During our visit to Mauricie National Park for hiking, we discovered this restaurant on TripAdvisor and decided to give it a try. We opted for the table d'hôte menu, which came with a salad, tea/coffee, and a delicious dessert. The pasta dishes we ordered were flavorful and came in generous portions, served hot and fresh. The service was efficient, with only one waitress attending to us, and our meals arrived promptly from the kitchen. We were able to enjoy our dinner at a leisurely pace, chatting and savoring each course with a glass of wine. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience, and we had a wonderful Wednesday evening at this charming restaurant.

This restaurant is located on a bustling street with plenty of dining options. The ambiance is very pleasant, with a great selection of background music that is just the right volume. We opted for the table d'hôte which saved us some money compared to ordering à la carte. We started with a Caesar salad and escargots à la bourguignonne, followed by lasagna for both of us. For dessert, we enjoyed the cheesecake and crème brûlée, along with coffee and tea. The service was excellent, and we were delighted to receive a plate of warm baguette slices with butter and oil/vinegar. The portions of lasagna were generous, but the Caesar salad could have used more dressing and better tossed lettuce. The cheesecake was not what we expected, as it did not come in cake form. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and will definitely return to try something new on the menu.

We were in the region to do some hiking in the Mauricie National Park. We found this restaurant on TripAdvisor and decided to try it.We had the table d'hôte menu which included salad and tea/coffee with dessert which were good. The pasta dishes we had were very tasty, generous portions, served piping hot! The restaurant was not too busy so the service with one waitress working was fine and we got our meals from the kitchen as soon as they were ready.We were not rushed, took our time eating each course, talking, sipping wine... It is a nice restaurant and we had a lovely Wednesday evening!

Very long service, waiting for 45 minutes to have our plates. We had to ask for bread 30 minutes after ordering. Speciality in paste but unfortunately mine was simply not eatable cat too much garlic. very bad because the resto is well located, the look is supper and warm decorations but it lacks a bit of management for what related to customer service 4 out of 10 for us

We went as a group for work and had whole restaurant for ourselves. About 75 total people. Food was decent and service great for the number of people but should have had more waitresses... we were offered a limited menu in advance but even then alot of us had finished eating and some had not even been served...it was about fifty fifty for comments on food...some loved it some didn't...
