Review Summary

Fromagerie Victoria comes across as a family friendly place that many reviewers treat as a reliable option for breakfast and lunch, with fast, friendly service and a pleasant ambiance. Patron comments repeatedly mention the staff being attentive and the atmosphere welcoming, and some dishes such as the Italian poutine and the poutine aux p'tits pop stand out as positives. However, experiences vary: several critiques point to undercooked fries, cold sauce, or cheese that is too large for a poutine, and a few visits describe cleanliness or presentation as lacking. A few items are noted as not worth the price, and at least one dish with processed chicken drew disappointment, while others praise the burgers and classic fries. Overall, Fromagerie Victoria appears to be a solid casual stop for groups, offering a mix of well-liked menu items and some inconsistencies across visits.View restaurant profile

L'Assomption

Casse-Croute (Snack Bar)Bistro

Review Summary

Maître Edgar offers an excellent dining experience with delicious, seasonally inspired dishes and a notably varied cocktail program, paired with consistently impeccable service from a friendly team that helps create a welcoming, convivial vibe. While the terrace is pleasant and the center of town setting in L'Assomption adds charm, the interior can be quite loud, making the outdoor space a preferred option for some visits. A few practical touches could be improved, such as a mispositioned coat rack that intrudes on the seating area. On the menu, signature items like the lobster and shrimp guedille and a well-prepared cote de boeuf with creamy aligot stand out, while some plates such as fish and chips or Cornish chicken with too much sauce can be uneven, underscoring that there is room for refinement. Overall, Maître Edgar leaves a strong impression with hospitality, quality ingredients, and the option to enjoy a memorable poutine maison, earning frequent recommendations and repeat visits.View restaurant profile
