Martin and his team delivered outstanding service. Our server, Sarah, was exceptionally attentive to our group of four adults and a baby. Despite the extra care required, we felt truly welcomed. The food was delicious, and they effortlessly accommodated the dietary restrictions of our party member with celiac disease. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We celebrated our mother’s birthday at L'escale and had an exceptional experience. The staff were outstanding, and the food was absolutely delicious. Our server, Timi, was exceptionally friendly and attentive, making our visit even more special. The elegant hotel setting added to the charm, and we only wished we had more time to explore the nearby Yew Point walkways.

Exceptional service. The young woman who served us was one of the friendliest and most welcoming people I have ever encountered. The food was outstanding, and the service was impeccable.

To Martin and the team, the food was absolutely delicious and the staff were very friendly. I would definitely dine here again and recommend it to everyone.

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner at L'Escale Hodson Bay tonight, made even better by our waiter Martin. He recommended an excellent Italian red wine, and we had a lovely conversation about Rome and our travels. Delicious food and outstanding service. We’ll definitely return.

Martin and his team at Hodson Bay Hotel provided an amazing dining experience from beginning to end. The staff was beautiful and friendly, offering delicious steaks and creamy brûlée for dessert. Wine tasting with Andres was highly recommended. The menu featured a fantastic tortellini, perfectly cooked mashed and seasoned vegetables, and creamy soup. The staff was accommodating and attentive, even catering to dietary restrictions. A birthday celebration was made special with complimentary Prosecco and dessert. A group of 20 enjoyed a perfect culinary experience, praising the friendly staff and delicious food. Overall, the restaurant comes highly recommended for its exceptional food and service.

We were a party of 20, mix of adults, teenagers and children for my mother's birthday party. We had such an excellent culinary experience. Nice menu, fantastic friendly staff and delicious food. We were all super impressed and highly recommended. Hudson Bay's team should be proud of their staff. Thank you for a nice evening.

We enjoyed dining at L'escale during our stay at the Hodson Bay Hotel. Martin and his team delivered outstanding service, and we were particularly impressed by the steaks and the delicious crème brûlée for dessert. I highly recommend exploring the menu at L'escale.

Martin and the team were very friendly and provided excellent service. We didn’t have to wait long for our food.

Delicious meal. The tortellini was fantastic. The mashed potatoes and vegetables were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The soup was incredibly creamy, and the crumble was to die for. There was an endless supply of bread and butter. The staff were very attentive and friendly. We had a large gathering, and everything was handled perfectly. I have nothing bad to say about the food.

An incredible experience from start to finish with Martin and his team. The staff were wonderful and friendly, and the food was outstanding. I will definitely be returning. Thank you, Martin and team!

You need a reservation for it. The wine list is decent too and the food is not bad either. Try it out if you are around. Staff is super nice and friendly.

Lovely restaurant at a hotel. We had no reservation but we got a table as it wasn't too busy, and the staff was very helpful. We went for a dinner, and the food was delicious the lamb as well as the seabass. The atmosphere is also very cozy and romantic. I can only recommend this place if you are staying at a hotel or driving by
