Food was not good & consistent. Two identical pasta orders in my party & both tasted different. My pizza had too much cheese & the sausage on pizza was cubes. What happened to sausage crumble. Forced myself to eat two slices. 2nd time visiting this location with similar experience & it will be my last.
Quand nous sommes arrivés, l'hôtesse nous a donné une table de 2 sur le bord de la porte & vraiment petite. Nous pensions partir, mais le gérant nous a déplacé a une autre table beaucoup mieux placé & plus grande ! Nous avons vraiment apprécié, comme d'habitude un service exceptionnel & la nourriture excellente comme à chaque fois !!
Ça faisait des années que je n'étais pas allé à L'académie...je pense que je l'avais tout simplement oublié...mais L'expérience générale à été très satisfaisante.
La salle de toilettes pour homme laissait à désirer...odeur d'urine !!!
Nous avons eu un service rapide car nous sommes arrivés tôt !
En général très bien !!
J'ai commandé le veau parmigiana.
La panure restait dans l'assiette détrempé.
J'ai demandé un fettuchini Alfredo. Vraiment mauvais. Ma cousine a commandé un veau citronnée. Tellement citronné que les joue nous collais ensemble. Les pâte en accompagnement n'étais pas bonne non plus.

We spent a great evening recently at this restaurant! They are under new management & the quality of food & service has significantly improved since the last time we had been there. We shared the shareable dish for 2 & it was delicious & more than enough food. It was prepared very well & served warm. We will definitely be back soon.!! Do yourself a favour & try it out!!
Un grand merci au restaurant L'Académie à Laval pour son excellent accueil, son service impeccable & la qualité de ses plats. Une très belle expérience du début à la fin.
Merci également à la nouvelle équipe d'administration pour son professionnalisme, son organisation & ses efforts afin d'offrir un service de grande qualité.
Je recommande fortement ! Si je pouvais donner plus que 5 étoiles, je le ferais sans hésiter.
Ash was our server & our host. He was so amazing that he is the main reason why we will return. Food was original, very tasty, served hot. The filet mignon was absolutely delicious. Pizza Margherita very good dough & nice toppings. Fettuccine Nastaba outstanding & the tartare of beef was one of the best we have had anywhere. Reasonably priced considering that you bring you own wine. We will return often. Thank you Ash.
Sur un groupe de 8, 4 seulement ont apprécié la qualité de la nourriture. Mets froids. Bien que nous n'étions que 15 en tout dans le resto, service lent & nous avons dû revenir à la charge pour obtenir du pain ou de l'eau chaude. Il faisait froid dans le resto.
