    Very nice atmosphere but a bit noisy. I had advised management I was there to celebrate a friend’s birthday but there was no tangible acknowledgment like a piece of cake, chocolate etc to acknowledge it, which was a disappointment and enough to go elsewhere next time I celebrate a birthday etc.

    Most likely the best, well aged steak I have ever eaten. The dry age process really brings out the flavour and the price point was excellent.

    Très déçu pour une facture de 500 on a eu droit à des patates laisser trop longtemps sous le réchaud très sèche des asperge brûler et un manque de classe des autres tables qui étaient nues pieds et criaient et était perturbante. Je donne rarement une si basse note mais j’étais extrêmement déçu hier. Si au moins on avait pu changer nos ingrédients qui étaient mauvais pour des plus frais j’aurais jamais donner une mauvaise note mais pour ce prix je m’attends à ne pas avoir mes choses brûler ou oublier sous le réchaud.

    - Nous étions dans la salle proche de la cuisine. Assez bruyant - Notre serveur a servi de grosses coupes ce qui a favorisé l'achat d'une 2e bouteille, mais ce n'était pas voulu. Servir de plus petites coupes svp.

    Great room, great service... a good choice for a nice dinner. Food generalky good but also inconsistent... at our table the steaks were "great, awesome " to "meh" to "like the Keg" to "tough, not cooked right." Mine was excellent. So, just inconsistent. Mashed potatoes great. Baked potatoes really dry. Again, just inconsistent. High prices, which is fine for a great place... and this place is (almost, sometimes) worth it. Overall, happy to go back and give it another try, because although imperfect, it was a good evening and overall a good experience.

    I felt that we were kind of rushed, even though the restaurant was not crowded. After payment, our glasses of water were never refiled, its like we were kind of expected to leave after payment. Food was ok, honest. French fries were disapointing considering the restaurant. Desert was amazing.

    Well, we were very disappointed. We were looking forward to this dinner for a long time. We all need to be a more careful when choosing a restaurant, especially during these tough economic times. My filet mignon was not great, a little flat with taste. My wife was disappointed that they had removed her favorite chicken dish and settled for the fish, which wasn’t too bad. The sides for my steak are way overpriced particularly when you see the small portion size served. Charging $8 for regular mashed potatoes seems too much for me. Afterall, they are just potatoes! We were just let down. Most who go there eat on the company’s expense account, so they won’t mind paying these prices, but a regular client, not on a business trip, it’s hard to pay these prices for the portion size received. It will be a very long while before we return to a restaurant we considered as one of our favorites.

    Vargas-MontrealResponded on November 6, 2023

    Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry that your expectations were not met because we do take pride in serving the best quality items for our guests and we have to charge accordingly. All of our items including main courses and sides dishes are oversized. This was done by design to make sure we do not have a portion issue with our guests. We are sorry that we didn't have your wife's favorite dish, we always try to keep our menu up to date and hope that she still enjoyed our new dishes.
