Nous avons choisi la table d'hôte à 28$ du soir, & nous nous sommes régalés. Les serveurs sont gentils, & le cadre au bord du fleuve est très agréable. Nous recommandons ! ☺️View more
I wasn't aware that the building also housed a popular brunch spot until a friend, who lives nearby, took me there. The ambiance, combined with the friendliness of the owner & staff, was truly impressive. The menu offered a wide variety of options, & everything was beautifully presented. I particularly enjoyed the brunch, especially the view of the beautiful water. Their fresh orange juice was incredibly delicious. Moreover, the place is very accessible for wheelchair users & those with other assistive devices. If you're looking for a delightful brunch experience with great accessibility, this is the place to go.View more
It's a wonderful spot for summer, where you can relax on the terrace & enjoy the view of the water. The place has a cozy, homely feel with a touch of 90s diner charm. The staff is exceptionally polite, & the food is both classic & satisfying.View more
J'y suis allée à quelques reprises pour le déjeuner. La vue est magnifique!View more
1st time dining here, it was a nice experience. Nothing you can't find anywhere else, & a bit pricey on the breakfast menu. Very clean bathrooms which is always nice too. A bit of a wait to get the check, but all in all a very pleasant dining experience.View more
The food was delicious, great service, & beautiful views.View more
Super beau restaurant sur le bord du fleuve, belle terrasse. J'y vais pour déguster la salade Cesar avec poulet grillé, la meilleure que j'ai mangée jusqu'à auj. Mais ce midi elle était très ordinaire, pas croquante, des grosses tiges du coeur, peu de croûtons & peu de bacon. Salade pas très fraîche selon moi. Très déçue.View more
J'ai pris la table d'hôtes. La crème de poulet était délicieuse. Le boeuf bourguignon très bon avec légumes & patates. Bonne portion. Je suis rassasié & le prix très raisonnable.View more

Bonne bouffe fraîche & bonnes portions. La salle est lumineuse avec une très belle vue & le service est très agréable.View more
Fabulous food & service at this restaurant. We went in for lunch on a Wednesday & we were seated inside by a window overlooking the water. It was truly a lovely view. The waitress, Lorraine was very welcoming & we could not have had better service. We had the mussels & Caesar salads, the mussels were a huge portion & served hot in a metal pot. The salads were very good with just the right amount of dressing. This is a great spot & next time I go, I will try to save room for dessert as they looked fabulous.View more
Breakfast is pretty good. But cannot give 5 stars for any breakfast that servers deepfried potatoes. Great patio & dining room. Quality drip Coffee. Good place for families.View more
Le meilleur endroit de Montréal pour manger au bord de l'eau & le seul restaurant à être physiquement au bord du fleuve, on y va pas pour la qualité de la nourriture & cela n'est pas important mais pour l'endroit & l'accueil.View more
Thought I had a delightful girls brunch on the water there & was going to suggest it to my family the next time they were looking to get together. Food was just okay, but the place is lovely. My bubble was burst after a friend spoke up about a weirdly advertised meal (The deux deux deux). While the manager comped her meal he came up to her as we were leaving & said he didn't want her business. He's lost more than hers!View more
Service exceptionnel. Nous etions un assez gros groupe & nous n'avons même pas eu besoin d'attendre. Les serveurs étaient présents & très gentils. Tout le groupe a adoré!!View more
