Great food! Even better alcohol! Cozy place! All the staff was great! Our waitress was awesome! Sara-Eve went out of her way... to please us! Would def go back just to have her as our waitress! Tall thin guy at the bar was also great!!!! Read more
Incredibly noisy. A common problem in Montreal but particularly bad here. Could not hear the specials, could not hear each other... without shouting across the table. Service was professional but slow. Food was just ok. I had the fried chicken and detectednothing that would justify the cost. Cocktails are beautiful but tiny. Overall,it was really the noise level that ruined theevening. Restaurants should realize that conversation is an important part of a night out with friends. Read more
Very cute restaurant, it’s very cozy. I didn’t really enjoy sitting at a high top wobbly bar style table but maybe that’s... because I’m pregnant. The food was very good especially the garlic bread! There isn’t a big selection, but the food theyoffer is excellent and the restaurant is very clean and everyone is nice! Read more
it was alright, but they need some acoustic improvements because you can barely hear the people across the table from you. the... fries tasted sorta like fridge? and the chicken could have used some more seasoning. The "spicy" honey wasn't very spicy but wasdelicious. mayo is homemade but may have shared the same fridge taste as the fries, or maybe there is a seasoning in both I'mjust not used to. service was pretty slow and they didn't catch an order of cappuccino at the table. finally, i asked what wasin the drink i ordered and the server made no effort to find out.
