DeLIGHTful surprise! Online description said "cozy and casual" so we walked in with a 2.5 yr old and a 3-mo old after long travelling day. So much glassware on the white-covered tables, very stately decorated...stay or go? Wait staff made us feel very comfortable (removing much of the glassware), highchair and NEW colouring book/markers to keep for little one. 😊 No liquour license, but could bring your own wine, which, fortunately, my daughter stocked up in Ontario before we left...corking fee? Not 20$ like in Halifax, $1.10 per person...$2.20 extra for our nice, delicious wine. She brought an amuse-bouche in a very small bowl of mushroom bisque topped with a rosette of real cream. Omgoodness... incredible. Small spring mix salad with sparse/but enough poppy seed dressing...Great. Brought out, unbidden, a plastic plate of veggies, crackers and cheese for little one as we said we would just share our meals. Then came oven roasted French breads with roasted red pepper butter rosettes...who comes up with this? Excellent! We shared appetizers of escargots and scallops, both done to perfection in to-die-for sauces (wish we hadn't eaten all the bread). I had a seafood crêpe, small scallops/trout pieces in rich sauce, daughter had filet mignon, a bit over the medium rare order but unbelievably tender. Incredible Mother's Day treat...looking forward to going...
Read moreYOU NEED TO STOP AND EAT HERE!!!! We came to eat here again last night. When we make plans for our road trips our #1 Place on our list to stop is Chantal ' Steak House! Top notch atmosphere. Reasonable prices. Great service. The food is incredible! The filet melts in your mouth. She serves a variety of dipping sauces on your plate and each one is a delight. You also get a sample of something from the chef, last night it was a cream soup with cream truffle topping. Amazing. The restaurant is french however they accommodated us as English as the servers were bilingual. Chantal is hands on in her restaurant. She takes time to meet her customers whenever possible. The first time we went she took time to tell us how she started her business and this time she was cooking in the kitchen but still took time to come out to say goodbye to her regulars. Dress up and come for a complete experience that will leave you satisfied in every way. Don't forget to bring your own wine! If you don't... try the lemonade it's very refreshing. My husband said I need to repeat that the food is splendid. We traveled 1300 kilometers to get there and it was worth the drive just to eat at Chantal's , even if we had to turn around and go back home...
Read moreI entered in the restaurant and first thing I noticed, smell clean, looks clean so good you could eat of the floor. Ambiance and decor make you feel like a very distinguished person. The waitress was very polite and full of attentions. During the dinner, she discreetly came 4 times to fill up our glass of water and make sure everything stayed perfect. She never interrupted us while we were talking and I appreciate such professionalism. The chef gave us, to my opinion, the best fillet mignon I ever had in my entire life!!! It was melting in my mouth. At on point in the dinner the chef came to see us to get feedback on the dish and again I felt very appreciated as a client. I could keep on and describe my dish in 4 pages of notes and it wouldn't be enough to cover it. I went to the bathroom at the end before I leave and again, bathroom was spotless!!! They make you feel like a king and they take pride treating you like it. They had to roll me out the door!!! I was so full!!! Under 60$ getting a meal like this!!!! Unbelievable!!!! I will recommend this steakhouse in a heartbeat. Believe me it worth...
