Une première expérience pour moi ... à refaire sans hésitation! L'accueil & le service était au top. Le menu un pur délice & ce, à partir de l'entrée jusqu'au dessert. Je recommande cet endroit à 100%.

Excellente soirée, bon repas ! L'entrée aux champignons est délicieuse, les ris de veau sont très bons, les fromages du Québec également.
Je recommande
Agréablement surprise par la qualité de la nourriture, la recherche, les saveurs. Service impeccable. Seul bémol : le gâteau au fromage de chèvre était très salé & pas très bon. Mais pour tout le reste... wow !
The chef has a completely personal style - wonderful combinations of flavors while retaining traditional tastes. Fresh seafood, great duck, beef, & indeed something for everyone. The "amuse-bouches" are original & beautifully presented. The staff are attentive & charming.
Friendly staff, quite creative & interesting menu & good value for money (especially since it's BYOB). The dishes I tried were all executed well without being spectacular.
Menu dégustation savoureux, quoique le ris de veau aurait pu être plus relevé. Très bon service. Petit restaurant de quartier sans prétention où il fait bon se retrouver entre amis. A recommander.
Choix de Menu intéressant. Belle présentation. Plats bien apprêtés, goût recherché & accompagnements bien assortis. Très bon service. Bel endroit mais peu d'intimité car les tables sont très rapprochées. Bon rapport qualité/prix. Le modèle « Apportez votre vin » m'a attiré.
