My goodness, I don’t even know where to start. We were a party of 4 adults with a small toddler. Some of the food we ordered was passable, but some, terrible. The steak was unseasoned, the duck confit was clearly left for a long time on the counter because the sauce had a layer on top already, the profiteroles were terrible as well. There were SO MANY fruit flies. We had probably 3-4 circulating around our table and on OUR PLATES. This is UNNACEPTABLE. Service was also SO slow for a restaurant that didn’t have too many people that night. We didn’t even bother sending back the food because we had a baby with us and knew it would take a long time to get the food again, so it wasn’t worth it. The only good thing was the crème brûlée. I wasn’t expecting much from the restaurant, but this experience was beyond horrible.

Les lieux sont superbes et le service impeccable. Quand à la table, c'est très dispendieux pour le type et la qualité des mets offerts. C'est le problème de la restauration maintenant .

Wonderful! The ambience, service, wine and food were all outstanding. What an elegant and classy restaurant. We really enjoyed the French onion soup, beet salad, joue de boeuf and scallops paired with a nice Beaujolais. A real Montreal gem!
