    The resturant is in a beautiful location but as many may already know old Montreal isn’t fun to find parking! The service was fabulous I couldn’t ask for any better.The issue for me was the food, it really wasn’t that great.The lobster inside my lobster roll seemed like pre frozen or from a can, it was so cold it hurt my sensitive teeth and it was way to salty to enjoy.The scallop's I ordered were absolutely not fresh my husband nearly spat his out on the table.Finally the desert :( so sad a pre made re warmed chocolate something with a few berries that tasted like mold.

    The food had no flavour. Very bland. I was very disappointed since the ratings were high and comments were great. I do not recommend at all. Usually for events like Montreal a Table, the restaurants will put their best dishes out front to shine. Not the case here. Will not go back

    Queue de homard très petite, très décevant. Le gâteau au chocolat froid et dure très très de base. On nous a offert le dessert car le souper était pour l’anniversaire de ma fille, mais finalement on nous l’a chargé! Oupsi j’imagine que c’était une erreur. Sommes toute l’ambiance et le service très bien.
