Ikanos

Wonderful seafood options, guaranteed delicious meal. Went with their tasting experience which was 3 shared courses between two of us, plus a shared dessert. All meal items were delicious, with the dessert slightly underwhelming in comparison to the rest. It's an expensive restaurant, the tasting experience being 96 dollars a head, and one might question the cost when evaluating the simplicity of what's on the table in front of them. An entire sea bass and a pound of octopus and squid probably adds up. Either way expect to spend around $70-$100 for an average a la carte order. That being said, portion sizes are good and flavours are wonderful. I left overly full and satisfied. I do recommend the tasting experience if you can fork out 96 dollars. To note: the fish plate did not come presented like that, it was an entire sea bass on a shared platter which was portioned out onto our plates by our server. Best fish I've had all year easily. On the side was charred/grilled leeks, which were very good also.

We took the Montreal a la table course, the quantity is definitely not enough for two adult. Four courses with no breads or rice. Sea urchin doesn't taste fresh. Two scallops and one sea bass only. Dessert was actually the best of the night. Not worth for 75$/person. Service was slow at the beginning, took long to place the order. But it was ok after. Expected more at this price.

Not the first time at Ikanos, and the experience is still great. Service staff is excellent, and ambiance is very nice. Also not too uptight and nicely casual. The star here for me is the seafood platter. That plus a side and a starter is probably the best value. There is a 22oz steak to share that I haven't tried yet which could be great, but I feel like having steak at Ikanos is betraying the main reason to go there. A surf n turf is probably a really good idea though! The fish is also good. $71 for Seabass can be a bit off putting, but if it's indeed a fresh import, cooked in the wood oven, served full at the table deboned, I can see how you get to that price. Oyster black garlic mushrooms were good, but you can skip it. It's nice in moderation but don't need that big of a plate of it. It would be much nicer to have 2 smaller sides than a big side of that. Else, the Greek salad looked nice. Ikanos does (or did pre-covid) have very nice value for lunch though, so you could try that too. That is all! Congrats on reopening successfully!

Grossly overpriced! Our food was rushed and arrived to our table cold. The manager was aloof and should consider choosing a different career. The only saving grace was our server Josh. He did his best to salvage our experience. He was very pleasant,polite and tried his best to turn a bad situation to pleasant one.
