The food, service & drinks here were excellent. There were three in our party & we all had beer, cocktails & wine along with appetizers & entrees, & everyone was happy.

The staff were all very friendly & knowledgeable, & the duck, salmon & veal ravioli entrees were impeccable.

The atmosphere & ambiance was great & the place went from being dead to completely packed on less than an hour. I was in town for business & will definitely return when I am back in Montreal.

J'aime l'ambiance brasserie française, bien animée mais on peut tout de même avoir une conversation.
Le plat de doré poêlé était très bon & bien conseillé pour le choix du vin. Excellente crème glacée à la vanille & bons biscuits sablés.
J'aurais aimé qu'un.e serveur.e vienne nous demander si tout allait bien après avoir reçu nos plats. J'avais une fourchette avec les tiges croches, dont j'aurais volontiers changée. Mais personne n'est passé.
J'y retournerai encore, c'est certain !

It was the best French I had in Montreal. Duck confit, fish, lamb shank, & dessert were very delicious.
