Le P'tit Broadway

Shawinigan

Bar Grill Tartare Salads

Review Summary

Le P'tit Broadway comes across as a warm, welcoming spot with friendly, attentive service and a casual bar vibe. Reviews praise generous portions and solid cooking, with dishes like seafood pasta and steak highlighted and the staff repeatedly described as professional and helpful. The overall sentiment is positive, but some experiences mention drawbacks such as overpriced or unexpectedly cold food, a shell in an egg, a mistaken order, and a beer that was undrinkable. Tipping practices are noted by a few patrons, who felt tips were added to the bill without clear communication. A few visitors report longer waits for food in a small kitchen, and there are mentions of the lack of on site restrooms and cleanliness concerns in a shared facility. The microbrewery element and the ability to watch sports are appreciated by many, making the place feel like a convivial spot for meals or breakfast with a welcoming staff.View restaurant profile

Pizza Poutine Sandwiches

Review Summary

Overall, diners describe Pizzeria Du Lac Enr as serving very good pizza with a crispy crust, flavorful tomato sauce, and plenty of cheese and toppings such as pepperoni. Poutine is noted as tasty and well priced, with cheese abundance, although the BBQ sauce can be overly salty and some feel the poutine does not live up to the pizza. Service is described as friendly and efficient at times, with lunch service and staff praised, but wait times can be long and a pizza order may take over an hour when the restaurant is busy. The dining experience can include pleasant extras such as live music and a lively atmosphere, and reservations are advised due to occasional crowds. Customers express intentions to return and consider booking ahead, and several reviews highlight the positive aspects of both food and staff despite occasional delays.View restaurant profile
