Julian is the most incredible shucker/server I’ve ever had. He is shrimply the best at what he does. Jihan is also amazing. He reminds me of a more attractive Johnathan Richman & I mean that in the best way possible. If you don’t go here, you’re silly.

Good food, but overpriced. It's right in the middle of the touristic downtown though, so it's understandable

Repas pour 2 personnnes 652$ - coût abusif bien que la cuisine soit très bonne, pour les raisons suivantes: salles à manger extrêmement bruyante où il est pratiquement impossible de se parler sans crier. Nous étions 6 & on nous a assis sur une banquette très étroite, au coude à coude. Très inconfortable. Dès que les desserts ont été servis, les factures arrivent, on vous laisse à peine terminer votre dessert. On vous fait payer subito presto pour ensuite vous foutre à la porte parce que d'autres clients attendent. Ne vous fiez pas au menu uniquement car vous allez être déçu de votre expérience. C'est un piège à touriste.

Second review: went back 3 weeks ago. It was even better than the last time. We took the tasting menu & every single dish was delicious! Worth every penny. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

Cela fait très longtemps que je voulais essayer ce resto branché. Quelle déception! l'entrée de crabe est des plus ordinaires, le prix de 29$ exagéré même les petits outils manquent pour décortiquer. L'assiette de pétoncles à 39$ est composée de 3 pétoncles moyens, certes on annonce des truffles ce qui justifient un peu le prix mais ceux-ci ne goûtent rien. Les pétoncles étaient toutefois très bien grillés.
Enfin, depuis le temps que mes copines & moi essayions de planifier cette sortie, j'ai été doublement déçue d'apprendre que la "fameuse" barre mars frite n'était plus au menu, la serveuse de me répondre:"va falloir vous en remettre madame" ouf! Petite phrase rude à laquelle je répondrai aujourd'hui: " bien, sûr, je vais m'en remettre d'avoir gaspillé 140$ pour une bouffe & un service qui n'étaient pas à la hauteur de mes attentes!". Nous sommes 5 filles, branchées qui n'y retournons certainement plus.
