Une valeur sûre pour nous depuis près de 5 ans! On revient toujours avec plaisir pour la qualité constante des plats, les saveurs bien équilibrées & la fraîcheur des ingrédients. C'est le genre d'endroit où l'on sait qu'on passera un bon moment.
Le service est toujours agréable & l'ambiance conviviale. J'enlève simplement une étoile parce qu'il y a encore quelques petits détails qui pourraient rendre l'expérience irréprochable.
Une adresse qu'on continue de fréquenter avec plaisir & qu'on recommande sans hésiter.
Amazing place with amazing service, the food is absolutely delicious (try the #3). Perfection. Waiter was amazing friendly fast service & seating, great ambiance & a salad bar comes with meals.
I've been dining here for the past few years & have probably visited 10-15 times. Every single experience has been consistently excellent, which is why I keep coming back.
The service is always warm, friendly, & attentive. The salad bar is fresh & well-stocked with a great variety of salads, & the main dishes are consistently generous, delicious, & great value.
Our most recent visit was especially memorable. The staff was fantastic - friendly, attentive, & genuinely made us feel welcome. I'd also like to give a special mention to the lady working on June 27, 2026. She was absolutely amazing & went above & beyond to make sure everything was perfect.
One thing I really appreciate is how accommodating they are with food allergies & dietary restrictions. They take them seriously & are always happy to help, which makes dining here stress-free.
It's rare to find a restaurant that's this consistent over so many visits. We'll definitely be back many more times. Highly recommended!

Expérience d'un groupe. Service lent. Bar à salades un peu simple. Sangria blanche qui goute l'eau. ( Ok à serveuse à repris le pichet pour ajouter de quoi, mais c'était pas très alcoolisé) Poulet parmigiana un peu brûlé, mais quand même bon. Mais ce que j'ai moins apprécié c'est l'obligation de payer 18% de pourboire. Ok on était un groupe, mais il me semble que ça revient à chaque personne de donner le pourboire qu'elle souhaite.
Pretty good food. Salad bar is nothing to write home about. Service was decent, very nicely decorated restaurant. Probably won't return, but had a good experience!
Nous étions 3 amis (& amies) pour aller souper sans réservation en semaine vers 6h45 pm. Tout était excellent. On nous a servi des bons pains chauds avec beurres & un pot de beurre à l'ail. Ensuite, avec notre repas on avait le bar à salades d'inclus. J'ai pris la salade de betteraves & de pommes de terre. Elles étaient délicieuses. Par la suite, Abby notre sympathique serveuse, nous a servi nos repas. Dans mon cas, j'ai pris le jarret d'agneau avec sauce tomatée & fettuccine aux fines herbes. C'était un délice. Nous n'avons pas pris de desserts car nous avions assez mangé, même que l'on en a rapporté avec des plats pour emporter. Nous allons revenir c'est certain !
Lovely spot with vintage decor & a warm atmosphere! Spaghetti sauce was one of the tastiest I've ever had at a restaurant & my latte was delicious! Abby, our server was knowledgeable, friendly & very welcoming! If we are in the area again, we will definitely be back!
Nous avons quitté parce que l'attente était trop longue. Il n'y a pas de réservation. Nous irons une autre fois. Il faut arriver tôt. Nous sommes arrivés vers 5hr30 pm & quitté vers 6hr30
Staff were incredibly friendly & the food came quickly & was all delicious. The dressing for the salad was amazing & I could have just filled up on salad. Had le taillibert which was my first time having boar & it was quite nice, & the pasta was cooked perfectly. Was also interesting reading the history of the building on the menu! W
