Food was very good. The service very very friendly. The prices fair. Beer also good. Only minor thing: please don't constantly cough in your palms & then serve customers food & drinks.

Got overcharged (my mistake I didn't check until after I paid) & then was served a crumble that looked like a small pile of leftover crumbs. My friend who ordered the same got theirs full sized & fully intact. I'm not sure why they served it instead of getting another piece or communicating that they were out.

Stumbled upon this absolute gem in old Montreal. The cabbage rolls & beef stroganoff were absolutely sensational. The potato latkes were phenomenal. The staff were on point & the ambience was warm & inviting. If I could give more than five stars, I definitely would. & try the dill pickle soup, another absolutely delicious menu option.

Wonderful time here. Beautiful interior & music, wonderful atmosphere, & the food was tasty (good portions & prices). There was a very talented guy playing the piano. They were even occasionally chatting with coworkers & customers all while still playing perfectly!!! One of our side dishes arrived way after our mains did but we got it for free because of that. The waiter was very nice.

Piece of home in montreal. I wish the beet consomme wasn't a consomme & that it wasn't just a broth but it was good. The pierogies were a solid choice. The live pianist was also such a nice touch! Would recommend & go back again
