Très mauvaise expérience la dernière fois que nous y sommes allés entre amis. Cela a pris au moins une vingtaine de minutes avant que le serveur vienne nous voir pour commander nos cafés. Jusque là, rien de dramatique. Après plusieurs minutes on commande nos repas & lorsqu'ils arrivent, il a eu une erreur avec mon assiette. Pas de problème je demande l'oeuf manquant à part, mais je ne reçois pas la bonne cuisson. Ce n'est pas grave, ça arrive. Là où ça se corse, c'est lors des paiements de nos factures. Le serveur a malencontreusement fait payer nos factures à la table à côté de la nôtre. Il nous propose qu'une personne de notre table paye la facture de la table voisine pour pouvoir fermer sa table & nous rembourser la différence (?) . Cela ne fonctionne pas puisque nous souhaitons payer individuellement nos reçus. Il nous mentionne alors qu'il doit s'informer avec sa gérante, mais que cela va être long. Cela a pris au moins une quarantaine de minutes. Il restait pratiquement juste notre table dans le restaurant... Lorsqu'on a demandé un suivi, le serveur nous a mentionné que c'était pas de sa faute & qu'il avait proposé une solution rapide & que nous avons refusé... En quoi les erreurs du serveur deviennent notre responsabilité Bref, j'étais une clientèle régulière & ça m'a enlevé le goût d'y retourner. De plus, mon ami a envoyé deux courriels à la direction & aucun retour, très ordinaire.

No suelo dejar comentarios en Google, pero este restaurante lo merece. El servicio incomparable, una mesera demasiado gentil y atenta. La comida absolutamente deliciosa y los platos muy equilibrados. Un must en Québec

Was a pretty great meal! We ordered the French onion soup, which was just right. The size was not too big, not too small. It was just enough & we still had plenty of room for the main course. The bread on the soup was nice & crispy, not soggy at all (a common issue I see with french onion soup). For mains, we ordered the cochon dingue style hot chicken & the BBQ rubbed pork chop with corn salsa. The hot chicken was delightful. The toast was perfectly toasty, with gravy, cheese curds, chicken, & peas on top. The chicken was moist & delicious. It was a great meal. The pork chop was very juicy & delicious. Meal was great. The service in the beginning was good, & quick. Once we finished our soups, we waited a very long time to get our entrees. Customers who had arrived after we received our soups had received their entrees & practically finished them before we were addressed. The manager ended up coming by & checking in on us & getting our food to us. A moment of frustration on our end, having to wait, but a good ending.

My son thought his burger was perfect. Not a lot of vegetarian options as you can imagine. French onion soup was great, salads just okay.
