    Pavlova

    I remember choosing to wait before going to that restaurant when it first opened because of how popular it was.... And I really missed out, because what an awesome experience! The interior and service were on point! I went there on a Sunday morning alone, and was seated pretty quickly, the staff was extremely friendly. I ordered their salmon Benedict from the brunch menu as well as the pavlova from the regular menu, both dishes were really good! I'll definitely be back!

    One of the most interesting neighborhoods in Montreal is Griffintown. But some of the nice restaurants are often so noisy that you can't even hear what your friends are saying. And I am not kidding. Perles et Paddock is, on contrary, the place for an intimate dinner or just a pleasant one where you can have a serious or not so serious discussion. But Perles is much more than a nice restaurant. The dishes I had were nothing but a pleasant surprise from the mix of cauliflower heads to the fish and the dessert. Check it out. If I had to make one comment though it would be about the wine list, which doesn't include any half bottles, and the choice of wines by the glass would gain to be larger. But at the time of COVID, how could we blame a restaurant for its short wine list?

    The first thing that strikes you is the beautiful decor, amazing ambiance and atmosphere. This place is very busy and if you don't have a reservation, you're looking at quite a bit of waiting time. We were warmly greeted by a hostess who told us we would have to wait a bit for a table, but we got lucky and got a table in about 20 minutes. The menu got us a bit confused as we made our selection with their online menu before we arrived and while we waited at the door only to be told that their menu had changed and that they hadn't updated their menu in 2 months. We now had new choices from their paper menu but also the daily black board choices. I was hesitant but chose the raw seal since i had never tried such meat. It was good but the portions were not big enough for that price tag. My friend who isn't a big fan of raw food had very few options as everything is pretty much in tartar or tartar form. That day she only had the option of a pork belly or pasta. The cocktails were good and the oysters were nice. The dessert menu didn't have a lot of option unfortunately and i was disappointed by the meringue cake. I will definitely give this restaurant another try. Hopefully there will be different options of "cooked" meals and desserts. The service was very warm and professional. Our waitress really made this experience great.

    Brunch at Perles et Paddock. It's such a beautiful space with bright sky light and lush greens. ⁣ The brunch set menu has split pea soup, mimosa/cocktail, salad, meat pie with foie gras/blood sausage/wheat pancake, grandma pudding with ice cream, and maple taffy on ice!⁣ Like a true sugar shack experience.

    They say to always give a restaurant 4 chances before writing a critic. I've been 3 times and here was my overall experience. Prior to this day, I attended a foodie event which allowed us to try their entire menu. Perles et Paddock definitely knew how to blow my mind. But unfortunately my third visit didn't quite reflect what I had experienced in the past. Beautifully designed restaurant- very OC/LA vibe but if you are looking for the perfect fried chicken, this ain't the place. The chicken and waffle was looking rather thin and flimsy- really missing that wow factor and really not what I had experienced before. The one I had previously was bigger and this one was kinda looking a little sad ($26). You're better off going to Popeyes or Mon Ami (Korean fried chicken. Go to the Somerled location). We also ordered the steak and egg chimichurri which unfortunately did not reflect its price point ($22). The steak wasn't tender. The dish that stole my heart out of all three was the sweet potato pancakes. Very savoury but I would recommend to add more caramelized pecans. ($16) Perles et Paddock is beautiful place, great for quick bite and cocktails with A+ service. The service that I received from A to Z was outstanding. But don't expect to be mind blown for their food. Great for cocktails though!

    To have the restaurant a 5/5 especially during this time of Covid, for excellent and attentive service, orignal food and delicious cocktails. Our server Vincent was a star!! Best service I've had since Covid, attentive, kind, chatty and took good care of us and it made our evening. The cheese and charcuterie is a most, considering that the charcuterie are made I house. Let me tell you the prosciutto was tender. The main dishes to the braised leeks and the duck tartare was light and flavourful. We ordered a rancid I, but they were ok, sauce was missing a little depth. That said, ambiance and decor is incredibly inviting and the spacing is adequate. Very clean and cozy. Highly recommend for a girls night or night out with your significant other :)

    It is a Sunday brunch and this place is packed! The decor is bright, organic and green... makes you feel good on a sunny summer Sunday. The food is delicious and fresh, and coffees are well crafted. I rarely comment on their serving dish ware, but they were so nice that I wish I can find them on sale for me to bring home. Great place to hang out and feel good!

    This restaurant is beautiful, I can't believe it used to be a garage. It now looks like a beer garden. Regarding the food, it was very good, we had the origami of hamachi, which was good, but not the greatest. Then I had the magret de canard, which was amazing. I highly recommend it. My boyfriend had the joue de boeuf, which I didn't particularly like, it felt like it had been slightly overcooked in the sauce. For dessert, I got the chocolate dessert and he had the dessert du jour, which is a seasonal special: maple themed dessert. If you have the chance to get the maple themed dessert, please take it, as it was amazing. The portions are medium sizes. The restaurant wasn't overly booked, so it was great as it wasn't too loud so we don't have to scream to talk to the other people. You can really have a nice dinner. The staff was really nice, however, it took close to 20 minutes for them to take our initial order, that was the only negative thing I have to say regarding my experience at Perles & Paddock. Afterward, the service was great. Beside the only initial 20 minutes wait, this restaurant is great. I highly recommend this place.

    Walked in late on Saturday night as I was craving one of their cocktails and we got to chat with the owner when we noticed the different menu. This guy listens to his clients! They took the tasting menu away and beefed up their bar menu to offer more generous portions for the same price. We ordered oysters (lucky lime, yum) as well as a tempura cauliflower entree which we easily shared. The flavour was spot on, perfectly cooked and the crunchy tempura batter on the outside, with a cauliflower purée, and marinated cauliflower stems, was just plain delicious! The service was as spot on as the first time even though this place was packed at this late hour. Why? Because their kitchen closes near 1 am offering great food way after most restaurants have closed shop. As always, the cocktails were just crazy good! As for their wine selection, thanks to the knowledgeable sommelier, you will surely find an amazing wine if the innovative cocktails aren't your thing.

    Last time when I came, I gave five stars to Perles et Paddock. Yesterday, I went for dinner, sadly I had to remove a star. We were placed in the middle of the restaurant. For the longest no one would come check on us. It was difficult to get any attention from any staff because they would go behind the bar to the kitchen. Either we go after them or we had to yell after them. Water was poured after 20 minutes of our arrival. Then we have been sitting so long, about 35 minutes, but they never brought us the menu, and didn't ask us if we wanted to drink anything. We were getting a little frustrated. Then one of the host was annoying. He kept coming to take pics with the Birthday girl with a drink for her and with her balloons. We keep asking for the menu. I wasn't sure what to make of his attitude. He wasn't being serious. He brought another customer to another the table with menu. I almost raised my voice for the menu. It wasn't fair we were here way before them, and still no menu. Finally he brought it because of my raised voice. But with only one drink menu for 6 people. Honestly, I wanted to remove two or three stars because of this doofus. I wanted slap him hard sadly, but I kept my composure. When we wanted to ask him questions about the menu; he walks away and tells us the service girl will be with us shortly. An hour later, finally our waitress Frederick arrived. Because of her, I kept an extra star. She was simply nice, helpful with the recommendations. Afterwards, the service was improved thankfully. Our drinks and food were excellent as usual. I had old fashioned sour pisco (strong but soothing). My dish was the sea gallop. Every single bite was bursting and delicious flavors. In the end, our evening was saved by our waitress. I hope I don't see ever that annoying person in that restaurant when I go next time.

    This is a beautiful place with great service! The decor is absolutely fabulous. No "main meals" served at this restaurant, all dishes are appetizer/tapas style. The waiter suggested 3-4 dishes per person. If you are 4 people you can take the entire menu and share all plates. Haddock was bland. Shrimp were good. Leak plate is not a good choice. We all liked the spaetzle. Drinks and wine are nice. Problem is that some of us left hungry! Be prepared to spend a significant amount. My favourite part was the decor. Enjoy!

    Perles et Paddock is a true pearl in the city. This location is unbelievably beautiful and stunning. The building looks like a fire station when you first set your eyes upon it but walking in the white walls and greenery lights up with the open sky roof. Simply stunning ! I came here with a bunch of foodies so I was fortunate to try many of their brunch items. The avocado toast (4/5) has to be one of my favourites with smoked salmon, poached egg that was perfectly cooked; the chocolate beignets (3/5) were overly sweet but soft and moist, gazpacho (2/5) it's not a phenomenal dish to begin with - there aren't many ways to spice up cold tomato soup; the sweet potato pancakes (3/5) tasted more like French toast with no hint of sweet potatoes but the fresh strawberries and candied pecans were a nice touch- kind of dry without syrup; Matabele shrimp roll (1/5) -overpriced for the amount you get -nothing mesmerizing about this dish, shakshuka (5/5) one of the best I've had -perfectly seasoned ; surf & turf (3/5) comes with a fish cake that was heavy on dil, eggs holandaise and bacon; the steak egg & chimichuri (5/5) and the chicken & waffles with honey comb and foie gras were both excellent - I just didn't have space for them; king oyster omelette (4/5) -great presentation and flavours, the sausage was good ; boudin (2/5) a blood sausage dish -this is an acquired taste I find - the presentation was spot on but the sausage itself is heavy on lemon juice. The prices are very reasonable 7-26$ and all dishes can be shared for 2. The cocktails are just as beautiful - I had a beer cocktail which was included in our special. This place reminds me of summer house resto in Chicago, which is a huge compliment. Looking forward to coming back on my own to relax and enjoy this beautiful venue.

They curate whatever drinks based on your preferences, including sweetness, fruitiness, etc. They ask you about your preferences, and then based on that they have a designated drink ready. It is not in a traditional menu where you order it which makes it all the more fun! The vibes were immaculate and very clean, the service was fairly nice even though they were busy.

I'm a fan of cocktail bars, and after reading up on this spot I made it my intention to check it out. It just so happened that it was a short walk from my hotel, so we decided to check it out one night before heading to dinner. The Cloakroom is a speakeasy, nestled behind a hidden door in a men's clothing shop. In the line of being a speakeasy, the space is small - there are only 24 seats but since we got there right at opening we were seated right away. The space is dark and intimate, with the bottles of liquor lit up behind the bar providing an attractive focal point. One of the more unique features of the bar is that there's no menu; we told our server the types of liquors we wanted along with the flavor notes and they crafted a cocktail based on our tastes. We ultimately had two rounds; my first drink was vodka-based and fruity, while I went with something gin-based and dryer. Both were very good - there's little fanfare with presentation; the bartenders let the drinks speak for themselves. Service was great; due to the setup, each patron is given extra attention which really highlighted the experience. Overall, I really enjoyed my time at The Cloakroom Bar. This was definitely a unique experience with excellent curated drinks. I would definitely return the next time I'm in Montreal.
