Nous sommes un groupe de 10 à 12 personnes qui faisons notre diner de noël année après année à ce restaurant. Un service toujours impécable avec une nourriture délicieuse. Je le recommande pour un tête à tête ou en groupe. On se trompe pas.
Nous sommes allée sur l'heure du lunch pour un dîner d'affaires.
Bon service, bonne qualité de nourriture, je recommande soit entre ami, amoureux ou pour affaire!
Food was good. Menu pricing for the table d'hote was very fair. Service was excellent. My only criticism is that even with a reservation, I was first given a table in a part of the restaurant that is more like an annex to the establishment, & which features very low lounge chairs that are uncomfortable for dining, & this despite the fact that there were numerous other tables available in nicer & more comfortable sections of the restaurant. The server gladly changed my table, but I think I should have been given a better table from the outset.
Le restaurant est grand avec différentes salles à divers niveau ce qui permet à un groupe de 8 personnes de ne pas être dans le bruit & de pouvoir tenir une discussion ; la nourriture & le service sont bons - tout le monde fut enchantés.
