One of the nicer Bistros in Shawinigan. The food is really good, though I have mixed feelings about the pricing of some items. It's a nice place for a casual date!

I was really looking forward to try this restaurant; it turned out to be quite disappointing. Everything in the look and the frills, not much for the rest. Food was way overpriced; we had the shareable plate with steak, shrimps and pasta. If you take the pasta off the plate, you are left with... almost nothing. We basically paid for an enormous portion of disappointing penne. As for the drink, not a big variety of wine available in glasses, mostly bottles. We had rhum n coke, only rhum available is Captain Morgan; which is such a shame since we have amazing local product( Morbleu, Chic Choc..) and its was mixed with flat coke. All in all, for 200$, you can have a muuuuuuch better culinary experience elsewhere!

Went to Shawinigan on business and decided to have dinner at Le Radoteux and I have to admit it's one of the best restaurant I've ever been to. Had the Surf & Turf Pasta...amazing and the Piña Colada cheesecake... delicious. Will definitely make the drive from Montreal just for that restaurant. Also our waitress Allyson was great, exceptional service.

Very nice spot, we had the chance to stay upstairs at La Suite and the breakfast was included at the restaurant downstairs. Breakfast is great, good portion. We loved the restaurant and the service so we had to come back for dinner a couple of times. Service is top notch, the gentleman on the floor is always everywhere making sure that everyone is satisfied. The food now, the menu is great and diversified, you need to try the fish and chips, one of the best I had and even the rest of the menu is quite tasty! Restaurant is great, ambiance reminds me of restaurant/lounge in Ibiza, Spain...good lounge music not too loud, great decor! I will be back for sure when I'm in the region, food is great and staff is amazing with the clients, make you fell like home! Stongly recommend, won't be disapointed with the quality of the food!

The food is good and the waiters are friendly. But we had to wait a long time to get our food, especially with 2 kids not really fun. But for the food, I would definitely recommend this place!

Visited Shawinigan for a business trip. We were a large groupe of around 20 people one night among there other customers. Not sure they were accustomed to such large groups because the service was a bit slow. However they did play close attention to us and followed up with us regularly so the service was quite good as was the food !

We made reservations for 50 people at Radoteux for our post-wedding brunch. They made us a reduced menu to make cooking easier for them, but were flexible to accommodate our guests diets. The food is good at respectable prices. The service was long for some tables, which was the negative point, but which was also understandable with a large group on a Sunday lunchtime. There are few restaurants in the area that can accommodate large groups and we are very happy to have chosen Radoteux!

Our perinatal organization offered an outing (4 to 6) to mothers with their babies with the aim of promoting family outings in public places. Le Radoteux was 100% on board with our project and the owners, cooks and employees received us with great enthusiasm and a very big smile! It was a wonderful evening and the mothers present were happy to feel that they were not disturbing by going out with their babies to the restaurant! Thank you for the excellent food and superb service! This restaurant is warm, friendly and family-friendly! -Breastfeeding-Sun

Last experience. The first time was a bad memory but my partner and I decided to try again. Result of this last attempt: 2 lukewarm cold burgers, extras without warning us and glasses of water in the room. Good service but paying more than $70 for good service is very expensive!

Everything comes in time to those who wait! During our visit to Radoteux last Sunday, our experience was unfortunately marked by a particularly long wait. As soon as we arrived, although there were only around twenty customers, it quickly became apparent that only one server had to take care of all the tables. It took over an hour to receive our first coffees, and the other drinks we ordered were forgotten, forcing us to ask for them again 15-20 minutes later. The server, while friendly and apologetic, seemed obviously overwhelmed by the situation, which contributed to the messy service. The food, when served, was good, warranting my second star, but the errors and prolonged wait weighed heavily on our overall experience. Ultimately, my rating reflects this experience, as I can hardly recommend this restaurant on this basis. Better organization and a larger team would probably have made it possible to meet my expectations. I would have preferred to be told that they couldnt serve me rather than to do it badly!

No cook so just food prepared by a kitchen assistant The waitress orders our drinks and when we are served begins to order our dishes And there: I dont have a cook, we only make classic dishes, just quick ones. Wow, great mentality, we had booked 2 hours before and traveled 30 kilometers for that! We want to take our beers to leave and she throws us 4 poor plastic glasses without lids even though there were 5 of us In addition, there were around twenty people in the room Only 1 table served with food!!! I dont recommend it but apparently WHEN THEY HAVE A COOK the food would be good!

Nice lounge restaurant but on the other hand I waited at least almost half an hour in the entrance before we came to see if they had answered me finally we managed to get a table we still waited a good 20 minutes and we had to stop a waitress to get a drink otherwise she passed back and forth without stopping at our table but on the other hand the order for our dinner was still quick beautiful atmosphere with a large outdoor terrace nice waitress expensive food but good it there were a lot of people

EXTREMELY LONG SERVICE The food is delicious, but the service is really long... When I went there, there was almost no one there, maybe 7 tables at most. We called to reserve because there were 3 of us. We arrived at 6:30 p.m. and we left at 9:45 p.m. 3 hours of waiting for starter, meal and dessert. If youre patient its a great place, if youre really hungry I recommend something quicker..

Unfortunately, this establishment has lost its overall quality over the past 1-2 years. I understand the lack of staff, but leaving only one server and one cook for Sunday lunch time... that leaves something to be desired. Courteous service, but very slow and several oversights and errors in the order. The waiter was left to his own devices. Correct food, nothing more. Too bad, but the place doesnt compare to what it used to be. In addition, we should be informed that we can only use a gift card to pay if the amount of our bill is greater than the value of the gift card. Too bad all that.

what a bad experience already upon entering with one of the bosses (Indrasen Teeroovengadum). As it is written that this gentleman attended hotel school in Switzerland and that I have lived there for 37 years, I am interested in his career. here is our exchange. You went to hotel school. I live nearby. Rep. Yes to Ouchy. Me. Rather at Chalet à Gobet, I live nearby. Him: Wait a minute, are you judging me? Me: no sir, it s just that I live there. Him: I went to school in Lucerne. Me: Ah cool, so you must have learned German that s cool. Him: yes a little. in Ouchy I did my internship at the Beau Rivage hotel. You see that Im not telling you anything. Me: I never said that sir. Then you must also know the Palace on Place St-François, which also offers internships and which is just higher than the place where you did your internship. Him: No, not at all. And Im going to ask you to leave my restaurant because you were very mean. Conclusion. If this gentleman really has the background he says he has, he has forgotten the first thing that is taught at hotel school. Diplomacy and politeness. He was aggressive, and defensive as if I had discovered something. Besides, not knowing the Palace as well as Place St-François is nonsense. It would be like not knowing 4th Street. In addition, this restaurant aims to be a little classier than the others in the city, it would be good to review the rules that he has certainly learned. I talked to him the whole conversation while he used TU on me even though I could be his mother. As for the cuisine, I didnt taste it but I enhanced the pasta carbonara with cream. We never put cream in carbonara in Italy. The stay in Switzerland should have at least taught him that, if not having taught him how to live.

I want to give my opinion. I would say that every Wednesday lunchtime every 2 weeks I go to eat at Resto le Radoteux. Except from Saturday evening from time to time with the family. And Im always satisfied. But with the lack of time I didnt have time to comment on my vegetable soup. No but every time I feel like eating just that what can I say about the NUTELLA cheesecake my god lord lords but what a delight if you have never tasted it I highly recommend it. Arounen Baloomoody, your vegetable soup and your Nutella cheesecake are the best I have eaten. Everywhere I go their soup is ordinary, not always tasty, often lacking in seasoning. Im not a complainer about food, I never dare say when I dont really like it. But there I had to tell you in writing. Because a saying goes, words fly away but writings remain everything you cook, my stomach loves it, dont let go, youre incredible in the cauldron. If you have ever tasted shrimp and beef tacos I highly recommend it too. Well thats enough flowers Ill be back at the end of the week and on Wednesday I hope to have a vegetable cream and Nutella cheesecake keep up the excellent work

I never come back but during my short stay in Quebec I stopped at your restaurant, where I was served very well by Kassandra, a very warm person. Being a good consumer of Asian food, firstly I was surprised to see such a classy restaurant then secondly I was pleasantly surprised by this bowl of ramen made by the cook (nivech) it seems to me that I would like to thank again because It s undoubtedly one of the best I ve ever eaten, just like your Nutella cheesecake wow . Well done to you 2 then see you next time .

Everything was still pretty perfect if it was only the price of the bill which was quite high, I think compared to the other restaurant in the area. And as for the tartare in general, it really lacks any flavor punch very rarely I didnt eat it all and it was really not great compared to the excellent Breton crepes and the hamburgers too humm

Beautiful atmosphere and excellent singer. The most disappointing tartare I have eaten (the Quebecois which was suggested to me by the waitress), plates which arrived with a huge delay and several items cold, very ordinary service (there were groups apparently so maybe that explains why) We didnt mention that the whole thing wasnt to our taste, as the question wasnt asked to us. The fries are really good, so maybe its worth it for the poutines! The menu was good, only quite expensive childrens menu... In short, expensive enough not to be satisfied

We went to Radoteux for my mothers 50th birthday and no singer even though it was announced. We were also not seated grouped and no openness from the servers to adjust the tables. The onion soup starters were all cold and had to be returned, same for the main courses except for the fish n ship but there was no caesar salad as supposed and had to ask for it and we were replied that it would arrive soon because they had run out of it but we were not informed when receiving the dishes of this detail The beef tartare looked like raclette steak because it was so roughly cut and the meat was so browned The table next to us also made the same comments and we all left very disappointed and angry for his 50th!

Several restaurants are open in the area for lunch, but we chose the latter. And its a good option. Already the atmosphere and the decor. Upon arrival, the entrance is spacious, everything is clean, the tables are well spaced, even the toilets in the basement are better than average. The seats and benches are comfortable, there is even a coat check if necessary. Our server is super courteous, fun and very attentive. If everyone in the public was like this, society would surely be less stressed and happier. As for the food, it was still a simple lunch but everything was good, hot and cooked to perfection. The smoked ham is really good, it doesnt taste like the slice you buy at Iga. If you are looking for a place for lunch, I recommend it. Prices are standard for lunch places, and from 11 a.m. you also have access to the lunch menu. There is also an evening menu from 4 p.m. which I havent been able to try but it seems very good.

The atmosphere with the singer was excellent, the artist gave us an excellent performance. Plus the food was excellent, I loved my hamburger and the food was very affordable. Only the starter was disappointing for the price, the tandoori chicken with only three tiny pieces. And the service is a little long, we went when there was a show so the waiting time wasnt so bad but I cant imagine it when there is no artist, I can understand the bad reviews below on the other hand the whole evening was perfect I highly recommend the radoteux as one of the best restaurants in Shawinigan. I havent tried everything but here is my list in order of preference. 1- Radotous 2- ANGKOR 3-Chenapan 4- Saint mo (which was really meh) If you have any suggestions by reading my comment Im all yes

Must eat place in Shawi! If your visiting this amazing town in the Mauricie region of Quebec, and are looking for a fine place to dine, make sure you visit Le Radoteux! This place went above and beyond any expectations we had when reserving a table for two this weekend. We walked in around lunch time hoping to reserve a table for later that evening. We were immediately greeted by the radiant smile of Allyson and her amicable and welcoming charm. She accommodated us on very short notice with a table for two. To our pleasant surprise, when we returned at 7pm, Allyson was there and ready to provide us with an evening we would remember. She had reserved for us a prime table with the perfect intimacy for a romantic date. The ambiance was trendy and warm with a singer to entertain us for the evening. The volume was just right so we could hear one another talk, but still be able to enjoy the music. The menu was enticing all around and picking only one meal out of the variety of delicious choices was a challenge. I made a friendly request to our hostess to suggest their specialty to me. Being the meat lover that I said I was, she rightfully picked a combo of perfectly cooked beef cheek and filet mignon. It was cooked just as requested and it was just as delicious as she had promised! Our evening was made memorable not only because of the great food, but mainly by the outstanding service Allyson offered throughout the evening. She chatted with us like old friends and made the experience that much more personal and enjoyable. If youre looking for a good time, stellar service and a delicious meal, look no further, and visit Le Radoteux! Thank you Allyson!

So today was my parents wedding anniversary and they decided to go to this restaurant. I decided to contact the restaurant by phone to ascertain if there was a possibility I could pay for my parents dinner over the phone as I lived out of the country. The young lady on the phone ensured me I could in fact pay for their dinner and I then provided her with my mothers name (reservation was under her name) and stated she would call me back once the dinner was complete so that I could pay for the dinner. The young lady on the phone even added she would tell the waitress/waiter assigned to their table this information. I then waited, waited, waited and finally decided to call the restaurant as I knew my parents were still there and almost done with dinner. I called several times and never got an answer (I assume they could not call a number out of the country so I was calling them instead). Once 9pm came around (the restaurant closes at 9pm, I called again and now got an automated message saying the restaurant was closed. I then called my parents around 930pm and found out that they were home and of course paid for their dinner. Thanks for nothing. Much appreciated. The only reason I m giving you two stars is because my parents said their food was good but the staff service sucked.

There were a lot of people, the tables were too close together, they bothered my daughter to pass by all the way, the meal was cold and very ordinary for the price, the staff was overwhelmed by the excess number of customers. Total bill without alcohol at $140 (two adults and a child) out of kindness I leave a tip to the waitress $10, she comes back to see me to dispute the amount! As if I left nothing, I very often leave 20%, I didnt feel like it deserved more this time!

Very nice restaurant and clean. The prices are good and the portions are very good. Good atmosphere and a singer arrives at around 6:20. I found the contrast enormous for the music. Before the singer we had a lounge style atmosphere and then a singer. Nothing to say about the singer but I found the atmosphere more appropriate in a lounge. Another point, I found the service a little hasty as if we wanted to leave as quickly as possible and yet the restaurant was half full on a Saturday evening at 7am. In short, a great experience but you would have to carefully consider the words you use or the way you say it to the customer.

For simple lunch dishes its good. Im not sure I would risk ordering the more refined and expensive dishes. I ordered the fish and chips and it was tasty. Good breading and good fries. Thats the main thing. I was told it was served with a Caesar salad but on the plate it was just a small pile of arugula with 3 tiny slices of dried radish. We dont have the same definition of a Caesar, it seems. The service was courteous and fast but it must be said that there were 5-6 tables in the entire restaurant.

We were told it was full for 2 people even though it was 5:30 p.m. and there were at least 20 tables available, I managed to convince the hostess that we would eat and then leave. It took an hour to receive our meals. The poke bowl was very average with 3 colors of peppers to fill the bowl. Very ordinary.

Disappointing experience. I ordered two starters for dinner. The starter of goats cheese seemed attractive to me... I was very disappointed when I saw the contents of my dish: two tiny pieces of breaded, dry cheese, three small piles of sprouts and three slices of beets... $13. There was nothing worth that price on my plate. Otherwise the service, although very long, was excellent. Our waitress was very friendly.

Good food, but not worth the price. Poor service: no water refill, no wine service, nothing to keep it cold, no attention from the waitress... it ends up that you have to be served and paid with the hostess while the waitress is at the bar taking shots with the customers... not even a thank you for the generous tip despite no service..! P.S a big thank you to the young hostess for taking pity on us.

Cafeteria atmosphere, pitiful service, aggressive boss dared to yell loudly, like rotten fish, at his own customers in front of all the other customers like undesirables etc. he invited them to leave the restaurant while they had already started to eat. He was condescending, disrespectful and arrogant. However, the people at this table were very respectful and were clearly in shock after this completely unjustified excess of anger on the part of the owner. What a wasted evening and too much money poorly invested. To be prohibited!!!! @ owner: Mr. owner, know that it is your customers who make your restaurant live and that lack of respect for them will certainly not contribute to its sustainability. Maybe you don t belong with the audience!

The Radoteux guys are real, wow!!! We went there this Saturday with the intention of tasting good dishes from Mauritius... and Reunion, because yes they also make this type of food, and which is particularly delicious. I was not disappointed, on the contrary, the guys made me good dishes, really very good dishes. But there was one little detail that I missed: the chili sauce like only they know how to make. And, Ill give it to you, they found me on social networks, they sent me a super personalized message saying this: << Hi JP! I passed the word on to one of the co-owners, his girlfriend made lemon cracked pepper like we do at home :) were going to drop off a little jar at your girlfriends office and well make sure theres Theres always one in the kitchen if you ever pass by ;) Have a good evening! >>p
