OK I know I am spoiled, I am from SF area, I am a cook, a chef, in this food business for 2/3rds of my life. I am telling you that I've been disappointed so many times in Montreal restaurants; I don't even write about the restaurants if I am disappointed that's why I don't have many reviews about Montreal restaurants but here I am now.
Try this one. It's been opened for little more than a week. The view from this restaurant isn't good at all - dreadful construction site you have to see while you are eating - but inside of this restaurant is cool and hip. And of course you have to judge the restaurant with their food right? OMG, ok the salmon burger and Bailey's cream brulee was fantastic. It's not easy to find a "Salmon Burger" that you just bite a one and say WOW so here we are. :)
Have you ever tried MSG over load Poutine in QC and got disgusted?? If you've been disappointed, you should try their Poutine here. I bet that they use real stock for the poutine! Delicious!
Oh well, I have to go there again and try more times to say something very fair but the first impression? Absolutely you should try. Oh Oh Oh! Did I tell you that there is nowhere to go around Place d'art? so try it! :)
