    So impressed with the food and plating. Cozy restaurant, but not too formal, which makes customers feel more comfortable and joyful. The price is reasonable, I highly recommend it.

    Amazing experience. We came for my girlfriend’s birthday and had 2 vegan tastings that were incredible. We didn’t feel at all like we payed for a loss of no meat or dairy and was overall very impressed with the menu and creativity. One of the best experiences we’ve had when going to a non vegan restaurant. Our service was also incredible, our server Alysse was just wonderful! super personable to talk to, comfortable and very friendly! She made the experience all that much better, and was very descriptive of each dish. You can tell there is a lot of knowledge taught/ communication between the front of house and back of house. Our tasting took a total of 4 hours and we never felt like we were forgotten or not taken care of to the full extent right till the end. We will definitely be back when we are in Montreal. This is a must to go to and just overall a welcoming exciting experience. Much appreciation to all the staff, especially the Chef who took the time to create it all for us. Thank you

    Il n'y a pas de choix de menu, on vous sert un 6 ou 7 services qui était tout simplement fabuleux. Il ne faut pas être trop difficile sur la nourriture et resté ouvert d'esprit. Je recommande fortement l'Accord mets-vins, c'était tout simplement divin!
