Came here for a reservation with a big group of 17 for a friend's Bach dinner during our trip to…read moreMontreal after doing research and I'm happy to report that it did not disappoint. I wanted to share my experience because their online and in person menu is quite ambiguous and doesn't do justice in explaining their tasting menus. What I really like about this restaurant is that unlike many, they don't make everyone order the same thing. It just requires a minimum of 2 people for the tasting menu and everyone else can order what they please otherwise. The $55 tasting menu is pretty worth it imo. The fact that a drink alone is about $17 as is makes it worth, because it comes with multiple tapas and a drink of choice. The server tried his best to explain everything to us beforehand, but we couldn't help but start to worry during the meal when a few plates came out and we hadn't seen anything for a while. Basically, there are 3 courses, and each course contains multiple items which come out pretty quickly all at once. We started off with lighter apps like edamame, karaage, gyoza, and Japanese pasta. There will be a waiting period before the next course comes out (but don't panic like we did, it doesn't end here). The second course contained tuna poke, a vegetable dish, beef tataki, and takoyaki. There is another waiting period before the third (and heaviest) course comes out. We received pork ribs (a crowd favourite), salmon, and a watermelon salad to end. There were definitely more dishes that I'm forgetting but by the end of it we were all stuffed and pleasantly surprised with the variety we received and unanimously thought it was pretty worth. The restaurant environment is also such a vibe... just a great social setting overall. We had some people in our group that opted out of the tasting menu and decided to share à la carte style, and they also enjoyed their meal and thought it was worth it too. I'd highly recommend this spot as it was a highlight during our trip.

The only issue is that the bar seat area was pretty tight against the seated tables around so whenever someone passes by I usually get my back brushed or sometimes pushed so be aware. The lighting is somewhat dim to keep that sort of cozy vibe. Bartender was friendly and patient with my drink order, which ended up just being a beer. 4/5 SAUMON BONBONS: Salmon well fried but dtill moist. The sweet sauce mixed well and definitely goes well with beer. 3.5/5 Bacon mochi good and super chewy but def will fill u up quick. Coleslaw nice offset and tangy. I liked the first couple chews but then started getting really filled so was experiencing the too much eats before being able try anything else. Overall great place to go with date or group. Its a bit noisy so plan accordingly.

We also ordered the pickled vegetables which was refreshing contrast to the meat. We also ordered stuffed chicken wings and green papaya salad. We ended with the desert of mango with sticky rice. The mango was perfectly ripe and sweet and tart enough to contrast with the coconut milk sweetened sticky rice. We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching the cooks work in the kitchen.
