The service was GREAT, & so was the food -- all three courses!

However, the room was so noisy that it was hard to hear each other speak.

This was related to the fact that the room was too crowded, even from the point of view of safety.

Safety was an issue partly because no one was masked, yet highly contagious COVID, cold & flu viruses are still circulating..

Notre groupe de six personnes a été installé dans une salle en retrait au sous-sol, la salle principale étant comble. La température était plutôt froide dans cette salle du sous-sol. Nous avons eu l'impression d'être oubliés par les serveurs. Le service était très lent (plus de deux heures, même sans dessert), même si la serveuse était très courtoise. Nous avons attendu 30 minutes avant de revoir la serveuse & pouvoir demander la facture
