    This is one of Montreal’s great restaurants. It is an Art Deco restaurant which first opened in 1931, and recently reopened after being closed for 25 years. Not only is the food, service, and view impeccable, but if you walk around, you will experience nearly a hundred years of history. Not to be missed.

    World-class service and menu. One of the best dining experiences we’ve ever had. Perfect for a special or romantic occasion but also great for a small group dinner. We highly recommend Ferreira, a true Canadian gem.

    Took a guest from out of town. She was disappointed with the lack of choices. You need to add more types of salads, besides the Cobb. Just some positive criticism. The vibe is fun, manager Viola is so pleasant and accommodating. Bravo. Just need a few tweaks.

    We had an amazing dining experience! The food was phenomenal, and the service was top-notch.  It was a great way to celebrate our anniversary with possibly the best paella we have ever eaten. And the cheeses and chorizo were authentic Spanish along with the jamon, all freshly sliced to order. The wine selection was excellent and everyone on staff was friendly and accommodating.  Highly recommended!

    Another great meal! This was the second visit to the Keg (different location) where the prime rib was served lukewarm. They immediately swapped it for a new piece and management ensured it was to my liking.
