The name, “La Petite Marche”, is jokingly attributed to the many small steps that lead us from one dining room to another... The legend says that this name is inspired by a small village located in the Auvergne region, in France. France, where the idea of small simple, tasty dishes would have originated. If you have already been here, you will have noticed that the architecture reflects the menu; inspired, eclectic, diverse, even exotic! A small bistro that never stops evolving. Six dining rooms on three floors and a terrace lined with greenery offer the choice of ambiance. It is that Our restaurant is open to the World. Rebellious and sensual. Multiple and faithful. Generous and original. You will enjoy fine and aromatic meats such as quail, duck or game as well as everyday dishes; fresh and colorful salads, seasoned, crispy fries or European sandwich to go - not to mention pasta, fish, seafood and grilled meats. Festive evenings, romantic dinners, Happy Hour with friends or afternoon coffee, all occasions are good to come relax under the giant skylight and admire the walls covered with mosaics (handmade!). Also offers a varied list of local and imported wines and beers – without forgetting the cocktails, sangria and other delectable elixirs.

Endroit parfait pour passer une belle soirée animée par un spectacle musical. Bon service, aucune erreur sur les factures même si nous étions 10 personnes qui avons partagé des plats & des bouteilles. Par contre, nous avons tous été déçu par le repas. Crevettes & pétoncles vraiment trop cuites, burger de canard assez sec, température inégale dans un plat de pâtes. La qualité de la cuisine devrait être améliorée.
J'y suis allé durant la matinée en semaine pour une rencontre d'affaires & nous étions presque seuls... Pas vraiment d'ambiance à ce moment de la journée.
Troisième visite à ce restaurant. Nous sommes de St-Jérôme. Belle ambiance, bon repas.
Selon ce que nous avions commandé, nous devions avoir chacun un jus d'orange... Pas servis.
Selon ma commande, je devais obtenir trois crêpes, j'en ai reçu deux. Je comprends que ma commande à 3 crêpes a été remplacée par un #9 à deux crêpes.... À 8$ de plus que ce que je prévoyais payer...
Je recommanderais ce restaurant tout de même.
Bar chansonnier avec une super ambiance, les assiettes sont bonnes sans pour autant être extraordinaire mais en même temps ils ne sont pas principalement un restaurant donc ça va. Plusieurs choix de bières & de vin, je recommande fortement!
Service was great! They were attentive. The menu did not have Moscow Mule but they still did it for me. I appreciate that.
Food was bad. I ordered chicken pizza, & it was not good. It was so bland that I could hardly finish it. Fries with pizza were ok but not so great.
I remembered this place fondly from many years ago, but it no longer resonates. While the prices have skyrocketed, the food quality has deteriorated: the food was bland, the fruit selection was basic & unripe, the toast was barely browned wonderbread, & there wasn't even salt & pepper at the table. Half the tables were empty, though we did arrive for a late brunch (13:30 on Sunday). & the tea selection was paltry-- the only black tea available was generic orange pekoe. What a disappointment. I won't be going back.
Got a smoked meat poutine, delicious & a large portion. Then I got a coffee & apple tart. The tart was not very good. Overall it was good. Enjoyed music performances
