Party of 12 for dinner. Fantastic food, presentation & service. Couple of vegetarian options. Everyone had great things to say about the taste. Ambience was outstanding too. Highly recommend. For the food & experience the process was very good.

The wagyu burger is out of this world, it was cooked to perfection juicy & tender. The charred broccoli was so different than anything I've had & I was so delighted. The cocktails were amazing too. The mojito Carre was smooth yet distinguished. The old fashioned Carre was smooth & classic. The star of the show besides the amazing service, friendly staff & perfect bread was the crème brûlée, the best I've ever had.
My wagyu burger tasted exactly like the black bean vegetarian burgers my girlfriend makes, that iS NOT a compliment. & the saffron scallop risotto was delicious but very small portion size.

Von der Dekoration zum Essen bis zur Bedienung super individuell mit viel Mühe. Einzig die laute Atmosphäre im kleinen aber feinen Lokal ist etwas störend. Der Sommelier berät gerne zum Wein, jedoch ist der selbst ausgewählte Weisswein auch bereits sehr gut.
This restaurant is in a great location-just a short walk from the convention center & nearby hotels. The ambience is lovely, & the staff were friendly & welcoming. I appreciated the server's honest recommendation of a seafood dish that was a bit more unique & not something you'd typically find at other restaurants. The prawns were absolutely delicious! I just wish the dish had more prawns & fewer noodles. Overall, I had a great experience.
We visited on a week day for lunch. I'm glad we waited until close to one as the place is very crowded with people on lunch break & it is not very large.
We were greeted warmly & shown to our table. Drink service was prompt.
I ordered Tuna Tartare & my companion ordered Cod fish & chips. Both were delightful. The sauce on the tuna was a perfect complement along with the arugula salad on the side. The Cod was fried to perfection with a very light flaky batter. Both included fries which were salted with just the right amount.
We lingered & ordered dessert. Our server recommended the Maple Crunch squares, which was a great suggestion. It was just the right balance of savory & sweet.
Soirée incroyable avec mon ami (enfin, je pense que c'était lui… il portait un chapeau bizarre, mais bon, il avait faim).
La nourriture? Wow. J'ai croqué dans une bouchée, je crois que c'était de l'agneau & j'ai eu une révélation existentielle.
Mon ami, lui, a essayé de négocier avec la serveuse pour ramener le chef'chez lui', en lui offrant son chapeau (personne ne sait pourquoi, lui non plus). Le chef a poliment refusé, mais il l'a quand même essayé, & honnêtement, ça lui allait trop bien pour qu'il parte avec.
Bref, 11/10 (ou 12/10 si on compte le pain). Je reviendrai c'est certain mais sans chapeau!

Two of us had an absolutely incredible dining experience here on March 22nd. A big part of that was due to Jean Francois' passion, knowledge & phenomenal customer service. He was kind, attentive, thoughtful & patient with our questions. He truly embodies exemplary client care & hospitality.
The meal was perfect, the atmosphere was fantastic & the location was great. 5 stars without hesitation. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
Merci beaucoup!
Wow ! Une expérience gustative inoubliable, le service est excellent, servi comme des rois & l'ambiance est très bien aussi, car la musique n'est pas trop forte.
