L	Louise Lesage on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I rated 3 stars because of their gift certificate policy. When using my $50 paper certificate to pay, the lunch specials are not available at the reduced price nor is the pasta special from Sunday to Wednesday. The waiter was very polite in explaining the rules to me as I was charged $5 extra for the lunch pasta meal special. Had to pay the regular price. I payed for 2 people with the paper certificate and had $3.95 coming back to me. The waiter asked me if I wanted the credit still available on the card. When I said yes he wrote the amount on it for my next use. The waiter should not have to ask clients if they want their balance left on the card, it should be done automatically. I did leave him a generous tip separately as he was very professional and it’s not his fault. I asked him to mention my concern about this policy to the Manager/Owner. I will be back as food and service is always excellent as usual. I will just not use a gift certificate.
K	K Ho on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Updated review - no soap in men washroom which was completely unacceptable. Food portion has strunk big time and quality has gone downhill. Now I'll think twice before driving all the way over from Ottawa.
L	Lydia Blanchet on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We waited 2 hours (not an exageration) for our food that arrived cold. We never saw the waitress once after she took our orders, only when she delivered the food. The waitress also forgot some items in our order and there was a mix up as we ordered a meal-size tartar and got an appetizer-size one. Had to flag someone else to get the tab and be able to go. The staff nearly got into a fight with another table that had to wait the same amount of time as us, but they actually had it in them to complain about it. Bad service, bad management. Never going there again.
V	Vitali T. on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Cozy and classy atmosphere inside, Prices are decent, bring your own wine ? restaurant, food was good a little pricey tho. Bathrooms ? were super clean. Service was alright but could’ve been better. They can serve you in English or French ?
C	Captain Nibbles on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Better than it was a few months ago; when entering expect a clean and pleasant dining experience. Food is delivered at an express rate and above average for most Gatineau restaurants.
G	Garry Trottier on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was our first time at this restaurant. The food was amazing and the service was great, our server Justin was awesome. He gave us delicious recommendations. We will come back for sure!
D	Deb Boisvert on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Finally, we’ve found a restaurant that cares about good food and customer service! The food is excellent and the portions are VERY generous! The prices are very reasonable especially at lunchtime. The owner personally escorted my 91 yr old mother to our table in a comfortable and bright booth. Our server Jérémie was friendly and attentive. You can also bring your own wine. Was very impressed and we will definitely be returning!
j	jjcousine on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went on a Saturday evening, was not too busy. We had reserved but wasn't necessary. Menu was large and varied, nice since many places have greatly reduced menus during Covid. Appetizer of smoked salmon was fresh and delicious. Lentil soup was also good but small and simple for the price. Pasta was bland. Mussels were hot and tasty. In all was good value. Service was a little slow, but we were not in a hurry so didn't matter. Manager stopped by a few times to check on quality and service.
