I LOVED our waitress! She was so friendly and down-to-earth.
- I made my reservations 3 months in advance (that's the earliest you can make it)
- It's a dimly-lit, tiny restaurant, very homey and intimate
- They played some great music while we were there (biggie smalls and some frenchy music)
- The menu is written on the chalkboard (behind people sitting in the restaurant) - just take a picture with your smart phone and look at the menu from your seat instead of cranking your neck around and struggling to read it
- The waitress encourages you to get up from your seat to look at the menu and she can answer any questions or give you recommendations
- Duck for 2 ($90) is HUGE and worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It comes with 2 pieces of foie gras and a duck leg (confit), and like a whole freakin duck. It was SO good. We couldn't finish and I was really sad. HUGE portions.
- Corn chowder was delicious too
- For dessert, I picked ice cream with concord grapes - it was very good.
- I also got to pick at my neighbor's cake (we became friends after sitting so close for 2 hours) - 12 layers of buttercream
As with any other French restaurants in Montreal, your meal will probably last 2 hours or longer.
