While experiences vary, many patrons praise the extensive menu, which features standouts like poutine, pizza, and various Greek specialties, all served in an unpretentious, cozy atmosphere.

The small regular poutine was delicious & filling. My wife had the Caesar salad with chicken & the chicken was delicious.

Très déçue de mon expérience.Il manquait un Pepsi & une frite.

En plus, lorsque nous avons signalé un problème avec notre commande, le boss a insisté pour dire que nous n'avions pas commandé les trios, alors que nous avions bel & bien commandé deux trios : un burger au poulet & un pita au poulet. Au lieu d'écouter le client & de chercher une solution, ils ont obstinément contredit ma mère.

Très déçue de mon expérience. Le poulet était rose à l'intérieur, donc je n'ai pas pu le manger, ce qui est inacceptable pour de la volaille.En plus d'une patate pas cuit.

Service décevant & nourriture préoccupante. Je n'y retournerai pas.

What a find! Other side of the Village, very quiet but deserves to be way busier. Super friendly staff, patient with my poor French & very restorative poutine. My first so will edit if I find better but I can't believe it can be beat.

C'était vraiment bon, mais la pauvre serveuse était seule pour servir tout le monde sur l'heure du dîner. Elle a bien mérité ses tips. La nourriture était bonne, généreuse en quantité & très abordable.

Another local recommendation that I tried, & was happy with the food options. Plenty to choose from on the menu here (brush up on your Quebecois) & a little French lady running around taking orders on the diner side (there's also a bar side to this location).
The portions are generous, & you should come here with an empty stomach because you will EAT.
Prices seems reasonable as to what you're getting, location is clean & reasonably comfortable (older style of tables/seating).
Worth checking out for sure.
