Salut, La seule chose qui accroche un peu, c'est de trouver un stationnement. Outre cela, l'expérience a été parfait. Chapeau à Théodore pour son professionnalisme, sa disponibilité et sa bonne humeur. Ainsi qu'à notre serveuse Éloïse qui en plus d'étre très jolie, elle à une belle personnalité et elle est attentionnée à la clientèle. J'espère que cet avis trouvera ceux concernés. Merci, Michel Lortie 819-923-7800

We've dined here on several occasions, and the food and service are consistently excellent. The quality never disappoints. While the prices are on the higher side, it's to be expected from an upscale restaurant—especially given today’s food costs. Well worth it for a reliably great dining experience.
Restaurant KatoResponded on 22 May 2025
Thank you for your continued support and kind feedback, Tara. We're glad to hear you consistently enjoy the food and service. Your recognition of the quality and value means a lot to us. We look forward to welcoming you again!
