Milanese-modern decor, creature comforts, excellent service and a location in the heart of the most glamorous restaurant district of Montreal are the elegant foundations on which a récherché, reinvented Italian cuisine, and on the side, perfect sushi are served to a well-heeled clientele.
The Italian menu excels in pastas (especially the risotti) and main courses like the sublime roasted fish. The sushis would have made for exciting appetizers, if only they did not clash so jarringly with the nature and flavours of Italian cooking. Reservations essential.
