Une magnifique découverte! La fraîcheur des plats est remarquable, chaque ingrédient met en valeur la qualité du terroir. J'apprécie énormément que le restaurant collabore avec des entreprises locales. On sent que chaque assiette raconte une histoire de proximité & d'authenticité. Les portions sont parfaitement pensées, idéales pour partager sans excès, ce qui rend le moment encore plus convivial. C'est un vrai bonheur en bouche du début à la fin. Un endroit où l'on repart le coeur & l'estomac comblés!

Casavant earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand & I can see why. The poultry mousse stuffed morels are the kind of dish an inspector would notice & the tender hangar steak with whelks & fiddleheads was an utter delight, if a bit small as a portion size.

Special mention for Casavant's divine twist on the classic profiterole, replacing the cream with rhubarb & ricotta.

Slight hiccup with the paccheri neri (tube-shaped pasta made with black squid ink) served with lobster, pea leaves, & tomato bisque. The bisque needed something, maybe more garlic or seasoning to elevate the dish to where it belongs.

Bib Gourmands are awarded to restaurants that offer what's deemed as good value, & $135 for 2 before drinks, tax, & tip is not too shabby for elevated brasserie appetizers, main dishes, & a shared dessert featuring sought-after in-season ingredients.

Nice wine list too. They even have piquette.

Dress up a little if you want, but not too much. Service is elegant, warm, friendly.

Si vous passez par Montréal vaut le détour. Magnifique petit resto des plus sympathiques. Cuisine intelligente & créative où se mêlent des associations de saveurs innovantes. La carte des vins offre des vins vraiment en accord avec le resto : dignes de mention & qui, encore là, vaut le détour. Un incontournable montréalais pour quiconque aime la bonne cuisine & les bons vins surtout pour ceux qui savent les apprécier. J'ai hâte d'y retourner.

Went for lunch. Beautiful day, all the windows taken down for an inside/outside feel. Food was delicious. Great local ingredients. Servers well versed in the wines & dishes. It all added up to a nice atmosphere & quintessential Montreal experience in a restaurant that cares about what they're doing. A neighborhood gem.

Food & service was PERFECT

*unfortunately it was a very hot day & the a/c couldn't keep up so our dinner party was uncomfortably hot inside the restaurant.

Honestly very disappointed with my experience. The food was all extremely bland. Literally nothing i would order again. I was honestly shocked at how bad it was. The service was minimal. Ambiance is lovely.
