Très bruyant Nourriture correcte sans plus Bel effort d'utiliser des Produits quebecois Rapport qualité prix qui m'apparait plutôt à mes yeux défavorables Mais un endroit intéressant par ailleurs

Incredible food with a very cute atmosphere. It really is the perfect restaurant for a warm summer night. The pork was absolutely divine, & I highly suggest taking the artichoke!

Excellent all across. Funky wine pairings. The dessert option lacked some imagination.

Nous avions choisi cet endroit pour la terrasse. Malheureusement ils ont décidé de ne pas l'ouvrir en raison d'un très faible risque de pluie . Toutes les terrasses du quartier étaient pourtant ouvertes. l'intérieur est sombre & bruyant & il était très difficile d'entendre les explications des serveurs. En outre, malgré une addition de plus de 1000$ pour un groupe de 7, ils ont ajouté plus de 30$ pour l'eau gazeuse (faite maison), ce qui est très décevant.

Incredible food!! We sat at the bar, the staff was so friendly & it was fun watching them operate. The service was amazing & every course was absolutely on point. Best cocktail I had in Montreal, this was in the top 3 restaurants we ate at during our trip.

Revised for 2024: We ate outside. Staff is as friendly & knowledgeable as in 2019. Local ingredients & dishes as yummy. We ate outside & it was perfect. Still a great evening & well worth the time & expense. In the best of all possible worlds, you get to eat here. I can remember the flavor & texture of each course: a perfect scallop, in cream, with pepper & flowers. Brussels sprouts with apples & mint. Hen of the woods with roasted turnips & radishes. Sea bass with a tomato & edamame sauce. (My companion had a pheasant.) Lemongrass ice cream over crunchy wheat & a not-so-sweet maple cake & a pear compote. & the wine pairing was fabulous. The atmosphere was wonderful, the staff was charming. Just go.
