Very creative and yummy food. We sat at the bar: warning, the seats are wobbly. The bar tender was very friendly and engaging and we appreciated his help with our food selections. This restaurant is definitely loud and a place where people love to gather. Portions are generous and we absolutely ate too much! Highly recommend Limousine.

The restaurant is beautiful and so is the hotel lobby and bathrooms. 1920 Art Deco style but everything is brand new. Staff are lovely. We had the MTL à Table menu which was great so we don't know what the regular menu is like but it must be just as good.

An amazing experience. The food is creatively prepared and presented. A mixture of textures and flavors. The focaccia bread was warm and delicious follwed by the lobster appetizer consisting of three different presentations. The scallop main course also had calamari and lemon rice. A truly special dinner.
