We were really looking forward to trying this restaurant, but our experience left a very bad impression. There was a 55-minute wait, and we added our name to the list like everyone else. Dozens of French-speaking customers were allowed to wait inside the entrance. However, when my husband and I (English-speaking) were waiting in the entrance, the host told us we had to wait outside. We witnessed another English-speaking group get told the same thing. While waiting outside, we watched a French-speaking couple arrive after us, put their name on the list, wait inside, and then be seated before us. It was very uncomfortable and felt like open discrimination based on language. Montreal is a beautiful city and we’ve had wonderful experiences everywhere else, but this was extremely disappointing.
