Cannot recommend this place enough. Amazing food (get the Elk steak if they have it) & drinks & atmosphere. Mike is a delight. Sit up at the bar if you can! Planning a whole new trip to Montréal just to eat here again.

Nice rustic traditional decor. Great attentive service. Decent wine selection & nice cocktails. Food though was mixed. The pork schnitzel was good but unseasoned & only came with a base of mashed potatoes. The braised beef tagliatelle was very tasty but was a starter portion. Should have been double the size for a main.

Un repas exceptionnel, de qualité (& de belles quantités), tout en passant par une super ambiance, d'excellentes explications & conseils. L'accueil était tout aussi agréable. Allez y les yeux fermés !
