    We had to make bit of a line at 8pm, but it was so worth it. It's moderately expensive, but you get what you pay for and more. I had an amazing sangria du melon, ceviche du thon and pâte chinois😘👌🏼

    Tourist area restaurant that is actually a nice way to spend time- lovely back garden is multi-tiered with live music. Have a beer or a glass of wine and a crêpe.

    This is one of my favorite spot, always a great jazzy ambiance with a great live band (most of the time). Good sangria and food for everyone's taste.

    The salads (which are more like chicken accompanied by a salad) were very original and interesting. I had the Asian salad with chicken and it was very satisfying and delicious. Nice atmosphere as well

    The rabbit crêpe is super rich (in the most delicious way). Also try the homemade lemonade! The maple pudding and the pecan flaky pastry are also must haves! Food. coma.

    Indoor/outdoor restaurant in Montreal's old district. Has live jazz every night and a very nice outdoor garden to eat in. Definitely a good place for dinner and the food isn't too pricey.

    The crêpes, particularly the ones with pesto, are excellent. The sangria is great here too! Make sure you sit outside though - I'm all about that walled garden!

    Lobster salad was amazingly fresh and flavorful. Shrimp pizza and mushrooms brie crepe were okay. Don't leave without trying pudding chomeur.

    Try the Cheesecake crepe - delicious. (Although I think it's too much sweetness for one person- we split it between two).

    Beautiful outdoor terrace with live jazz. Feels like Southern France. Avoid the chocolate decadent crepe though - too heavy. Other food was great.

    Wasn't able to sit in the garden, but sat on the patio. Food solid (had smoked salmon pizza which was tasty but a little too caper heavy) but nothing spectacular.
