The food was unique & absolutely delicious. I ordered the calamari expecting the usual deep-fried version, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were light, tender, & practically melted in my mouth-never rubbery or tough.

The lobster roll was terrific as well. It was filled with fresh lobster & wasn't smothered in mayonnaise, allowing the flavor of the lobster to really shine.

The service was excellent, & the atmosphere was warm & inviting. I'll definitely be back!

De sortie au théâtre Lionel-Groulx, le restaurant est tout à côté. Un coup de coeur pour l'entrée de calmars frits, apprêtée avec recherche, cuisson du boeuf parfaite! Service courtois & sympathique. Nous reviendrons!

C'était délicieux! Chaque bouchée était un orgasme en bouche, nous avons eu droit à des crevettes grillées gratuitement pour l'attente étant donné le niveau d'achalandage & même le prix était très raisonnable considérant la qualité de la nourriture, je le recommande
