Came here last week for a Yelp! event with Risa and the crew and had a grand time slurping on oysters and noshing on dumplings.
VERY happy to know that there is a $1 oyster night on Wednesdays somewhere in Montreal to fulfill my oyster cravings. Old Montreal and the uber-cooler-than-thou crowd is normally not my scene. You just get the feeling there are a lot of beautiful people here who all seem to have a lot of cash but no one really works. It's either that, or older techy guys executives who work in the Old Montreal gaming industry. My understanding is that this places becomes a really-hard-to-get-into club after 11:30pm so I guess if that's your scene, you best bet is to come here for cocktails, dinner and then just stay on.
That's the scene and vibe. Now the food.
Oysters were fresh and fantastic, briny and plump, just the way they should be. I tried both the pork dumplings and ordered the lobster dumplings. Again, fantastic. Cocktails were just as great.
I don't see myself coming here for the club part, but I'll definitely come here during the winter for oysters and drinks. For the summer, I want the same but outdoors and given that Flyjin is in some warren-like, hard to find basement, I'll definitely pass in the summer.
