?A standout French dining experience in Old Montréal. Having dined here twice during our stay, both evenings were flawless.
?Service & Hospitality: The staff were exceptionally attentive & warm throughout. The evening host set a wonderful tone every night, greeting every guest with a genuine, welcoming smile.
?The Food: The duck confit was executed to perfection-rich, savory, & deeply flavorful. For dessert, the hazelnut cake was nothing short of amazing & a complete highlight of the meal.
?An absolute gem of a restaurant. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Montréal!

The menu is genuinely delicious. I ordered the duck & was very happy with my choice. The prices are above average, but the quality of the food & the overall menu definitely justify the cost. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a great dining experience.

I love, love the food. The service was excellent. We were seated in a very nice spot, the drinks were superb, & I even got a free drink because of a simple delay in the bar. The waitress was very nice & helpful. I will definitely recommend this place.

Beyond excellent!! Great atmosphere & extremely friendly staff. The food was superb - highly recommend the profiteroles for dessert. There is a tasting menu or you can order traditionally. Loved everything 10/10!

We went here at the recommend of our friendly. We opted for the tasting.

The best dishes that we would order again were mushroom ravioli & duck breast. Everything else was quite disappointing. Lobster bisque. Lobster vanilla. Foie gras. Etc. overall the dishes were slightly under seasoned & under flavored. lacked the richness & nuance of French cuisine. Overall food was three stars.

The quantity of food was adequate. If you are a normal size male then you probably won't come out full. Though they serve the same dishes from their à la carte menu the portions are quite a bit smaller. The number of course doesn't make up for the portion size. So just heads up.

Service was attentive & friendly. Definitely five stars there.
