The interior was really fancy - so if for nothing else, you'll get a great photo from visiting this place. The bartender was friendly, but we didn't like any of the cocktails he recommended. Maybe we weren't very good at describing our flavor preferences. The service overall was great, and we even got some free shots for willing to switch seats for other customers. After visited few other speakeasies in Montreal and Quebec City, I can conclude that this was our least favorite stop.

Playground is a very fun place, and excellently run. They are predominantly a casino gaming space,…read morebut they have multiple solid dining spaces including The Rail (a coal fired bistro), Drunken Dragon (Japanese), and a steakhouse. I have been at least four times there. From the gaming perspective, they are the best poker room in all of Canada and perhaps all of North America. Dealers are excellent, food & beverage service is excellent (and the food itself is great in the poker room), and they have good quality tables, seating, and chips. They also have lots of tournaments there. The overall place is kept clean and they're always going around cleaning the gaming machines / slots. There are no live tables here other than poker, but they have electronic roulette, blackjack, and baccarat. I have only eaten at The Rail. Dinner there was very good. The cheesy garlic bread was solid. The bacon Hawaiian pizza was a great pizza. Service there was good, too. Also, Playground has complimentary valet parking.

Boyfriend is a fan of nigiris and theirs were probably his favorite ever. Melt in your mouth, freshest fish. Great dumplings. Tried the raspberry matcha tiramisu for dessert and it was amazing. Looking forward to trying the new Italian resto, but Drunken Dragon will be greatly missed!

Everything that we ordered was better then the next one, the sashimi were like butter. Very nice staff, our waiter was super nice and recommend us a few different things.

The Lachine waterfront is quite notorious, with the beautiful views, the marina and the line of…read morerestaurants/terraces. It does not however have a pub/bar. This is where Bar Trois Devins comes in. Ambiance/decor : Very clean (including bathrooms). It has a heavy, sombre feel, with wooden beams and exposed brick, which is very appropriate. Drinks : What differs them from most bars is that they import beers and stay off the mainstream track. Kudos. Their cocktails aren't decorated like Mardi Gras, but very well mixed and taste good. Service : I was actually impressed on how fast our waiter served us, considering the bar was completely full. (to both bring our orders and when we were ready to check out). PRO : Location. Many enjoy the restaurants on that strip, yet feel that their night is cut short due to regular restaurant hours. It's right next to (walking distance) all the restaurants and is open late. CON : Due to the fact that it's one of the only bars in the area, it can sometimes attract a clientele that may not be right for you. If you are with a small or larger group, this would go unnoticed however. NOTE : This could be an interesting place to rent (as a venue). Reason of 3* rating : I was not blown away, considering Montreal is a bar&restaurant capital, but nothing disappointed me or anyone at my table.

I would give it 4.5 only because of the 2 obnoxiously loud gentlemen when we were there (it's not…read morethe businesses fault but the clientele at a place does affect our enjoyment of it). Stopped by around 10 on a Wednesday night for a post meal pint. The place itself is very much pleasing to the eye. Reasonably priced draft with craft beers and a lot of imports you won't find most places (from Sam Addams to Bass). Scotch / whiskey collection behind the bar was nothing to joke about and the glass wall cellar was quite impressive. As for the staff, they were relaxed enough to make me believe it might have been the owner / manager and he was really top notch. He kept a good humor going with us throughout our stay without being too intrusive. Would definitely stop by to try their other beers if I find myself back in the area.

I was angry and tried to bring it to the attention of the waitress but she didn't seem to understand how I can be bothered by noise. I guess being a pub yet also a full restaurant, makes it OK to have YET ANOTHER place that promotes or is indifferent to "NOISE CULTURE" . ONE CANNOT EVEN EAT WITHOUT HAVING THEIR BRAINS AND EARS BLOWN OFF BY IDIOTS YELLING and laughing at the top of their lungs. We left and will never return again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The food is reasonably good, but since people come to ANY restaurant to talk, it is sickening that some customers and the staff don't seem to give a damn about HOW loud they scream, laugh and talk, and whether or not this excessive noise bothers some clients. This is a typical trash "culture" example of how the morons in pubs and other restaurants perceive "having fun"! The more noise the better.

We had a wonderful cappuccino to finish the lovely night.

Basilico Italien Express was a random stop over one of my fellow foodies suggested in DDO. I was…read moresurprised how modern and eclectic this resto bar was. From the outside it seemed nothing more than a family joint, walking in the lights were dimmed, modern seating and decor with a great R&B playlist dropping beats in the background. Mike & Josh were great at hosting. You will have a good laugh from the cocktail menu. To name a few: morning wood, 1 inch punch, grow a pear. These cocktails were original and worth the starting price at around 14$ a drink . I had the 1 inch punch that is is a bourbon pineapple infused drink, I enjoyed the presentation and smoothness of it. We also had dessert- the olive oil strawberry trifle cake and Nutella bomboloni were my favourite. Desserts are around 9$ and up . The menus revolve seasonally. A really cute place for hangouts or date nights. Highly recommend!

I ate at…read morethe Brossard location a few weeks ago and wasn't too impressed, however this time it was a real game changer. The restaurant was pretty empty at that time, I prefer eating early since I dislike crowds and enjoy a more quiet atmosphere. If you don't have a reservation you can easily find a table before 6PM. We were greeted right away, service was prompt and friendly. Our group tried two types of appetizers, the fried calamari and kentucky style fried chicken. Both were delicious, fresh, left us wanting more. I found the portion was pretty small compared to the price, for $19 the calamari was just enough for 2 people, not meant to share with a whole table unless you only get 1 or 2 bites each. Our main meals were 3 different types of steak, one opted for a large rib eye, a new york strip and filet mignon, and one person had the salmon. We upgraded sides to the cheesy mashed potatoes and sweet potato fries. In all we were very impressed with the food, the flavor, cook and portions for the main meals were excellent. Steaks were cooked to perfection and well seasoned - this was entirely different compared to our last experience at the Lucille's in Dix 30. The servers took time to refill our water and clean the tables in between meals, change our cultery too. I could tell there was a particular attention to us. I think it makes a huge difference when you are basically the only table in the restaurant at that time. This a great place to enjoy quality food if you like seafood or steak in particular - the atmosphere is modern, there's lots of place to sit both indoor or outdoors and the service was top notch. I would come back for a special occasion, I felt very satisfied with the whole experience.
