After seeing countless photos of beautifully prepared sushi platters, we decided to check out Park during a weekend trip to Montreal. I wish we took the time to read reviews prior to booking our reservations.
Service was terrible. I would have expected better service from a Swiss Chalet, let alone a "high end restaurant". I understand preparing aesthetically pleasing dishes take some time but we waited 30-45min between every dish. I looked around the restaurant and noticed that everyone was also waiting around for their food so it certainly wasn't a one-off. When the server was clearing our table he accidentally spilled sauce all over the table and dripping onto my designer handbag. I couldn't blame him as mistakes happen. He promptly cleaned the table with a cloth and when I asked for another to try to wipe off my bag, he handed to me same dirty rag!!! I could only stare at him in shock. How dense can someone be that they offer up a wet, dirty, stained rag to clean an expensive handbag?!?!
The food was pricey and underwhelming. The fish on the sushi was thinly sliced and overall inferior to that of Toronto restaurants. The one redeeming quality was that I was full (after spending $200 for 2 people). I read that other diners left hungry...the key is to order the bibimbap which was very filling ;)
After the poor service and disappointing meal, I am really nervous to visit any other Antonio Park establishments.
PS. Check out the "menu" section of the photos to read a response from Chef Park to one diner.....it really demonstrates how Park does not understand customer service at all.
