My wife & I were looking at the menu outside, when Andrew, our soon to be host & waiter pulled us in with his smile & friendly nature. After giving us recommendations we finally ordered. The food was excellent (especially the deconstructed cheesecake) however, what truly made the experience unforgettable was Andrew, who delivered AAA service, something I genuinely haven't experienced since before COVID. He was attentive without being overbearing, genuinely friendly, effortlessly funny, & clearly passionate about what he does. He knew the menu like the back of his hand, offered thoughtful recommendations, & made us feel like we were the most important table in the room. Andrew turned a great meal into an outstanding dining experience. It's rare these days to find service that feels this personal & this polished at the same time. We'll definitely be back.

Oh boy. N'y allez surtout pas pour déjeuner !! C'est long & c'est très très ordinaire. 2 cafés & 2 sandwiches déjeuner, 65$.... Si au moins les assiettes étaient un peu plus jolies.... c'est bourré de patates rôties. Presque pas de places pour couper son sandwich. Ceux qui font le service sont par contre très gentils. Dommage !!!

We were a party of 4 adults & 3 kids & had an excellent experience there. The food was extra ordinary. Had the best Gnocchi ever. The portion size was great.
The staff were super friendly. They were interacting with all the customers.
We got a lot of information about the region & specifically about Moose🫎, which was really great.
It was raining cats & dogs & the staff were willing to come with us to our car park with umbrella.
Enjoyed our afternoon there. Highly recommend the place.
