The food was good, the onion soup was different then what I am used to, they had the bread and cheese on the side, it wasn't with the soup, it was excellent, had the submarine, it was good, my wife had the smoke meat poutine, the sauce is sweet , you would think more like a BBQ state, it was good also. The service was excellent.

Avoid this place if you're English. The staff here is ethnocentric and racist and will ignore you flat out. I came here for dinner with my family and the staff didn't acknowledge me when I asked that we be served after we were seated and waiting for 15 minutes. I know they were busy but they could have said something to placate us rather than just grunt an answer. The food is subpar and seems like people just go here to get drunk.

Portion size plummeting? We used to order a large poutine for 2 people. Upon arrival, I notice that the dish is light. Upon opening, disappointment; we see the bottom in several places around. The content is also lower. Im calling to comment and send pictures. No one can help me. Appears to be a small poutine in the middle of an 8 dish.

December 15, 2024

I share my experience...the worst poutine of my entire life...I took to go there was almost no cheese and the sauce was extremely sweet, unheard of for a small one for $15. I will never set foot there. Thats my opinion.

December 8, 2024

Cold food, no more baked potatoes at 7am in the evening and no Caesar salad on the plate. The bathroom upstairs was out of order (the changing table is there) and the waitresses let customers change their babys diaper on the bench in the main entrance Really ordinary

December 8, 2024

Bang bang shrimp as a starter, a real joke ..5 breaded shrimp for $10. Im going to continue to eat them in Sherbrooke...I have twice as many for the same price and its the real bang bang sauce

The beef is a lot worse than before. The last time the pasta served was almost not cooked. The server staff is constantly changing. It seems to be in freefall. I no longer recommend this restaurant.

I really liked it... The 2nd time a little disappointed because I asked if the onion soup is gratinated, I was told that yes but no, its just served with a gratinated crouton on the side. In short, there are worse things but when its the only thing you eat because I only eat a few mouthfuls its disappointing

I ordered a mussels and fries and unfortunately several of them were not opened. When I mentioned this to the waitress, no action was taken to rectify the situation. It should be noted that the rest of the guests at my table ate well and their meal lived up to their expectations.

On the main sign, it says family restaurant. On the other hand, there is no childrens menu for lunches. In addition, lunch included coffee and tea but the waitress refused to change or charge the difference for hot chocolate. So the kids have to eat a $15 lunch in addition to $3 chocolate. Everyone liked their lunch but way too expensive. I wrote you a private message and never got a response. Very disappointing...

I pay for the 8 inch and order the 8 point (a second time I paid) and they tell me... well you see... what do you think about the service?

Very disappointing as a meal. Incomplete sub, without onions, without peppers, mushrooms and a zest of salad! Too much pepperoni and salami, too fatty steak. For the plate of shrimp, they were very good but the rice was very bland, the Greek potatoes were not. The Caesar salad lacks taste. The pizza was excellent but the fries were poor. 1st and last visit. At that price, a real failure...

★★
October 22, 2024

I tried to order online, without success, I finally chose a poutine, which I had prepared over the phone and I went to pick it up. Once I got home, the price on the website was almost $3 less than what I paid according to my invoice. The worst part was when I saw the quantity of poutine... a large poutine that looked like a medium one and the container wasnt even full. Quite disappointed! Luckily it wasnt in bad taste.

★★
September 22, 2024

Big disappointment, even though the restaurant was recommended to us we were very disappointed. Charming staff. Very elaborate menu...too much. Vastly exaggerated prices even if its a bring your own wine option. Service much too fast, not even time to finish a first glass of wine. Portion too big... bland... poorly cooked. Damage ...

Excellent Burger They forgot the coleslaw. Warm and very ordinary frozen fries. Plate of chicken skewers, rice and Greek potatoes were cold I came for my fathers birthday and he was very disappointed to eat cold. Boys in the kitchen wake up!! There were only 16 people in the dining room. This is unacceptable...

If you like paying $20 for a lunch with frozen potatoes, sausages that taste like old fat with a slightly dry orange slice, this is the place for you. I ordered poutine a few times, and it wasnt great. The sauce tastes like cane and ketchup and the fries are frozen. The service is extraordinary for example. The waitresses do a very good job and are great with the kids. Kid-friendliness: The waitresses are very nice and patient with the children.

The room was not well air-conditioned, there was a lot of humidity and the air conditioner was disgusting. We were 4 people 2 the meal was good garlic shrimp and scallops and the other 2 pizza crusts overcooked and dry and perch fillets with too thick breading overcooked and very dry and rice which did not taste great thing. A starter platter that was probably cooked in oil and over-roasted before. Luckily we had good service even if the waitress did nothing about the dissatisfaction with the inedible meals. Honestly a place to avoid

Disappointing, online menu versus in the dining room. A small poutine with pepper sauce cost me $14.50 so when its served its $8.99. You ask for an explanation and what you are told is, well in the dining room its half the size of the small one delivered that you receive on your plate. This is equivalent to a bambino but thats not an indication nowhere does the online menu mention that the prices are only in the dining room This was a first for us and this is the last time, I will opt for another restaurant the next time I go for delivery. .

Bad service, waitress completely unaware of her menu. 3/6 didnt get what they wanted (even though it was on the menu!) As me being celiac, I couldnt even have a salad! (She only offered a Caesar without sauce, without cheese and without crouton... See that I paid $12/15 for a salad without anything ) We always tip 20% if the service is good even if the food is average, its not the waitresss fault but here it was a two for two

2 sous-marins pour apporter all dress qui avait seulement du peperoni, oignon. Le fromage doit être au centre des 2 pains pour donner du soutient ce nétait pas le cas. Alors ça se mangeais très mal, se défesait de tout côté pour un sous-marin tout garni jai vu pas mal mieux. Pas de ketchup, pas de sel, pas de fourchette. Cest mon avis.

December 22, 2023

Very bad experience. I had a daily meal. My soup was way too salty. The basket of bread and soda biscuits was brought to us when we had finished our soup. My Alfredo pasta tasted like canned sauce. I ate bread to get something in my stomach. I wanted to have a soda biscuit with butter and the biscuit tasted like the old soda biscuit which had absorbed the humidity. We had to ask for our drinks three times. However, there werent that many people since the dinner rush had passed by 1:00 p.m. A little refresh of the decoration wouldnt go amiss either. A little white paint on everything brown would add a little brightness to the place.

December 22, 2023

Very very disappointed. This is the first time I have given a negative rating for a restaurant. The shrimp was ordinary, I had 5 small cartons of small Greek potatoes and 2 tablespoons of rice. I advise against it. And I should have read the other reviews before going there.

Good morning, We just ordered at work... the bill arrives and we are a little shocked at the price since we had checked online before ordering. On the WEBSITE it states that the large was 17.59 and the medium 12.99. We are told on the phone that there is only the small or the large one. So we take small... it happens everything is fine... my small cost me 16.69!!! I call the restaurant and they tell me well maam, the take out prices are the most expensive. I ask why and I am told because the portions are bigger than in restaurants. Well...... maybe include the take out menu in your online menu too, that would be good. Your food is excellent but for a first experience its a shame!
