The athmosphere was warm and fantastic, there was a chansonnier who was singing Madelinot's songs. The service was great and all the waiters were smiley. I took the lobster on Table d'Hôte with the five kinds of salads (my favorites were the Tomato & Cucumber salad and the rice salad) and everything tasted like home made food and was very fresh and delicious. We also had a bottle of Jacobs' Creek (red) which was also very good. This restaurant is definitely worth the detour. we had a great time and it is now one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal!
When it comes to seafood, we always want more. So, happiness will be ours by tasting their seal and smoked mackerel with cranberry jam ($2) or the seafood soup ($4).
Located on the far western part of Wellington Street, a very special restaurant called les Îles-en-Ville allows me to take a few moments to relax, especially outside on their terrace. A trip to Les îles en villes makes me feel as if I were on an island vacation. I especially like the "le tour de l’île" ("tour of the island") dish composed of cheese, rillettes, péperettes and smoked fish, as well as their cod croquette. I discovered seal here in the form of burgers and péperettes, and the dandelion "bagasse," an indigenous artisan wine whose alcohol percentage is quite high.
This spot is perfect for when you’re in need of a change of scenery. The menu, as well as the ambiance, is inspired by les Îles-de-la-Madeleines. The team here is fabulous and very friendly.
