  • The service here is impeccable, the food is cooked with precision, the plating is beautiful, sadly the taste is sorely lacking and it is unimaginative. If we factor in service and everything I would still only give it 3 stars, but 2 stars it is. The service by itself it 5 stars!!! We went for the MTL a table special and it was 69$ for 3 service menu. I had the striped bass sashimi, the duck breast with confit on the side and the apple clafoutis. The sashimi was ok, it did have some sorbet on it and pieces of kumkquat which added some nice contrast, but it wasn't anything amazing. The duck breast was a disaster in my opinion, the breast was well cooked and placed on a bourguignon sauce. The confit was tucked under a whole lump of cheese infused mashed potato along with some mushrooms. The duck confit was salty but underneath the mashed potatoes which were also salty made it too salty, on top of that the bourguignon sauce was super salty, I mean it was way way oversalted to the point that I didn't even want to touch it. It was a combination of salty on top of super salty, it was not a good dish to eat. Is this really Toqué? I drank so much water, the waiter kept coming back to refill me, I very much appreciated that actually, it's rare to go to a place where your water is always filled no matter how much you drink, I know I don't have to hold back on drinking water here, how sad is it that this is the high point at your restaurant? The dessert was in the same vein, sour upon sour, with a spoon of ice cream on the side but that wasn't enough to balance. The clafoutis was sour, paired with plum mousse which was sour and topped with a cranberry which was sour... This was the worse meal I've had this year. I'm not fuming, just very disappointed. The staff is amazing, they are ghosts who appear when you need them, and the service is polite but warm and cozy if you instigate conversation, and they politely disappear when it's over they really don't overstay their welcome...we had a great time nonetheless no thanks to the food. When the amuse-bouche and the mignardise are better than the regular courses it doesn't say much about the restaurant. I came here 9 years ago, and it was just ok back then so I didn't bother to write a review. but now it's just unforgivable for a place of this stature to be so lame food wise.
