A propos de la nourriture on a commandé des plats qui étaient très bon sauf que les frites étaient immangeables pour tout le monde.
A propos des prix ils sont trop cher à comparer avec d'autres endroits similaires
Nos repas étaient délicieux mais la musique était vraiment trop forte. Moi & mon ami nous avions de la difficulté à s'entendre. Par ailleurs, c'était une musique plus approprié pour danser en soirée que pour déguster un bon repas. Je vais donner une autre chance à ce restaurant car je l'aime beaucoup, mais si la musique bruyant continue, je n'y irai plus.
All the reviews from mother's day on Google are right, horrible staff & service, many families getting up 2+ hours after being sat down because they were not getting served. Food missing items & no one to inquire with because they were seriously understaffed
We have been coming to this restaurant for weekend brunch whenever we're in Montréal for over 7 years now. The restaurant is always busy on the weekend which I love. Plenty of great energy & laughs in the air. The food & coffee is always excellent. They also have bottomless mimosas!

INSANELY overpriced we were shocked!
We were there for lunch & my son ordered the escargots, priced at $28 for an "entrée" - when it arrived, an hour later, they were clearly canned escargots, not even a full can at that, & completely tasteless. Served with 2 slivers of toasted bread.
Service was the worst ever - it took over an hour to get our order & we had to chase down the waiter for some water, & later on the bill.
The bathroom was disgusting!!!
I used to be a long-time customer of the original Duc de Lorraine, an elegant & wonderful patisserie with a lovely café. The current "Duc" is a complete embarrassment to our beautiful city known for its great restaurants, cafés, & patisseries.
Wow, the bakery doesn't make it seem like the pastry is a waste of one's time because, really, it's really great & all the ingredients are in a pretty good place. The only thing I would say is if you're looking for a place where you can buy a pie then this is all you'll get.
