The place was empty, and we found out why! We waited ages for the rude server to attend to us. The food was overpriced and looked like it belonged in a styrofoam clamshell container. We paid the bill and did not feel it was appropriate to tip given the quality of the service. At which point the owner stood by our table and demanded that we tip. He informed us that it was the law to tip in Montreal. We ended up tipping, but in hindsight we should have insisted he call the police if indeed we were breaking the law. A very unpleasant experience.
