Do not be misled by another reviewer. Even the avocado toast has dairy in the guac. The only vegan options our waiter offered were coffee, tea, & potatoes. Even if the restaurant's reply below states they can make modifications, none was offered.

J'ai été très déçue par ma visite. Je m'attendais à un restaurant de renom & la nourriture étaient bien ordinaire, voir pas très bonne. Le tartare était coupé grossièrement & le saumon de mon fils beaucoup trop cuit.

Excellent repas! Avons pris la formule table d'hôte a 40$. C'était généreux & délicieux, rapport qualité prix A1. Le service était un peu lent, mais le resto était bondé alors on comprend. C'est un peu bruyant aussi, donc pour une ambiance intime on repassera. Ça n'empêche pas des groupes d'amis ou des familles de passer un beau moment !
