LolaOctober 13, 2017Food was divine. I don't like eating while listening to loud music, but the ambience was perfect and music not too loud to talk. Service was excellent. Fabulous experience especially on a rainy day!
Cj FondaFebruary 26, 2017The service was excellent. The owner is very personable and friendly. We came in with no reservation and they made accommodations for us even though they were clearly packed. Great atmosphere!
Bassel SafadiJune 17, 2018Everything we ordered was great. From Onion soup which is second to none, calamari is awesome, beet Salad is super delicious all the way to the lamb burger which is a killer 👍👍 v pleasant experience
Lauren MarkeSeptember 5, 2014Lured in by ambiance and live music. Salad greens with chèvre was delish and moules frites portion was huge! Satisfying meal and warm service..
Christina SquitieriJune 25, 2019Absolutely lovely place. The service is incredible, as is the food and the atmosphere. Definitely recommend the delicious French onion soup and the AMAZING saffron risotto. And Julien is great!- Adam AbbateAugust 23, 2019The poutine and the moules (both gluten free!) were excellent. Ask for Vincent to be your server!
hussein sJanuary 15, 2017The food is ordinary for my taste, but the atmosphere is very convivial and casual. The live jazz band is definitely a plus. Very good place for a date. Great drinks
TK 🍦🍷June 23, 2013The food here was consistenly strong, start to finish. Frisee salad w/lardons & a poached egg to start, the rack of lamb as entree. Broiled goat cheese over roasted potatoes is decadent and delicious.
Joe GizziSeptember 8, 2015Loved this spot on the west end of Old Montreal. Great drinks, Italian food and delicious creme brûlée for dessert. An MTL favorite.
Ben VSeptember 3, 2013The bolognese and beet salad are delicious. Ask to be seated in Radouan's section. He is a terrific waiter. Sit by a window or outside for some great people watching.
Kevin BrookApril 23, 2017Excellent service. Great food. Had a lovely evening there. We had Mussels , Calamari , rack of lamb
Shathiyah KulandaveluMarch 25, 2016Nice ambiance, live jazz and delish food. We tried the pre-fix menu for dinner. Great option and the cocktails were refreshing.- Don BanhNovember 5, 2013Amazing lamb chops! Live Jazz and music makes this place an easy choice for dinner on St. Paul street!
Rachel SmithOctober 15, 2015Great wine list and decent cocktails! Try the lychee martini. Staff speaks English as well!
Connie ChiuDecember 16, 2014Lamb mille feuille and duck confit in maple syrup reduction. Tiramisu is amazing.
Danielle ChutinthranondDecember 17, 2014Try the spaghetti Bolognese with a glass of chianti for a lunch. It'll fuel you for long walks through the snow.
Davida G.May 30, 2014Excellent service. Great food. Had foie gras, rack of lamb with goat cheese and vanilla panacotta. All really good.
#victorjpcNovember 29, 2015The Mossels look better than they actually taste. If you come here go for the special of the day or the Lamb.
Michael VitaleSeptember 8, 2013The Sicilian Penne is tasty with lots of sausage. Reservations recommended, especially to be upstairs with the live jazz.
Anne R.April 29, 2016If you enjoy live jazz ask for a table in the section where the band is located. Reservations recommended.
Keri GonzalezSeptember 21, 2017Great jazz music! Get the lamb cavatelli because it is absolutely delicious- Brandt AMay 27, 2012Best rack of lamb either of us have ever had and the goat cheese with the vegetables is an incredible side. You must try it.
Jacques BenunJune 30, 2013Very attentive staff. Great place to sit outside in the Summer. We loved the octopus salad and the mussels
Antonio F MondragonNovember 4, 2022We came for appetizers and beer and we are full! Very tasty and good service!
Didi McElroySeptember 4, 2011The Salmon a la plancha is splendid. It's pan-seared then baked. I liked the portions but couldn't finish the entire meal (after raiding the bread basket)
Patrick PollifroneAugust 14, 2013Very good and very romantic restaurant for wine lovers and culinary fans alike.
David SolomonAugust 21, 2012The lamb chops were great as was the NY strip. Great atmosphere with the live jazz.
Kenyatta Jones-AriettaJuly 18, 2014Do not order the octopus and white bean salad. The octopus was tough and tasted as though it came from a can. And the salad was so oily it was slick! Foie gras was fabulous!
Jaspreet AhujaJanuary 5, 2012Avoid the calamari - very greasy and oily. All the lamb dishes are really good. And the goat cheese salad is very nice and really filling.
