This was a suggestion from a friend that lives in the area, so naturally we stopped there during…read moreour trip. It was a Tuesday evening. The place was VERY busy and it is usually full. Luckily for us, they manage to find a four-seated table. The good: Service was number one. Waitress did not speak English and she really felt bad about it. She also felt bad that our orders were taking time to arrive (trust me, they were not. The delay was a normal one). Everyone was very satisfied with their meals (mac and cheese, shrimps brochette, meatball plate, pork chop). My father in-law said this is " the best pork chop he ever had " (and he had quite a few). Decor is magnificent. The bad: They were out of Rickard's Red beer. During the night, l experienced very tough stomach and intestinal pain (which might confirms that my meatballs were indeed not that fresh, made a day or two in advance?) but l was not sick, just awake for the night. Mac and cheese reheated was not good. We tried to make a reservation for a few days later but once again, it was full. This place is EXTREMELY popular. There is a good chance that you might not eat there if you just show up. This was our favourite restaurant throughout our trip. Worth the stop. You just have to plan it and reserve.

We had lunch in here twice (never dinner) and the service was quite good. The staff kept our water…read moreglasses filled and did a fine job of working out our poor French with their pretty good English. But you can always fall back to pointing at the menu. Smoked meat of course is the specialty of the house and I would recommend it. The lunch portion is a reasonable portion of (slightly spongy) rye bread with yellow mustard and fries. It's a good amount. For dessert, I really recommend what they call "unemployed man's pudding" (in French Pudding Chomeur) which is actually just a maple syrup cake. A small portion of this sweet stuff is all you need to finish off your meal. They do have tons of other things for lunch - the smoked salmon salad looked good, as did the rotisserie chicken. It's all Pepsi here. No Coke.

This was our Thursday evening stop at the end of our vacation. When we called to reserve, they said…read morethey were full. When we showed up (we took a chance), people were coming in like crazy just to sit down and we waited around 15 minutes (which is fine). We had one chicken, one hot chicken, one club sandwich, and one fish and chips. The good: Waitress, Lysandre, was excellent, fun, funny, and attentive. Food arrived at a decent wait time. Fish and chips was excellent. The wait for a table was relatively short. The food was tasty. The bad: THREE BONES!!! We had three chicken bones in our two sandwiches! One huge one in the hot chicken, and two smaller ones (including one short sharp one that could have sent me to the hospital) in the club sandwich. This is simply unacceptable. Although we got a rebate (which was not our goal when we mentioned it, but more to warn others), this could have killed someone. I still give it two stars as our waitress was terrific at what she did. Aside from that, be warned.

We had take out twice from here but the third visit, I actually popped in. It's a nice restaurant,…read moreobviously part of a chain but it's dimly lit and quieter than the Fridays/Tuesdays/Chilis/Applebees that might be their competitors. The menu is focused on rotisserie chicken and that's really what they're especially good at. But the chicken salads and the chicken sandwiches also look pretty good. I had a half chicken with a sweet potato. Excellent. Served very hot, the chicken had a ton of meat and was moist and juicy. I don't know why, but it comes with a hamburger bun so of course I made myself a little chicken sandwich and poured some of the gravy on it. Yum. Beer menu is minimal, but the Rickards is good beer. Free wifi, I could have stayed in here for another hour!
