We had a wonderful dinner here our first night in Montreal. And you can see the pride and love they have for Canadian cuisine and local produce.
Yes, it's hard to find but they were kind enough to call us a few hours before our rezzie to let us know exactly where to go (behind the big church in what seems like a very residential neighborhood).
The tasting menu was superb but what brought it over the top for us were the thoughtful wine pairings. Their young enthusiastic sommelier will go over each of her choices and why she chose it. For example, the sturgeon with the "orange" wine was genius.
No, this is not a place for picky, everything-must-be-on-the-side eaters. You must be prepared to eat things like muscles with yogurt (delish by the way) or sea snails with pickles. If you are a true foodie, you will appreciate the truly innovative combinations. And the space is lovely, all industrial with an open kitchen.
We're thrilled we came here and the cheese stuffed squash blossom is why I exist. Have it in place of the (delicious) dessert and it will change your mind about how to conclude a fine dinner.
