makes you feel like a peasant who should be so grateful for being allowed entry at his food establishment. If you have food intolerances don't go because you will be made to feel like you shouldn't go there and should know better. Food and presentation is nice but overpriced compared to other MTL restos. I have traveled all over Europe and Asia and never had such a service experience as this. Really makes the whole experience unpleasant and won't recommend or return.

I had a reservation for tonight. Unfortunately, two of the four guests have the flu. I called this morning to cancel and noticed that they charged me $160 on my credit card. This is a purely illegal action. This is not a no show but a cancellation. Restaurant with bad business practices to avoid. A complaint was lodged with the Consumer Protection Office. I can understand the impacts of no shows but for a cancellation at the start of the day, I find it abusive to act like this.

Terrible service. I will never go to the column again, quite simply because I do not accept racism towards me or anyone else. Treat everyone fairly and with respect. We were there to have a good time, not confrontation or arrogance on your part.

Pleasant place to visit for the atmosphere just needs a few minor kinks to sort out. This establishment seems to be high quality but there were some notable things to mention.
We ordered the cerf and the beef with vegetables, both couldn’t be cut with the high quality knives they provided so we left some pieces behind. The meat was quite tough and had limited flavour which was disappointing as there are only 8 options on the menu. Service was slow (we ordered 4 items) and we had plastic bottles of sparkling water.

La nourriture était succulente. Le service était excellent. Petit bémol, je ne m'attendais pas à attendre si longtemps entre chaque plat. Il ne faut pas être pressé et il faut être en bonne compagnie. Ça vaut le déplacement.

I had the chance to come and eat at this restaurant for a friend's birthday. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Chef Marc-Antoine amazed us with these dishes that were as beautiful as they were delicious. The finesse and attention to detail was remarkable. We will be back very soon!
Tried this place based on a recommendation. Was not disappointed. I tried the 5 course taste testing menu. Every dish was amazing and beautifully presented. Food was fresh and bursting with flavour.
Also a large selection of wines and whiskeys, and the service 5 star!
Highly recommend this place, great place for a first date if you want to impress.

There are just so many better places in Montreal to spend your money. The food here was so mid for some of the highest prices we have seen since moving to the city. I would not normally go into such detail but for over $300 (from the a la carte, thank god we didn’t do the tasting), I think people should know what they are getting.
The service was ok, but not great. The constant upselling and near condescending way that the wine and menu items were described to us came off as quite pretentious; and frankly, laughable once we actually tried the food. Bless him, our server tried but unfortunately it was just overall awkward.
The restaurant itself had no atmosphere. It’s just white walls with some generic abstract canvases and the music ranged from Charlotte Cardin, to background jazz, to nothing at all.
Both of my partners dishes (the sweetbreads and duck) had no seasoning, and I would wager his duck was left in the sous vide too long as it had a near mushy texture. My starter (tuna) tasted like straight up lime juice, the fish was not fresh tasting, the pieces were not even cut all the way through, and it was missing some elements (which I didn’t notice until someone next to us ordered the same thing and it looked different). My main (the steak) was ok, but the ratatouille it came with was so overcooked it was all one colour of mush. For $58 I expect much better.
The best thing we had was the wine, of which they do have a large selection, and the bread ($5 charge) was decent but certainly not mind blowing.
The final kicker was when we paid and the server told us to choose one of the tip percentages on the bill (starting at 20%).
*Disclaimer that we had a treater gift card which covered a lot of the bill so we were significantly less pissed and we ended up just laughing it off and leaving, but we will not go back and do not recommend.

This was probably the most fine dining experience I've ever had, celebrated my PhD acceptance here. Tried a fat pigeon, it was great.

Had dinner Aug 31 with some of our married children ? The food was wonderful and Luka our server made it fun and memorable. Take your time and enjoy….
