The Best Dining Experience I've Had in Montreal This Year!

After months of anticipation, our group finally dined at Makro par GRINDER, and it exceeded all expectations - every single dish was a masterpiece! 🍽️ Can't-Miss Dishes 🐟 Tuna Rice Cakes (★★★★★) The standout star! Crispy rice cakes topped with melt-in-your-mouth tuna tartare and a spicy mayo drizzle. We immediately ordered seconds! 🦴 Bone Marrow (★★★★☆) Served piping hot with toasted bread - the rich, buttery marrow paired perfectly with their house-made pickled vegetables to cut through the richness. 🥩 Beef Ribeye (★★★★★) A generous 12oz cut cooked to a perfect medium-rare. The chimichurri sauce added a bright, herby contrast to the juicy meat. 🦞 Lobster Pasta (★★★☆☆) Al dente pasta in a luxurious lobster bisque sauce, though the creaminess became overwhelming towards the end (great for sharing between 3-4 people). 🍸 Drink Highlights Their mixologist deserves awards! We tried: "Yuzu Fizz" (vodka, yuzu, elderflower) "Smoked Maple Old Fashioned" (their signature!) "Berry Rosemary Mocktail" (for our DD) All were balanced and inventive - no syrup bombs here! ✨ The Full Experience Ambiance: Industrial-chic with warm wood accents and soft lighting Service: Attentive but not intrusive (they even comped us an extra dessert!) Value: $$$ but worth every penny for special occasions 📍 Makro par GRINDER Reservations essential - books out 2-3 weeks in advance! #MontrealFineDining #DateNightSpot #FoodieApproved
