    Great food. Great service. Ambience is very nice for a date. My only complaint is the window seating gets a bit cold, could use some curtains or maybe some space heaters over there.

    Le seul commentaire constructif je dirais c'est la confusion de la réservation pour Vendetta bar à vin qui passe par Mauvais Garçons.. Dans mon moment de confusion, je me suis fier à mes courriels et nous avons effectivement mangé à Mauvais Garçons en oubliant complètement que nous avions réservé pour Vandetta! Ils nous ont gentiment accommodé comme si rien n'était mais je me dis que ça ne doit quand même pas etre sans consequences... Nous avons passé une belle soirée, le menu à partager était délicieux!!

    Service de Gian Carlos qui dépasse les attentes. Attentionné, compréhensif et sait faire des suggestions selon nos besoins. Staff souriant, formule tapas avec plats recherchés. Seule recommandation, dans les choix de menu expérience, lorsque nous sommes 2 couples, ce serait mieux d avoir les plats par couple et non pas une plus grande portion pour 4. Si on se connaît bien ça va mais si c est une première rencontre c est moins plaisant de piger dans le même plat! Merci encore je recommande sans hésiter.

    Nous étions deux couples à vivre pour la première fois l'expérience gastronomique du menu expérience à 65$ de Mauvais Garçons. Chacun a apprécié les mets servis autant pour les aliments choisis, leurs arômes, l'harmonie de ceux-ci et la créativité qu'on y a mis. De plus, la carte des vins et bières est d'un bon niveau. De plus, notre hôte Juan Carlo s'est avéré charmant, aidant et professionnel. Nous avons soupé en la partie du restaurant qui est le bar à vin "la Vendetta ", endroit sympathique et aménagé joliment. Si nous avions une petite suggestion à vous faire, ce serait celle-ci... Un menu raccourci d'un ou deux plats serait certes suffisants pour plusieurs ...

    This is a gastronomic experience. Small dishes meant for sharing. Tuna and cauliflower tacos are my personal favorites!!! Dishes are creative and varied. Would recommend this place for anyone who likes food. Only down side is that there is absolutely zero parking!!! Best to Uber if you can’t park further away and walk

    The food was a little salty to my personal taste, but still pretty good. The music was nice but sometimes the style was a little intense (ex: Metallica). We liked our experience overall but we would have liked a little more choice of food to accommodate our taste. Because it was a shared plate, it could be a little difficult to choose if one of us did not like something in the plate.

    We had a lovely evening enjoying some small plates and delicious cocktails. The neighborhood is a little off the beaten path but appears to be in an up and coming neighborhood. Nice ambience and atmosphere, where you felt like you could sit, enjoy and take your time experiencing a variety of small, shareable dishes. The Lavender 75 cocktail was 🤌🏻

    Nous avions pris le menue expérience, le roulement des plats fut difficile. On a oublié de nous servir un des plats. Nous sommes avons dû le dire au serveur. Nous sommes restés au total 3h dans le restaurant. Malgré, que le serveur fut très sympathique, il serait mieux de demander si on aimerait avoir un service lent ou plus rapide au niveau des plats.

    It wasn’t my first time the food is always great. The ambiance is fantastic . I’ve always booked the experience menu, which is so good as you get to taste several options and they serve them slowly one a time. Perfect setting for date night or dinner with friends.The service is fantastic they make really good cocktails. My only issue is that the menu is still the same I would have liked to see new items but if you haven’t gone before I highly recommend. Never disappoints.

    Fantastic food. The tasting menu was delicious, with different textures and tastes. My 2 cents would be to tweak the menu a tiny bit to add some type of kimchi or Korean flavor. I think it would add to the menu. The bavette was delicious (the sauce a little too sweet, but the meat was tender and very tasty). Here, a little salty/fermented would have been
