La Tablée - Mont-Tremblant

A very disappointing place. they bought the name and decor of another sugar shack that was delicious but has shut down. the current place is not a sugar shack but a restaurant in a building near the ski slopes with no atmosphere. staff are very friendly but food is rather mediocre and very expensive for what you get. i would not recommend it! it is a bit confusing that they use pictures of the old place on their website... there is no indication that this is in a new place, with a completely different ambiance, and provides food of a considerably lesser quality. does not deserve even one star

If I could give less than one star I would. It was horrible!! The only thing good was the pea soup and who can mess up pea soup!! The tortiere was over processed and over handled and tasted like baby puke. Even the eggs were over cooked. But the kicker was that, in a cabane à sucre they had TABLE SYRUP on the table and not real maple syrup!! Seriously??? The waitress admitted it should be real syrup Will never go back. PLUS there is ZERO handicap access and my guest had to navigate over ice covered steps to get down to the area! Soooo disappointed that this is in MY neighborhood!

Be prepared for loooong wait time. La Tablee Des Pionniers over sales their reservations, just like how airlines over sale their flight tickets. Plus there are not enough servers and cooks for the amount of guests they are trying to fit in. I don't know if it's their intention to over sale though. This means even if you have a pre-paid reservation made months ahead and you arrive before your reservation time, you may need to wait outside and/or in the lobby for almost 1 hour to get a table. Yes. This doesn't sound real. But it happened to us and some other people came around the same time as us. We came here super excited because we heard good things about this place from a friend, as well as all the 5 star reviews on Yelp. But I guess the good reviews were outdated? Or perhaps, it was just a really bad day of the restaurant. How about the food? It doesn't look close to the pictures people posted here from 2+years ago. We didn't have much appetite to eat after all the wait so I didn't take any pictures. I think the food is ok. But almost everything taste a bit too sweet for me. Especially the beans and the meat.

Tl;dr Super legit cabane a sucre experience! We actually mainly came here because we couldn't get a spot for Au Pied de Cochon's sugaring season, but wow! this place is super legit! Being dumb foreigners (Americans , we had no idea that we only need to travel about half a day's drive north from NYC to experience true culture shock. This establishment serves a traditional cabane a sucre meal (extravagant Quebecois shared meal in the winter heavy on meats . They have a mini hiking path actually behind the establishment, so since we were a bit early for the reservation we opted to take a little hike on the snowy path, which was actually pretty fun. It leads to a hill where there is a small shack displaying the giant cauldron that they used in the past to boil maple syrup. Now sufficiently hungry post hike, we headed back down to the restaurant. What was quite surprising (or maybe just to us? is that this place is actually very well populated with locals. We literally counted perhaps two tables during the whole evening (within our range of vision who appeared to be tourists. To be honest, we haven't ventured many times in our travels to Montreal outside of city limits, so it was quite surprising to find that most of the waitstaff have trouble speaking English. Our original waitress, upon realizing that we actually parler anglais, had to scramble and find her colleague who could speak English to be our waiter for the night. Hey, it's totally cool and I wish this kind of language diversity existed in the US!! The meal itself was super filling in the cabane tradition. They have three tiers of pricing (basically with increasing amounts of courses . We opted for the highest tier just because we are tourists lol and it came with enough food to feed a family of 4 (as expected . Packed about 3 aluminum containers at the end of the night, but we tried our best to finish the salad and all the vegetables to make up for the copious amount of meat haha. Great selection of locally pressed ciders to accompany the meal. They'll give you the check for you to pay at the register (which is quite typical at these cabanes we realized... , located in a gift shop area in the middle of the store where you can also buy things like local maple syrup. After paying, we realized that there were a lot of people hiking to a shack in the back and that there was actually a line out the door. Since we weren't sure what the line was for, we just got in line and realized that they were making tire sur la neige (maple taffy on snow!! . Quite literally there's a snow trench where they pour boiled maple syrup onto the syrup congeals into taffy upon hitting the ice, and then you can roll it onto a stick as a sticky candy. Super cool!! Definitely don't miss this the locals were very amused to see we were so excited by the experience. Overall, a very fun (and filling! cultural dinner! Highly recommended. Merci beaucoup!

We were away in tremblant for a ski weekend and thought it would be nice for our group to go have a nice sit down dinner here. When we arrived for our reservation time, we had to wait an extra half hour for our table! At this point after a hole day of skiing we were pretty tired. Once seated we were promptly described of the various foods we will be getting. Our group went for the most expensive menu with more food variations. Everything was very delicious however when we got our soup, it was luke warm and we waited for over half an hour for our last course which was dessert to get to us. There was a table across from us that sat down half an hour after us which received their dessert first and when we received ours it was like just enough for everyone to take one bite out of everything. I feel like they ran out of food or something cause I think it was one of the last seatings. Other than the few things I pointed out the service was decent and maybe next time would go in an earlier seating for by the team we received all our food we were ready to go to bed.
