On est venus souper car on se souvenait être venus dans le passé & avoir aimé notre expérience.
L'endroit est vraiment cute & les décorations sont jolies, & on a eu un bon service, mais la nourriture était TELLEMENT trop chère & ordinaire. On a pris du boeuf Wellington, qui était bleu (presque pas cuit) & la pâte en-dessous était crue. Ça goûtait bon mais d'avoir cette cuisson quand tu ne l'as pas demandé, c'était vraiment ordinaire. On s'attend à un certaine niveau pour un plat de 45$+.
Je ne ferai pas la même erreur deux fois.

Do not skip on the meat pie. The combination of salty, sweet & pickled notes were hard to beat. The servers were so helpful & kind. They didn't mind we were in a rush & helped us out quick!!

Best Onion Soup I've ever had! Now, I compare all others to the one I ate here. Nothing else has measured up. Ever! Overall taste was excellent but the house-made cheese was 100% a winner!
