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?

This restaurant was wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about them. The service was excellent, there was attention to detail in the food & the service. The food was creative but able to accommodate dietary restrictions. Wine list had a good variety. The atmosphere was warm & cozy with feeling of being in someone's home. Kudos to the chef & staff for a great food experience.

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.

Wonderful blind tasting. The local beers & liquor are a must try as well.

Didn't try the wine pairing but I will when I come back

A knock-out dining experience. Every member of staff was kind & professional & our lovely server took excellent care of us. We had the tasting menu & they catered to my raw apple allergy. The wine pairing was thoughtful & they give generous pours ;)

One of our top dining experiences in the city. Cheers for that!

First time at this restaurant. We enjoyed the seasonal blind tasting menu. Delicious & beautifully plated. The staff was very knowledgeable about the food, the wine, the cocktails. Very attentive. A wonderful experience, & we highly recommend the restaurant & Chef Dominic's creations.
