Excellent food, cocktails & coffee. Have gluten free bread. Beef tartare is excellent.

Bel endroit, bon service, belle ambiance. Par contre je trouve cela gourmand de leur part de mettre un minimum suggéré de 18% de pourboire sur le terminal. Une pression sociale incommodante à mon sens comme client dans un contexte où le coût de la vie est en hausse.

***
J'ai modifié la cote suite à l'argument valide du propriétaire comme quoi une seule étoile représentait mal l'expérience dans son ensemble. Je reste toutefois ferme sur l'idée que le minimum de pourboire proposé devrait être de 15% pour ne pas induire de pression sociale.
