Fodor's Expert Review Versa

Versa was among the first to revitalize the food scene in St-Roch. Chef Benoit Poliquin has altered the eatery's former twist on comfort food to fall more in line with upscale bistro cuisine. The poutine is unlike any other, featuring pulled pork and artisan cheddar. The interior is sophisticated yet fun, with clubby booths, a backlit bar, and retro disco ball. People chat and canoodle at the big refectory-style table in the middle of the restaurant. The after-work crowd sips lychee sangria and other clever cocktails at the Atlantic oyster bar before enjoying salmon tartare.
