Sadly had many of the things that could have made it great, but service simply couldn't keep up with the tables they had. We went for a 21st birthday dinner with my grandparents, table of 5 & reserved ahead of time. In theory everything went well at the beginning, good menu & good overall vibe. It started to go downhill an hour into our service, when we still hadn't been served our entrées (cold salads) & a lemonade. Given that resto was half full at that point it didnt seem reasonable & we started to feel ignored. Entrée was missing the side of chicken, came after. Then another hour for our main meal (we had now been there for two hours). While waiting we had to ask multiple times how long it would take & at this point my 90+ year old grandparents were completely fading & very hungry. Practically had to beg for some bread to keep us going. Meal finally came 2 hours & 15 min after we got there, warm (thank god) & the food itself was good but considering our frustration at this point & the fact the meals were basically pasta & cooked eggplant, felt underwhelming. Poured our own wine. Another 40 minutes for dessert (offered for free luckily). The entire thing took 3 hours & 15 minutes for a three course meal & bill. It was clear by the end the kitchen they have cannot accommodate the extension they built & they were not prepared for a proper Saturday night crowd. Waiters did their best but didnt seem to be able to actually help. Manager also tried to justify the wait time which was objectively unreasonable. Unfortunately this ruined the whole atmosphere of the birthday party we wanted to have. It was my first time here & didnt leave a good impression. Hope they fix these service issues as it's just not up to standard for a Westmount restaurant & certainly not what we would expect for a family special occasion.

Somehow worse than Donato, the same owner's other Westmount spot. He's also behind the burger place down the block, which is its own flavour of forgettable. Three restaurants, three misses, all opened within about a year of each other.

The place appears to be aiming for a young-&-clubby thing that feels out of place in this neighbourhooda. The servers are kids: shy, apologetic, visibly unsure of what they're serving.

The food? The tuna salad was made with canned tuna. Not *tasted like*. Was. Salt & tin. The pizza had the specific limpness of something that arrived frozen & got reheated in a hurry.

Belle ambiance, le staff est très accueillant. Les salades sont généreusement garnies & les pâtes aux champignons sont excellentes.

Lovely venue. Replaced the Melrose
Brasserie we enjoyed so much years ago.
Hoping for a quick lunch between errands, we dropped in & were seated right away , chose salads & pizza. Good ,
However, very long wait despite place not too crowded. Pleasant atmosphere but waitress wearing a very stained outfit, unbecoming.
We ordered affogatos & both of us found paper!! In our cups. Probably vanilla ice cream backing not perked off well ? Unacceptable

Excellent beet salad, prosciutto & chicken sandwiches. For the area & the atmosphere, reasonable prices
