J'ai tellement bien mangé, service impeccable de notre serveuse Chloé. Heureuse de trouver un endroit aussi festif & vivant à St-Lambert. La terrasse est magnifique, malgré les tables très collées les unes des autres, (peu d'intimité).

Malgré une réservation, nous avons attendu plus de 10 minutes pour être assis à l'intérieur alors qu'il n'y avait personne (les clients étaient tous sur la terrasse). Le service était très difficile. Nous n'avons jamais reçu les chips & salsa qu'on avait demandé en entrée. Le serveur est venu nous demander à 3 reprises si on voulait de la guacamole (on en voulait pas). Il a fini par nous apportez des nachos en même temps que notre repas alors qu'on n'en avait pas commandé. Je sais pas si c'est la barrière de langue ou un manque d'expérience. Durant l'attente, on a au moins pu profiter des jouets pour les enfants à l'extérieur & des livres pour enfants à l'intérieur.

Beau souper de groupe sur la terrasse. Excellent Margarita. Le menu était très restreint car nous étions un grand groupe. Malgré cela la nourriture était très bonne & le service rapide. Les prix sont très raisonnables. Merci à toute l'équipe, au service & en cuisine
