Did not live up to the hype. The food was a disappointment. This is the first time I've had a tuna app that I did not enjoy. The joe app was also a disappointment. The quality of the beef does not reflect the price point. Overall underwhelming..

Excellent resto, faut accepter de mettre un peu le prix (50$ assiette, 100$ total avec entrée, boisson..) mais ça vaut vraiment le coup, la cuisine est excellente, félicitations au chef, & les serveurs se démènent pour un service impeccable, je recommande !

Phenomenal a la carte plates featuring plenty of classic French technique & flavors. Everything we had was outstanding. Not hyper seasonal but they do rotate the menu. Undoubtedly one of the best a la carte meals I've had

We walked into Joe Beef, sat down & I just didn't like the vibe. I felt like I was just a part of the bucket list crowd checking off their boxes so we immediately left & went next door to Liverpool House & sat at the bar. For me that was much better, a more intimate experience. The food was great, drinks were spot on & to top it off Michael was there to manage it all. Juliano kept our water glasses full & our eating area in order. Every interaction with Michael & Juliano was fun & had a great spirit which influenced our eating experience positively.

10 out of 10. Everything was delicious! I went with a couple foodie friends & both agreed it was the best meal they've had in a long while. Everything was done to perfection & our waiter was fantastic! Cornish Hen was the best ever & the Canadian Steak couldn't have been better!
