Cadre sympathique, nous avons pris des pâtes carbonara ainsi que des poutines & du poisson.
Nous sommes presque tous tombés malade…

Nous avons passé un agréable moment bien que le marketing autour de la poutine illimité est assez douteux & peu clair pour ceux qui ne sont pas habitués. Il faut d'abord payé 15 dollars , ce qui semble très peu rentable étant donné que c'est très gras . Ajoutons à cela qu'une serveuse blonde nous à ouvertement dit «  oui vous pouvez commander votre poutine c'est gratuit avec votre plat » sans aucune précision supplémentaire, pour nous dire au moment du paiement que «  rien n'est gratuit dans la vie » ….. La poutine nous as été finalement retiré mais faites attention!
Mise à part cette expérience le service est agréable & la nourriture assez bonne .

We visited on Saturday & thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I had the Shrimp & Seafood Gratin (Coquilles de fruits de mer) & it was just as hearty & comforting as I had hoped.

I really appreciated that there were options for our picky teenager as well such as pizza & sandwiches. For him, it's pizza, burger, repeat.

Great value with prix fixe menu option as well which include a soup & dessert with your choice of 4 mains.

There is construction on Rue de Buade in front of the restaurant. Do not let this deter you.

I was disappointed in my cod dish. Very small piece of fish & too many capers for my liking. Fortunately, my husband's salmon dish was better than mine.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Das Frühstück war auch sehr gut. Insbesondere das hausgemachte Blaubeerjoghurt mit Granol a war sensationell.
