Fantastic dinner. Amazing service. Presentation was beautiful but taste was a bit lack luster. Wine pairing was a bit basic. The first wine pairing was actually a beer which was odd.

To start off with the positive... The staff are really nice, & it has a great atmosphere. It has a really nice looking kitchen & a funky fun vibe.

The food was... not very good. It's not bad. If I went to a friends house & they somehow produced it I would simultaneously be awed & appreciative, but secretly a bit sad they obviously spent all this time making something that was so mediocre tasting.

They mentioned boreal & terroir a lot which caused me to think that it meant'we make it locally, which means it's environmentally conscious but, unfortunately, it's pretty mediocre tasting'. BUT we subsequently went to 2 other restaurants, very close by, with the same shtick, & those two really were amazing. (Those other two Michelin star places we went to really were amazing & made the'local' thing really work)

I realize LE Clan just got a Michelin star so it's possible that they just were so relieved they kind of phoned in this season's menu. Also I realize the chef is some kind of local genius & very beloved, the branding & art is really cool, etc.

But, honestly, if you're thinking about eating here, I honestly think you'd be happier saving your money & just getting poutine from Ashtons.

I would have been.

The staff really were very good though. No complaints about them.

(If it matters, which I'm not sure if it did because all the dishes was bland, we had a the recommended menu for lunch with the wine pairing).

Une première étoile plus que justifiée. Des plats savoureux & en finesse en utilisant que des ingrédients locaux.

Restaurant gastronomique de grande qualité.
Pour le midi vous avez le choix entre un menu unique en 3 services ou une carte avec des plats (petites portions) à 5 CAD le plat.
Cela laisse la possibilité de goûter à plusieurs préparations toutes plus délicieuses les unes que les autres.
Une mention spéciale au pain à l'eau de mer, très goûteux.
Le seul bémol, selon moi :
le vin (rouge) proposé, certes bon, est cher pour la qualité.

Came here because they received a Michelin star, in my option, not worthy. Food was good, not great. Presentation lacking. Service not polished. I was very put off by the very large pop art depicting the Chef as Jesus Christ at the last supper. Very offensive.

Food was spectacular, but the coolest thing was seeing the team working as a perfect orchestra, where everybody does everything, from cooking, buzzing, taking orders, anything that needs to be done, anyone jumps at the task. A perfect team working in unison.

Was lovely, but had inattentive staff. I told them that I don't eat pork & I could literally see the server nod her head in a way that suggested she wasn't really paying attention. I wasn't surprised when my potato pave had pork in it.

For a Michelin star restaurant, that's UNACCEPTABLE.

This restaurant is amazing. We enjoyed the 6 course tasting menu with the discovery wine pairing. The food was excellent & the pairings were brilliant. The talent of the chef & staff is evident. Service was perfect & they went out of their way to relocate us from a warmer area to a cooler section. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is a true gem.

We enjoyed an excellent lunch this week at Le Clan. Food & service were Michelin star+ worthy. It's a small restaurant with a couple of dining rooms. Ask for the front room with windows when you are reserving. Look forward to dining again next time we are in the city.
