    I visited this restaurant with my friend and while the food was acceptable, the service was very disappointing. The staff were unnecessarily rude when serving the dishes and clearing the table, which made the experience uncomfortable. Given the lack of courtesy and attentiveness, I do not feel the service warranted leaving more tips. Good manners and professionalism are key to a pleasant dining experience, and unfortunately, this was not the case here. I hope the management addresses this issue to improve customer satisfaction.

    While the food was underwhelming, the service was top notch. Our waiter deserved ALL THE STARS. Also the vibe with the live music was incredible. Furthermore we were welcomed with a toddler and felt very accepted. 🙂. Thanks for a wonderful Christmas dinner!

    Souper du 24 décembre formidable, le menu accord mets et vins était parfaitement conçu. Notre serveur, qui travaille au resto depuis 27 ans connaissait son menu, ses vins et surtout était vraiment sympathique et malgré une soirée très très occupée, il a pris le temps de nous faire rire, sourire, il a su faire un différence dans notre expérience. Toute l’équipe était également très attentionnée. Le band était très divertissant, composé de musiciens de qualité. Merci à tous, nous avons hâte d’y retourner!
