“I love coming to eat at this café. Everything is great, food is delicious and decorations are so nice!! It’s such a vibe. I come often and it has never failed me. If you want cute Instagram pictures and enjoy the food this is your place.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lou's in Pointe-Claire, and my party and I had a fantastic experience! The restaurant has a pretty cute vibe, with a dark wood interior and cozy seating. I had the beef tartare as an appetizer and it was delicious - perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. For my main dish, I tried the Pasta Genovese, and it was one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had. The noodles were al dente, and the braised short rib was melt-in-your-mouth tender. For dessert, I'm pretty sure I got a bread pudding, but whatever it was, it was heavenly... omg. I also got three martinis/cocktails, all were great! I will be coming back soon :)“
“Une expérience hors du commun. Des cocktails super bien expliqués par Emilie extrêmement bien exécutés. Les vins exceptionnels pour l’accord met-vin. Les plats sont d’une recherche et d’une originalité hors pair. David le chef et l’équipe de cuisine ne laisse aucun détail au hasard. Les éperlans frits, absolument pas ce dont je m’attendais. La sauce qui venait avec un délice. Les pétoncles avec les citrons confis fondaient dans la bouche. Les couteaux de mer parfaitement garnis super frais parmi les meilleurs que j’ai mangé dans le monde. La lote fondait dans la bouche sur sa sauce citronné et la petite tranche de truffe parfaitement dosé pour ne pas « overwhelm » le gout délicat du poisson. A ce moment nous étions déjà plein mais chaque assiette était tellement délicieuse que nous avons continué. Et la les pates aux bourgots font leur entré. OMG c’etaint tellement différents et gouteux avec la meilleure texture. On ajouté par gourmandise des frites et les rapini aux anchois blancs. Un mélange improbable mais parfait. Emilie et David ne pouvaient pas nous laisser aller sans le pudding chalumeur / crème brulée. Et les macarons. J’écris ceci et je salive encore. Nous nous sommes promis de retourner et de faire découvrir ce grand restaurant à tous nos amis. Je termine par dire que le service était attentionné « to the T ». Nous n’avons reçu aucune assiette sans que la précédente ne soit pas débarrassée. Dorothée avec son magnifique sourire n’était jamais bien loin. Exceptionnel restaurant. A trés trés trés bientôt Gang. Good Job.“
“All around a good spot for food and drinks. We were with a pretty big party (over 20 people) and had a nice section of the restaurant to ourselves. Service was nice and efficient with great wine selections. Will definitely revisit to try out the cocktail list!“
“Vraiment une belle place pour déguster ! Excellent service et la personne qui nous a service connaît bien les sortes et ces subtilités!! Étions arrivé pour dégustation de 4 verres et avons terminés par plusieurs belles découvertes. !! On y reviendra c'est certain! Même une stout était vraiment bonne et ce n'est pas dans nos goûts habituellement !“
“spent an evening there with friends. First time there. Very pleasantly happy. The atmosphere was so wonderful. Not too loud. The food is great (healthy, but not too much - a bit of everything). Staff is quick and attentive, but not overbearing. So lovely - will hopefully go again.“
“Everything about this place is so vibey, perfect for a night out with friends, drink & draw events, dance nights with Dj, great drinks. Only thing is that burgers are actually small sliders, so it’s giving finger food and snacks which makes sense cuz it’s a bar. But overall highly recommended this “
“This place offers a fantastic environment for larger groups, with music and ambiance that are engaging without being overly loud. They're wonderfully accommodating and kid-friendly. Its central location is a plus, surrounded by ample free parking, although finding a spot might require a bit more effort on weekends. The food is exceptional; I tried the Gucci Burger, which was cooked perfectly and delicious. The staff is very friendly. I'll definitely consider it again, especially for outings with larger groups.Parking: During the weekend, one may find a spot a bit further.“
“Love this place, best haïtien food in my neighborhood!France is amazing and generous, the food is tasty, fresh, affordable.Merci beaucoup, je recommande votre spot à tous mes amis du coin.Definitely gonna be a weekly ritual to hit a griot there.“
“Meilleur repas que j'ai mangé depuis des années. Super bons cocktails!!!On se penserait au Vietnam avec des plats frais, savoureux et colorés. Le service exceptionnel. Les serveurs-ses sont très sympathiques et de bons conseils. La salade de mangue est tellement savoureuse et belle. Vraiment une belle découverte. Nous avons adoré et très bons prix pour la qualité, le service et les portions. Merci!!!“
“It is cliche to say "Never judge a book by its cover", but this holds true for one of Montreal's hidden gems. Cafe Solaris attributes its pride in the quality of ingredients it uses rather than its flash on its front entrance. Yes! A typical looking walk-in cafe with down to Earth "Joes" making a true living and patrons smile. You are family the minute you walk through the door. But the real reason you come is because you know you will revel in an authentic meal, whether it be a ravishing thin crust pizza tailored to your liking, ciabatta hoagies that explode with freshness and just the right amount of crunch, or one of their gargantuan salads that leave you craving your veggies. That being said, I'd still go with the Goose Basket (a specialty gem, featuring grilled chicken and Italian sausage in a fresh salad mixture..... Yes... You read correctly - sausage in a salad). The decor is not overly fancy and... But the service, hospitality, and fully fresh lunch and dinner menu far outweigh and out match any fine eatery in the city... On top of that, you won't be burning any holes in your wallet. The two partners (Giovanni and Roberto) will ensure you come back for more again and again. It's a winner.“
“What more could you ask for? Super friendly and accommodating staff, good beer, an ecological stance. The space is pleasant and multifunctional (can meet many needs) with great cultural programming. In short, for a little drink, a meal or an event, it's perfect!“
“We took a quiet table at the back (there were 4 of us). Interesting and varied menu. Courteous and very caring service. We turned the plates of minced steak over to cook them further (from there to specify if you want medium, meaning without pink inside). The waitress took care of everything and the result was perfect. Tuna salad cooking tataki for me and beetroot salad were very good.“
“Phenomenal experience, classy venue, and incredibly friendly and accomodating staff. Claude and JP went above and beyond to make our event run smoothly and efficiently. From the waitresses, to the DJ, everyone involved were always smiling and incredibly polite!This was our first time organizing an event for our firm at this location, and we will DEFINITELY use them again! I highly recommend booking your event here!“
“Very good selection of cigars. Nice atmosphere. Good service. Great place to 'hang' with friends and enjoy a stogie with your preferred 'spirit'. Cigar prices slightly inflated as per other lounges in the Montreal area (Stogies, Rib n Reef, Alexander's)“
“Melrose is like a hidden gem. First time we stumbled upon this place was a late night craving for pizza, and initially we thought it was more like a bar, but holy moly the pizza was amazing!! We came back again and ordered more food this time, everything was so delicious that we didn't even get a chance to take some photos lol. We then realized that the cuisine is authentic Sicilian. No wonder everything is so flavourful and fresh! Excellent food and warm people, we love this place!“
“I think everything. I went there for the 1st time this weekend (Saturday) I was surprised to see the friendly, professional staff from the start. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was great & the entertainment "The ClubHouse" was awesome. The guys & girls sang amazing & they were fantastic. I'd recommend to anyone I give it 5 stars“
“In the damp embrace of March's eve,On the corner street where shadows weave,A neighborhood bar's lights softly gleam,Reflecting in puddles, like a moonlit dream.Whispers of laughter, glasses clink,In the moist air, secrets sync,Raindrops dance on the cobblestone,A symphony of solitude, an atmosphere sown.Through misty panes, a warm allure,Inviting souls seeking an antidote pure,The night unfolds its mystic grace,In the haven of the bar, a tranquil space.“
“My Wife and I spent an evening there. Intended to have some wings and a beer. We stayed for Karaoke and several more beers!! The Bartender , Eric, was awesome. The people were so friendly and welcoming. So if you are in the area on Wednesday or Saturday nights, take in a fun evening. You won't regret it !! ?“
“définitivement un des meilleurs bars de quartier de Montréal. Steph et Pascal sont super cool, les cocktails "sua coche" et leurs bieres spécialement brassées pour l'endroit excellentes! Meilleurs Dj 100% vinyles de tout Montréal en plus!“
“Great place to eat. I enjoyed my Chicago pizza and my don loved his pouting. Very friendly staff and the orders were taken and the meal was quickly delivered.Very nice atmosphere and a they have a great area for larger groups. Everyone was pleased with their meals.“
“Great discovery! The atmosphere is perfect for an evening alone or with friends. Nice cocktail and wine list, and several good beers. The food is particularly interesting, somewhere between nostalgia for our childhood and Christmas potluck, you can have bites by the piece, or assorted plates, including sandwiches without crusts, Mimosa eggs, polpetta, etc. Delicious and very affordable! Very fast and pleasant service“
“Delicious on a whole new level!! ?Appetizer: stripped bass crudo and bread (focaccia with wild stripped bass on a bed of kohlrabi crostone). As a foodie, the crudo was unreal (similar to ceviche). For main, I had the pork chops, quite filling, quite fatty I'm taste and generous proportions.The St Rita drink was perfect cocktail for a sweet ending.Thank you Xavier for excellent service.Vegetarian options: AvailableParking: A 5-minute walk from the closest subway stop (Villa Maria)“
“Great experience! We were a group of 10 last weekend and we were very pleased by the service and the food.The manager on the floor was hands down and our server was so friendly, polite and courteous. We were offered extra « surprise » shoots which made the experience even more pleasant and enjoyable, we ordered twice!! Food was served on time, place was super clean and we will for sure go back soon. Great customer service!!“
“I went there and I get mesemorised , small bar , like a home and like a family . Very respectful, super fun. Bar tender jason and Katrina are amazing....super friendly n Everyone knows each other and take care of each other, for me it's like a home away from home....I am part of this fun group now.Thanks!!“
“Everything about this restaurant is nice! The food to share is delicious, the flavors are sought after, the quantities are perfect! The service is fast and efficient! The decor is magnificent, the atmosphere is pleasant! In short, everything is worthy of a 5 star in this restaurant!“
“Delicious burger. It takes a big mouth to eat it. Warm atmosphere and the Boss presented us with his selection of AAA cuts of Angus meat. very well presented. I went there with a group and were served with courtesy and respect. I will go back there for sure.“
“This place was amazing. We spent our honeymoon in Montreal and this was the final destination of our first night. The pop-up @blacklagoonmtl had amazing decorations, ambience, music, etc. The owner/bartender was super friendly and very entertaining (especially in combination with some local regulars), and the drinks were creative and delicious. Public transit makes it easy to get here even if you're staying in downtown Montreal. If you're into a local bar scene with professionals who appreciate the art, service and science of tending bar, this is a must-see. Also, get a shirt. The design alone is worth it.“
“We really enjoyed ourselves and our waiter was outstanding, I don't remember his name but he was definitely one of the best waiters we've had at the keg or anywhere else. I make it a point of coming to the Keg at least 3 to 4 times per month and will continue to do so.“
“Nice restaurant with beautiful decor and good music! Why go to this restaurant? For something new, flavor in the different tapas and a good atmosphere! I went there with a friend on a Friday evening and we loved EVERYTHING about the meals! Such a delicious salad that contained popcorn (yes! yes!), tasty pork tacos and the other tapas we had were all just as delicious! A special mention to Pascal who served us throughout the evening with whom we lacked nothing and to M.J the chef who cooked the meals in front of us. I have to go back! ^_^“
“Nice restaurant for 5@7 or weekend night out. Like the ambiance vibes with comfortable seating. Reservation is recommended on weekends and Fridays nights. In general the food is very good. I sometimes just order a bunch of entrees. The service is quite good.Parking: Shopping mall free parkingKid-friendliness: Kids are welcome except at the bar sectionWheelchair accessibility: Street level. Easy access“
“Miiiaaammm. Best burger i’ve had in a very long time. I took the avocado burger with a side of Mac N Cheese and it was simply delicious. The service was really great as well. The waitresses were so nice and greeting. However, it was definitely very loud, but there’s not much the restaurant can do about that. There was a small wait at the door, but overall very good!!!! I definitely recommend“
“Food is great - I often visit for special occasions. I personally recommend the rib-steak with sweet potato fries.Service is lacking - sometimes it's great other times you can tell the staff are overworked.Overall - Expensive, but thankfully the food is good so I'm content paying a premium price.“
“Tried le poutine bar in laval for dinnerThe interior is cool, very colorfulWe tried many items and everything was delicious. The poutine is out of this world.They use high quality ingredients.Very Friendly staff ! Fair prices!Follow @ayahayek_ for more on instagram“
“We really enjoyed our improvised nye at this pub! They welcomed us really well considering we arrived 3 minutes before midnight. Good ambiance and service! The only comment I have is the lack of alcohol in the cocktails, other than that we had a great time.“
“We had a good time! The atmosphere was vibrant. The staff was energetic and helpful. They recommended fun games. The food and beverages were good.I removed a star because we were 5 people sitting on a 4-people table. It wasn't comfortable at all. We had booked for 5. Other smaller groups were sitting comfortably on bigger tables.“
“Great place to chill with a good plate of fat.Billiards available and large table for evenings with several people. The waitresses are super friendly and attentive.There would be a lack of healthier food or a less “burned” burger on the outside.And quieter music so you can chat without shouting.But I really enjoyed my evening.Thank you damn barrel“
“Recently came at this bar for a few drinks, pin ball and music.Bar is located right on Beaubien Street nearby the Metro Station. Bar has two pinball machines and the bar has plenty to select. Band on stage was very good! I hung out with the soundman (man with beard) and he was great at explaining what he does, super friendly staff members.Will absolutely be back!“
“This is done mid covid. So.They were missing many of the guns on the menu, and the service was very very slow, (but Covid stopped a lot of shipments, and they were super busy, so mileage may vary)Nice cocktails, great tonic to go with the gin. A little expensive for a gin tonic, but definitely worth going. And I'll be spending more time here soon“
“Honestly. I love my solitude. I love going to bars and drinking alone. I also hate leaving reviews. But this is one of the few exceptions.This bar was the first time I was glad to go alone, cause I accidentally met the most welcoming and pleasant people who work and also were customers.There is no pressure when going there. Just show up. Drink. And enjoy.Shout out to Phil. Thanks for the drinks. And letting me visit Canada as an honorary Canadian.“
“Beautiful bar to have a good cold beer with a friend and the best shooters in town. ?People were playing slot machines and this kept the manager busy paying out customer winnings ?.Good atmosphere. Would perhaps benefit from a singer on Friday and/or Saturday ?“
“The ambiance in this bar is fun . And the decor is great . The bartenders . The owners . And the manager, are all super nice . And very great people . I come here often . And not once did I not enjoy myself . The drinks are well priced . You'll be surprised when looking at your receipt how cheap it is .. and definitely will want to tip the cute bartenders .“
“This bar has a welcoming atmosphere and stellar cocktails--my drink had basil and we watched the bartender pluck fresh basil right from the plant! I also appreciated that they had non-alcoholic options for my partner who doesn't drink.“
“Great casual place to relax. Shisha is great. Coffee and desserts are good. When they don't have the dessert you want, they provide other alternatives. Service is good. Music is not too loud, just enough to enjoy when alone or with a group of 2+. Very clean and good seating.“
