Je donne une moins bonne note pour l'ambiance tout simplement parce que rien n'est parfait dans la vie comme dirait mon ami! Mais par contre l'acceuil était très ambiancée, le service était chaleureux & rapide, ma poutine est excellente & chaude on nous a même demander quel intensité de piquant on voulait dans notre poutine thaï j'ai vraiment rien a dire apres le festival underground sous la pluie ça fait bien plaisir d'arrêté vous voir merci encore!

La poutine etait bonne mais manquait cruellement de fromage. L'ambiance de cantine typique. Service assez rapide. Les portions aléatoire… La poutine qui accompagne le trio est presqur qu'Egale a la grosse poutine. On etait content du trio mais la grosse poutine etait vemt petite si on compare & manquait de fromage
