what a cute local spot! as we were at our last night in canada and spent our week-long trip trying out international delights we were determined to enjoy at least one french meal and were so glad that our friend recommended this restaurant a few blocks from his flat!
we arrived on a thursday night and the place was crowded (reservations definitely recommended) but were lucky and got a seat at the patio. i was afraid that it'd be cold but the patio is lined by heaters and well-enclosed so we were all comfy. we started with the pork rillette (prepared similar to pate - generous portion, smooth, and rich) and i ordered the duck confit entree. it came with a HUGE serving of greens and potatoes to compliment the duck. the duck was tender, salty, and flavorful. forrest y ordered the salted salmon and was surprised that it was in broth but polished it off happily.
as other reviewers have noted, the late night meal deal seems like a great deal and the service is great here - friendly and professional - and the spot is definitely warm and welcoming to families too (unlike some of the other snotty french restaurants we spotted in the area).
