| - I'm torn about this one. A friend picked it, it was perfect location for the group that was meeting. It is a beautiful sexy dim room and the service was so kind and quick and helpful. We arrived a good 40 minutes before our reservation and they didn't bat an eye, just welcomed the early birds and quickly brought us drinks.
When I looked at the prices on the food menu I was kind of furious, these prices are jumped up even for Westmount and it bothers me that people pay for it. I was hungry but could not bring myself to pay $30-$50 for pasta or a taco platter. We had a dozen oysters at over $2 an oyster and there was shell in 2 of the 4 I tried. I really don't mind paying for an amazing meal at all, but this bugged me.
I ended up ordering off the apps menu, ordered the fish tacos, and here I was pleasantly surprised. The tacos came out quick and they were fat, filling and fabulous.
The vibe was surprisingly cosy and friendly, we ended up staying late, laughing with the staff and drinking delicious cava. I'm hesitating between 3 and 4 stars, but the oysters are really stuck in my craw so I'm docking a star, but if I had the right occasion I'd be happy to come back and give it another shot.
