| - Hello, I've been to the Papillion on the Park twice for dinner and once for brunch and have enjoyed my experience each time! I'm surprised that it isn't rated more highly
For dinner, I've had the french onion soup, the Crepe Raphael (shrimps, scallops in a cream sauce) and the Aubergine Fouree The soup is delicious. Although it's a broth, it has a nice heft to the broth. It is well seasoned and full of flavour. I loved my seafood crepe. The crepe had the right balance of crispy and chewy. It had thee large scallops and good-sized shrimps all covered in a light cream sauce. The Aubergine was also very well done. It's one of the more creative and delicious veggie entrees I've had. The eggplant is stuff with quinoa, corn and pumpkin The flavours come together really well. In my experiences to date, I've been very impressed with the entrees. Service was smooth and efficient, but nothing remarkable. I will say the evening ambiance in the space is beautiful. It is nice high ceilings with windows running along one side of the room. There are multiple fireplaces which provide a wonderful warmth to the space, specially in the wintertime!
For brunch, we had a group of 15 celebrate my wife's birthday. First off, they were wonderful in hosting us. We were definitely a big group, but also had several newborns with us. They welcome us, the babies and the baby stuff (strollers, bags, etc.) with open arms. The food was solid. I had the french toast, my wife had the smoke salmon benedict. We also shared the poutine and the poudding chameur (dessert). I wasn't a big fan of my french toast, it was a tad too soft for my liking, but my wife really liked it. She was also a fan of her benedict. They do a good job with the poutine: crispy shoestring fries with a good amount of gravy and cheese curds. The poutine felt expensive for the size. Lastly, the poudding is a fairly hefty cake covered in a delicious sweet syrup. It's similar to a sticky toffee pudding cake made with white sugar instead of brown sugar. It was really tasty if you ask me!
Entrees were mid-teens to low twenties, with brunch entries priced in the mid-teens. Personally, I think it's a much better deal for dinner! And the character of the space shines more at night.
All-in-all, a great space for some reasonably priced French/Quebecois food. Great ambiance, especially in the wintertime and good for big groups!
