| - I had been hearing good reviews about this restaurant and have been wanting to check it out for a while. Luckily today, I had the chance to go.
At first, my friend and I couldn't find the place for there was no sign outside. We walked right by it. When I walked in I wasn't expecting the place to be so small. However, this made me happy. It gave it a real intimate feel. The place's decor has a 1960's diner vibe, really cool. The menus are made out of printer paper and cut out by hand. I loved it, it was simple and added authenticity to the place, along with the pickled goods and family photos on the wall. Malt shop music played in the background. It gave me such a cozy nostalgic feeling. This place is a hole in the wall and I wouldn't want it any other way. It's just a simple diner where you could grab exceptional food at a low price.
Our waitress was great and very knowledgeable regarding the menu. She explained everything in great detail, including all the sauces we had on our table; and gave us recommendations. It wasn't long before she served us their signature homemade iced tea, which was terrific.
The food is without a doubt, extraordinary. They serve original southern dishes and create flavour combinations that you will not find anywhere else in Montreal. My friend and I were getting full but were determined to finish everything on our plate, for we didn't want to waste such delicious food.
I can't wait to return and bring my boyfriend to this restaurant. There are so many other wonderful things on the menu to try.
I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in a heartbeat. Now, GO!
