Éclipse Restaurant and Bar - Montreal, Quebec

We came to celebrate my friends birthday. Service was bad. The waiter was unprepared and clueless, he never even told us his name. They were out of stock of a lot of things: chicken wings, flatbread, mint, the list went on as the night did. One drink had hair in ... it, another alcoholic beverage was prepared with no alcohol. The food was ok, most complaints were about the lack of seasoning & the way the drinks were charged was weird. They charge you separately for the alcohol and another charge for the juice. Some in the group were even billed for alcohol, the juice & “martini” even though the drinks were the same. We made the best of the experience but I swear the whole staff was high. The restaurant is really cute & the bartender tried to make up for the experience by giving us a free shot. The other star is for her. 1/10 do not recommend. Read more

I can't believe this place is rated under 4 stars, because we couldn't have had a better experience here. The good was fresh and delicious and of great quality. The parmasean french fries were a highlight! We had great service too. I don't think that it is overpriced, but maybe ... I'm unfamiliar with usual Missouri prices? Regardless, it was of quality we would expect from a nicer hotel restaurant, obviously not a Ritz, but it wasn't priced that way either. I would definitely recommend coming here if you are staying at the Moonrise or seeing a show at the Pageant. Read more

Me and my friend got salmon meals and the only thing had taste was the salmon which was perfect. Services and staff where excellent but the drinks were not.

I would like to rate this with a negative number. We went to their Thanksgiving buffet. 4 years ago (when they were under old management) we had TG dinner there and it was very good. From the outset I had concerns. Their reservation app was difficult to navigate and I ... got a call back from the management. I told them that I was looking for a time window within the open hours of noon to five and was told that they weren’t making timed reservations. I was also told that they expected payment in advance, but then said that they would reserve us, and we could pay at the bar. We were assured that they could adequately serve all who showed up, regardless of the time. We were met in the bar by a guy dressed in a leprechaun outfit who seemed to be in charge. Unfortunately I did pay at the bar, before looking at the buffet, so I didn’t know until entering the buffet that they had no turkey left (it was 3:30), only prime rib. The prime rib was almost raw, and I say that as someone who prefers very rare beef. (See photo.). It was almost unchewable. The other dishes on the buffet were all terrible and weren’t hot. Brussels sprouts were cooked into oblivion. Salad dressings and other sauces/gravy weren’t labeled. There were almost no people dining and there were employees drifting in and out, but we struggled to get anybody to take an order for wine. While we were eating dessert, the leprechaun turned up to deliver us a glass of not-iced water. The same employee came around to sell us a Christmas event, menu in hand. This whole experience was like a huge spoof, but much too expensive at $65 each plus tax. Also, no steak knives for the beef, paper cups for coffee that looked like weak tea. Easily one of the top 5 worst restaurant meals ever. Read more

Nice restaurant serving African and Caribbean fusion food. The chef is Haitian and definitely put a twist on the menu I knew over 6 years ago. I had the fried crab legs and mack and cheese with duck confit and these appetizers were fresh and flavorful. The cornbread was tasty ... but on the drier side. The bartender made me a Paloma cocktail and it was tasty (but too strong for me). Every staff member was welcoming and very nice at the exception of the host who was on a personal phone call when I got there and told me to go to the bar. She did not seem interested in the customers, but in her shift ending soon. The restaurant is not open 24hrs . It opens from 6:30 to 11:00 AM for breakfast and re-opens for dinner from 5:00 to 9:00 PM. Read more
