    Absolutely phenomenal. If you can - sit at the bar and you can watch the action of them making every dish. From the host, Chloe, to the server, Nick, it’s such a treat. Genuine care, fun, and experience. The savoury canales were my favourite, and my friend loved the baked oysters. Tartar was soooo delicious on the Montreal bagel too. One of my favourite restaurants and I keep on coming back.
