| - This is a teeny tiny restaurant, situated right next to the Soupe Soup on St. Viateur. It is charming and cozy, with somewhat bizarre artwork (x-rays of monkeys?).
The menu is simple French fare -- two different types of steak, lobster sausage and duck risotto, and of course, fois gras and ris de veau. It has an open kitchen, and dessert and wine options listed on the blackboards. I saw one vegetarian option listed. Definitely not a place for large groups -- when we went, it was mostly couples eating there.
The service was excellent, and the food was cooked perfectly. I had the bavette, which was very tasty, and had a bit of my husbands filet, which had hazelnuts on top -- which I didn't love, but the meat was cooked well. Dessert was fondant au chocolat and ile flotant, both done very well. We started with some amazing baguette from 3M bakery on Mont-Royal -- our server highly recommended visiting there for their pasteries as well, so we will. It was about $50/person (with tax+tip) for our meal.
I love this place for an intimate french dinner in our neighborhood, it was worth the money!
