Feels like a vintage steak house. Well spaced tables, dim lighting, music not too loud, very cozy. The menu is a no fluff basic steak house menu, which was amazing. Got a full rack of ribs with fries. The portion was insane!!!!! Also ordered the nachos with spinach dip as a shared entree. Delicious!!!!! Friend ordered the grilled tube salade. Loved it!!! Will be going back.
I had a strong craving for steak. Chose the Rib Steak. It was tough. Hard to cut. Chose the pepper sauce, it came in a very small cup, not as it is pictured in photos. The mashed potatoes were bland, tasted acceptable with the sauce, but there wasn't enough to make the steak palatable, let alone the mashed potatoes.
Re: Atmosphere, there was a father with his kids. His voice disciplining his kids was higher than the kids.
Took a while for someone to come to sit me, but after that, the service was great. Thank you Joanne.

Great place, amazing food & good customer service, definitely enjoyed my time there & their ribs were very delicious! Highly recommend this spot if you stop by Laval, you will definitely not be disappointed
The burger was really good, while the fried chicken was pretty average. The BBQ pork ribs had a different & interesting flavor that I enjoyed. The staff were kind & respectful, which made the experience even better.
This was our first time visiting this restaurant for a Saturday dinner at 5:30pm.
Reservations are easy to make & recommended as the dining room fills up quickly for dinner. You can make reservations online for parties of 5 or less but you need to call the restaurant directly for parties of 6 or more.
Their online menu is mobile friendly & very easy to navigate & read; same applies to their in house menu. The restaurant is licensed to serve alcohol.
There is plenty of free parking in the adjacent parking lot.
Our server was absolutely perfect; friendly, social, professional & gave great service.
The interior of the restaurant was clean & well maintained. The chair's seating is padded & very comfortable. I was surprised to see a lot of children in the restaurant, which increased the noise level.
They currently have a nice selection of summer cocktails with the strawberry lychee mojito being a big hit.
Caesar Salad - the starter salad is a very decent portion & more then enough for 2 prople to share. The dressing was tasty but we found the croutons bland (not a big fan of croutons to begin with) & the bacon was a strip served on the top of the salad. It is a different way to serve it but we prefer a more traditional approach by having the bacon chopped up & mixed in as it helps increase the flavour of the salad.
Fried squid - perfectly cooked & seasoned! Definitely not over cooked like so many other restaurants do.
Pork ribs - so moist, perfectly cooked & the bbq sauce was delicious. You dont need a knife & can easily pull them apart or use a fork to split. The coleslaw was well seasoned & tasty. You get a huge pile of fries & they are crispy & delicious.
Whole Ribs & Chicken Tender Combo - the ribs are described as above but the chicken tenders are quite good. Nice, thick pieces of chicken. They were tender & lightly coated so they are nice & crispy yet still moist. The only thing to change is they need to be seasoned as they are quite bland. Season the chicken & the coating.
Cheeseburger Madisons - well cooked & seasoned & a nice big portion.
Filet mignon - 7 oz, was perfectly cooked & seasoned.
Chicken & avocado salad - This is a large bowl & will definitely satisfy your taste buds & hunger. The chicken was beautifully cooked & moist. These also lacked seasoning. The mixed seasonal greens, topped with avocados, hearts of palm, artichokes & grilled peppers all worked well together & complemented each other. The dressing was a perfect pair with a nice, zesty tang.
We were too full for dessert however a few of us did enjoy a nice cappucino. They also have decaf cappuccino which is great for those who can't do late day caffeine.
Our overall experience was very good; from the clean parking lot, to the clean interior, excellent service & food. We would definitely recommend this restaurant & will definitely be returning.
Excellent quality food at a reasonable price & quick service. We had the pork back ribs, the chicken tenders, & the salmon, with baked potato: all tasting great, generous portions. Highly recommend!
