Always have great service with freshly prepared food arriving within a very short wait. It's incredible to have a consistently delicious breakfast at such a reasonable price. Other positives are that this restaurant is really well located & there's plenty of parking.
Have been going there for 25 years , usually it is very good .. but when you things are not good & you say something , they don't like it .. at the prices they charge, you want things perfect .. you reserve a table that you wanted & when calling the hostess says'yes no problem'
you get there & with your out of town guests .. they say oh the table is reserved & it was not for us as asked & confirmed, after we went In , they said 'you would have to leave when the other people come in !' Mentioned that was not right as the people were out of town & planning to stay a couple of hours' Manager came & shrugged off what I asked for & walked away .. I said I would check with the Out of Towners .. it was like hey go somewhere else with your guests , how rude !
They offered a table near the bar , the guests & myself , the reason we wanted the upper area , is to avoid all the noise at the bar , & it is a little more private . You cannot hear yourself talk ..& people going around the table back & forth ..
Very Disappointed , the guests apparently have been there before have had some issues , I was not with them ..I have brought a lot of customers there & business …
This place used to be pretty good: fair price, decent food, & almost always excellent services. But now the menu has been shortened & pared down to a monotonous variety & at the same time they have raised the price, while the food remains ok but never truly impressive. Just not as eager to go there anymore as before. Most sincere advice: update your menu from time to time & try to bring it up a notch on the food quality---just to bring it up above the mediocre level.
We have been going to this brasserie every New Years Eve for 4 years! The food is delicious, the atmosphere is fun & family-oriented, & the waitresses give excellent service with a smile every time. In addition, the prices are right & the music makes you want to get up & dance! I truly recommend this place if you want a fun & pleasant evening! Michael & Mattia, Pierrefonds, QC
