Mon fils demeure au coin Duluth & Hôtel-de-Ville, on va régulièrement manger autour de chez lui. Ce soir nous avons essayé La Prunelle & l'expérience gastronomique était à la hauteur. Fameux petit restaurant français que je recommande sans réserve. Merci pour cette gentille soirée sans faute!!!
Prix un peu élevés, mais c'est'apportez son vin'. Salle un peu bruyante, mais je suis vieux alors moins tolérant qu'avant :-) Serveuse exceptionnelle, très pro & agréable! Les plats étaient bons & bien préparés.
I organized a dinner with a large group of 20 people. Most of the guests enjoyed the place, the service & the food.
The top dishes were magret de canard, ris de veau (excellent). The mushroom appetizer was also excellent.
The creme brulee with berries as also great.
The team did a great job at serving everyone at the same time.
I definitely recommend this restaurant. It's great at a very reasonable price. & you can bring your own wine.
Nous avons demandé un menu dégustation & quelle surprise de savoir qu'ils nous l'ont fait!!! Incroyablement bon & les employés...excepttionnels!!! Merci pour la belle soirée
I have been going to this restaurant for YEARS. The ambiance in the place is lovely. When you walk in, immediately you know you'll ve back. The food is on another level on it's own. Each & every time you go you're pleasantly surprised at the arrangement of your dish, the quality of the ingredients & the attention to detail. I HIGHLY recommend making this your new date night spot, or bringing guests from out of town to eat great food. & don't ever skip on the creme brulee.
Restaurant conseillé par des amis, nous navons pas été déçu 👍 Nous nous sommes régalés & l'équipe est au top, de la cuisine au service, Merci pour ce moment. On reviendra, c'est certain
Small restaurant on a quiet side Street. Excellent service excellent food ambience was very nice for a meeting of friends. It's a bring your own wine place so that's an advantage for many people & there's an SAQ around the corner.
