Our children ordered the kids spaghetti. The amount of spaghetti that came in the bowl was less than half full. My daughter & her friend ate their meals & said they were still hungry. The portion size really was tiny. She's small for her age & isn't a big eater. So if she wanted more it was definitely a small portion. We asked for a little more. They brought another bowl. When the bill came, they charged both families for another kids meal. We were not informed beforehand that we would be charged that much. When we asked, the manager wasn't very pleasant & unfortunately the discussion didn't go well. It's too bad, because the rest of our food was really good. & our daughter liked the spaghetti. The manager told us it's the same portion they give in every meal. I'd say that portion size is too small.

Je prend quelque instant pour souligner le haut niveau d'excellence de Gabriel, notre jeune serveur.

Il s'est montré attentionné, chaleureux, convivial. Je vous assure, il est une perle rare! Notre expérience était fabuleuse, hors norme, fantastique, grâce à lui.

J'ai été surpris d'apprendre qu'il est en poste depuis seulement un mois, alors qu'il maîtrise parfaitement l'art du service. Bravo !

Excellent service. Le serveur était sympathique, souriant & rapide. Plusieurs places sur deux étages aux tables & bar. Plus grand qu'il n'y paraît! Style moderne & comptoir du bar (environ 20 places) en marbre. Chaises hautes assez confortable.
