  • I want to preface this review with the following -I researched this place hard core before committing and found that everyone said the same thing. Staff rude,wayyyyyyyy overpriced,dark and they make you wait forever for your table. The only one i found to be true was the food is VERY overpriced hence the 3 star review. We actually arrived a little late for our 9:15 reservation this past friday night but were seated right away. Food The meal started off on the right foot with a glass of sav blanc for me and a red wine for my dining companion. The cream cheese with herbs and shallots with house made bread is unbelievably good. We of course ordered the lobster poutine and it was as good as everyone says it is. The gravy was solid, the fries crispy and the cheese curds had just the right amount of salt. The lobster was a little less that visible but the flavor was there and i wasn't expecting it to be overflowing with lobster anyway. For entrees i did the scallops with gnocchi and KP asked for the short ribs with spezztle. The scallops were cooked PERFECT but there were only 3. The asparagus and carrots were also a great addition to the plate but the portion was very small and the gnocchi's actually weren't gnocchi's they just happened to be made with potatoes; but were dense , dry and not very good. To me gnocchi's are pillows of perfection these were rotten rocks. The fried mars bar was exactly what you would expect a fried mars bar aka extra fat. I wrapped up my meal with a double espresso. Service The overall dining experience was slow but i like slow. At no point did i feel rushed but we had to request things like water, and more vin. When you are paying the astronomical prices like the ones at Garde-Manger the service should be FLAWLESS i.e. I should need/want for nothing EVER. One negative for me was the constant up selling, the additional poutine, the seafood platter I mean i get it you want the check to be higher so you will have more of a tip but at some point just chillax with the sales pitch. Atmosphere- Loved the darkness , Loved the candles and LOVED the music selection. I think this place is probably overhyped but i also think the food is pretty solid. I wouldn't suggest to come back here but if i was in the area and wanted poutine and a nice glass of wine i would head here. Price -$$$$ my half of the check was slightly over 100.00 including tax and tip and only had 2 glasses of wine. Basically come here and be prepared to spend a lot of money.
