Creative french fare & attentive service in a well socially distanced restaurant. The decor is simple chic & the restaurant interior itself is small but with garage-style windows that can open up the whole front (weather permitting). A varied menu & the added benefit of being an BYOB. So visit the SAQ (Quebec liquor store) around the corner at 4008 St Denis before you dine. Recommended!
Interesting concept of the food! We have been La Prunelle customers for at least 15 years. So it was a surprise - totally different . For sure you people would love this way. But the desserts were disappointing ! Trout Tatar , steak & Nordic crevette salad were delicious.
Food was great. Service was very slow which was odd considering we were alone in there. It was also very cold & they didn't turn on the heat until more tables arrived as we were leaving. Server was totally dismissive of my wife which shouldn't happen these days.
Nous avons eu un excellent service du début jusqu'à la fin, nous sommes allés dans le cadre de la semaine Mtl à Table & la table d'hôte était excellent!
I have been here with my family twice prior to yesterday. The first two times were amazing but this last time i wasn't as impressed. We ordered the same dishes as the last two times & they weren't prepared the same, & the dessert was different as well. It was slightly disappointing as we had such high expectations from the last two times
