    Tasteless gnocchi with the beloved micro greens
    Sam P.

    The trying-to-be-hipster atmosphere was a flop for me. The menu selection and execution of the dishes left a lot to be desired. We came on a Friday night after making a reservation for 20:30. The restaurant is pretty small, with some tables and a few spots at the bar. They have an extensive cocktail list but we didn't drink so I can't comment on that other than to say that the options looked good, albeit pricey. The restaurant was very loud and I had to basically scream so my friend across the table could hear me. Nothing on the menu particularly excited me but we ordered the best sounding dishes. We had: Ribbin salad $8: 1.5/5 nothing wrong with it but really not to my taste. The long pieces of vegetables was hard to eat Tuna tataki tacos $18: 3.5/5 not terrible but small portion for the price Fried Chicken sliders $12: 3/5 I enjoyed the taste but there was just too much sauce . The first few bites were good but afterwards it was overwhelming Pasta of the day=gnocchi with pesto $18: 0/5 complete lack of flavour. They topped a warm pasta with micro greens (I assume to complement their hip vibe???). Warm wilted leaves on top of this mediocre pasta made it even more disappointing. Expensive for no reason The service was fine and that's really the only reason I didn't give just 1 star. Everything else pretty much sucked. I would not come back here.

    The place was discovered after we took a walk nearby the canal LaChine. We ordered 7dishes and 2 desserts. The tuna and fried chicken burgers are delicious. Apart of that, we find the service was pretty slow. We waiting till midnight for waitress to come to hand to us our bills. This restaurant is too pricey of its food quality. I probably won't come back again.

    My friend and I tried this place over the holidays, and while our experience was ok, this place is not worth the price. We booked 2 seats at the bar and I was seated right when I walked in. Unfortunately the place is really small and the way tables are set, you cannot get to the bathroom if the waiter is at any of the tables in the back. My sour cherry drink was good, but again very expensive ($14) for one shot, syrup, ice and a candy. We shared a bottle of wine recommended by the bartender and while I don't remember which one it was, it was very good. Food was hit or miss for me. Beef tataki was chunky, full of fat and chewy. Torched salmon was my favourite, sweet, melt in your mouth, tasteful. Arancinis were ok but missing flavor. Foie gras was a tiny portion. Could only taste the fried onions and garlic bread basically. Churros were dried. Probably the worst I've had in my life, served with the tiniest Nutella minijar. Cheesecake crème brûlé was good, but it tasted premade. Overall we have much better options in the city for this type of cuisine.

    $1 oysters during happy hour. From P.EI.

    Great atmosphere with lovely workers. They have happy hour $1 oysters from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 pm with a purchase of a cocktail, wine or beer. I also ordered fried chicken sliders, tuna tataki tacos, tuffle oil French fries. The food was spot on and will definitely come back again! It is in a quite neighbourhood, away from noisy areas. Great restaurant. #mtl #mtlfoodie #montrealfoodie #mtlfood

    I came across a couple of articles during the last few weeks mentioning Mauvais Garçons therefore when my friends proposed to go and try it I was immediately down. The restaurant is located on William St in Griffintown and has this industrial and baroque touch that is really nice. The concept of the restaurant is sharing which is not my favorite, however we ordered 8-10 items from the menu and most of them were really good. I would specially recommend the Mac N Cheese, Lobster Cakes, NY Sirloin and the fried Ferrero Rocher for deserts. The service was really good, one of the owners regularly came to check on us and decided to offer us an item that we chose but did not really enjoy. It was a very good and interesting experience, I will definitely be back as they're planning on adding a Brunch Service.

    This restaurant for me started off so strong! Even though it was dead I figured its OK because it's a Tuesday night and the restaurant was very cute. Plus we got good service and it probably helped that it was just my bf and I and a table of 13 people. I ordered mostly what the waitress recommended except the cauliflower taco because I felt that would not satisfy me. Apparently both tacos especially the cauliflower taco is very good. Maybe when I go back I will try it. So I ordered the MG bloody caesar which consisted of Jameson and pickle juice. It was so good! Perfect mix of spicy and tangy. The waitress informed us that they have $1 oysters so we got 6 of them from Vancouver and 6 from PEI. Then we ordered the fried chicken sliders and a side of fries. I wasn't excited about the chicken and really only got it because of the waitress but damn that was my favorite thing of the night! Imagine if a McDonald's burger and KFC had a baby. The chicken because of the buttermilk was so juicy and it was hot and steaming and crunchy. There were also arugula and pickles in the sliders too but no ones cares about that. Lol It was pretty filling. Honestly I would have been happy with just the sliders and fries. The fries were made with Parmesan, parsley and truffles. My bf said it was the best fries he ever had. I would go so far as to say that but they were good. We also ordered the steak sirloin cut in tiny slices with chimichurri and crispy leeks on top. It was good but it didn't blow my mind. Some pieces were more chewy than others. I liked the fatty pieces the best. We had the mac and cheese with lobster and pork belly. I had high hopes for this one. The waitress recommended it and I like mac and cheese and lobster and pork belly so this dish had to be a winner!! What's not to like?! Sadly it didn't meet my expectations. I wish the lobster and pork belly pieces had been bigger. They really chopped it up so finely! Had there been more lobster and pork belly it might have made a difference. But that was the least of my problems. My problem was the pasta itself. Some people like it al dente ... but me I'm used to having my mac and cheese more cooked. My bf and I felt it was undercooked for our taste. I'm sure some people like it this way though. Also the mac and cheese pasta was long!! It wasn't the typical macaroni pasta. Lastly for dessert we had the deep fried ferrero rocher. There was three chocolates deep fried with vanilla ice cream on the side. To me it tasted like a regular ferrero rocher. You barely taste the batter. It's was good though. Not too sweet. The ice cream had a different texture. I wonder if it was homemade because it was icy and kinda chunky. Haha that's sounds gross but I assure you it wasnt. I hope this place gets more customers because it has a lot of potential! I would come back to try the other things on the menu like the foie gras. Oh and I would definitely go back for the fried chicken!!

    The sliders!

    Great visit to La Banquise! Heard so many great things and this had to be a must visit for us in…read moreMontreal. There was a small 20 minute wait to get in, and they had 2 lines, one for take out and one for dine in. We had. Nice employee come by and check on us to make sure we were in the right line, so really good service right from the start! Once we got in, we ordered the large La Shoot Out (9/10 rating). This thing was loaded and it was all so good. It came with smoked meat, bacon, spicy sausage and pepperoni on top of the traditional cheese curds and gravy. Totally worth jt for $28.60 CAD. Their Blanche beer (8/10) was light and refreshing and balanced out the savory poutine. The ambiance in the restaurant was loud and busy. The tables were a tight fit and every table and seat were filled. There was some decor and throughout the restaurant. Overall, great experience to try authentic Canadian Poutine! Highly recommend!

The line wasn't too busy when we went, we waited about 20 minutes to be seated, which wasn't bad at all. But, we were told it can get long. The restaurant itself is super busy and tables are pretty close to each other. It has a cool and modern vibe to it. There is also outdoor seating. Their menu has over 20 different types of poutine. We decided to get the La shoot-out - this has smoked meat, bacon, spicy sausage, and pepperoni. We shared the large portion and it was massive. I give it a 9/10 - it was delicious! They loaded it with a lot of meat, the fries were soft with some crispiness, the gravy was soooo good, and the cheese curds were yummy. This whole concoction was great! To drink we ordered one of their beers - La Banquise Blanche - nice beer! Service was good, our waitress was nice and helpful. Overall, this a must if you are in Montreal. You can't miss eating poutine.

    Pooh, Marie and I had our New Year's Eve supper here last night…read more We started off with drinks. Pooh and I had their signature Margarita and Marie had their Long Island Iced Tea. Pooh and I loved our drinks but for the price there should have been more alcohol and less ice. Marie wasn't crazy about her drink. She thought it was more like a cherry juice drink We shared the Calamari platter which was piping hot and had a delicious dipping sauce which Marie kept for her fries. For our main meal I ordered their Fried Chicken Salad. Pooh ordered Apollo à la Brasa, and Marie had Lobster Roll with fries and salad. I liked my salad but since it was "fried chicken " I thought the chicken would be hot. It was just warm so the skin wasn't crispy; more loose like sagging skin. Pooh loved his dish but it was a tad salty and greasy. Marie loved everything. Each of us had a Brazilian coffee which was delicious. After we shared an order of their Beignets. These beignets were huge and came with two dipping sauces: caramel and whipped Nutella. They were heavenly Service was fast and friendly and the ambiance was lively - great music too We would definitely return. I will try a different dish.

It's quite busy with the brunch crowd, but not like dinner hours. We had delicious drinks, clearly huge servings of great food, and a nice time just hanging out. We didn't feel rushed and got to just enjoy one another's company. It is tight seating admittedly, and not super comfy, but I'll take it for the yummy food. Will be back for breakfast.

We stayed…read moreat Le Mount Stephen Hotel without doing much research on dining options, assuming we'd just find something nearby. But before even checking in, we had to walk through Bar George ~ and instantly knew we wanted to eat there. We were lucky enough to grab a last-minute reservation, and Julien took a good care of us throughout the evening. His recommendation of the Beef Wellington was spot on (it's already one of our favorite dishes), but this was hands down the best we've ever had. I ordered the lobster risotto, which was excellent with just the right amount of spice. My son had the 10 oz striploin steak with homemade fries (chips), and it was absolutely delicious. I also loved the Canadian touch of coarse salt on the steak, plus the option to choose between Béarnaise or peppercorn sauce. Julien also mentioned their pastry chef placed second in a NY competition, and the desserts absolutely lived up to that reputation. We tried the pineapple and coconut pavlova and the "lick me hazelnut" ~ both beautifully presented and incredibly delicious. We also ordered iced coffee and a latte, and noticed something interesting: this was the second place where we found Canadian coffee to be smooth and mild ~ such a nice change from the often bitter, over-roasted American coffee. Yes, dinner was a bit steep ($300+), but it was worth every penny. Between the rich history, stunning design, outstanding service, and unique cuisine, I would highly recommend Bar George. I would absolutely love to come back!!
