    Tried 1 app and 3 dishes, all excellent! The pad thai is delicious and the iced black tea with condensed milk is truly incredible. Service was great, very kind staff. The bartender Glen is so sweet. Woman owned establishment which is a plus in my book. Highly recommend!

    We thoroughly enjoyed the Christmas brunch; it was our first visit, and we will certainly return. The staff provided attentive service, and the food was fresh and delicious, offering ample choices ensuring complete satisfaction. The omelette station featured a wide variety of ingredients, and they expertly made me wet scrambled eggs at my request. We highly recommend this establishment as an exceptional brunch option.

    The service was outstanding, attentive but not intrusive. For instance, our coats were taken to a cloak room and brought back to us after our meal, the wobbly table was fixed instantly and the bread basket was replenished without having to ask! The menu has all the traditional offerings of a French bistro and each of us enjoyed the meals we were served. The charcuteries were particularly excellent. The meals were cooked as requested (steak, rognons, fish and boudin) and served on heated plates. We tried the private label wine (red) and found it quite good as well. Overall we had a lovely evening and one of the best restaurant experiences in a while. We will be back! Thank you!
