About

Foiegwa presents an unapologetic interpretation of French culinary traditions fused with high-calorie comfort food staples. The menu centers on classic bistro fare, characterized by rich preparations like signature foie gras, escargot, and steak frites. A standout feature remains the heavy, indulgent burger that balances traditional butchery with an elevated, buttery decadence. The interior environment channels the aesthetic of a classic Parisian haunt, utilizing a narrow, packed layout that emphasizes intimacy and constant movement. Mirrors and brass accents define the space, creating a dense, high-energy atmosphere that rejects minimalism in favor of maximalist flavor profiles. Guests encounter a straightforward approach to execution where ingredient quality dictates the composition of every dish. This establishment prioritizes consistent, robust portions that favor saturation and classic technique over modern, light-handed culinary trends.

From start to finish, our dining experience was exceptional. Service was attentive, friendly, & prompt. The cocktail & dinner menu featured unique & delightful recipes. & the food was top-notch, arriving hot & full of flavour. I am already looking forward to my next visit.

Bonne nourriture, un peu overpriced pour des oeuf . Ce qui est un peu moins bon c est leur systeme d attribution des tables qui est horrible & l attitude désagréable de leur gérante...en arrivant j etait 3e dans la file d attente , cool je me dit je vais pas attendre longtemps je me dit ...mais non une quarantaine de personnes viennent se rajouter dans la file apres moi & elles passent tous, sans exception, devant moi car ils attribuent les tables en fonction du nombre de personnes, c est a dire si tu est juste 2 & qu il y a une table de 4 qui se liberent ils vont faire passer qqun d autre meme si ca fait longtemps que tu attends... on a attendu pres de une heure enfin de compte & on a ete acceuillie par une gerante super desagreable qu on entendait apres sacrer apres des enlmployés .Je n y retournerais pas pour cette raison .Je tiens a mentionner que les autres serveurs ont ete tous très gentils & serviables. Quand on choisi de payer 50$/pers pour une assiete avec 1 oeuf & un jus on s attends a une meilleur réception que celle d un mc do

I had the tasting menu, the cesear salad was just lettuce with parmesan & bits of bacon, a little sauce or something would have been nice, truffle spaghetti was good but definitely not as good as before. The truffle taste was barely there, & the dessert , chocolate mousse was not edible , wayyyyy to sweet. Also my friend had the onion soup as an entree, it was way too liquid. This used to be one of my favourite restaurants, but the food quality is definitely not there anymore.

Maybe it was the choices we made, but we were a bit unimpressed with the "fried chicken" & the onion soup. The gravlax & fries were great though!

Tres bruyant mais tres bon accueil! Nous avons tres bien mange; accompagnement minimum (pas de legumes ou pates ou autre); certains plats sur le menu non disponibles. Temperature du vin pas assez froid
