| - Why is this not a 5 star review? One word: the staff...okay well that's two, but you get the point. They didn't ruin my experience; the food (more to come) was finger licking good, but I felt that staff that we interacted with could have been more friendly and attentive. Firstly, our waiter took two out of three people's drink order...I may be petite, but I'm not invisible, right? When two of us got our drinks, there was no apology for missing an order, he just took another order like no error.
With that said, the food was spectacular! Quick run down of our meal...We started with the tartare de cheval chipotle and papas Grumman. You read correctly folks, that is horse meat on the menu. Being the adventurous eaters that we are, we had to try this dish. No matter what the politics around this is, we were in Quebec and it's more a norm than anywhere else in Canada. To be honest though, it had to really concentrate to taste a difference between horse and beef. There was a lot of chipotle sauce mixed in with crispy tortilla chips. It was definitely tasty, not matter what meat it was. The papas were delicious friend sweet potato cubes with crumbly cheese. It's cheese and starch, who wouldn't like that? Tacos al pastor were up next. The pork was sweet and spicy with bits of pineapple that is typical of this taco. We gobbled it up and even fought over the last one. (We ended up sharing it.)
Overall, I would go back...but maybe were a big flashy hat so that I'm noticed this time.
