Food was excellent, our second time there and will be going again. Service was okay, waitresse was nice but no meal suggestion as for the Table d'hote, had to ask twice for water before we got any, our drink went dry and took a while before she came and asked if we wanted another.

What a nice little restaurant! I absolutely didn't expect the ambiance, service and quality of the food. Just across the bridge from Quebec City. They have a small menu of 3 appetizers and 4/5 main courses. Which is usually a good sign in terms of quality. I had the tuna salad on brioche and the pepper steak. Both were great and definitely good portions. The steak came with fries and vegetables. The price is fantastic for the quality of the food. To top it off, the deserts were tasty and very affordable.

All in French, but perfectly fine for this non-speaker (use Google translate.) Tea seemed brewed with the lightest touch of sugar - refreshingly delicious! Vegetable soup was puréed to perfection and seasoned well. The chili con carne was excellent! The pulled pork had a tender texture and the bread was so soft. General Tao's chicken was surprisingly moist, lightly battered and crispy. Nothing was too salty or too sweet, just exploding with flavor! Kudos to the chef! I don't think you can get a bad meal here? Everything was top notch.

We arrived 16 cyclists without prior reservation and we sat on the terrace. The place as beautiful terrace. We were served quickly and efficiently, the person who seemed to be the manager was fast and efficient and very friendly. I had a capucino but some people in our group had food and everybody was content. Those who had french fries said they were some of the best they ever had.

I ordered scallops with shrimp skewers. Even though the waitress had told me that there would be 3 large scallops, I only received 2. At $34 for the meal only I was expecting at least 3 scallops! I was disappointed and it showed in my face... As an apology, she gave me free coffee and cheesecake without me having to argue. I therefore gave 5 stars for the service because it is rare that we do not have to debate to compensate for inadequate service! The draft beer (Tremblay) was fresh, foamy and very good. The cooking of the 2 large scallops was perfect. And the meal was very good. The sauce that came with it seemed superfluous to me and hid the taste of the seafood, so I didnt eat it. A garlic bun would have been more appropriate in my opinion. The cheesecake with fresh blueberries and blueberry coulis was delicious. The coffee... pretty ordinary. The waitresses were friendly and relaxed. Pleasant atmosphere. Plate with pint of beer... $50 + 18% tip.... Parking: Right next to Honco Stadium...

Very nice restaurant. Pub style. Impeccable service Very kind I went to lunch. Cons: You should make your Hellman mayonnaise, its poison and the potatoes are super good so it deserves a nice mayonnaise! The beans taste the same as at Normandin Ark. Id have to mark the wifi code on the wall... I have to ask for the view, its not a big grip on my cell here. If it is accomplished at least... I will provide a comment 100% promised Otherwise great service

Amazing experience at this restaurant. The service is number 1, pleasant atmosphere and all the food is excellent. There is no special allergy menu, but they are very careful and there is a dedicated toaster for gluten-free people. They adapt the food and they also suggest replacing foods with others. I had no problem eating there and no discomfort afterwards despite being celiac and having lactose intolerance. My husband and son had the brunch plate and I had a smoked salmon omelette. Everything was delicious. Pleasantly surprised by the ham and salmon which were made on site (they were not small slices already prepared). Also the fruits on the plate were not just kinds of melons like in many restaurants, but small fruits. Excellent! I can also only talk about the decadent smoothies!! THANKS Dietary restrictions: I had no problem eating there and no discomfort afterwards despite being celiac and having lactose intolerance.

Im currently at the restaurant right now. We had a reservation for 6:00 p.m. The service is so slow. It s now 7:45 p.m. and I ve just received my cold soup. Im really bitter about the situation. Im so hungry that Im starting to not feel well. The main course better be solid to make up for the lost stars. We are a group of around twenty people. Everyone is angry.

I told them about my allergy to Kiwis and as they couldnt assure me that the Kiwis hadnt touched the others, they took them in a separate container. Very nice attention. My lunch was exquisite.
