★★★★★ 5.0 Local Guide from MTL · Jul 2025

Food was delicious and there was live music band playing on the patio. We asked to b inside because heat, server found us a place inside with views to the outside show. I misunderstood one of the plates i ordered. It was MY MISTAKE. The restaurant gave us the right order and didn’t charge us for the plate we ordered by mistake. They didn’t have to, but they did. 11/10 service from all the staff. I highly recommend this spot.
