Located in the heart of Montreal, Osteria MKt is set back off St Catherine’s St. Extremely welcoming was the reception staff and made everyone feel welcome and comfortable. Seating is well spaced as to adhere to COVID regulations and not too noisy. The menu is...not overly large which is a relief, to me meaning they can spend more time doing everything right. To start we had the grilled octopus and oysters. The only thing to be said about that is PERFECT. The octopus was tender and not over cooked, well seasoned and plated beautifully. The oysters were fresh and extremely tasty. The main course consisted of the gnocchi and fish plate ( baked cod). The gnocchi absolutely blew me away. Large and bursting with flavour, stuffed with mushrooms and hot. The accompanying sauce was something that was talked about in great detail. I’ve never had something quite like it to be ho eat and I will certainly be returning for it in the near future. The fish was perfectly baked to perfection and spiced on point. Flaky and juicy, it was the perfect portion and must be a staple of the menu. I must say, I was a little confused by the musical choices, it was not inappropriate but just didn’t really fit the vibe. I think an aesthetic Lofi choice would have been better suited but it really didn’t take away from the experience at all. Our waiter was nothing short of perfect the entire night. Extremely knowledgeable with the menu and the items on it he suggested parings as well as wine choices. The plate sizes were enough where we could not order dessert. One of the group members has food allergies and the staff ensure they were safe and they accommodated accordingly. This restaurant for me is a must visit while in the city of Montreal. I will be returning very soon! Thank you to the staff of Osteria MKT for a great night.
