The tomato soup with arugula pistou was fabulous. The 9e burger with carmelized onions was very good, and perfectly cooked -- although the charred outside of the burger did not appeal. The service (Destiny) was outstanding! What a treat!

Went for a team dinner and the food was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend all their seafood plates. Most of the table got octopus which was amazing. For my main I got the fresh catch which was also very good, the only down side is that their side veggies are not flavored at all. But everything else was great!

Absolutely delicious food. Wonderful service other than a delay in getting our entreés due to a large group that was also there. Will definitely be returning next time we’re in Montreal.
