My wife & I went here on Friday night & we thoroughly enjoyed our time. We split the French Onion soup which we loved as our starter. My wife had the seafood stew & I had the Poutine with beef cheek. Both were hits. Be forewarned, the Poutine is HUGE & could easily be split between two people. The beef cheek was amazing. We left very full & satisfied.

We ate here recently just for a drink & snack. The French onion soup was ok but the foie gras on a piece of toast for $27 was ridiculously overpriced & so bland. Shame because the service was good & the place is cute as. Maybe skip the pate & try something else….

Very good food in a very rustic intimate setting. One of the best meals we have ever had. Mussels were fairly average but good & the snails were very good. Beef cheeks were amazing. Creme brulee was also amazing. Very nice place for 2 to 4. Any larger group would be a stretch to fit in this place. Have front patio as well. Would come here again & again.

Found this place doing some research into must visit restaurants & boy, did we choose well.

I messed up our reservation but they were able to accommodate us right away.

The food was oustanding.
The four of us shared the:
-soup du jour (which was a velvety leek & potato cream soup)
- beet salad
- scallop seviche
- mussels with white wine & garlic
- flank steak
- roasted chicken
- beef cheek (which was the best beef cheek I've ever had, so tender you could use a spoon!)
- I highly recommend ordering the tarte tatin for dessert (Chef Philippe Racine's version is amazing!)
- they treated us to some French coulous with dessert (we loved it so much we purchased 2 bottles to bring home!)

& our server Daevon was just a delight. & guided us through the menu.

We will definitely be back again.

Merci pour tout!
