In addition to being the emblematic animal of Quebec, we were so called "the Caribou" during our visits to France, that it was obvious to borrow the name from this large deer.
French expatriates for several years and very attached to our gourmet roots, it is in Quebec that we decided to drop our bags, and it is a pleasure for us to share with you our love of cooking by combining gourmet seasonal ingredients, our French roots and Quebec influences, in an atmosphere that invites relaxation and conviviality ...

Malheureusement, le goût n'était pas au RV. Bouffe plutôt très ordinaire. Même accompagnement en entrée qu'en repas principal... Grande déception pour nous.
Point à noter, rare resto qui accepte les réservations pour le brunch les we.
Malgré l'affluence du samedi matin, nous avons profité de notre repas sans se faire presser. À la fin du repas, la salle à manger était pleine & malgré la file d'attente à la porte, on nous a quand même réchauffé le café a quelques reprise avec le sourire.
Nourriture de bonne qualité & savoureuse.
Cafés & mimosas abordables & délicieux.
Les tables pour 2 près de l'allée des toilettes étaient beaucoup trop rapprochées l'une de l'autre, ça rendait l'endroit bruyant & inconfortable malheureusement...Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la nourriture & le service.
Nous étions trois dans le cadre de mtl a table & franchement tous ce que nous avons commandé était délicieux du yack au poisson & risotto & j'en passe c'était succulent & nous en avons fait des resto excellent service souriant & avenant merci
We had a good evening. Just the service was a bit slow to start - we waited too long for the first course to arrive while the people who came after us already had theirs.
Thank you

The hostess, took the coats from the diners before us but did not offer to do so for us & upon us asking, just pointed to the hangers. We were then sat at a high table, the only dinner party at a high table when everyone else was sat at regular tables. The high table was also the prolongation of the bar, meaning one of us constantly had the wait staff passing behind her closely.
When ordering, the waitress did not know the menu very well & on two occasions we had to google the menu items with her. This was even though the menu selection was small (13 items of food, including starters & desserts).
Finally, when leaving, we patiently waited until the hostess could clear the way to the coats as they were behind the hostess desk, & when she did, she made us feel like we were in the way as if we shouldn't be getting our coats.
The food was ok but not breathtaking, you could taste the ingredients were fresh but the seasoning was light.
