    Réception pas très agréable, la jeune fille veut nous installer dans le fond du restaurant à une petite table à deux alors que le restaurant est au trois quart vide, je lui indique une table près de la fenêtre, elle me répond que c’est une place pour quatre alors que la table juste en arrière sur le bord de la fenêtre est occupée par 2 personnes, finalement j’insiste et elle met les menus sur la table sans un mot ni un sourire. Je pourrais comprendre une réaction de ce genre avec un restaurant plein ce qui n’était pas du tout le cas ni à notre arrivée ni à notre départ. Quand donc les Québécois apprendront-ils le service à la clientèle? J’ai donné un 4 étoiles pour le service car le serveur que nous eu était vraiment attentif à nos demandes.

    Le service est en régression. Très aléatoire, sans logique et trop long. C’est dommage, car le reste est toujours bien ! À revoir rapidement.

    excellent service, excellent wine recommendation, soupe du jour was awesome and all four dishes were excellent according to my other 3 guests. The only thing was that my Mille-Feuilles was different but still very good. Also I would expect a different kind of music for a Brasserie Francaise, seemed a bit loud at first in the lounge right by the DG but not so much once we sat down at our designated table.

    Way too expensive for what it is. Some more refined food in Montreal for the same price or less. A bit of a ripoff. Too bad because the rest is ok

    My goodness, I don’t even know where to start. We were a party of 4 adults with a small toddler. Some of the food we ordered was passable, but some, terrible. The steak was unseasoned, the duck confit was clearly left for a long time on the counter because the sauce had a layer on top already, the profiteroles were terrible as well. There were SO MANY fruit flies. We had probably 3-4 circulating around our table and on OUR PLATES. This is UNNACEPTABLE. Service was also SO slow for a restaurant that didn’t have too many people that night. We didn’t even bother sending back the food because we had a baby with us and knew it would take a long time to get the food again, so it wasn’t worth it. The only good thing was the crème brûlée. I wasn’t expecting much from the restaurant, but this experience was beyond horrible.

    Excellent cocktails! Nice atmosphere. Food was good but be prepared to spend at least two hours as the service is incredibly slow and not in an intentionally paced or relaxed way.

    Les lieux sont superbes et le service impeccable. Quand à la table, c'est très dispendieux pour le type et la qualité des mets offerts. C'est le problème de la restauration maintenant .
