You know you're at a fancy restaurant when... 1. They use…read morecrumb sweepers. 2. They have a sommelier. 3. Neither you nor the waiter know the names of the ingredients on your plate! 4. They're part of the Relais & Chateau The menu changes with the seasons and they use fresh and unique ingredients from the province of Quebec. Among them were sea lettuce, sea parsley, sea asparagus, sea buckthorn berries, camrise berries, etc. It almost sounded like every veggie or fruit was slapped with "sea" and that made it "special". The clientele is predominately an older, Caucasian crowd with some folks from the US. Overhearing the conversations on the table next to us, it sounds like the types that spend time at the Hamptons (I've never been, but that's how I image it'd be like!) The restaurant overlooks the beautiful garden and lake--the tables by the windows are best! The server distributes sliced bread one piece at a time from a basket they carry over. Butter with buckwheat seeds is shaped into two really smooth domes. For a moment, I questioned whether they were butter or white chocolates... Thankfully I didn't just pop one into my mouth! Bread was very ordinary. I kind of expected to have better. We're served fresh gerkin in a dill cream sauce, fresh mustard grains and edible Bernette flowers. This was definitely an intriguing start. The appetizers - The potted kale is a unique surprise. It's literally grown in a pot! We had fun snipping kale leaves into a bowl. Alas, a whole kale plant lost its life for my salad. The flavor of the bison, cheese, yolk and herring really pack a umami punch so cut up the whole plant and mix well. Great flavors and fun to try. - The razor clams are a must try. The server brought the dish to the table, named a bunch of unknown ingredients and proceeded to baptize my razor clam dish with a delicious, warm, creamy green leek sauce. The flavors like I've never tasted before marry together with chanterelles, garlic scapes, sea plantain leaves, two clusters of seaweed are just delightful!!! You'll want to lick up the sauce--cause I almost did. The mains - Duck Magret was decent tasting but I fought some tendon in each piece. I would've wanted a more tender experience. I think the better part of the plate was the Haskap berry (aka Camerise) sauce and the foie gras mousse. I found the mangly turnip roots somewhat tough to eat and they didn't add much visual appeal to the plate! - The Berkshire Pork went much better. Tender and grilled to perfection. Accompanied with chanterelles, edible flowers and a wrapped meat thingy that was so tasty. Definitely go with this plate! The desserts - The sweet grass ice pop was delightful. Tasted like yogurt candy exterior and the light sweetness was balanced with the tangy pop of the sea buckthorn berries. The biscuit base added a nice crunch. - The rhubarb tartlet had milder flavor and was enjoyable but less interesting. Complementary dessert - They provided a free dessert Overall, very unique accompanying ingredients found in the region of Quebec. When the server described the slew of novel-sounding ingredients, I thought I was hearing Charlie Brown's teacher talking cause none of the words made sense!! Some things were delicious and intriguing but others could've been better given the price, such as the duck magret.

Nice place. Beautiful location with a terrace looking over the lake…read more The food is beautifully presented and it is good. Why not 5 stars? We were seated in a room behind the main terrace, with only 4 tables in this section. It felt isolated and left out. The iron chairs were not as comfortable and the atmosphere was not the same. Also, we waited for an hour to receive our main course. Our steaks were tasty, but overcooked (we asked for medium rare and medium and both got medium well). At this point we were hungry and did not want to return the dishes and wait again. The dinner was, in my opinion, overpriced. $60 for overcooked, hardly 5 oz filet mignon that arrived an hour after ordering, takes one star away. The staff was very polite.

My favourite cafe/restaurant in Sherbrooke by far! So many fond memories were made at this spot…read more The food is unique and always delicious, with Toussaint (chef) bringing lots of spice and unique flavour from his Mauritian background. The decor is lively and unique, Donimique's art decorating throughout, and the staff are always very friendly (they even convinced me to dance on my birthday). I can't say enough about how warm and hospitable everyone at Classyco has been each of the many times I've returned. The menu allows you to combine a variety of proteins (octopus, chicken, scallops, shrimps, squid, fish, beef, or a vegetarian melange) with a variety of preparations (Indian curry,Cajun, creole, coco seychellois, to name a few), along with available soup, salad, and deserts. My personal recommendation is to ask Toussaint to cook whatever he's feeling at the time-- the curried octopus was very tender and extremely tasty- but I have never gone wrong. They have a patio for when the weather is good, and BYOW is also a nice option, though not uncommon in these parts. With a combination of great people, wholesome quality food, and nothing but very fond memories, this was definitely my favourite place to eat while in the townships.

Everything is meant to be shared, so make sure everyone at the table more/less agrees on the menu. Overall, a good experience. I will say though, the lava cake was SUPERB!

The cheese they used didn't really tasted like gruyere. Mixed reviews for the different dishes we ordered. Prices were really expensive for what it was. The risotto was the star of the night, so I guess this ekes out a 4/5 for me because of that.

Started with lattes, mine was a dirty chai (chai with a shot of espresso). Never had that before, interesting combo, but not for purists :) We each had the crèpes salées, savoury crepes filled with asparagus, cheese and ham, with hollandaise. Oh the ham was so good, big pieces and wonderfully textured. We each added a poached egg, because why not. Potatoes and a small fruit cup also on the plate. A maple butter for the fruit was absolutely amazing, but no way to eat all of it and I felt bad for the wastage of something so delicious. Would return yo try a grilled cheese sandwich, of which there are so many to choose from and seemed a hot item coming out of the kitchen. Service had zero flaws and was quick and efficient. About $30 each on the bill with tip, a very satisfying experience.
