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.

Eating here was an overall amazing experience. The staff were very polite & served the food quickly, even though they had many other customers. The restaurant is on a beautiful, cozy street filled with various restaurants & shops nearby. The food was delicious, especially the bread & cheese, & the salad with Greek-style chicken which honestly reminded me of home. I would recommend dining here & would gladly return.

We ordered salmon & restaurant specialty dish & asked for medium rare but got medium to almost well done. Salmon was decent.

Steak was very chewy & the sauce was ok nothing spectacular as mentioned from reviews.

Salad was disappointing - simply a few leaves + some dressing is drizzled on (the salad). Soup & dessert were okay.

Very surprised that their specialty dish received good reviews.

Food is delicious. Steak is cooked to perfection. We went here twice in three days & had the steak dinner that they are famous for - includes soup, salad, steak & homemade French fries, protiferoles with chocolate sauce & coffee. I would recommend a reservation otherwise you may have to wait quite a while.

I had a great experience at this place on a very busy Saturday night. The table d'hote was great value, I enjoyed a soup, salad, steak, dessert, & coffee for under 50$. My daughter is a picky eater & managed to finish everything on her plate. The sauce was my favourite part of the meal. Service was fast, & my water was never empty. I will definitely be back.

Les plats sont bons & bien servis.
Le service est rapide sans oublier d être sympathique.
Les prix sont mesurés. Bonne experience. Nous avons bien mangé

It's in the center of old town. The staff was great & patient. It's famous for steak & fries. Strongly recommend going for the prefix deal. With an additional $14 Canadian dollars you get salad, tea/coffee, & dessert. The steak was tender & the fries were crispy.

A 5oz one was enough for me.

J'avais pris une salade au canard, qui était bonne, mais trop peu de viande pour le prix.
