| - Being Latin American myself I can tell you with all honesty the food is catered to an upper class bourgeois Westmount Caucasian audience who assume, the more money they charge you, the fancier the food, the smaller the portions, the more rude the management can be.
We started off with a classic Pisco Sour drink that had no flavour of Pisco at all. Pisco is a Peruvian and Chilean drink with a rich perfume, which was completely absent in my glass. It was decent at best, not bad enough to send back, but not good enough to order again.
The 2 ceviches that are listed on the menu are not supposed to be filling enough to be a main course, but the waiter informed me that a third ceviche, unlisted would be enough to fill me up. "It's a hearty meal" we're his exact words. That too was disappointing as I could have easily ordered much more food after that. It was also DROWNING in far too much lime juice, and not enough fish / sea food.
The service was fine, and the deserts delicious, but that's not why I came for dinner. I came to eat and was still quite hungry by the time we moved on to coffee. I chocked it up to partly my fault for ordering something that was not listed in the main course, and let it go.
On the way home, my brother received a phone call from the staff, that THEY under billed us by $50, and we should come back and fix the waiter's mistake. They admitted the waiter made the mistake, but insisted we return immediately, or the waiter would have it deducted from his pay check. My brother continued the discussion until they decided to hang up the phone on him in mid conversation. At that point, I can honestly tell you, that is one of the worst and tackiest business practices you could ever adopt. Not only would I never go back now, but neither should you.
