    Tout était absolument délicieux ! La nourriture et les vins étaient excellents, le service attentionné et irréprochable. Nous avons adoré la terrasse privée à l’arrière, pleine de charme. Une superbe expérience, j’y retournerai sans hésiter.

    I love this restaurant - one of the best value for money in Ottawa. The chef is so creative with each dish, making it not only delicious but very unique. The dishes are just as good if not better than many high end restaurants but at a much better price. The service is also amazing. Highly recommend!

    Once again we enjoyed your excellent food and wines and beer. and top notch service It was so nice to be recognized and greeted warmly on our return. Our guests were from Montreal and we wanted to demonstrated that Ottawa could match Montreal's bistro scene. You did the job admirably. The main challenge for us is the high levels of ambient noise, it makes conversation difficult. With luck the weather will allow us to try the outdoor patio for our next visit.
