Le serveur rien à dire ! Super sympa & très pro.
Par contre niveau nourriture c'était bon mais les patates étaient beaucoup trop salées & ailées. Au niveau du bacon dans les oeufs bene il étaient beaucoup trop dur & sec donc il n'avait plus de goût & c'était pas pratique à mange

We had the Onion soup , a perfect mix of layers, melted cheese on top of a soft toast, a generous amount of onions in the perfect broth. Then we had an amazing bisque with lobster, prawns & scalops in a delicious creamy sauce. Highly recommend!

Ne vous fiez pas à ma tête de Terminator T1000, je ne me restaure pas qu'avec de l'huile… mdr

Un endroit familial qui à vu passer des générations de citoyens & de visiteurs du Vieux-Québec affamés. Le menu est intéressant & convivial.

Les assiettes sont bien garnies avec des produits de qualité.

La clientèle est servie avec le sourire &, pour une des rares fois en cette période de folie, l'addition est acceptable.

Pour un déjeuner entre amis ou plus simplement un repas en solitaire, ce resto charmera les plus difficiles.

We went here at New Year's Eve! I ordered the duck but I liked the pork chop more, which my partner ordered. We ended up practically, switching food because she likes the duck more. :)) we both had IPA beers which pairs well with the food. We were with a couple of our friends & they ordered the ribs & pork chop. The ribs were delicious but I really would recommended the pork chop more. The service is also spot on. The place & the washroom are really clean & smell nice. I would definitely go back to eat here again.
