Wonderful new place in NDG- really a step above the rest, and Slang will attract people who live downtown. The ambiance is modern and chic. The bar is vert well equipped and serves up wonderful infused drinks- here's another plus- Slang serves filtered and carbonated water, with a conscience- it's on tap.
We loved the octopus and the dumplings as starters, excellent choices. The catch of the day was also perfectly balanced. Slang also serves it's own own fresh baked roll with churned butter- nice touch.
The staff here is very attentive, without being pushy or sticky. We also greatly enjoyed looking into the kitchen at the young, creative and professional staff. This team is tight- and they know what they're doing. The restaurant was full, but there was no panic or sense of disorganization. Management is experienced.
The price- 2 starters (very good sized portions) a salad and a main, with two cocktails and a bottle of wine, under 200$-
This team has struck the perfect balance for this neighbourhood- we're thankful. Bravo!
