Our waiter was wonderful. He was attentive & welcoming. I’m glad we choose to be seated in the dining area instead of patio so we can get the purple vibes. I loved the decor. The drinks were okay. Food are small portions for its price but that wasn’t surprising base on other people’s reviews. The food was flavorful. I don’t think I would visit again, but it is a great place to go and catch up with friends.

The restaurant itself is beautiful, with the windowed roof and outdoor seating area. The food was good, it didn’t blow us away but everything was executed well. We got the charred leaks, bone marrow/escargot, beef tartar, mussels, burger, scallops, gnocchi and two bottles of wine. Where they missed the mark was service. The tables are small so as we finished each dish, we ended up having to stack plates versus the plates being removed from the table. Empty wine glasses were left over, dirty silverware and plates was not removed after the first course, and the table was left dirty. We had to ask for fresh silverware, a rag to wipe down the table and for the dirty dishes to be removed. Overall we had a nice time but service needs improvement.

Good food and drinks was amazing! The scallops were 5/5 we got 4 drinks total (2 in the restaurant and 2 later at the bar/lounge) they were really good and not too sweet or too bitter. The creme brulee for dessert was so yummy! Service was decent, our server was very nice and cheerful. The views and vibes were perfect 5/5. Will be back for sure!

I love this place. It’s such a nice place to go at night especially since it’s on a “rooftop”. The food was superb and drinks even better! I think service could be a tad better, was out of water and waited a long time and had to remind wait staff. Parking is also a pain in the behind like any other places downtown. Go early to find a spot, there are some hit or miss on the side. If you go and your table isn’t ready, you can sit at the bar or there’s also another bar right outside of the restaurant you can check out before Blondette.

We went for brunch. Really good food. Would highly recommend getting the crab avocado toast and trying their cocktails. Their mocktails were really good too if you don’t want alcohol, but still want a fun drink. The staff was friendly, attentive and inclusive. Had no issues at all, but you’ll probably want to make a reservation because it can get busy. The atmosphere was beautiful. I love all the plants and skylights.

Great food and drinks! Well crafted cocktails and amazing treats. High end dining, I recommend the mussels and the Old fashioned. The restaurant was at 20% but they acted like they could not accommodate more people, also if the party is 6 or larger they automatically apply a 21% tip regardless of the service. Their POS only handles 2 transactions per table, making it a bit weird to pay. I would still recommend it.

I love the decor and vibe of this place but I’m not sold on the food just yet. The drinks were great and the bartenders were nice. The space is pretty small and it’s usually packed on the weekends as info. We ordered the mussels that were not my favorite but would try this place again for the vibes.

Had a lovely dinner here, some dishes close to perfect. Tuna crudo and charred leeks were excellent in flavor, just drowning in a tiny bit too much sauce which masked the star players a touch. Pommes Anna were sooooo luxurious, fine soft layers of potato with chewy caramelized outsides and yummy cheese and sauce to compliment. Steak tartare had a nice pickle-y taste but again the sauce totally overwhelmed the dish – couldn’t taste the meat which is a shame in a tartare! Service was friendly, helpful and progressional. I will be back!
