The menu emphasizes Italian-inspired bistro staples, utilizing fresh ingredients to assemble classic pasta dishes and crisp salads that highlight regional agricultural output.

Many guests praise the delicious pizza, pasta, and salmon tartare, often highlighting the quality of the wood-fired dishes and the availability of gluten-free options.

Nourriture très bonne & service agréable & courtois. Vin au verre plutôt coûteux (verre moyen à 17 $, petit verre à 10 $). Table située du côté du bar, donc un peu bruyant vers la fin du repas.

Service très efficace & énergique, un brin familier. Contente que la demande de notre réservation de nous placer dans un coin plus tranquille ait été prise en compte car l'endroit est très bruyant, les tables étant trop proches les unes des autres. Cocktails délicieux mais un peu chers. Bonne nourriture, sans être très impressionnant - je pense que j'avais des grosses attentes compte tenu les commentaires que j'en ai eu. Portions suffisantes & aliments frais.
