Avec un groupe d'ami.es, on aime bien se retrouver dans un resto. L'autre soir, on voulait regarder le match du CH. On s'est donc rendu du côté bistro. Nous avons dû à 3 reprises (!) demander du service pour la table (& l'endroit n'était pas plein...). Les personnes au service semblaient plus intéressées à discuter avec leurs collègues assis au bar & à regarder leur cellulaire qu'à s'occuper des client.es. J'ai commandé un panini au cerf avec frites. C'était correct, sans plus. Il faisait un froid glacial sur place, nous avons gardé nos manteaux à l'intérieur. En bref, il faudrait revoir l'approche du service & du confort de votre clientèle.

Bien que nous ayons pris la peine de réserver une table, nous n'en avions pas à l'arrivée !
Le serveur nous a expliqué qu'ils n'avaient pas réussi à gérer à cause du match de foot...
20$ pour des natchos ordinaires sans avocat: c'est exagéré !
Expérience décevante
