    Whole Striped Bass
    Todd C.

    My search for VERY high quality sushi in Montreal is finally over! You might think it's odd that a Greek seafood place would expand their menu to Japanese, unless of course you've had the larger tasting menu that usually features several tasty sashimi's. Ikanos sources their fish as a global importer, selecting the best the world has to offer: Canadian, French, Japanese, etc. The execution is fantastic, with each dish having unique flavours and textures. I particularly enjoyed the Nigiri, each piece was fresh and vibrant, topped with flavourful morsels that complimented the dish beautifully. Wow! For the sake of constructive feedback, I would go a little lighter on the rice, but that's me... If you love sushi, check out the new offerings from Ikanos!

    Taking the time to savor wine , bubbles and the beginning of a good evening with friends . let me know where you like to go to have a great drink . I had the pleasure to celebrate the 5th year of @ikanos_mtl they had an excellent service and great appetizers that can only tease you. (so good) I must say the celebration was phenomenal. . .for my wine followers, they have a great choices of good wine. They do their own import. that evening was showing of an excellent greek wine Skouras. I liked it. .

    A 4.5 points from yelpers of course get me to the last dinner meal I am in Montreal. As I got the menu, I realized half of the menu is grilled items. I got 9 fresh oysters, saumon, scallop with foie gras for the appetizer, and a grilled seafood platter for main course. The grilled seafood platter is enough for 2 people. By the way, It is almost all grilled items are enough for 2 people. The prawns, scallop, octopus are all fresh, but I personally don't like too much grilled seafood at one dinner. A bit too plain because it only has one flavour. The oysters are fresh, but the other two appetizers are nothing too special. If a person likes grilled seafood or grilled meats, I do recommend him/her to give a try, but for me, it might not be the first priority choice for me.

    Ikanos' new peach inspired menu

    I was invited to try Ikanos' new peach inspired menu launch this week. What an amazing celebration of the peach! I've always liked peaches but I didn't realize how versatile this fruit is until I tried this menu. It paired perfectly with savoury and sweet foods. The fish ceviche bite was bright with citrus and I loved the sweetness coming through from the peaches. They also served a peach mimosa style drink to begin the evening which was yummy and refreshing. The peach gazpacho was smooth and sweet and paired very well with the matane shrimp. The only thing that would have brought it to another level for me is if some spice would've been added. Next up was a delicious pan seared fish served with seasonal veggies and grilled peaches. Amazinnggg flavours. The duck course that came next was wasted on me as I do not enjoy duck but presentation was great and others like it. My fave was unsurprisingly dessert! The dark chocolate and sea salt bar with peach sorbet was too delicious - I cleaned my plate! Overall, great experience in this beautiful location.

    We did not particularly like this restaurant. The menu was hard to decipher and we felt it was quite limited. We had the hummus plate but not enough pitas to finish. We had the whole fish for two but we found it small for 2 people. Sad Ed went here on our last night. We ordered dessert and the waiter forgot so we skipped it.

    Perfectly seared cod , but i was not impressed by the trimmings. The herbs overpowered the freshness of the mango salsa. I did not really taste the mango... The avocado purée was too thick in the mouth. It didnt blend in well with the fish. Also , i would have preferred a mousse or a lighter avocado purée to maximize the flavor of the fish.

    Technically we flew to Montreal for dinner, but as it turns out this brunch was the star of the show (ok, both meals were epic, but this place surprised me). My fiance was in charge of planning the trip and found this spot online had good reviews and oysters, so he was sold, and made a reservation for 11am on the Sunday. Turns out it was only their second Sunday doing their brunch menu, so I was pleased to be ahead of the crowd lol. We ended up wandering in at 10:30am right when they opened and were seated immediately, since we were the first customers of the day. Others did arrive soon after 11am, but it never got that packed, I assume because brunch is new for them. Two things to note first - the staff was amazing, super friendly, helpful, appeared at all the right times, and the ambiance was great. Definitely my decor style! For food, we opted to start with a dozen OYSTERS. They were featuring 3 different kinds (I think all from PEI) so we did 4 of each. I found the shucking to be great, and all 3 different kinds were delicious. Next up, we split a Half Sized GREEK SALAD. A nice serving size, and very authentic with no lettuce. Could have used a splash of vinegar or something for tang, but overall it was nice. We didn't finish it as our entrees arrived soon after. He opted for the PORCHETTA dish and I went with SHRIMP dish. His porchetta was perfectly cooked and kept raving about the dish, from the broccoli rabe to the poached egg which was also perfectly cooked. My SHRIMP dish was awesome as well, and thankfully the sausage wasn't overwhelming and really completed the dish. The dipping bread on the side was perfect for slopping up all of the goodness here!! Wow, totally forgot about drinks lol. He did the Ouzo/Coffee drink which was like a milkshake and he loved. I did the Grand Marnier drink with Orange Juice and Egg Whites, which didn't wow me at first, but I ended up loving towards the end. A must do for Brunch if you're in the area!

    Wow this place was amazing! The food and the service was just incredible! I loved the fried zucchini which tasted so fresh and crispy. We shared, for two, a mix sea food platter and it was more than enough to be quite full. The seafood was so well done and so tasty it just melted in your mouth. The experience was quite nice as the waiters were really attentive to our needs.

    I'd been to Ikanos a few years ago when it first opened and thought it was good but not great. Had a chance to revisit it when we went recently for a group work dinner, and they have really hit their stride. Because we were a big group, we took the tasting menu. Started off with thin slices of fried zucchini , lightly battered and seasoned with dill and salt. So good. So, so good. I think I could have eaten a big bowl of those and called it dinner. There were also some eggplant and roasted pepper spreads with pita, but I was all about the zucchini. Next up was a seafood platter, with grilled and fried calamari (fried better), perfectly grilled scallops and shrimps. All good. The star of the night was the third course, the fish. Mediterranean Sea bass, expertly filleted and served whole. Probably the best fish I've had in a restaurant in years. Cooked to perfection, it was buttery, flavourful and rich. Served with a simple Greek salad which complemented it well. A perfect example of great a meal can be with simple high quality quality ingredients expertly prepared. Final course was traditional Greek loukoumades, perfectly fine, but anything was going to be anticlimactic after that fish. Plus I was too full to eat more than a few. The cocktail I had was ok, but a little sweet for my taste. The wine list is on the shorter side, and features several Greek wines. We had a very nice Greek white, and a French red. Decor is chic and relaxed. Service was well paced and attentive, and the manager came over more than once to check on our group.

    Came to this place because it was the closest place to where we were walking at the time and my wife is Greek...so why not right? Was a bit nervous at first since it was practically empty on a Sunday night but let me tell you it was the best meal I've had in awhile. The atmosphere is perfect, the food plentiful and flavorful, the service was second to none and we had the best time. They cook with a Josper oven and use the same oven for multiple things so the flavors are continuous and complex. Do go here!

    Went to Ikanos for MTL à table. They offered a 41$ menu. To be honest, for some weird reason, I wasn't excited at first when I read the menu. But when I tasted the food, it was a whole different story! So many flavours all at once. Everything is prepared so delicately.. whatever is on your plate, the flavour is there, full and delicate at the same time. And when you mix the different elements of the plate in a same bite, just wow! Everything was well prepared (the veal was melting in my mouth, the fish was perfectly cooked,...). It was a great experience!

Our waitress introduced herself right away and took our cocktail orders. When she delivered our drinks, she explained how the chef's tasting menu worked and left us for a few minutes to decide which option we would like. We chose 'tier 3' which included a pasta course and extra caviar. Everything we had was amazing, from the seafood tower, to the beef carpaccio, to the hanger steak. It was so much food, we thought we would all burst by the end. The waitress was outstanding and was completely engaged with us throughout the evening. She added so much to our experience. We opted for the wine pairings and she gave us 3 wines as well as an amaro at the end. All in all, it was a meal to remember with a price tag of just under $2,000. Well worth it. We highly recommend this for a special occasion dinner.

Pics and reviews looked great, so we made plans to dine here during our penultimate night in the city. Barroco is located in Old Montreal, right on Rue Saint-Paul. The exterior has really charming curb appeal, and upon entry we were greeted by the same. This isn't a large restaurant, arranged with tables and a few booths throughout the space and a bar on the back wall that serves as a focal point. The vibes were on - the restaurant was tastefully decorated with a mix of old-fashioned fixtures, stone walls, and earth tones. The restaurant was quite lively - the vibes were on. Their drink menu is quite creative; we actually started our evening at the bar while we were waiting for our table and the bartender made some great suggestions - both cocktails I had were really good. The food menu is mostly French inspired; it wasn't extensive but they had a good variety of creative dishes. We decided on two starters - the brioche and the octopus salad. The brioche was fine, it came as one roll with a side of seasoned butter. It was a little on the dry side, and the butter wasn't very flavorful. The octopus salad was much better; the octopus was sliced and arranged on top of a ratatouille which provided a good complement of flavors and textures. For my main I got the OG braised beef. The beef was almost pot-roast style, seasoned with maple and aged balsamic sauce and paired with truffled celery root purée. This was delicious - the beef was super tender, and the sauce provided great flavor. The puree was an awesome side - the entire trip was super comforting and familiar while also being new and interesting. We decided to get two desserts - the madeleines and the olive oil cake. The former were baked fresh and came with a side of chocolate pudding and salted caramel, while the latter came with whipped cream and coached pears. Both were good, but I preferred the madeleines; the warm sponge paired with the chocolate and caramel was a great finisher to the meal. Service was great - everyone from the host to the bartender to our waiter made us feel welcome; they definitely elevated the experience.
