We're so sad about this place... it was our go-to for years, 2-3 times a night we would eat there when it was located on Peel. Since the move, the quality went down it's terrible. I'm really disappointed....

Ma première fois pour un petit repas d'après spectacle au Centre Bell. Super efficace, bon & beaucoup de choix ! Il y a 3 bornes de commande près du comptoir si vous voulez prendre le temps de regarder les options.
