Walked in here during the Francos de MTL music festival so they were pretty busy. Still found a table for us quickly though. The food was pretty good, we got the margherita pizza & chefs raviolis. They let you cut your own pizza which was nice. The drinks were good too & the bar was very attentive. They were also kind enough to make us an affogato even though it wasn't on the menu. Would recommend getting the pizza & a couple drinks here.

The food was excellent!

I was genuinely looking forward to leaving a glowing review.

I ordered a non-alcoholic beer & later a Perrier while others at my table were drinking wine. When the server reached to remove the wine glass in front of me, I politely asked if I could keep it to drink my Perrier from. He refused, saying they were running low on wine glasses. I asked a second time, making it VERY CLEAR that keeping the glass was important to me. Instead of showing any flexibility or consideration, he again refused.

A wine glass is not always just a wine glass. For some people, it helps them feel included in the experience rather than singled out for not drinking. For others, it can be an important tool that allows them to comfortably participate in a social evening where alcohol is being served. Sometimes small details matter more than they appear.

I had ordered drinks, I was a paying customer, & I was simply asking to keep the glass that was already sitting in front of me. I do not believe that was an unreasonable request.

Adding to my frustration was the fact that throughout my entire meal, I was looking directly at a rack of wine glasses behind the bar, with wine glasses visibly available.

The interaction stayed with me for the rest of the evening & unfortunately took away from what should have been a wonderful night out with friends. To make matters worse, when it came time to pay, the server commented in front of others at the table about the tip percentage (he said only 15%)

Like really!? Now we are bullied into tipping more than 15% even with crap service! I honestly felt like leaving nothing.

It's unfortunate because the food was very good! However, what I remember most from the evening is not the meal, but the lack of hospitality, empathy, & professionalism shown by this server.

Never under estimate

The power of a Wine Glass!

I never post reviews. Making an exception. Went there couple of weeks ago. Still thinking about the bad experience. Without a doubt the worst waiter I have ever come across. Bad attitude for no reason with minimal effort. Funny to me that he still expected a tip at the end. Management should spend some time training their staff to meet minimal level of customer service.

Un dîner de dimanche vraiment sympa, le service excellent & très gentil, une pizza aux artichauts & épinards avec du provolone fumé magnifique ! Le vin rouge, sangiovese de Toscane, au verre bien servi & de qualité ! Un repas dominicale vraiment de qualité ☺?👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

A little slow on the water refill, & i had to ask for a bottle cause no server ever gave water to my mother in law.

Bien situé, bonne pizza croustillante mais la sauce tomate manque de saveur.

On a réservé la table jusqu'à 18h15 & ils nous ont évacué à 18h. Je n'y retournerai pas.
