This restaurant looked very promising when i typed in "best french restaurants" in Montreal. Unfortunately, i feel like its a bit hyped up/ overrated. I am being generous for giving it 3 stars, it is probably just not my cup of tea.
Location/ Ambiance:
- it gets packed
- noisy
- trendy/ more of a hipster feel
-very cramped
- restrooms are a bit slippery and inconvenient since its right behind the bar
Food:
1.) Foie Gras Poutine - the fries, gravy and cheese were excellent.. the foie gras was pretty good.
2.) Bison Tongue - not really my type, it has a very EARTHY taste... i couldnt even swallow it.
3.) Herring - its very good - love the taste, a bit sour and little bit of sweetness.
4.) Au Pied de Cochon - also very earthy - we only ate 1/4 of it. If you like an earthy taste - you might like it.. But its definitely not for me.
Service:
Excellent - staff is very friendly and helpful. Although we made reservations ahead of time but when we got there we still had to wait for at least half an hour for our table.
Price:
Expensive for what it is. Sorry PDC.
