    Food was terrific and both it and house wine were very reasonably priced. My wife had piri piri shrimp which was very tasty but probably could have been a little spicier for her given her tastes but very very good. I had madiera beef brochette which was excellent. Place was a little quiet for Saturday night but a larger group did come in and twice before I couldn't get a reservation earlier in the week. Place us a real gem and montrealers should pack the place every night

    C’était correcte sans plus. Ls présentation des plats est plutôt ordinaire ainsi que la quantité. Le service et l’ambiance étaient excellent. Nous ne regrettons pas notre souper mais ce restaurant ne sera pas dans notre liste.

    In town for business; we made a late last minute reservation for two., on a Wednesday and during off season. The restaurant was quiet, which allowed for an intimate quiet dinner in a comfortable beautiful setting. Amber, our server was warm. welcoming and knowledgeable of the menu and wine list. We went with the daily fish specials, which were accurately described and recommended. Dishes were hot and excellent to taste. Exceptional service, food and wine for value. Will visit this restaurant again in the future.
