January 31, 2015...Horrible experience at Casa de Mateo. 1st the surliest of waitresses sits us near
the front door that get very cold every time someone opens it to come in. We ask to move and she refuses. Maybe we should have insisted more like at
least 4 other groups did and whom where moved accordingly. The waitress never smiles or is in any way
courteous. While we are still figuring out what we want to eat, she stands at
our table and states that we’d better order now before it gets too busy (it’s
only 5:30!!). She then stands there
until we make a decision (several minutes).
She will not leave without an order.
The appetizers came and they were ok. We shared the mixed tasting
plate. The ceviche was good and so was
the guacamole. She never comes by for
wine order so I went to the bar to order the wine. The waitress comes to take away the appetizer
which we were obviously still not finished.
Asks it we are finished and we said no.
Seems to want us to hurry out of there. We are three mature women who
are not making noise or causing a raucous, so I have no idea why she is so
nasty with us. Another waitress comes to
take away the appetizer plate and she comes by with the mains. I ordered shrimps cooked in tequila with a
creamy tomato sauce. What I got was
overcooked shrimps that were so unbelievably salty (and I love salt! I tend to over salt everything!). I had to mask the shrimp saltiness with a
squeeze of lemon and hot sauce. The side
salad has no dressing, just a couple of leaves and 3 pieces of tomato and one
tiny piece of cucumber. I only slightly tasted the rice and I can safely say
that my husband makes a much better Mexican rice. One person had the appetizer quesadilla
filled with goat cheese, mexian cheese and fresh spinach. The other had the
shredded beef tacos and said that they were awful. We were so cold that we were all looking
forward to either coffee or tea but of course the waitress never came. So I asked the bartender again to help out. Only then did she show up and said “what do
you want” but not in a nice way. I asked
for the tea and coffee. She ignored the question about more milk, so again we
asked another waitress and the bartender.
This was getting so ridiculous. Either
she was not responsive or when she was she was nasty and rude. Of course she
was a no show when it was time to pay the bill. So we started putting on our
coats and she came round when (I assume)
another waitress said that we were leaving.
She told us that we had to pay on the other side. I wanted to pay with cash, which seemed to
put her out because she had to get change. She asked me if I wanted changed (I gave her $60
and the bill was $48, of course I wanted change). She asked me how much I wanted back. I said I wanted it all back. I gave her a $3 tip (and that was way too
much for such horrible, surly service).
I’ll never go back……. What a horrible experience!

Re: Café Vasco Da Gama

If you
happened to be in downtown Montreal,
a great place to experience Portuguese cuisine and hospitality is a small
picturesque café called Vasco da Gama located on Peel
Street right in the heart of Montreal.
Except if you go there only to have a coffee, you are out of luck.

Recently a
friend of mine and I went there after another friend of ours had recommended
the espresso. It was a lovely Friday afternoon and we saw a table for two at
the terrace that was vacant. However, to our surprise, few minutes after the
waitress took our order, a man who seemed had either managerial or ownership
authority, rushed towards us and mumbled something like “they could not serve
us coffee unless we ordered food”. I looked around and noticed the three ladies
sitting on a table next to us, who had indeed been served exactly that …three
cups of coffee. Well who could not have felt humiliated… right? We both
looked puzzled and what could be the real reason. We were both well dressed
with friendly manners and just wanted to have a quick coffee. I in fact, could
not really remember anyone ever to have refused me a service. Later I shared
this awful experience with another friend of mine, who coincidentally is half
Portuguese, who said that he does not go anymore at Vasco Da Gama since
last summer for exactly the same reason.
He added that their preferable clientele would be the one who spends
more money on food in order to increase their daily revenues. Perhaps tough
times, but is that the right way? They probably do have the right to refuse
service without prior notice; however, they should place a big sign right at
the door, so we and other coffee lovers are rightly informed. On their website
they advertise a great traditional food, which might be true, however, the big
question is: Would that food taste great if the unfortunate customer
stumbles upon some of their other prejudices that might or might not cross the line.
They should all indeed be included in the same sign right at the door.

Luckily, Vasco
Da Gama is not the only café in the vicinity, never mind the espresso. If
the readers would like to save themselves time and similar experiences, they
should try actually the café not far from Vasco Da Gama down on Peel
Street across Carlos and Pepes. It is
called Au Pain Dore. An excellent place to purchase traditional French
baguette or a great grilled sandwich, and on the second floor is a cozy French
café offering a magnificent view over St. Catherine Street.
The espresso is out of this world indeed, but most importantly the friendly and
polite service can make you feel at home.

I actually found the food was beautifully furnished and very attractive. I was motivated by the thought this restaurant would be great, but when I go there a little disappointed because it's not really like I imagined, but it looks like it is pretty good

We go whenever we want to take out a visiting friend and be assured of a great dining experience. The pasta dijonnaise is absolutely delicious and must be tried to be believed. The dal soup is splendid.
