Hurley's Irish Pub

I was here so many times with my friends and few times as groups of 10-15 for my friends' birthdays. It's amazing how they served such a big group in this crowded pub. The food is great. In general, I believe here is one of the best places if you want to have fun as a big group. They usually have live music as well. Just remember: if you reserve tables, be there on time or even few minutes before. Otherwise, you're gonna lose your reservation.

Liked: atmosphere, food quality and portion, bear, service

Boccacinos Restaurant

I was here with my husband and his friend to celebrate their graduation from McGill. It was a sunny spring day and we sat in the terrace which was beautiful. My husband and me didn't like the food because it was too greasy. The waitress was very rude, too. She made fun of my husband we he asked about their salad dressings, and later when we asked for our bills, she brought the bills and said "don't forgot that 15 % tip is not included in the price". In overall, we didn't like it!

Disliked: a bit pricey, service, food quality

Cuisine: Italian, North American (Menu)

Restaurant Azar


I was here with a group of 9 people for my friend's birthday. The chef forced us to choose the Machawi (22$ per person); he said you reserved a table for a group so I prepared all the food!!! My husband and I ended up paying 60$ and we were sooooo disappointed of their behaviour. The Machawi should be served for two people (44 $), but they served the food for each three of us in a shared plate, and it wasn't proportionally enough for three, it was obviously for two people but they said it's for three people and you should share!!! The most disappointing restaurant I've ever been in my life!

Liked: BYOB, food quality, decoration

Disliked: customer service, food quantity

Liked: the food quality, service, restaurant view, healthy food

Disliked: a bit pricy (we paid 46 $ for two, e.g. the mint tea was 3$), crowded, tables are very close to each other (in the first 15 minutes, we sat close to two loud guys, and we practically couldn't hear each others until we asked for another table)
