Reviews for Restaurant Ikanos in Montréal, QC

Had a great evening here to celebrate a project completion. Staff were friendly and provided us the attention despite the larger... group. After a bit of a wait, the food came. The squid, calamari and lobster were a hit! I also enjoyed the appetizers with thedelicious dips. I thought the fish, believe it was sea bass, was ok and a bit on the overcooked side. But overall goodexperience. Read more

I haven't had such an amazing dinning experience in a long time. We were 4 people and ordered the 96$ sharing plate for two of... us & the MTL à table menu for the other two. EVERYTHING was delicious, well seasoned & perfectly portions. I cannot stressenough on how good the food was. Everything from the hummus, the bread, to the fish, pasta and seafood was perfect. Our waiterwas also extremely polite and nice. The service was amazing. He was very knowledgeable of the menu which is alwaysappreciated. I loved the atmosphere which is very peaceful and intimate (perfect for dates). The bill was about 170$ perperson. With drinks. Every penny was worth it. Can't wait to go back. Read more

Amazing experience here. Who knew you could dry age fish like a steak? The dry aged salmon sashimi was to die for! Seafood... platter was delicious and the staff was very friendly. Make sure you get the fried cheese and tzatziki! Read more

After placing our order, we waited around 25 minutes until we had to ask the waiter what was going on with our meal and drinks,... which we then learned they had prepared and forgotten. The food was expensive, with very small portions, and overcooked. Notworth it. Read more

It would be impossible to recommend your restaurant to a friend. The food was just awful. Mostly overcooked, generally bland... and doubtably fresh. I only liked the zucchini but I can’t justify the price I paid and feel good about it. Read more

Wonderful seafood options, guaranteed delicious meal. Went with their tasting experience which was 3 shared courses between two... of us, plus a shared dessert. All meal items were delicious, with the dessert slightly underwhelming in comparison to therest. It's an expensive restaurant, the tasting experience being 96 dollars a head, and one might question the cost whenevaluating the simplicity of what's on the table in front of them. An entire sea bass and a pound of octopus and squid probablyadds up. Either way expect to spend around $70-$100 for an average a la carte order. That being said, portion sizes are good andflavours are wonderful. I left overly full and satisfied. I do recommend the tasting experience if you can fork out 96dollars. To note: the fish plate did not come presented like that, it was an entire sea bass on a shared platter which wasportioned out onto our plates by our server. Best fish I've had all year easily. On the side was charred/grilled leeks, whichwere very good also. Read more

We took the Montreal a la table course, the quantity is definitely not enough for two adult. Four courses with no breads or... rice. Sea urchin doesn't taste fresh. Two scallops and one sea bass only. Dessert was actually the best of the night. Not worthfor 75$/person. Service was slow at the beginning, took long to place the order. But it was ok after. Expected more at thisprice. Read more

Not the first time at Ikanos, and the experience is still great. Service staff is excellent, and ambiance is very nice. Also not... too uptight and nicely casual. The star here for me is the seafood platter. That plus a side and a starter is probably the bestvalue. There is a 22oz steak to share that I haven't tried yet which could be great, but I feel like having steak at Ikanos isbetraying the main reason to go there. A surf n turf is probably a really good idea though! The fish is also good. $71 forSeabass can be a bit off putting, but if it's indeed a fresh import, cooked in the wood oven, served full at the table deboned,I can see how you get to that price. Oyster black garlic mushrooms were good, but you can skip it. It's nice in moderation butdon't need that big of a plate of it. It would be much nicer to have 2 smaller sides than a big side of that. Else, the Greeksalad looked nice. Ikanos does (or did pre-covid) have very nice value for lunch though, so you could try that too. That isall! Congrats on reopening successfully! Read more
