Two words for this place, JUST WOW!
Our first time here. Loved the ambiance, the food & the service by Juliette was totally awesome. She was super attentive, very helpful & polite. We will definitely be coming back again & again. There are not many places that give this kind of service anymore. & the cocktails & dessert were also very good. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Thank you, you made my bday celebration even better.
Souper avec une amie . Les cocktails sont excellents, les plats très goûteux & le service impeccable. Ce n'était pas la première fois & je ne suis jamais déçu. Tout y est très bon

Had been waiting for this location to re-open & they did not disappoint. The decor was beautiful, staff were super friendly & they made you will like a VIP the second you walk in.
Started off with a gin based cocktail which was fresh & well balanced. Then we shared some white wine as they had 50% off certain wines that night. We shared a few entrees, french onion soup bites, fried calamari, oysters, beef carpaccio & fresh bread. For the main meal i the Joue de beouf which was too die for. Very soft, flavorful & a great portion. The rest of my party really enjoyed their meals as well.
Was there to celebrate my birthday & i was very to happy to share this great restaurant with my family. Will definitely return & i highly recommend.
Les plats sont excellents, ils arrivent chauds à la table. Service professionnel. Ambiance agréable. Choix des cocktails impressionnants. Je recommande à 100 % !
The restaurant is next door to the hotel but also has its own door entrance. So you don't need to be a client of the hotel to eat there. The parking lot is big enough for you to never wonder where to park your car, & it has its own exit from the highway 15 South just after St Martin exit !! 😀 They are great, amazing service & food. *The only disappointment is the liquid egg they use for breakfast plates, but other dishes are fantastic. For birthdays or work gatherin (or any events really), it is the place to go. They have different space with different decors, but all sublime & chic. The Vip room will charm you for sure. It's practical & has a TV to share folders if it's for work or else. They have a tasty variety of cocktails, alcohol & other drinks ....oh Lord, so good ! ❤️ 😍 Can't wait to visit them again. Highly recommended it to. Tourists & the residents of Laval. You won't regret eating there & it's very affordable good prices.

Très bon restaurant! Nous avons adoré nos choix de cocktails, entrées & plats principaux. Goûteux, généreux & original! Nous y retournerons c'est certain!
Tout était sua coche. Cocktail délicieux, l'entrée de calmar est probablement la meilleure entrée que j"ai mangé de ma vie! Le repas, le service, l'ambiance tout était super.
Excellent restaurant! De l'entrée au dessert en passant par les cocktails & la qualité du service tout était parfait. Merci pour la belle soirée dans votre établissement.
