This is a down-to-earth, casual, cozy bistro. Positive energy abounds. The question I have is why it's rated by some pubs as the best restaurant in Canada and fifth best in North America by the NY Times. It's not that it's undeserving of accolades, but it may or not be the best restaurant in Montreal. One could argue. Enjoyed both pastas, chicken liver mousse with radishes and fried chicken, and asparagus salad. The halibut was the only disappointment. It was a bit bland and the sauce failed to elevate it. I'll definitely return on my next visit to Montreal.

It is a cool concept, something I don't run across too often at home for nicer establishments. Wine glasses were already on the table, but they were cleared when I told them we had no wine. The menu is 3 courses, soup or salad, an entree and a desert. I had the penne with vodka sauce, my wife has the salmon and her mom had the lamb chops. Everything was very tasty and the servings were plenty, especially for lunch. The restaurant was huge and fairly empty mid day, which makes sense as I am sure it appeals mainly to business lunches. The deserts were pretty small, but that is fine, since it provides a nice sweet cap to the meal without getting too heavy. Coffee is also included.

Dark'n'Stormy, Expresso Old Fashioned, Hot Toddé are alcohol-free but you can always add a shot depending on your mood. Order a Penicillin, Cayenne Negroni, Pomme Collins, or a custom classic of your choice if you feel line something stronger. Today, a Nordic shrimp roll was calling me but will reserve that when I return with friends over a glass of white vino... for now, I opted for the menu du jour grilled cheese, and their signature latte with steeped rose petals and pink peppercorns - a brighter, fruitier, milder in spiciness than the black peppercorn. Opened in February 2021, headed by Pénéloppe Tancrède (Brasserie Harricana) and Gabriel Lavallé (Café Paquebot), is a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. What a beautiful first experience this was, and certainly won't be the last. Hope you get to discover this hidden gem!

Everything was perfect, I'd probably add a little bit more flavour to the chicken but that's my personal taste, some people would love it as it is... other than that I would totally order again.
