About

Behind a closed door and opaque curtains, you enter the dreamlike universe of jjacques, a space disconnected from time where the bar and kitchen unite to offer a unique experience. For one evening, let yourself be carried away by the energy that pervades it, enveloped by colors, textures, and materials, and savor the present moment. Come and enjoy an intimate and sensory pleasure-filled moment.

Is jjacques a restaurant, an oyster bar, or a cocktail bar? It's up to you to decide.

The cuisine is centered around sharing, focused on seafood and comprised of small dishes, but not neglecting fine cuts of meat and seasonal products. To fully experience it, take the time to savor one of our enticing seafood towers.

The cocktail menu, themed around travel, offers you around twenty original cocktails, both with and without alcohol, as well as many elegantly executed classics. The wine cellar hosts both classic fine wines and little treasures in nature. The bar shelves are home to the finest available spirits.

Named in Canada's 100 Best as one of the top 50 bars in the country since 2022 and holding the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence, jjacques promises you an extraordinary evening. Reservations are highly recommended.

We often visit QC from the US. We've stayed in a number of places around the city & eaten at many good restaurants. We found Jjacque online listed as a neighborhood oyster bar. As an oyster fanatic I was eager to try it. This is a small hidden gem. A little hard to find the first time. It's got a speakeasy vibe with an outstanding oyster selection, great food & wine, a super knowledgeable & friendly staff. If you love oysters & great food, don't miss this spot. Reservations necessary.

A very unique experience, from trying to find restaurant down a street that is under construction to then find only a steel door with a call button & camera outside that brings you into a special room. The host then confirms your party & vaccination cards. Then opens the curtains to the restaurant where craft cocktails are being mixed with such interesting ingredients. The menu is on one page but if you are an oyster lover, your in the right place. My wife & I sat at the bar closet to the chefs & got to see all the dishes being prepared, a fantastic experience all around! Recommend for those seeking a unique experience !

Le service est amical & juste. L'ambiance est séduisante, chic & décontractée. Pour finir, le menu est rafraîchissant & varié. Le repas était très bien exécuté & délectable avec une bonne bouteille de vin, c'était parfait! Jjacques, bar à huîtres: un incontournable!

L'ambiance du restaurant est parfaite & le personnel est accueillant & chaleureux. Nous avons vraiment apprécié l'endroit où nous étions assises. C'était intime, tout en étant dans l'ambiance du restaurant. Les cocktails étaient succulents & la nourriture était délicieuse. Une expérience remarquable. Toutefois, nous avions réservé à 20h30 & n'avons eu notre table qu'à 21h00. Ceci étant, le personnel a été très courtois en nous offrant des places au bar pour prendre l'apéro jusqu'à ce que nous puissions avoir notre table.
