About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for fine wines
Chef Chuck Hughes and Chef Christopher Merrick collaborate to offer a mind bending experience at this Old Montreal landmark. Over the top tasting menus in a supremely unique historic building, complimented by outstanding service, an unparalleled atmosphere and deep, notable wine selections.

*Please note that we have a full bar permit, which in Quebec means NO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18 ALLOWED.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Christopher Merrick

From the OpenTable editors: It’s always a scene at this small but lively restaurant in Old Montreal from Iron Chef America winner Chuck Hughes. A massive, ornate chandelier frames an all-out meal where you can order a seafood tower, lobster agnolotti, and hangar steak in onion sauce, all served in a cozy, old stone building. Or let the chef decide and pick from four to seven courses for a memorable night out.

    Excellent service. Most of the food was delicious. There were 2 or 3 that did not taste great. It is a nice restaurant but much louder then I was expect ing and really no comfy tables out of the way. Very expensive.

    The staff were lovely and very welcoming The starter Nordic Shrimp, the balance of lettuce to shrimp was too much and I’m not sure the speck added anything as at first I thought it was some shell left in the meal. The mains again very tasty, but as the plates were cold the food got cold quickly and the halibut was a little under. Would go again but just make different choices.

    The food does not taste as good as before. Not sure if they changed the chef, but not worth it anymore.
