Ha sido una experiencia increíble. Me he sentado en el bar. Las ostras estaban perfectas, frescas. La atención de Michael fue increíble. Llegué sin reservación e inmediatamente hicieron todo lo posible por atenderme. La comida es deliciosa. Los clientes se veían deleitados por sus platos. Yo pedí la hamburguesa y estaba perfecta. Quedé con ganas de pedir el bone marrow. Volveré sin duda si regreso a Montreal!

We had the most fantastic meal. The atmosphere is comfortable & unpretentious, & both the quality of food & the service is outstanding. Bone marrow was a decadent appetizer. Beef tagliatelle & the Duck special were decadent but not overwhelming. Highly recommend & we hope to return.
