About

AFFAMÉS D’HISTOIRE?

Le 160, rue Saint-Paul s’est toujours avéré un lieu où les ingrédients et le service de qualité supérieurs font la loi. Fondé en 1860 par Narcisse Rioux, le magasin général Chez Rioux & Pettigrew fournissait aux restaurateurs, aux épiciers, aux hôpitaux et aux communautés religieuses une grande variété de produits locaux ou d’importation.

Barils de mélasse, poches de farine, sucre, gruau, fruits et légumes en conserves, épices, noix, raisins secs, chocolat, bonbons présentés sur des étalages… On y trouvait même de l’alcool jusqu’à la création de la Commission des liqueurs en 1921!

Plusieurs reliques empruntées à cette époque ont trouvé leur place dans notre décor actuel. Vous souhaitez vivre l’immersion signée Rioux & Pettigrew?

If I could write one review about one restaurant in the world ......it would be this one. They have an actual genius who invented (yes invented) our drinks. One after the other SEVEN different times Simon brought us drinks that broke our brain they were so delicious. Unbelievable evening. The food is as good as everyone says. We had all four courses & each one was absolutely delicious, but those drinks wow! He better be famous one day. He made them up on the spot based on our tastes. Highly highly highly recommend!! It'll be a once in a lifetime experience.

I can see why this restaurant gets such a high rating. The service was impeccable, & our server knew quite a lot about the wine menu. My husband had the pork belly which had been marinated in maple syrup & black garlic, while I enjoyed the seafood bouillabaisse with baby fennel. We finished with a cheese platter. Somebody from the kitchen brought out the meals & explained the flavours to each person in the restaurant. The flavour combinations were amazing & the menu is seasonal, using local produce. Definitely recommend this place for a gourmet meal that is prepared with care.

Excellent service, beautiful & delicious food & a cozy atmosphere ! 10/10 would recommend! The portions might look small but you'll actually feel full at the end of the courses. Simply amazing!

We had great expectations, & the kitchen delivered.....eventually. This restaurant could be great. Could be. But is not currently. Stay away until they get their act together. The pluses: The bread is amazing, the food was delicious, the ambience convivial. But..... The service: From the start things got off to the wrong foot. We asked for two flutes of champagne & were served about 5 tablespoons of stale champagne...meager & begrudging --& stale--servings. What We decided to go straight to a bottle of white wine to avoid whatever nonsense was going on with the laughable pour. We immediately surmised some consultant had come in to provide profit margin suggestions. Never good news for diners. The logistics: the general manager here deserves a rating of "huge epic fail". While we waited.....& waited.....& waited...trays of food were being hustled out to a private party.... at the expense of the restaurant clientele. We had a look....was it really worth it to ignore & subjugate your core restaurant clientele for 15 (15 ! Yes, I counted) millennials in beanies, striped shirts & sporting questionable facial hair fashions? So short sighted. The general manager should think about another career. The staff is good, the food is good, the decor is good. The logistics are horrible. We'll be telling everyone to stay away until they get their priorities straight. & yes, they comped us a delicious carpaccio (highly recommended) & tried to comp us bread. But really! Really. You can do better.

Loved our "blind" meal here. The chef truly understands flavours & they all complemented each other wonderfully. Highly recommend.
