Le Fantome is a quiet and small venue that you'd probably miss if you were walking around in Griffintown; it is only recognizable by the triangular logo on the door so you'd probably miss the door or walk into the pub next door as many diners did that night. The interior is dark and decorated with warm candles and beautiful art on the walls, adding to the secrecy and mystery of this place which legend has it, is haunted by the headless apparition of Mary Gallagher who was murdered in 1879.
The restaurant offers a 7 course tasting menu at 65$ and a wine pairing at 50$. My party and I opted for both and can attest that we all loved it! The menu, which changes by season, offers an eclectic array of small portioned dishes which were all skillfully prepared and wonderfully delicious. The plates were a perfect combination of textures and flavours; a creative and playful menu that was perfectly proportioned and well priced. Fun fact: all our dishes were served on dishes made by chef's Jason Morris' mom! The wine pairing was wonderful and really enhanced our dinning experience and I highly recommend it!
The service was flawless; attentive and cordial, the wait staff took care of all the details, carefully explaining all dishes as they were served simultaneously our party of 8. A perfect evening indeed!
