Bustling French brasserie. Excellent food. Service was good although I felt we didn't get the same attention as francophone customers but it didn't result in issues. I can recommend the place & would definitely come back for the food. Fish soup, croc monsieur, quiche are recommended. I also liked you can take your time here despite the business in this restaurant!View more

I've been there many times. But it seems the overall experience is less pleasant. My wife wanted a dessert, only reason we booked this place. But they run out of it, on a Saturday at 9pm. Also, portions are smaller & prices higher. & service was just ok when it used to be very good. A disappointment.View more

This is a spectacular French restaurant. My friend & I took a day trip to Montreal & found this place on google. We walked in without a reservation & the maître d' was kind enough to seat us as long as we'd be finished by his next reservation. The service was excellent. Since we had to drive back to The States after our visit, the waitress recommended a half bottle of Chardonnay, which was very good. We shared the arancini & bone marrow to start. For our entrees, I had the hanger steak with mashed potatoes & my friend had the duck confit. All of the was delicious & perfectly cooked. The ambiance here is excellent as well. I'd highly recommend coming here if you're going to be in Montreal.View more

J'y suis allée avec mon mari pour célébrer notre anniversaire. Les rillettes sont délicieuses, l'onglet de boeuf aussi, la cuisson était parfaite. La tartelette au citron & la crème brûlée étaient parfaites pour terminer le repas. Le service est attentionnée du début à la fin.View more

Took me a while to fall asleep after . But that's ok I drank 2 boréale & a glass of red . Excellent serviceView more

J'y suis retournée après une dizaine d'années pour y déguster les délicieux os à moelle ou les classiques rognons de veau. & retrouver l'ambiance sympathique où l'on aimait casser la croute entre amis Déçue par le service, les os a moelle mal apprêtés , une soupe sans goût, des bruits de vaisselle insoutenables ou presque. Non je n'y retournerai plus. Ni dans 10 ans , ni jamais. Mes copains non plus. Trop cher pour la qualité L'Express n'est plus ce qu'il était. Françoise 7/3/2024View more

The service here is so thoughtful, from pouring a taste of wine for both me & my husband to serving the perfect amount of bread with their rillettes so that we didn't have to ask for more but didn't waste anything, timing everything perfectly & being very kind during the reservation process. Also have never eaten anything here that wasn't delicious. Never fails every time! Thanks for making our anniversary dinner a special one!View more
