My two friends and I enjoyed duck, cheese, olive and pork items from the tasting menu. And a gorgeous Cote du Rhone bottle. Good value as well.

We got situated in the bottom floor area where there was a Dj and other patrons enjoying their drinks and food. We only came here for drinks, so I got my server to surprise me with a mock tail since I was pregnant, and we got some fries on the side to munch on. Menu for food wasn't extensive, more for snacking than dining imo. Server came back with fries and our drinks. My drink was surprisingly good, I had to make sure there was no alcohol, since I could taste somewhat of gin in there, but there wasn't! The fries were hot and fresh, so good! The other 4 ladies had no problem devouring their alcohol infused drinks, plus a couple of shots and off to another bar we go!

Like many of Montreal's bar, this place had sort of an alt-rock, hippie, 60's vibe, but served up delicious martinis, wine, and charcuterie. The perfect spot to start off an evening on St. Denis.

After a day of shopping downtown, my wife and I exited the Metro at Mont-Royal and started walking…read moreto our temporary home for the week in the neighborhood. Just before arriving, we decided to stop in to Les Torchés for a drink or two. I was happy to see a wide variety of beers on tap, and chose a pint of Murphy's Irish Stout ($10) to start. After inquiring whether margaritas were made from scratch or from a premade concoction, my wife chose the margarita ($11) and then happily watched as the bartender put all the individual ingredients together in a chilled glass. Given how horrible one of our previous experiences was with a totally unfriendly bartender at an unnamed establishment in the same general vicinity as Les Torchés, I would be remiss if I didn't mention how sociable the bartender at Les Torchés was. After learning that we were visiting, she went out of her way to make us feel welcome. And even though she was responsible for patrons both inside and in the outdoor patio area, she still made time to check on us and to inquire how we were doing and whether we were ready for another drink. My wife declined, but I took her up on her offer of another pint of Murphy's. All-in-all, it was a splendid respite from a hectic day of shopping. If possible, we will return for another, longer, visit.

Adding a review of their new location on Papineau!…read more Beautiful restaurant with very high ceilings and good lighting. Their food menu is short, but they have an extensive wine list. As a table of 4, we started by sharing the Charcuterie platter Plein Sud. Unfortunately, we dug in too fast for me to take a picture, but it was very beautiful. Came with several varieties of cured meats, cheeses, grapes, fig jam, and nuts. The only complaint is that the pieces of cheese were so incredibly small, like the size of a piece of cheese you'd cut at home to eat yourself. But these tiny pieces were meant for sharing. We asked the waitress for a wine recommendation, but she didn't seem well versed in wine and kept telling us all the wine was good. We were looking for a more specific recommendation then that. Fortunately her colleague was more helpful and had a better handle on the wine menu. For entrees, we each had our own dish. I had the gnocchi with veal (reading from my previous review, it was good but I didn't see these gnocchis as potato clouds like before). The other guests had the steak tartare with fries (fries were so good!), seafood ravioli (looked generous and creamy), and the porc Jarrett. All the entrees were nicely plated and delicious! We ended the evening with the Brioche pain perdu with caramel salé. I thought this was going to be just okay, but it was super good and decadent! For a Tuesday evening, the restaurant was medium busy. But service was a little slow, we were told there was only one chef and she was working alone. So given that context, she was working as quickly and well as she could!

I got a Paloma and my colleague got a Mezcal tester which came with 3 different shots. I can't remember the names of them all but one of them was casamigos.

The service was really quick and friendly, there are many spelling mistakes in the menu (brocori tepmura anyone?) and sometimes things arrive at your table without you actually ordering it but really, aren't all these places kind of like this? Everything my friend and I ordered was really good and I wish I had more space to try more of their maki rolls. This is the first sushi restaurant I've been to that puts cheese on their sushi and I'm not sure how I feel about it. It's a bring your own wine place (good to know for next time :)) and I would also like to try their desserts (also next time). I will definitely be back to try more things on the menu, it's exciting to have an AYCE sushi place closer to me than Montreal so I will take advantage of it :)
