    Absolutely phenomenal in every aspect. The service was like no other. There was a mishap between the kitchen and the manager with our food; the way they rectified it was beyond satisfactory. Absolutely recommend this restaurant if you're looking for a romantic, quiet and phenomenal dinner experience. They took my dietary restrictions extreamly serious which was very appreciated.

    We had dinner on Valentine’s Day, and ordered the specials entree’s. We shared a Caesar salad and oysters on the half as appetizers. Everything was beautifully prepared and presented. Our waiter was excellent…he knew the menu and was able to suggest the perfect cocktail and wine to complement our evening. We went back for a night cap the next night, and the night manager recognized us and came over to introduce herself. She was super friendly and we shared a nice conversation. The Sore Club is a wonderful, classy venue. We’ll be back!

    Everything was excellent. My vodka negroni was one of the best. My wife's gluten-free options were addressed to her great satisfaction. The octopus was grilled to perfection and fabulous never-heard-of veggies. Would be proud to bring my Montreal frieds to Fauna anytime.
