Top tags:

Tbsp. is a new, Italian-inspired, market-fresh eatery.

Tbsp. is a story of expertise and gourmandise. It’s the precision of making sure every plate not only highlights the freshness of its parts, but is greater than them. But above all, it’s the joy of tasting, one spoonful at a time.

Excellent choice for a business dinner. We needed to be serviced within one hour and the team (Daniel and a lady working with him) made it happen impeccably well. Food was delicious, and it had very good value for the price, all things considered.

Took the tasting menu. Appetizers were good. Pasta average. Mains under average and not very well presented. Service was slow and a bit confused (we received our desserts before the mains). When probed why it was so slow, we were told that a large group in the VIP Area was monopolizing their attention (kind of adding insult to injury, even if said politely and with some empathy). They did spontaneously remove $20 off the bill as a spontaneous apologetic gesture… but that does not make it a great experience. Lots of work to do before measuring to Graziella and other high end Italian restaurants in Montreal.

I made a reservation because of an IG reel that was talking about the Funky Brunch. Other restaurants did that and I enjoyed it that is why I made the reservation. First, the place is beautiful. Really love the decor: chic and simple. My kind of place. Love the blue banquet. For a small place, the jazz band was too loud. The music selection was perfect. The food was very succulent and affordable for the price. The mocktail was delicious. The only issue was the service. We arrived at 11h30 and waited 15 minutes before our waitress came. We had to call her that is why she came. When we asked questions about the menu she responded she was new and will ask for the manager to come. Usually, the new waiter will say they will verify with the bartender and come back to us but not her. Finally, after waiting for another 10 minutes, another waitress came to take our order. She was nice and cordial. Never said her name. We order at the same time but our food came at different times. Even tables that order after we got their food before us. I order 2 cups of coffee and my friend who was late ordered a latte and she received her before mine. During the meal, we had to keep reminding her that the items we order were missing. We left around 3 pm. It's how long the service was. I will not be returning. I will not recommend this restaurant even though the food is excellent and the place is gorgeous. The service is mediocre and it's not acceptable in a city like Montreal where they are a lot of excellent restaurants with incredible service. The competition is fierce. Tsbp has to step up.

2 hour wait for our brunch, came at 11am main food came out at 1:10PM. We are also hotel guest. Tables able of us got their food first. At least the host wished up happy anniversary. The starting appetizer was good. Smoothie was forgotten. All of this was told to the staff. The bread/pastry basket was forgotten. Being a guest at the hotel thought we would get better service. The Asian host was the nicest lady.

Unfortunately the service was not at the level i would have expected for the W. The main course and appetizers were decent. The pastry basket was very much appreciated. The portions were generous. The jazz band was great. It helped add much needed ambiance.

We had a lovely meal with nine (6 adults and 3 children under eight). They were so welcoming and the server was first rate. The food was terrific. I loved the sweet corn risotto. Others had the lamb ragu tagliatelle and gave it positive reviews. The charcuterie board was well received. Focaccia was not a traditional one. It was more like bread. The one we ordered had zucchini spirals and buratta and was very good but not really focaccia. In the desserts I loved the blood orange baba and another guest ordered the chocolate hazelnut and gave it great reviews. Recommended

It was a Funky brunch, with live music (2 singers/musicians). But the place was almost empty so with no ambiance. The food was, let's say, average. For examples the pastries looked like they were made the day before. We were a party of 6. Some dishes looked better than others but globally, we expected much more for this value.

Très bon groupe de musique, parfait pour un brunch. Par contre, le deuxième service est arrivé très rapidement, nous avions à peine commencé à déguster les bons pains et viennoiserie servis en premier service. Le 3 ième plat est de très gros format, nous avons dû en laisser beaucoup dans l’assiette. Il faut dire que le poulet frit et la gaufre se mangeaient très mal puisque le poulet avait des os. Pas facile de se couper une bouchées. Nous avons attendu 45 minutes entre la fin du repas et la réception de la facture sans jamais se faire demander si nous voulions autre chose ou remplir nos verres d’eau. Pour un brunch à 325$ pour 4 je m’attendais à un service impeccable et une nourriture très bonne. La tartine de betterave était bonne, le poulet frit et gaufre, très ordinaires.
