This French restaurant that I happened to choose when arriving in Montreal. I would like to say that their service was truly excellent. Thank you very much. It had a great atmosphere. The Agnolotti pasta tasted great. I would recommend the apricot cake instead. It has a very nice texture.

This restaurant was really great, it was fancy & high end, but the food was excellent & not in tiny portions like most other high end restaurants. It was the perfect amount of experimental but flavourful, they didn't have any crazy odd food pairings, so its safe for people who don't have an adventurous palette, but also has some interesting dishes to try if you're daring.
