Reviewers describe a mix of strong positives and some service hiccups at Les soeurs Jack's. A post-funeral reception featured a very good buffet and friendly service, though coffee was not included in the initial understanding; the hostess offered to fetch a coffee for the widow and said it would be paid out of pocket, even though the coffee was included in the package. Technical difficulties were acknowledged as possible. However the review notes a questionable moment in after-sales service where the response to constructive feedback came across as defensive and arrogant and no apology was offered. For a wedding the choice to trust the restaurant paid off with a delicious meal of chicken and beef skewers that guests enjoyed, and staff were described as very kind. Communication with the owner was noted as complex and allergen details had to be provided at the last minute. Invoicing raised questions, as no official invoice was issued but a Canva style document was used instead.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Reviews of Casse-croute Chez Archie are overwhelmingly positive, highlighting the poutine as the star with generous portions, rich cheese, and house-made fries that taste like real potatoes, along with distinctive sauces such as pepper and brown that earn praise. The meals are described as fresh, well prepared, and reasonably priced, with portions often described as huge or overflowing. Service is repeatedly praised for being friendly, attentive, and welcoming, though a few comments point to occasional kitchen delays that result in longer waits.

There are isolated comments about a dish not being as expected due to delivery issues with cheese, and one mention of a snack that may have been reheated, but these criticisms are not representative of the overall experience.View restaurant profile
