For a resto called Mechante boeuf, there's not much of a selection in the way of beef dishes....qhich isn't necessarily a bad thing..& you would expect a large variety of beef burgers, but was surprised at the limited selection..two(2). & it has blue cheese...which I failed to notice, oh well my fault.. but Meh!!Nothing to write home about. & at $19 pretty unimpressed... a lot better & cheaper burgers could be had elsewhere in this great city... just my humble opinion
Oh yeah... & serving a $ 9 tepid beer in a bland non-descript Bock glass... kinda cheap & low class..should be served in a pint glass...
again my humble snobby opinion...let me just say that we weren't wowed... Service was good & friendly though.
LONG BUT WORTH KNOWING. As a server, I know this isn't right!
To kick things off I'd like to say that the portion sizes & flavours of the meals are great.
Our service however, was bitter-sweet. Our waiter was polite & helpful with the menu & fast to come take our drink orders. As a server myself, I find what happens next absolutely appalling. I ordered the salmon tartare as my appetizer, yet, only 25 minutes AFTER placing the order did the waiter come to inform me that they were out of salmon & instead offered me beef tartare (which I accepted, but never received). Some 20-30 minutes later the main dishes started arriving to our table, all except two. My boyfriend had ordered a steak (probably the fastest food you can order from a kitchen..) that he never got, so I quickly asked the waiter about how much longer it would be & he looked at me with a blank stare. He apologized for having FORGOTTEN to place the order & proceeds to explain that the kitchen is now closed. After waiting over an hour for an appetizer & main meal, we never received. No substitute food options were offered, that was it. My boyfriend would have to sit there & watch the rest of us eat our meals...
While this was going on with us, our friend across from us was speaking to the manager. Apparently he ordered a salmon tartare that never came & posed if he could have the beef & the manager told him there was none of that left either. Interesting side note, the waiter offered me beef tartare didn't he? I never got it though. So the friend then explains to the MANAGER that he is hungry, he'll take a burger, anything fast. The manager says "I'm very sorry but the kitchen is closed, you guys can share..." I sincerely hope this was a joke. Then he tells my friend that he can offer him a round of SHOTS for the table instead. Instead of ANY FORM OF FOOD THAT HE HAD ORDERED. Needless to say, my friend refused. We came there to eat, when you take an order it is your JOB to make sure the customers get the food they ORDERED. & I find it offensive to be offered SHOTS as a meal replacement. I've never heard of a manager anywhere offering a liquor replacement to someone who ordered food. As I said, I am a server as well. If I screw up someone's order I will ensure that the customer gets a MEAL they are happy with instead. Or a discount? Nope, get wasted on an empty stomach!
La nourriture est bonne, mais rien à se "taper la tête sur les murs" disons. Le service est bon de l'accueil jusqu'au départ, mais ce qui gâche la sauce, c'est le bruit. Il y a tellement de bruit qu'on ne peut s'entendre parler. Les tables sont assez grosse & on est loin les uns des autres, alors oubliez le souper en amoureux, c'est pas la place. Par contre, pour une soirée entre amis c'est pas trop mal. De bons cocktails & un bar à huîtres impresionnant. $$$

Wow! Je n'ai jamais mangé d'aussi bon Calmars frits!!! J'ai l'eau à la bouche juste à y repenser!! La présentation des assiettes est parfaite! J'ai adoré mon expérience. Je le conseille à tous!
Vraiment succulent la viande très dur à battre ,avec un service vraiment irréprochable .je vous le conseille pour vos souper entre amis ,& très chaleureux avec une ambiance feutré ,bonne expérience à vous tous .
J'y suis allé pour l'anniversaire d'un ami.
Le service était vraiment super! J'ai fait plusieurs restos des proprio (Groupe Antonopoulos) & vraiment, le service dans tous leurs restos est vraiment bien. Chapeau!!!
Malgré que nous étions un groupe, le service fut rapide & efficace! La nourriture est super bonne & l'endroit est vraiment bien avec une belle ambiance!
L'ambiance est vibrante, bonne musique & bon choix au menu. J'y suis allee avec des amis pour un anniversaire & en tant que vegetarienne je n'avait qu'un choix de plat, le vege burger. Il etait mediocre, mais je comprend que c'est un endroit peu propoce a recevoir des gens veges comme moi.
Mes camarades ont aimé leur experience mais ont été decus du tartare de boeuf, qui laissait à desirer.
Bref, l'ambiance est bonne, mais la nourriture pourrait etre meilleure au prix payé.
The restaurant was very accommodating for our large group of 9 & the restaurant's ambiance was very nice. The food did not take too long to arrive, but the portions were a bit small for the price. Nonetheless, a fine dining experience for a date or gathering.
