We went there at about 6:30PM on a Thursday.Service:Service was very polite, prompt and classy. Waiters are well dressed, and they keep coming back for water refills. After our order, it didn't even take 5 minutes for the soup to arrive. Every waiter pitches in, so if one saw our plates were empty, she would take them away, another one served the meals. It felt like a good team spirit. They brought warm baguette bread before meals arrived, and offered more promptly when we finished it.Menu and Meals:The menu is fancy, slightly pricey with most meals in the 19-30$ bracket. The choices are varied and have great flavor combinations. We ordered the Portuguese Grilled Octopus as an entree, it was incredibly delicious, I definitely recommend it.I had the Red Snapper with Apple and Curcuma sauce. The fish was cooked to perfection, the sauce was bright yellow. The flavors combined well together, the apples giving that light sweetness finish. The sides (rice and vegetables) were perfectly cooked, delicious.My wife had the Duck Roast with Cranberries and Honey. It's a rolled duck roast that is then cut in small round portions. This was a little less successful for us. There was a layer of fat around each portion. At first you think maybe it can be eaten, but it's just fat. The duck tasted almost like liver, which is fine, but there were some stringy parts, so it was hard to chew. The side on the plate was a savory pumpkin tatin pie, which was interesting, I liked it.My mother in law had the Veal Flank Steak with green onion cream sauce. The dish was fine by her admission, but to me, the plate looked boring/thrown together. While our plates were well presented.. hers looked like a cheap diner had destroyed the veal and threw some fries on the side. Presentation wise, this plate needs to be fully revamped.Overall:The decor is amazing, the waiters were great, we had a nice U-shaped banquette, the food was still very good for the most part, I recommend this restaurant for a good diner.-----Je suis aller a ce restaurant avec ma femme et ma belle-mère, nous avons eu une experience plaisante, nous avons été bien reçu. Nous sommes allés la vers 6h30PM un Jeudi.Service:Le service etait poli, rapide et avait de la classe. Les serveurs sont bien habillé, et ils nous remplissais toujours l'eau rapidement. Après avoir commander, la soupe est arrivée en moins de 5 minutes. Tout les serveurs s'occupe de vous, même si ce n'est pas le votre, un autre peu remplir l'eau ou desservir la table, un bon esprit d'équipe. On nous a servis une bonne baguette chaude avant le repas, et ils nous en on offert d'autres après la soupe.Le menu et repas:Le menu est varié, un peu cher, tout les plats étant a peu pres 19-30$. Les choix sont spéciaux avec de bonne combinations de saveurs. Nous avons pris la Pieuvre Grillé a la Portugaise en entrée, c'était phénoménal, je le recommande.J'ai pris le Vivaneau aux pommes et Curcuma. Le poisson était cuit a la perfection, la sauce était jaune vif! Les saveurs ce combine bien ensemble, la pomme donne une saveur légèrement sucré en fin de bouche. Les a-cotés (riz et legumes) était parfait.Ma femme a prix le Roti de Canard au Canneberges et Miel. Ce plat etait un peu moins bien réussi pour nous. Le canard est roulé, ensuite coupé en rondelles. Chaque rondelle a une couche de gras alentour qui doit etre enlevé, a moins que vous aimier manger du gras. Le canard goutait un peu comme du foie, mais il y avait des bout veineux, donc on mache longtemps. En a-coté il y avait une tarte tatin au citrouille non-sucré. C'était intéressant comme concept.Ma belle mère a prix la Bavette de veau a la creme d'échalotte. Le gout était bon selon elle, mais de mon point de vue, l'assiette n'était pas bien présenté du tout. Nous on avais des belles présentations, elle on aurait dit une assiette d'un restaurant de patate cheap. Le veau avait l'air tout defait, et lancé dans l'assiette, avec un a-coté plate de frites comme rajouté en vitesse. Je pense que l'assiette devrait être repensé complètement.Au final:Le decor est très bien, les serveurs sont génial, nous avons eu une belle banquette en U, le repas était en général très bon, je recommande ce restaurant pour un bon souper.
