    The hot dishes were not available. Also part of the bread on the charcuterie board was burnt. The ceasar salad was good though

    Food wasn't all that spectacular, the portions are extremely small and the pricing of the food menu is pretty high for what you get. We ordered some Margaritas and those were pretty good. For Drinks and a nice view of old port, I would definitely recommend.

    I was quite disappointed! They only had one vegetarian option on the menu (apparently the menu I had checked before going was for the restaurant downstairs). The main problem was the service. The waiter clearly didn't want to be there, and when I asked if there were vegetarian options he simply said no. The wait for food was ridiculous. After ordering chips and guac we were informed later they were out (they were out of a few food options). We waited around 40 minutes for a salad and bread. The fries took even longer (I think they were clearly forgotten about). My friend spoke French and we were both very polite, but I was quite shocked at this service - definitely the worst in Montreal I've experienced. I'm also surprised as the reviews I read were quite good. As for the food, the fries were good but my caesar salad was disappointing! Also, this was a Wednesday night, not a weekend.

    I was there for a birthday... - 55min to get our dishes - no more champagne (at the glass) - over spicy food (three different dishes were all covered with chilli powder... way too much. Honestly, I'm thinking that they mixed Paprika and Chilli when making the plate decoration... seriously. That much chilli was insane. At then end, this place wants to be high end, but is very far from there...

    We came 1st for the brunch , but when we arrived at our reservation for 2pm they told us brunch was over we couldn’t order anything from this menu which was a big disappointment. Because they advertised a brunch from 10h30 until 14h30. So we had to order the classic lunch menu which was good, that’s why I gave them 4 stars

    Over priced food and small portions. The table set up are poorly managed, there’s areas where the sun reflects back from the other buildings and other tables where the sun hits you directly. I recommend you ask for a table in the shaded area and don’t except to get full. Food portions are tiny.

    Pire service… la serveuse nous a oublié toute la soirée alors qu’on commandait des drinks, etc…. Ne comprenait jamais ce qu’on demandait… a fait plein d’erreurs et incapble de séparer les factures tel que demandé, nous avions les repas/drinks de nos amis sur nos factures et vice versa. La nourriture cependant est très bonne, l’ambiance et la beauté de la terrasse sont géniales. Nous y retournerons en raison de la beauté de la place espérant que ce fût une badluck pour nous côté service…

    J’avais réservé pour un souper d’affaires. L’atmosphère était très bien. Comme il faisait beau, la vue était superbe. Le service était bon. La nourriture a été toutefois ordinaire. Variété limitée et bien que le titre des mets portait à croire que ce serait très bon, le goût était soit trop épicé (frites avec épices africaines) ou au goût ordinaire (hamburger).

    C’est ridiculement trop cher. Des frites, ça coûte rien. C’est innaceptable de charger des frites en extra avec une commande de brochette. C’est le minimum. Les portions sont aussi très petits. Le genre de restaurant que tu vas pour la terrasse, mais que tu ne manges pas. Le service était très lent en plus.

    The service was delightful! We celebrated our marriage anniversary and they were super kind and gave us two glasses of wine without cost. The ambiance was super chill and cozy. The food wasn’t bad, ok overall. The burger and the cheese table were very good, but the baos and the chicken sandwich weren’t that good.
