    Beautiful atmosphere! It was very crowded, but the noise level was fine. Service is on point, not rushing us, but attentive. We liked the menu and had a hard time deciding what to order. Would highly recommend the French onion soup, served in a big crock, full of onions and amazing cheese. Request the bread for dipping! The duck special was a ten. Cooked perfectly. Seafood casserole - decadent. We had to get the truffle popcorn for a side and everyone loved it. Don’t miss the desserts. Worth every calorie.

    I ordered the grilled walleye fish, and my husband had the Canadian beef flank steak. The food was delicious, and the overall experience was amazing. A special thanks to Annick for going the extra mile with her service. We also appreciate the whole team for accommodating our food preferences and for the complimentary treat that made our first anniversary even more memorable.

    Beautiful restaurant. Excellent food and great service. We went last year and want in the same area and our server, Annie and Sherri (who had served us last year) both recognized us. What a treat to be greeted so nicely. That kind of attention always warms my heart, and I shows the level of service and dedication both Annie and Sherri has to their craft. Will be back again and again! Don’t forget the food! Hummm hummm!!!!

    Lovely spot with gorgeous view. Waitress was very friendly. Found prices to be a little extravagant but we’re glad of the experience.

    Peut-être que nos attentes étaient trop élevées, mais nous avons été un peu déçus. La nourriture était bonne mais rien d’extraordinaire pour le prix. Nous avons pris la soupe à l’oignon en entrée qui était bien, mais pour les plats principaux, la bavette était correcte sans plus et le plat de pétoncles décevant pour le prix. Le service était très bon que ce soit à l’accueil ou le serveur, le personnel était sympathique et serviable.
