Yes a little expensive, but outside of Spain where quality paella is cooked over an olive wood fire, this is as good as it gets, with lobster, scallops and prawns overflowing the earthenware dish. I thought I was in heaven with the generous portion of foie gras they delivered, with a really nice jelly accompanying the delicacy, but was then... More

The atmosphere is as others have described it - intimate, cozy, warm, a little loud and a little crowded if you are not in a booth. The food was pretty good to very good - the short ribs were...

This was one of our favorite restaurants on our visit. We got to sit at the bar and watch the drinks being made. The atmosphere was great along with the food. Drinks were good and fresh, but way over priced. I paid like $12 per drink, but they were good. More

This is a great little restaurant in Old Montreal. The atmosphere is perfect and the menu is not overly extensive but very appealing. They have a nice wine list with good quality wines by the glass. The service was excellent. I had the artic char to start and the Cornish hen as my main. Both were very good. This restaurant... More

I have been to this restaurant a few times and always with great pleasure. I enjoy best sitting at the bar and discussing food and wine with the expert opinion of the bartender/mixer/server. They prepare some of the best cocktails you can drink and will gladly invent one to your likes! The oysters were delicious. The fish was delicious, The... More

Mixologists there are quite talented as are the menu offerings. Oysters here are quite good and change of course daily. Staff is attentive but in a casual arena. More
