I'll admit that I haven't had much on the menu at Ludger- generally I like this spot for a nicer cocktail/wine date, before/after or completely forgoing a meal. However, I've never been disappointed with the quality of cocktails or the wine menu. Any of the snacks or dessert I've ordered have always been tasty and reasonably sized- the rhubarb tiramisu I had last time was beautifully plated and well-balanced for flavour.
I'll admit that service is hit or miss with this establishment; I'm convinced that it has everything to do with which section you're in- whenever I've sat at the bar or the little back tables I seem to have the undivided attention of the servers. It may be a trade-off from the sweet people-watching tables towards the front but I'd argue that the little spots at the back are more intimate anyways.
