Place was pretty okay, went around 1pm on Monday. Vibes and views were nice. Though they were highly understaffed to the point where we didn’t even have a designated waiter. The manager I believed served us and kept forgetting requests. The bar was also unexpectedly closed due to them not having enough people. Which was unfortunate as we were celebrating a birthday.

Good food and great views. However, the prices are ridiculously high and small portions. The service also felt rushed: plates were cleared while we were still eating, which made us feel pressured to finish quickly. We were even asked the bill while still in conversation and not ready to leave. In the end, we were there for less than an hour despite spending a significant amount of money, which made the whole experience feel less enjoyable.
Gorgeous view, excellent food and service. Will definitely come back with the girlfriend.

The experience at this restaurant was visually pleasant, but gastronomically it fell short of expectations. The octopus, although paired with a well-flavored sauce, was not cooked properly. The bread and butter, presented as a standout specialty, felt simple and unremarkable. The alcoholic drink was acceptable, but did not justify its price. The steak, which promised to be the highlight of the evening, did not meet expectations in either flavor or execution. Without a doubt, the view is the restaurant’s greatest asset, creating a lovely atmosphere. I would consider returning for the setting and perhaps a few drinks, but not for dinner. For the price, one expects a more refined and memorable culinary experience.
Service is good, but food is bit disappointing. Desert has a bitter flavour. Very expensive I would not recommend
Great customer service and good food. We were there with our kid without know they are only 18+ restaurant but they didn't let our evening go to waste. They allowed it and let us have a good time. Really appreciate that gesture!
The staff was absolutely amazing! The view is wonderful! The food was absolutely great and inspiring!
You will have a great experience, the food, the wine, the service, the view. Impossible to go wrong
Excellent food and service, amazing views.
My friends and I booked the private room. We really enjoyed it! Spectacular view! Great service. Food was great except of the beef. Wish it could've been more tender. We will come back for sure.
Had dinner here last week and everything was exceptional: stunning views, beautiful atmosphere, truly delicious food, and above all, hospitable staff who don’t rely on the view or the chef alone to impress you — their genuine hospitality, attention to detail, and warmth elevate the entire experience. Highly recommended.
Hiatus is one of those rare places that gets everything right — which is exactly why I keep going back. The views are absolutely spectacular and instantly set the tone for a special evening. Food is — beautifully plated, flavorful, and consistently outstanding — and you already have an incredible experience. But Jessica elevates it to another level. Her attention to detail is unmatched. She remembers preferences, makes thoughtful food suggestions, and guides the table through the menu in a way that feels personal and effortless. Every recommendation she’s made has been spot-on — from standout dishes to perfect pacing of the meal. She anticipates needs before you even ask and makes you feel genuinely taken care of. Enzo also provided an exceptional wine recommendation that paired flawlessly with our meal — knowledgeable and perfectly aligned with what we were looking for - exceptional!! Hiatus delivers on food, atmosphere, and views — but it’s the service, especially from Jessica, that makes it unforgettable. I’ll continue to return — and I’ll always ask for her. Thank you Tanya & Mike
One of the best views in town. Portions are small, but absolutely delicious. Great for a date night, celebration or simply to enjoy the interior, food, ambiance and view!
Truly a spectacular restaurant from A to Z. Wonderful staff, delicious food and an unmatched atmosphere. The milk bread is a must try.
The best experience and team. If you're on the fence about going there, BOOK NOW!
Excellent 7-course tasting menu, spectacular views of Montreal. Impeccable service, relaxed, confortable atmosphere.
The vista of Montreal is truly breathtaking, and the service is simply exceptional. The food, of course, is delicious, and while it may be a bit pricey, it is entirely worth the cost.
Hiatus is always an amazing experience. À Montréal gem with a wonderful staff, great food and breathtaking views.
Thank you for an amazing dinner experience, great service and the food is sublime!
Service was really good! Food was pretty good however.. For the octopus, sauce tonkatsu was too much and i feel like its unnecessary.. its too salty with the rest of ingredients and it kills other flavour.. especially cucumber sunomono.. The scallop dish: scallop was perfectly cooked however the sauce was splitted.. so thats why i gave 3/5 stars
Wonderful experience.
Great overall. The service was very attentive and the bread is amazing
Took the 5 course tasting menu plus cocktails. All the dishes were innovative, flavorful and beautifully presented. The cocktails were exotic and delicious!
Best cocktails I’ve ever had! Sophia was lovely!
