Highly recommend their 24 hour beef bourguignon. Incredibly tender, the meat breaks apart easily & juicy. Definitely a must try!

Also had a tasty apple pie & pea soup. But, the beef stole the show!

Le service rattrape une nourriture décevante,
Je ne suis pas un gros mangeur mais la quantité servie pour les pâtes carbonara était ridicule. Les pâtes n'étaient pas assez cuites, & cela à pris 45 min pour arriver..
Les pâtes à la morue étaient correctes, la sauce était bonne mais le poisson de qualité très moyenne. Quantité de pâtes très réduite aussi, mais au moins il y avait des légumes...
Heureusement le service est +++, on nous a offert un super bon dessert en compensation.
Je recommanderai plus cet endroit pour un déjeuner le matin, ou une boisson chaude avec une bonne pâtisserie, que pour un repas à midi (du moins les pâtes).

Service vraiment gentil & efficace.
Goût de la nourriture moyenne ..
Ambiance trop sombre & musique beaucoup trop forte.
Je n'ai pas l'intention d'y retourner & de le recommander.

By far the best tomato soup I ever had. Highly recommended with the grilled cheese sandwich. This is a good, wholesome food restaurant. Well portioned meals. Prices are very good. Joe & our server were very polite & welcoming. Great restaurant atmosphere too. If you want a fancy dining experience, go elsewhere. If you want good food, attentive staff, in a warm atmosphere, & at a fair price, this is your place.
