The food was mostly really good. Fish of the moment was way overpriced compared to the rest of the menu (for a cheap fish). Service was mediocre at best.

The place is really beautiful & fancy but a bit dark. The food is overpriced for the taste, it wasn't amazing at all & the menu is a bit empty, more choices would be appreciated. The fries were too salty, I couldn't finish them. The staff was okay. The lady at reception was such a sweetheart.
Nous sommes arrivés là par hasard pour souper, très belle découverte. Service, cuisine & ambiance : rien à dire. Suite à la lecture des avis sur Google, je tenais à donner mon avis : 1) Oui c'est chiant de ne pas avoir les vins demandés qui sont à la carte. Cependant cela arrive qu'ils ne soient pas disponibles, depuis le COVID, c'est parfois compliqué d'avoir certains vins. ( Je ne parle pas forcément d'importation privée. ) ( PS : Oui je parle de la SAQ ). 2) Comparer certains plats à ceux de la Belle Province ou du Tim Hortons... C'est un non. 3) Lisez correctement le menu, pour exemple il est écrit sur ce dernier : « Magret de canard rôti », il n'y a pas pas marqué Magret de canard ENTIER. En bref : soyez indulgents sur les ouvertures de restaurants, bars, cafés etc.. ( LE MONDE DE LA RESTAU AU COMPLET AU FINAL ). Cela prend du temps de mettre une équipe en place, de trouver le bon menu qui correspond à l'établissement & j'en passe... PS : Surtout si vous n'avez pas de papilles gustatives digne de ce nom. PPS : Merci Nikita
Food was good/okay. Service was terrible. Food was slow to arrive with a total of 4 other people in the entire restaurant & no real evidence of lots of take out orders taking staff attention. When we expressed our frustration to the management after it remained slow following multiple reminders to staff, only then did it arrive (after 5 minutes). On departing & expressing our frustration for the service (for what is supposed to be a higher class restaurant), the waiter hovered over my elderly mother making me feel like he was intimidating her into giving him a tip (she was holding the payment screen at the tip screen). He did not move after I asked him to give us privacy. I cannot recommend this restaurant, especially considering that I got much better service & perhaps even food at the Tim Hortons down the street. Patron intimidation, whether intentional or not, is not acceptable.
Un des plus beau restaurant en ville. Un service superbe, les hôtes & les serveurs sont proactifs & à l'affût à chaque question. Le repas étais copieux, franchement une belle expérience.

The food was amazing, well cooked & served well. The service was amazing & we had a great time there. The ambience is very good too, some unique decor. They also have some vegetarian & vegan dishes. The smoked Oyster mushrooms had a unique flavor to it.
Food was great! Really good mocktail, too. Service was a bit disjointed & it was hard to find someone to get our bill, but it was a really nice café. I'd definitely go again

The decor is incredible & very well put together. The wine list is lacking at the moment but they said they are in transition to a new list. Food wise, I took a salmon tartare but couldn't taste the salmon over the sauce. The duck was cooked beautifully & the accompanying mushroom mash was great. The price was reasonable, I will go again & taste different appetizers.
Service très lent & bcp d attente entre les plats. Plus de 4 vins rouge présent sur la carte étaient en rupture de stock. J avais pris le magret de canard & je me suis retrouvé avec une lamelle de magret. A 38$ c'est inadmissible. Bref le cadre est magnifique mais c'est tout. On va mettre ça sur des ratés d'ouverture mais comme il est ouvert déjà depuis 5 ou 6 mois j'ai du mal à le croire.... si une amélioration drastiques se fait pas il est à éviter.
Cadre agréable & neuf. Restaurant ouvert depuis 5 mois donc très jeune. On a dû demander 3 fois pour de l eau & du vin. 3 types de vin non disponible. Place à amélioration.
