Le décor, l'ambiance & le site géographique sont exceptionnels, les prix du menu trop élevés & le verre de vin rempli au 1/3 à 15$, c'est abusif!
Par contre nous avons eu un excellent service & le personnel très sympathique!

La nourriture était excellente. Nous ne pouvions plus parler en raison du plaisir pris en mangeant! La joie de boeuf braisée ne nécessitait qu'un couteau beurre tant elle était tendre!

Nous sommes passés pour un verre, les cocktails étaient délicieux. Par contre, l'accueil a été froid & le service au bar tout autant. Aucun sourire de votre personnel & aucun remerciement. On a reçu la facture & la personne est partie sans jamais revenir.
