The bison burger stood out from a regular burger right away. Meat had a richer flavor, stayed juicy, & paired well with the toppings. Bun held nicely & the whole plate felt well thought out.
Tried the grilled lobster & was impressed. Meat was tender, fresh, & easy to remove from the shell. A light grilled note added extra flavor without covering the natural sweetness. Very enjoyable seafood option.
Met a friend here after work & we both had a great time. No delays, no mistakes, & the terrace had a lively feel. It is a dependable place when you want an easy evening out.
Toujours un plaisir de revenir ici. Le personnel reste souriant & le service bien coordonné même quand ça se remplit. Merci à Alexandra pour son professionnalisme & sa gentillesse durant notre repas.

The poutine was exactly what I hoped for. Fries stayed crisp, gravy had strong flavor, & the cheese curds softened nicely without disappearing. Rich meal done properly & very satisfying from first bite to last.
Repas agréable avec une belle vue sur l'animation autour. Le service restait rapide malgré plusieurs arrivées en même temps. Les plats étaient bien exécutés & l'équipe donnait une impression de maîtrise constante.
I ordered the butterflied shrimps & really enjoyed them. They were cooked nicely with a tender bite & good flavor throughout. Everything tasted fresh, & the light seasoning let the shrimp stand out in the best way.
C'était incroyable les gens étais vraiment gentil & serviable! J'ai adoré manger la bas, surtout que j'étais pressé alors le service était excellent 💕🫶✨?
