    It was a full house on a Tuesday night, so we had to wait for quite a while before they even offered us water. The food was decent overall. However: our waiter was a jittery guy who seemed to be out of place there. The other thing was that when the servers were cutting fresh bread for the patrons they did it with their bare hands, hm….

    Dear Lesia, it seems that the overly busy evening put stress on some of our newest team members. We have shared your feedback with our staff to make sure everyone stays calm and composed—especially in the middle of this week's Grand Prix excitement in Montreal! As for the bread, everyone has been reminded to handle the warm baguettes with a cloth napkin and place the slices in the basket with tongues. There was a faux pas and the clock has been reset. We hope we'll have the opportunity to regain your trust. We'd love to welcome you again. Fede Directeur de l'hospitalité

    Bouillabaisse et confit de canard inoubliables! Service et suggestions du service parfaits! Le niveau de bruit vient du fait que vous étions sur la terrasse et que c’est une route passante. Nous y retournerons sans faute!
