Yummmm! Beautiful space. Attentive & friendly service. Incredibly delightful food with gorgeous presentation. Sadoc & Daniel were personable & professional. I can't wait to come back & sample more of the menu! Our drinks were beautifully crafted.
Was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. Food & ambiance were great but the service was what sets it apart. Kind, attentive & knowledgeable staff made it an overall great dinner. Thanks!
Food was truly delicious! Everything we had was way better than expected, very flavorful & intentional. Plate presentation was beautiful, felt very upscale. Wait staff was extremely attentive & friendly. Decor was beautiful, fresh & bright. Location was great, not inside the Royalmount mall, but adjacent & leading out to the parc/courtyard/esplanade area. Definitely not a'mall' vibe. It struck a perfect balance between casual comfort & understated elegance. It was a little loud, but Saturday afternoons through to evenings there is a live DJ event that happens in the courtyard so it is not the reataurant itself that was loud. Other nights & afternoons would be far quieter. We sat on the terrace & therr was a large screen broadcasting the FIFA wold cup games, so it could also be a chill spot to catch the game. But I repeat, the food, it was really exceptional. The entire menu seemed appetizing. I would highly recommend going & look forward to my next visit.
