Since opening in 1983, its Paris and Geneva- inspired French style has been its trademark: steak, fries, and secret sauce.

Many diners appreciate the generous table d'hôte menus which provide a well-rounded meal including soup, salad, steak, and desserts like profiteroles at a reasonable price point. While the atmosphere is frequently described as warm, cozy, and inviting, the attentive and professional service provided by the staff often enhances the overall dining experience.

Ate here just today as arranged by Taipan tours.
Soup was salty, Steak was bland & dessert was so-so. My husband ate salmon, nothing special about it. If you're with Taipan tours better to skip this French Dinner. I think there are better Restaurants nearby & lot's of other choices really.

Excellent poutine (with steak & curds) & local wine! The service was friendly & efficient too. The atmosphere was relaxing & it was easy to talk. Dessert was just the right size, especially after poutine.

Ordered the entrecôte table d'hôte (7 oz was a very generous portion given it comes with soup salad & dessert). Service was really good. We were seated in the basement next to the wine cellar, cozy & quiet compared to the bustle of outdoors seating. Steak was not out of this world but the overall meal was good. Had to ask for extra sauce but that came promptly.

We had the steak frites combo & the steak frites didn't disappoint, it came with soup & tea but the real treat was the dessert. We had a nice server. Would recommend.
