What an incredible meal at Lumi! We enjoyed the 11-course tasting menu, and every dish showcased creative combinations of flavours that felt both innovative and beautifully executed. The ambiance was elegant and inviting, and the subtle video art projections added a unique touch that enhanced the overall dining experience. The entire experience was truly special. Definitely one of the best meals I have had in Montreal.
Reviews / Ratings for Restaurant LUMI
Food was pretty awful and overdone, my advice would be to keep it simpler. Allow the food to speak for itself! It felt like everything was masked with weird flavours and an overabundance of ingredients. The whole experience was just weird. The server seemed super into the concept but it just didn’t work. We dined at 7:00pm and there was no one else in the restaurant which was also off putting. Additionally, the hotel was upstairs and people staying have to walk through the restaurant. Would never go back. One star because the mocktail was good!
it was an amazing evening spent at Lumi. From beginning to end throughout the evening ,our waitress was very helpful and knowledgeable at explaining every dish of the tasting menu we were having. As to the food , I must say every dish was a state of the art dish in terms of presentation, and then every bite of each of the tasting menu was incredibly good, savoury and honestly wanted it to last , but yet again the following dish was as incredibly tasty as the previous one . If you are looking for a special out of the ordinary evening, this is definitely the place. .
Warm, inviting atmosphere. Great service and a wonderful 9-course tasting menu.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We dined at Lumi in February for a family birthday celebration, and the entire evening was exceptional. We chose the restaurant in part because I’ve known the executive chef since he was young, and this was my first time experiencing his work as an executive chef in his own space. That personal connection made the evening meaningful for us, but what truly stood out was how completely the experience stood on its own. We enjoyed the nine-course tasting menu, and from the very first course, it felt like a curated artistic journey. The plating was extraordinary. Each dish looked like a piece of art. The dinnerware itself elevated the presentation even further. Every course arrived with intention, precision, and beauty. One of the most thoughtful touches of the evening was the way each dish was presented. As the courses arrived, we were given the option of having them explained tableside or receiving a small card displayed on a little easel describing the ingredients and concept behind the dish. We chose the cards, and it was such a brilliant detail. It allowed us to stay immersed in our family conversation without interruption. Instead of pausing to listen to a formal explanation, we read the cards together, discussed the ingredients, compared flavors, and shared reactions. It made the experience interactive, intimate, and genuinely fun. For a table full of food lovers, it created a shared experience rather than a presentation. The pacing, service, atmosphere, and overall artistry were beautifully executed. Even without a personal connection, this would have been a standout dining experience. An unforgettable birthday celebration and a truly elevated culinary experience in Montreal. Five stars without hesitation. 💥
Went here for a family birthday dinner. The food was exceptional. The creative pairings were interesting and tasty. We did the 9 course tasting each dish was so well thought out. The service was great and the staff ensures you have an enjoyable experience.
The evening was magical from the moment we arrived until the very last morsel of the, world class, cuisine was enjoyed. The atmosphere was welcoming calming and embracing. The staff were warm, wonderful, friendly and helpful. The food was beyond amazing. We had the tasting menu and each new dish was served with elegance, beautifully presented and full of rich wonderful flavor. The blends of sweet and savory, and the unique combinations of spices, were a treat to the palate. I can say without a doubt, that I have never tasted anything as magnificent, as this. A dining experience you wont want to miss. Hats off to Executive Chef, Graham Hood, top drawer!!
We experienced a beautiful evening at Lumi the other night. Exquisite, artistic, flavourful food delighting our palettes.The ambiance was serene, relaxing and visually appealing. Graham Hood, the executive chef, is truly in his element with his expressive, tantalizing 9-15 course tasting menu. The combination of flavours, presentation and visual delight was a once in a lifetime experience. We can’t wait till we’re back in Montreal to go again!
