"Fresh off a months-long makeover, this Hochelaga point of pride now welcomes diners with renewed energy but the same warm, carefree atmosphere that has defined the restaurant since it opened in 2018. With the revamp came a new lunch offering: a tasting menu of six seasonal dishes served in three courses, plus the option to build your own meal à la carte — all in addition to the existing dinner service. Whatever time you go, expect chef-owner David Ollu’s ever-changing menu of inventive plates like lobster with zucchini, coconut milk, and hazelnuts, or beef-cranberry tartare with mole. Know before you go: Don’t overlook Hélicoptère’s siblings — adjoining coffee shop Hélico, neighboring wine bar Copilote, and nearby bakery Aube — three essential stops on any proper Hochelaga pilgrimage." - Valerie Silva
"Combining a culinary approach that feels like fine dining with an atmosphere that’s casual and carefree, Hélicoptère has been capturing the best of both worlds since its launch in 2018. Prepare for an ever-changing menu of vibrant and creative plates marrying seasonal ingredients and international flavors, courtesy of chefs David Ollu and Marianne Lafleur. Recent highlights include a duck dish with pureed carrots, sea buckthorn, black garlic, and sake, and another combining bluefin tuna, corn, aji rico, and shishito peppers. Don’t overlook adjoining coffee shop Hélico and nearby sibling bakery Aube, two essential stops on any Hochelaga pilgrimage." - Valerie Silva
"A seven course menu of small plates will be offered on New Year’s Eve at this chic Hochelaga-Maisonneuve hangout. The price is $128.25 per person and includes one beverage and gratuity. Call them directly to reserve." - Erinn Blicher
"Hélicoptère (and its around-the-corner café sibling Hélico) wins over locals and tourists time and time again thanks to its fresh, yet comforting takes on local gastronomy. Chef and owner David Ollu honed his skills at Montreal fine dining institution Bouillon Bilk and shows them off with a menu that marries seasonal ingredients with flavours plucked from around the world." - Valerie Silva
"Hochelaga’s Hélicoptere has wines at extremely good prices for takeout or delivery with a $5 fee. The food menu includes sandwiches, salads, tartare, some meal-for-two options, and brunch. There’s also hummus, bolognese, salami, and bread to-go."
