An unbelievable eating experience from start to finish. The Obi King Salmon was absolutely brilliant. Be sure to get the sticky toffee with ice cream for dessert!

A Canadian French original, hence the name! Very cozy interior, with a simple, rich & mouthwatering menu! Had the smoked Bone Marrow as an app, the Bison Burger & from the daily specials a shepherd pie, to share. Damn! Every single dish so good! I was reluctant about the Bison Burger & it beats some of the best beef burger I've had! The shepherds pie, was rich yet light...cheesy 🤤 & DELICIOUS!!! Finally, the Bone Marrow was great very yummy & paired with the right ingredients that cut through the richness.

Repas à en amoureux, tout juste après mon arrivée de France. Petite table en retrait, super ambiance musicale & décoration, service aux petits soins, très bons conseils en plat & en vin. Le burger de bison était excellent avec sa poutine! Prix raisonnable. Nous nous sommes régalés, merci! A recommander!

Too bad I finished all the food before I even got to write the review!!!! Food was great! The bartender was awesome! The service was top-notch. We'll definitely come back again!! Always ask them for special/catch of the day. They are always a hit!

This was by far the best meal I've had in Montreal in my several times visiting the city. The ambiance of this restaurant is so cozy & warm that it makes you feel like you're enjoying your meal in a quaint cabin. The food is homey, fresh & delicious. I will absolutely be returning when I go back to Montreal. If you check this place out, make sure to have the sticky toffee pudding!!
