Feedback
The staff at the restaurant was extremely helpful and friendly. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. I began my dining experience with a delicious cocktail that was recommended by the staff.
We went to the St-amable on a Saturday night early August with friends. Installed at the outside on a small terasse mold that deserves to be enhanced in decor but the inside of the resto was of a suffocating heat. We took the host table at 29.95$ a bucco osso on linguine tomato sauce with vegetable soup. an ultra-diluted vegetable soup with water missing flavor. My plate comes with 3 well-appreted vegetables and linguine, my osso-bucco piece came with barely fat and bone meat hidden by a flaque of tomato sauce to hide that he had nothing to eat after. I brought the waiter to show him the piece in question, he was nice, c was excused and brought me a beautiful true piece of bucco osso with perfectly tender and tasteful flesh! My chum took the poutine to the brie and pepper sauce. frozen fries:( but it found it good and warm. my friend took a hamburger steak plate served very hot but definitely too salty. linguine primavera delicious. courteous personal service quick but ugly toilets! unsalubre, papers everywhere, urine smell and toilet. 2 toilets for the restaurant the customers who came out were indignant that a restaurant does not take care of the cleanliness of their bathrooms. I'm afraid of the cleanliness of their kitchen if I trust their toilet. brief people were sick. beautiful rustic stone wall and felty atmosphere I will return but must improve as soon as possible.
We ordered four dishes, and the steak was served cold. When we asked to have it replaced and requested it be well done, they brought us another one that was still undercooked, with blood visible inside the steak—so our friend couldn't eat it. Another dish, the osso bucco, was also poorly cooked, and we had to ask for it to be changed too. To make matters worse, the restroom was extremely dirty, making us feel nauseous. In the end, we paid our bill of 138 CAD and left a tip, but we wanted to share our feedback with the manager. The waiter outside claimed to be the manager, or at least pretended to be. When we expressed our dissatisfaction with the food and the cleanliness of the restrooms, he dismissed our concerns by suggesting we might be "bad customers." We were taken aback by such an impolite response. None of the customers seemed satisfied, and it's clear we won't be returning. This was the first time we've encountered such a disrespectful attitude in a renowned tourist area in Montreal. Be cautious if you consider dining there; you might end up regretting it as we did.
