Currently sitting at the bar with these delicious oysters plate for the happy hour (35$/12 oysters) & needed to leave a comment as the service here is great, especially the guy buzzcut hair bartender who make the BEST espresso martinis.
Place is very cute as well.
100% recommend.
Je suis venu avec une amie pour boire un verre & manger un burger, & franchement l'endroit est super sympa, très chill, parfait pour se détendre. L'ambiance est agréable, le service cool, & la cuisine vraiment bonne. On s'est régalés ! Je recommande sans hésiter.
Wow!!!! Notre serveur Ty était tellement parfait, excellent service, nous a recommandé les meilleures choses sur le menu avec le pairing de vin incroyable!
Je serai de retour, merci beaucoup Ty tu es un vrai connaisseur !
Service un peu long mais sympathique. Endroit très populaire. Le vin que lon a bu etais excellent. Je le recommande. L'été la terasse est très agreable
J'y suis allé le 2024-08-28 & j'ai adoré mon expérience. J'ai pris le burger & il était vraiment excellent. Le service était bon & j'ai aimé les bières que j'ai consommées. J'ai aimé l'ambiance & la décoration à l'intérieur. Je recommande fortement l'endroit!
Absolutely spectacular! The staff is so welcoming, kind & knowledgeable without being cloying. Then variety of beers is terrific & some delicious wines. The real highlight was the food - just WOW. Delicious! Perfect balance. Highly recommend. Order everything on the menu!
Good place, very crowded at the time of going. The jazz fest was on, so not their fault if the restaurant was literally full. Just an ok service, a bit rushed. Food is good but not incredible. Would still recommend for a quick bite with friends before going out to see a show somewhere, since they're located not far away from the quartier des spectacles. Had a good time with friends there.

Everyone over there are so lovely! From the bartender to the waiter/tress, the food is amazing & so does the cocktail 🥂 Lucky we are that we can go to a 3 in 1 places in Montreal (good service, food & drinks) I recommend this place to everyone!
The food was outstanding & words cannot describe how delicious the halibut crudo was! Prices are on par with other restaurants & the food & drinks were amazing. The tabbouleh salad & carrots were stand out as well - really well balanced dishes. The atmosphere was fun & the service was great. Highly recommend!

The food was absolutely delicious & well thought out. My friend & I ordered several plates to share. Highly recommend the halibut crudo; the lime zest & coconut milk was an amazing burst of flavours! The falafel was perfectly cooked & reminded me so much of my childhood. The star for me was the fattoush/taboule dish. It was topped with pomegranate seeds & crunchy pita chips. All the dishes had the perfect balance of textures & flavours. I loved the decor of the restaurant, too. I highly recommend this place!
Une poutine pas mauvaise & un bon choix de bière je recommande. En revanche la hauteur des tables n est pas en accord avec la hauteur des tabourets (tabourets trop haut ou table trop basse). Si comme moi vous avez l'habitude de vous accouder en buvant votre bière vous en sortirez avec un mal de dos.
