Pour notre sortie père/fille nous avons été charmé par ce restaurant! Elisa nous a donner un EXCELLENT service, en plus de nous conseiller 2 excellents vin! Le seul point que mon père a moins aimer, c'est qu'il y avait beaucoup de gras sur le porc qu'il a commander.. Mais sinon, les saveurs étaient au rendez-vous de l'entrée au dessert 🤍 284$ pour 2 entrées, 2 repas, 2 cocktail, 2 verres de vin BIEN remplis, 2 dessert & 2 café (on roulais en sortant de la !)

Honestly we were disappointed. A cosy restaurant & good service but the food was average & lacked imagination & flavour. We have been in Montreal for 7 days & eat out in good quality places every night so we have a baseline for above average food, sadly this was not in the above average group.

Sat at the bar & got chatting to the owner as he opened oysters. His attention to detail & quality was evident & is reflected in the excellent food & drink served here. I will be coming back.

Amazing restaurant in Montreal! The atmosphere is laid back & the food is simply delicious! All farm to table, the food was sooo good that I can't wait to go back to Montreal! I am dreaming of the shrimp in garlic butter! & the French fries with aioli-I can't take my mind off this food!
