Nous avons adoré notre passage au resto en ce beau samedi Saint! Un gros bémol par contre... La dame à la guérite du stationnement en sortant a été carrément désagréable, irrespectueuse & d'une froideur inouïe! Elle a pris plaisir à nous rabaisser pcq le passage de notre ticket de sortie ne fonctionnait pas dans la machine. Nous étions 3 dans la voiture & ça nous a tous mis extrêmement mal à l'aise. Elle n'est vraiment pas à sa place! Ça nous a un peu gâché notre envie de retourner dans ce resto...

can't say enough good things about this place! we had amazing service with a great atmosphere. our service was a peach & was very knowledgeable of the menu. I opted for the fixed menu meal for $45, had absolutely amazing brussels sprouts for an app, followed by flawless tuna & ending with a delish chocolate tart. boyfriend got scallops which he loved, an AMAZINGly tasted burger, & the fried ice cream which was our favorite bite of the entire night!!

Excellent view by the river. Good lunch options & extensive alcohol menu. The waiters are attentive. The atmosphere is great. Free parking for 2 hours is also great.

Déçu. N'a pas été à la hauteur de sa réputation ni des attentes. Les entrées ont été servies alors que nous entamions à peine les apéritifs. Le camembert fondu... n'était pas fondu. Les pétoncles, toutes petites, n'étaient pas grillées, elles étaient brûlées, créant un liquide noir dans la sauce.

Le risotto n'était pas aussi crémeux que cette recette l'exige... Recommande tout de même ce resto...
