About the restaurant

Damas, an upscale Syrian restaurant located on Van Horne Avenue is worth trying out. You will be charmed by the Oriental decor and most impressed by their refined and rich cuisine. This modern but authentic gastronomy will make your mouth water with all their specialties starting from the fattouche, the appetizing mouth-melting lamb leg to the cherry kebab. The blend of aromas and the tasting of the delicious preparations will make the experience worthwhile

My new favourite restaurant in Montreal! Outstanding food, impeccable service. Portion sizes were much more generous than expected. I was pleased to be offered complementary shots for my birthday. A special mention to the pistachio and syrian cotton candy ice cream, delightful. Thanks to all the team for this great experience.

Excellent food! The Minestra soup with cavatelli and chicken reminded me of my mom’s. Salmon was perfectly cooked. A must if you’re in Little Italy!

My experience at fishbone was excellent from the food to the service. Later on in the evening it gets a little clubby good music which is fun I thought. Everything was prepared and served fast and efficient. The duck and wagyu tacos were delicious. I would definitely eat here again.

Everything - from Gyoza to sashimi and hotate special - excellent quality and great freshness of ingredients and flavour. The restaurant was quite empty when we arrived from another event but by 9 pm it had filled nicely. Service was impeccable, attentive but not overbearing. Would love to come back and sit at the bar - grand presentation. Looking forward to return on my next visit to Montreal.

About the restaurant

Le restaurant caché façon speak-easy bénéficie d'une vue pittoresque sur le Saint-Laurent. Au cœur de la cuisine du chef, la Gargamelle offre une approche profondément humaine, où le chef Loyd Von Rose vient à votre table pour vous présenter les plats.

La Gargamelle offre une expérience culinaire complexe et généreuse en proposant 7 services pour explorer continuellement de nouvelles associations de saveurs. De nature éclectique, le menu à la carte puise ses inspirations à travers le monde, offrant des plats tels que le magret de canard à la Pékin, le cassoulet, la morue au miso, un trou normand ou encore des huitres composées au yuzu et caviar de pineau des Charentes.

La Gargamelle propose un menu à la carte ainsi qu'un menu dégustation de 4 à 7 services avec pairing de cocktails.
Les cocktails sont conçus de manière aussi élaborée que les plats, afin d'accompagner chaque assiette de façon créative, offrant ainsi une expérience sensorielle complète et harmonieuse.

Our experience at La Gargamelle was the best I’ve had in a long time! My partner and I drove out to Montreal for an early birthday celebration and decided to try out the five course tasting menu. The quality of the food, paired with the delicious cocktails was above and beyond. The care that Manu and Lloyd put into the customer service and food preparation made us feel as if we were family. Mikael even brought out the Tuna Heart (a delicious and surprising addition to the devilled egg course) for us to see. If you are looking for a unique and delectable dining experience, I highly recommend La Gargamelle.
