| - Came here for late night drinks and apps after traveling to Montreal from NY. The place has a pretty cool ambience-- the back of the bar is lit up, there's high top seating, a huge disco ball, music, and upstairs seating. Seems like the perfect place to come for a light bite or a fun date. We came on a Tuesday night and it was pretty packed.
Our waitress was very, very nice. She had a lot of suggestions when it came to our drink orders-- I ordered a cosmopolitan and she informed me that she had a previous customer from the US order this drink and was unhappy with it. Apparently the make the cosmos different in Canada, so she directed me to other drinks. I got the Melontini, which was so good (fresh watermelon juice and vodka). My mom got the Santa Maria, which was recommended by our waitress and wasn't on the menu-- she loved it. My dad got a Moscow mule and it was very good. For apps we got the beef cheek pouting and the ceviche. Both were very good. We wanted the oysters (which were selling for a dollar that night) but they were sold out when we got there.
My only complaint was that, when we ordered our second round of drinks, the bar took SOOOO LONG to make them. We probably waited 15-20 minutes for them, and the table next to us were complaining about the slow service as well. In the meantime, we saw the bartenders taking shots with friends instead of making the drinks. Besides that, I recommend coming here for a late night bite or drinks. Their food and drink menus are extensive and the waitress was lovely.
