Nous y sommes allés dans le cadre de Montréal à table. Le menu nous paraissait intéressant & c'était le cas. Ce ne fut pas un repas mémorable car plutôt conventionnel. Nos papilles gustatives ne faisaient pas Wow. Par contre, très très bruyant. On ne s'entendait pas parler! Pour ce qui est du service, même pas pris de café à la fin car on a reçu l'addition avant de pouvoir le demander. Service très très expéditif!
Food was good, we were disappointed with the service. The waiter kept leaning on us & shuved the plates in front of us even if glasses or plates were in the way. I did not expect this from this type of restaurant & for what we payed.
Great service. Wonderful attention to detail. Impressed with ease of ordering special vegan meal off menu & delicious taste with wonderful presentation.
Will certainly go back !
Très bon accueil, ambiance chaleureuse & animée. Service efficace & sympa. Chaises confortables, service de table impeccable & lumière feutrée. Une très bonne adresse pour les diners amoureux, entre amis ou en famille.
C'est avec nos 40 invités que nous avons célébré notre mariage à La Prunellle.
L'ensemble de nos convives avaient que de bons mots pour la qualité de la table & de l'acceuil fort chaleureux d'Annie & Félix.
Nous en gardons un souvenir mémorable, merci à l'equipe de La Prunelle.
The food was great ! We had the tapas style, price was perfect. The restaurant was a nice ambiance, no excessively loud music, allowing us to have good conversations. Only small issue was the service took a little long. If it was just a little faster it would have been a perfect 5 stars for me.
The waitress was great though, helpful, knowledgeable, very pleasant & comfortable to switch back french & english to accommodate everyone on the table. I think perhaps it was a weekday & there was not as many staff, hence it was a little long.
Nonetheless it was great food, & if you are with a great company I think it was a nicely spaced out meal allowing you to chat & catch up with friends.
C'était bien, il manque un peu de service, surtout qu'il y avait beaucoup de serveuse pour un petit endroit comme ça. Quelque erreur sur la facture, nous avions pris le menu dégustation, ce n'était pas indiqué. Il y avait seulement le plat principal. Mais nous avions pris également une entrée & un dessert. Le prix du repas principal c'était celui du menu dégustation avec les extras. J'aime bien quand la facture est explicite & qu'on a pas besoin de demander des explications. Exemple, quand on va chez McDo, tout est marqué. Mais là le repas coûte 15 fois plus cher, c'est un minimum me semble. Un des extras qui était pas inscrit sur le menu a été crédité, mais il y en avait d'autres. La serveuse semblait pressé.
La bouffe était très bonne, le menu dégustation, c'est plus une table d'hôte en fait. Il aurait dû comporter un plus qui ne se retrouve pas sur le menu.
