R	Rob D. Manetta on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Honestly so close to a 5 stars restaurant, that i will give it 5 stars without any regrets! Lovely old style retro ambiance, polite and professional staff, the owner is right there usually and always making sure you will love your experience, the food is simply delicious and always a new discovery and the prices are fair. Best Tartare ever, hands down! Thank you Le Forain! We always love to come back, over and over again!
A	Angela Kuester on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It is worth a visit just for the creative decor. They have used very warm strong colours which make you welcome and comfortable. The menu is a smaller and obviously consists of farm to table items. The portions are adequate and in keeping with the price range. The flavours seem to be in the comfort food category yet more nutritional. Although it is French first, the staff is completely bilingual and responds accordingly. I will return.
K	Kyle Nolan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wow, absolutely delicious. The French Onion soup is superb and it was followed by an even tastier duck main dish. I will be returning again soon! The staff are incredibly friendly and hard working, and the interior rooms are decorated with individual themes that stimulate conversation. Big wine list but only a few craft beers served. Also no cocktail menu but that doesn't mean they don't serve cocktails. Definitely ask for the dinner specials, they are not listed on the menu and they will blow your taste buds away! Portions are big and you can take away whatever you can't finish (it is easy to fill up on the fresh bread and entre soup before even getting to the main). Parking is free.
A	Amal El Atifi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Atypical place: old house with vintage decor, which gives the place a special and exceptional charm. The staff is very knowledgeable. You will get good suggestions and recommendations if you’re not sure what to get. Food is delicious. Always ask for the day specials. For those who understand French, the menu is a fun read!

J	John-Boy Hahn on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I cannot complain about this place. I think it is more of a group setting than a place to go just for a couple. The food was delicious and the price was right. The most fun part about this restaurant is the decor. Each "room" is interestingly decorated with large paintings and draperies. You will never run out of things to talk about in here, even in the most corporate of dinners! Book your work luncheon here now, it was great!
A	Anonymous on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I wouldn't quite call this place a bistro. We went on at around 130pm Dec 28th so it was just us in the resto. Good food, generous portions. I will say that our poutine cheese curds were a bit cold though, I assume they have it all prepped and reheat as they go along, the food came out very fast. Very much cabinet of curiosity style. They have 3 different seating rooms with different decor, vibes and names. I'd recommend it. We had the poutine duck confit and the chicken pasta, tasty. #duckconfit #pasta #poutine #quirky #cabinetofcuriosity
