Small, friendly, tasty! This petite resto in a busy area of NDG was Jamaican sophisticate. Decor was tasteful and warm. Spots were not a problem. We were a huge group which quite overwhelmed the restaurant. They had a hard time organizing orders and delivering timely. Once this was overcome though we were treated to a wonderful meal. Rich and spicy dishes, authentic flavors, old favorites. This restaurant was a genuine taste of the caribbean in a tight package.

The best part of this restaurant hands down was the staff, owners, chef, wait staff… all of them were amazing, warm and friendly. I would go back again if for no other reason than to be in their uplifting company.

Yummy coconut water. Super strong ginger beer.

They did two different wedding cakes for us within a month and both were amazing. We love them and use them exclusively for all our baking/catering needs.

I could not say enough good things about this Restaurant. Raj attended us, was super friendly. The place was well decorated and charming inside. The buffet was both reasonable and most importantly, HOT and Fresh. We will go back here anytime we want Indian. It is truly the best indian food i have had in years!

Fabulous decor. This chain has it all. A great menu, good service all in a beautiful setting. Its casual and friendly but the food is excellent and the decor feels ever so slightly upscale. Not terribly cheap it didnt break the bank either. If you spot one, its a safe bet.

This place is a family favorite. They have a great kids menu and a huge big people menu. Their sweet potato fries are to die for and the atmosphere is sports bar casual. Its a good place to go when you cant think of where else to go or your want to go in your casual, drink beer and watch the game with friends/family.

Saint Hubert is the strangest dichotomy. A kitschy chain with a silly chicken that boats a lavish dining room, full bar and childrens playing area. With its limited menu and table d’hote you always knowwhat to expect and in true chain fashion they deliver the same meal every time. Its predictable but good. They have a definite lack of veggie options and focus more on the carb side of the meal. Other than that I find no fault in this rotisserie chicken restaurant.

This local chain is amazing. Always nicely decorated its completely acceptable for business lunch, casual dinner with friends/family or special ocassion. The Ribs are the best I have ever had in my life and that is saying a lot. The prices are high but not outrageous and the service is always unexceptional. But the food…. mmm the food.

I always spot these and make note of where they are in the event I have an emergency need for ribs. Friends make fun of me for how many times I suggest going here when ideas for places to go are thrown out. Its not the place itself but its the ribs…. mmmmm ribs :D

This is the perfect spot for a business lunch with an expense account. Its business chic with trend/form/function and all that other nouveau cool stuff I am out of the loop on. Its expensive and looks it.

Wait staff is efficient and professional, bordering on friendly.

Food was warm, good, high quality.

Experience was unexceptional.

This small unassuming resto in Dorval (i dont care if they say its in Pointe Claire it sure seems like its in Dorval) is a quaint and friendly taste of Italy.

An extensive italian menu, great wine list and excellent friendly wait staff made this dining experience a “must repeat.”

For authentic Italian food in a beautifully decorated setting brave the drive from downtown and check out Natalino’s.

An incredible find. This restaurant has everything you want in fine dining with casual prices. The TDH was mostly under $30. The food was INCREDIBLE. The atmosphere is UNBELIEVABLY GORGEOUS.

I cannot say enough about this wonderful place. Everyone must experience it for themselves. We were a group of over 80 that took over the whole place. Unbelievably the service was still completely reasonable in speed/efficiency.

The decor is art deco and nouveau. Its absolutely beautiful and makes the diner feel that they are really stepping out in class.

Fantastic wine list, neat off the wall location in the old Calico Vision (spelling??) building where you can see old cabbage patch dolls and pacman games while waiting to be seated.

Very unusual and satisfying experience all around. Must go back!
