The duck confit is good. The steak was only OK as it wasn't the best cut & didn't have the best flavor.

The steak wasn't the best tasting & was a bit tough. But other than that the experience & the service was great.

Cocktail Mai Tai très différent des recettes habituelles, mais excellent si on aime les cocktails sucrés. Il y a d'ailleurs de nombreuses bouteilles de spiritueux en décoration. Service efficace. En revanche le menu d'hôte a été assez décevant. La soupe en entrée était bonne mais l'entrecôte (le nom du restaurant !) n'était pas aussi bonne que ce que nous espérions. Même si la sauce était originale. Les profiteroles étaient sèches (& froides) comme si l'assiette sortait d'un frigo.

We enjoyed our meal here. Really enjoyed our waiter...he was super helpful & attentive. The food was excellent...starting with the salad & cream of onion soup. I got the chicken & root veggies...my wife got the steak & frites. Steak wasn't as good as she hoped but was ok. Beautiful space on a chilly night.

Malheureusement, ce restaurant ne vaut pas le rapport qualité-prix. La cuisson de mon steak était mal faite (bien cuit au lieu de saignant) alors j'ai proposé une réduction du prix plutôt que de gaspiller, mais ils ont préféré le jeter & recommencer. Le dessert était des profiteroles qui étaient gelés comme de la roche. La serveuse nous a affirmé que le coulis au chocolat était chaud, alors que ce n'était pas le cas & notre assiette était gelée. Les deux serveurs étaient plutôt antipathiques & nous avons donc payer un repas beaucoup trop coûteux pour que ça vaut (autant la qualité de la nourriture que le service à la clientèle). Je ne le recommande pas.
