Bistro La Traite - Châteauguay

Very nice place; the menu is not very big but what they offer is really good, not too pretencious, good wines, excellent service. Nice atmosphere.

Went for lunch and a walk on Ile Saint-Bernard. I had never been to the Bistro so we tried it for lunch. The food was casual fare but fresh and well presented, service was friendly and unpretentious. They also have a nice selection of craft beer. All in all a nice experience for family and friends.

We were there on a glorious day in late summer. We went through the deserted dining room to the moderate sized terrace (about 12 to 15 tables) and were promptly seated looking out over a large and pretty orchard. The specials were on the board as we came in ... all hamburgers, all at the same price as the à la carte menu.The lunch got off to a wobbly start when I noticed that the cutlery was not clean. This was changed promptly. Most of the menu deals with the beers that are available. There is ample variety and pricing is competitive with other restaurants. Beers came ... but no water. My friends took the Table d'hôte, I à la carte.The soup was minestrone, without distinction. It arrived at the table slopped into the saucer. I took the meat chili, my friends, hamburger, salmon and pasta. None of the food was exceptional. The dessert was apple pie. It was extremely disappointing commercial fare, made all the more so since we were in the lee of a magnificent orchard with 12 varieties of ripe apples! At least the apple pie could have been a signature dish.Upon settling up, I was charged for T d'H instead of À la C. Total for 2 people with 1 beer each, tax and tip was close to $60.Most restaurants in Quebec offer a lunch special where the price is less than the sum of the individual dishes. This is one of the rare exceptions where the special is more than the individual dishes, not by much, but again disappointing.

We stayed two nights at the huthouse located directly next to the bistro. Whoa! warm atmosphere, attentive service, nice selection of microbrewery beer and a very good table. Thank you again

We chose this place that seemed warm and located directly on the very site of the show we were going to see. despite the fact that the majority of customers had a reservation, a single waitress and a single chef on site to serve more than 30 customers!!! 20 minutes waiting for the aperitif and 45 other minutes waiting to finally manage our meal. misfortune the vast majority of the dishes displayed in the host table were not available. One hour later, only 2 of us were served. frustrated and stressed by time, in 10 minutes had to share the only 2 meals, run to pay, our show being in 5 minutes. Yeah, never again.
