Matador rewrites the rules of wine and sake in QC

July 31 2025

Modern tapas, playful pours, and a moody ambiance make this new dining spot a dramatic detour worth taking

A dramatic glow awaits those who enter Matador in the evening.

The newest bar and dining destination in the Scout area transforms after dark into a striking space where deep shadows meet warm orange lighting, casting an amber halo over intimate tables and a commanding bar that beckons guests to settle in with a drink—or a few.

Matador is not your typical wine bar. There are no stiff sommeliers or hushed tones here. Instead, this new concept from the team behind ReCraft and Bar Flora invites diners to loosen up and explore its boldly curated menu of New World wines and artisanal sake alongside modern tapas that are equal parts Japanese and Spanish in spirit.
