Un restaurant qui vaut le détour. Nous avons passé une excellente soirée, dans une ambiance paisible & chaleureuse. Les plats étaient aussi bons les uns comme les autres. Le service était tout bonnement parfait avec des serveurs très souriants & passionnés. Si vous n'êtes pas amateur d'alcool, faites confiance au barman qui vous concoctera un délicieux mocktail. & si vous êtes curieux, je vous conseille fortement de goûter leurs huîtres signatures avec du foie gras, une superbe découverte. Merci à toute l'équipe pour cette belle soirée !

Fantastic meal last night - the seafood platter was so fresh , get the one with the lobster salad - it was worth it ! We also had the grilled octopus & the mussels both excellent. We're not normally pudding people but the financier was delicious. Really nice atmosphere & fantastic service, thank you to the absolutely charming girl who looked after us - we would love to go back
A lovely place with a great atmosphere & an excellent Chef. Food was amazing, tasty & well presented. We enjoyed all plates, the staff was very caring & the plates were delivered quickly. Highly recommended.
Plats mémorables, huîtres fraîches & excellent service : je ne peux en dire plus. Mouth watering food, very well executed. Service on point & great with recommendations.
Par où commencer, la qualité des ingrédients & des repas est incroyable. Les plats sont savoureux & les fruits de mer si frais. Le staff est génial & le service hors norme. Les cocktails sont tout simplement délicieux. Bref resto préféré en ville

Excellent restaurant !!! nous l'avons découvert grace à Mtl à table & depuis toutes nos visites furent agréables. La cuisine est délicieuse & le service très cordial. Dommage que le restaurant ait perdu en popularité, l'ambiance est plutôt tranquille & froide. Somme toute, faut la peine d'être découvert !
Le service n'était pas à la hauteur de nos attentes contrairement aux repas précédents. La serveuse a apporté des verres chauds pour servir du champagne. On a dû demander un saut à glace car elle n'y avait pas pensé...mais les premiers verres étaient servis. Pas de serviette sur le seau à glace lors du service du vin. On nous dit qu'il y du filet de doré au menu (ce qui est commandé) mais ce n'est pas ce qui a été servi.
