Sapristi...bistro bar — Restaurant in Quebec

If I could rate this place less than one star I would. I came to this restaurant Sunday afternoon and went to the bar side and had the best service ever! She was attentive and was so, so understanding that we were tourists and explained everything on the menu so well! The food was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere we so nice. We then decided to try the place again since we had such great service and drinks. We tried the dine in side, and Kevin was our server Tuesday night, it was absolutely terrible. He didn’t give us a name (we looked on the receipt). We asked for bread, didn’t bring it, he didn’t come back until HE wanted to take our order. He was not so up- beat and didn’t really come off as though he really liked his job. He was miserable, didn’t smile or try to start conversation with us. After we finished our drinks, we waited to get a few more but he didn’t come back to the side of the restaurant for at least 15 minutes. We waited and waited, still nothing. Finally, the food runner brought our food over and the food was amazing as always. But he didn’t check up on us nor did he ask if we wanted more drinks. After our food, he came over to take the plates, didn’t give us a minute to speak to him and get our drinks or ask if our food was good. After about 30 minutes of sitting there, we finally got our bill and we decided that we were only going to leave a certain percentage because of how terrible the service was. This is where it gets bad. Myself and my friend had to use the bathroom while our boyfriends waited outside, after we came down the stairs Kevin decided to approach myself and my friend and harassed us in front of everyone in the restaurant. Demanding more money, stating that “he gave the best service he could”. Me and my girlfriend didn’t know what to say, he was harassing two women for more money, when clearly he didn’t deserve it. Sad to say, but I will never return to this restaurant, good food but the service is terrible. If you want to keep customers, I say get...

We came here for lunch after a long walk! We sat in the patio and the atmosphere was very neutral, nothing fancy. The inside however very classy yet modern! As you go to washrooms the “open view” of the kitchen gives you a little preview of how your food is getting ready and the sights does not disappoint. The hostess told us to wait a minute and she’ll get a table for us! But she forgot about us and sat 6 people that arrived after us! No reservations were made either. I got Lime and Baslic as my drink (virgin). The strawberries were so fresh and the drink tase was so delicious and balanced. We also ordered Greek Salad and Calamari to start. The calamari is basic Bar calamari but the sauce was very delicious.The greek salad on the other hand very fulfilling and everything was fresh and very beautifully dressed. Loved salad I wish there was more leaves compared to other components. I ordered Risotto and my Husband ordered Duck Penne. Food came on time and everything was nice and hot. The extra parmesan was not needed honestly 😂 nice to have but both of our dishes was nicely prepared and nothing extra was needed. Both dishes were beautifully plated as well. My risotto was cooked beautifully and was sooooooo delicious! I 100% recommend it! My husband loved his duck penne as well. All of our food was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately there was not enough room for desert but a great excuse for us to go back. 🥲

The server Pascal was very professional and fast with all the orders and requested items. Very friendly and welcoming! 5 starts for him ❤️ and he took amazing pictures of our family. If the restaurant had live music it would have been a magical place. As I observed the hostess it felt she was overwhelmed with all the incoming guests! 2 hostesses would have been better experience for the...

Small place where they serve Italian/French food.

Staff and waiter are friendly and will take care of your needs, very open minded. French onion soup was a stunner and would recommend for anyone to give it a try. For the main course we had Arabbiata and Flatbread margherita.

Will have given a 5* food rate if the pasta was properly cooked, it was overcooked to the point that the pasta would break at the touch of the fork. The dish wasn't spicy enough, it could also use some more imagination from the kitchen for the presentation, the plate was very boring and we had to ask to the waiter for parmesan and pepper to give color to the dish. The pizza just needed a bit more salt, it felt very bland but wasn't too bad.

Service could use a bit more time to give out the main course, as the appetizer usually takes some time to eat. Serving the main course while you are not finished eating will just make the customer annoyed and the food cold.

Small place will make for a very loudly environment. Please skip if you are sensitive to sounds or looking for a romantic dining.

Overall I would recommend for any Quebecois, but for any Italian looking for a place to satiate their needs, to be very specific to...
