Fantastic meal, amazing service & cozy atmosphere. You have to try Nicole's bourguignon. It was the best we ever had. We will be back!

Eh boboy! Belle endroit pour être sur les hautes m'as te dire! Je vous implore de réparer la porte qui est toujours ouverte. C'était une expérience unique de manger avec mon manteau d'hiver par contre ça c'est sure- ça faisait Igloofest 🤣75$ pour une fondue avec 3 tranches de charcuterie - plus décevant que ton ex. Les employés sont gentils mais à ce prix la ….boff.

I wandered the streets of Montreal looking for a place to eat but nothing was grabbing my attention. I was about to return to my lodging when I stumbled upon this place & thought I would give it a try. What a fortuitous decision! I had one of the best meals of my life but more than that the conversation with Adam the bartender, Andrew the chef, & patrons that was so enjoyable, so engaging that I will absolutely come back the next time I'm in Montreal. I didn't have a main course but two appetizers, grilled octopus & foie gras which were heavenly. Then Andrew bought out the dessert in the photo I've included. If my life had ended right then & there it would be complete! I truly cannot recommend this charming place more highly! I know you will feel the same.

My husband & I stopped in after walking by & seeing the cheese fondue sign. I have visited Switzerland a few times & this was excellent. The wine availability to pair was wonderful too! I was a little worried after reading a negative review about the fondue but I am so glad we tried ourselves. I haven't had something so good since Switzerland. I'll def be back!

Une fondue désastreuse, des prix gonflés, jamais vu une fondue avec aussi peu de fromage. Une fine couche de fromage dans le fond de la marmite & ils appellent ça une fondue LOL! Ni bon ni chaleureux. Poulet à 40$ servi sans accompagnement. Aberrant ! Dans le quartier il y a mieux & de loin, je ne conseille vraiment pas !

Très belle découverte en ce samedi après-midi alors que nous cherchions un endroit pour prendre un bon café & une petite bouchée. Accueil super, bel ambiance, notre serveur Adam était tellement aimable. Un jeune grec qui est arrivé à Montréal au cours des 6 derniers mois & qui a rapidement appris le français. Le resto était plein & tant le café que la nourriture vraiment délicieux. On y retournera certainement. Merci encore Adam pour ton service impeccable & attentionné!
