    In town for business; we made a late last minute reservation for two., on a Wednesday and during off season. The restaurant was quiet, which allowed for an intimate quiet dinner in a comfortable beautiful setting. Amber, our server was warm. welcoming and knowledgeable of the menu and wine list. We went with the daily fish specials, which were accurately described and recommended. Dishes were hot and excellent to taste. Exceptional service, food and wine for value. Will visit this restaurant again in the future.

    The piri piri shrimp & calamari had no flavor - at all. Totally bland. Left out the piri piri, I guess.

    Sorry to hear that you were not happy with our Piri Piri shrimp & calamari. We try not to make it too spicy as many people do not like a lot of spice. Did you mention it to your waiter? We are always happy to replace your meal with something else or can ask the chef to make it more spicy. We also have Piri Piri sauce you can add. Thank you though for your feedback so that we know going forward. Best regards.

    Our evening dinner was fabulous. The salmon was cooked to perfection. The cost was quite reasonable for two dinners, appetizers, dessert, and drinks. We will definitely return if we are innthe area again. Highly recommend!

    What a great find! We had our best meal here while visiting Montreal for 3 nights. It's charming with a cozy ambience and quiet, which made it easy to carry on a conversation. My husband ordered the snapper and I ordered the salmon and both were excellent. Our waiter recommended the creamy lemon sorbet for dessert and it was a great choice! The service was outstanding and the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend experiencing a meal here.
