Unarguable Fancy, neat & chill inner atmosphere. Some recommend the food while others not, hard to favor everyone's taste bud. To my experience, love the famous pot-en-pot soup, but the puff pastry on top is not excellent enough, hard, cold, without a rich buttery smell. The Quebec baby back rib differs from we ate in other place, seems overgrilled to feature a crispy & firm texture. Meat is easily off the bone, just I personally like the tender & juicy texture. Seafood linguine is recommended, no flaws. Hot chicken is plain to us. Definitely should improve the fries, not crispy hot. We are not big fans for fries, so don't ask for a replace. As they are an important side for most serves, so means a lot.

Went there for brunch. Had the best server with a wonderful smile. Get plenty of food & if you do the filtered coffee, it's unlimited. Cappuccino is not unlimited. Apple butter on toast was interesting & good.

I ordered pea soup, hot chicken & duck salad. The salad is very delicious, highly recommended. The hot chicken & soup are normal, I really regret nit ordering pork ribs.

Ce n'était pas prévu, mais on y a mangé deux fois la même journée. & on a autant adoré notre brunch que notre souper. Menu d'hôte le soir vraiment pas excessif. & sur les deux services, on a trouvé les serveurs hyper attentionnés :) C'est sûr, on reviendra lors de notre prochain séjour à QC !!

Cozy restaurant with delicious food, but be forewarned, be prepared to wait. Our food took about an hour to come out from sitting down. They never offered to bring out what was ready, hence some of our plates were warm rather than hot. I would have given the food 5-stars if the food was hot when served.
