We stopped here just to have a drink since they had lots available tables on their terrace & had advertised happy hour at $9 for on tap beer & $13 for cocktails.
Where this restaurant lacks is in variety. They only have 3 beers on tap, & their taps weren't even working. As bottled beers go, they had Guiness & Landshark Lager. So $9 for a bottle of beer, not a great deal. As for cocktails, they had a few more choices, but only one of them qualified for the happy hour price.
Le 419 is well located, the terrace has a nice view of place Jacques Cartier, which boasts of lively atmosphere, many pedestrians & some buskers.
Our waitress was very friendly.
We had dinner across the street at Maggie Oakes & we noticed this place was absolutely dead all day long, which is suprising since the street, & other restaurants, were filled with tourists.
If you don't want to wait for a table, this is place is for you.
J'aurais vraiment aimé pouvoir dire que j'ai adoré mon passage à la Terrasse 419, mais malheureusement, j'ai été déçue - & c'est pas quelque chose qui m'arrive souvent.
Avec ma soeur, on a attendu facilement 15 minutes avant qu'un serveur vienne nous voir pour prendre notre commande. Ensuite, ça a pris un bon 20 minutes avant qu'on reçoive notre entrée… des dumplings au wagyu... & on n'avait toujours pas reçu nos boissons, juste de l'eau.
On a même eu le temps de finir l'entrée au complet, mais toujours sans rien à boire. Ce qui m'a dérangée, c'est de voir un duo arrivé après nous recevoir leurs boissons avant nous. C'est pas censé prendre 45 minutes faire deux verres de sangrias.
Rendus aux plats principaux, le serveur demande à ma soeur si elle veut du ketchup avec ses frites. Elle lui dit oui… mais il n'est jamais revenu avec.
Il y avait juste deux serveurs pour toute la soirée. La terrasse était pas mal pleine, mais l'intérieur était vide. On dirait que ça tourne pas rond côté organisation.
Pour la bouffe, c'était correct, sans plus. Rien de mauvais, mais pour le prix, je m'attendais à des portions un peu plus généreuses & puis beaucoup plus de saveur pour ce type de resto.
Déception… service pratiquement inexistant. Nourriture surchargée, la seul chose que ce restaurant a de bon est la localisation. À la quantité limité de local disponible sur la place Jacque-Cartier j'ai bien hâte que ce restaurant passe à autre chose.
Today I came in with family for my pre-graduation celebration at lunch time. & Talia was our server, she was so nice, funny, & provided excellent service.
