| - Absolutely fantastic service, coupled with a very comfortable and relaxed atmosphere make this a very good place for anything from a date, to a family dinner.
I've given this place 4/5 because it lost half a star for not having an English menu, and I can't award half stars on Yelp, so..... The up side was our waitress spent a proper ten minutes going through the entire menu and describing each item to us in English and even pulled the chef out for some words she didn't know. We didn't need to ask, and she really went out of her way to make us feel comfortable with the menu and comfortable being an anglophone in Quebec (a rare thing indeed).
This place is sort of like the hipster version of French food (not a bad thing), I wouldn't call them super traditional but they aren't ultra-modern either, so it actually makes for a very good experience. Station F has the comfy, hearty, earthy bits of traditional fare, but the upbeat and creative bits that make it feel much less stuffy than many more established French restaurants.
Pricing is also very reasonable, dinner costs around $30 a head on average, and I hear there is a good lunch service but I've yet to try it. Also, portions are not small, so bring an appetite! The food was very good, and deserving of a 4 star rating on it's own. This place really combines to shed the stuffy and pretentious feeling you get from many other French restaurants, while also not going too deep into the hipster end of the pool.
Note: it was kind of difficult to find parking at 7pm on Saturday night, the lot next door is reserved and not their's so heads up if your planning to drive there.
