The verdict

A solid casual pick: short menu, bold flavours, low plastic tables. Order the bò né and the bún bò Huế. The catch is that Thanksgiving Monday hours are not confirmed, so call or check the booking page before building a plan around it.

  • Tastet 2026 review
  • Affordable, nothing over $25 per Tastet

Why maybeGood sentiment and recent listings with no closure notice, but no official source and Oct 12 (Thanksgiving) hours unknown.

How much we'll spend

$$$$Est. $25 / person

Tastet states no dish exceeds $25; no official menu seen. Restoenligne shows a $$ level, so a dish plus a drink may exceed $25pp. Treat as roughly $ to $$.

Our estimate from posted prices, CAD, before tax and tip. Québec purchases carry the 5% federal GST plus the 9.975% Québec Sales Tax (QST, TVQ in French): 14.975% combined on taxable items. Tourisme Montréal: it is customary to tip restaurant servers, taxi drivers and hairdressers 15% of the bill, before taxes. Bellhops, porters and doormen generally get at least $2 per bag or service; coffee and food counters often have a tip cup by the register.
