Appetizers were delicious but main dish - the octopus- was ordinary. The waiter ruined the evening when he asked us why we didn't leave a tip. We just finished paying by card & intended to leave a cash tip on the table when the waiter questioned us about the service & wondered why we didn't tip. That's just bad taste; he clearly lacks experience.

Bonjour!
Nous sommes allées hier soir pour fêter plusieurs évènement :) après avoir attendu quelques mois & visionné les belles images sur facebook, nous avons pris, les 2 couples, le Tomahawk. Nous avons été très déçus, la viande était vraiment trop cuite, surtout que la serveuse nous dit que ce sera médium saignant c'était plutôt médium bien cuit ! & l'assiette au complet n'avait pas de goût ! Manque vraiment d'assaisonnement , surtout pour $120 l'assiette oufffff un peu exagéré ! Tout ce dont on nous a offert est un dessert café pour compenser! Je prend un café moka car je voulais de la crème fouetter, comme inscrit dans le menu, quand mon café arrive la fille me dit qu'il n'y a plus de crème fouetter! Oufff pas fort 4 minutes plus tard elle revient en me disant quelle en a trouvé ! Woww vraiment ordinaire pour un souper qui nous a couté $250 chaque couple !
Vraiment dommage pour notre première visite :(

Nous sommes allés manger avec des copines, & tout était au top, accueil avec vérification des passeports vaccinales, service impeccable avec le sourire, assiettes & bouffe chaude, atmosphère & décor superbe. Je vais devenir une cliente hebdomadaire, c'est certain. Carmen
