So my flight to St. John's got cancelled due to weather and I find myself stuck in Montreal. Air Canada messed up my bags and there's no assistance or compensation from AC as it was "out of their control". Not too happy, but this is about Restaurant Volares and not AC. I'm staying at the Crown Plaza by the airport with only the Boston Pizza in walking distance.
I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel restaurant. The staff was quick and attentive. The French onion soup and house salad were just ok - salad was fresh and crispy. My main was the Veal Marsala - the highlite of the meal. The veal medallions were thick and perfectly cooked and seasoned. The Marsala sauce could do with a bit more wine but otherwise, it was a surprisingly delicious dish. I upgraded the potatoes for the pasta - nothing to write home about but not bad either!
If you find yourself in a pinch, I'd recommend this place. read more
