My husband and I were travelling back to Ontario from NB and found this divine spot in Rivière du Loup and had dinner there to celebrate our wedding anniversary.
We were so impressed by our server, Zachari who spoke both French and English, as he assisted us with our order. We decided upon the Table d’hôte and we were not disappointed. The cream of vegetable soup was light and flavourful. The main was so good! Shrimp risotto surrounded by perfect seasonal vegetables plus the most tender, melt in your mouth steak we’ve had in a very long time. The Caesar salad was just terrific. Dessert was blueberry cheesecake which was smooth and rich.
Zachari was attentive but not intrusive. He made our meal very memorable because he genuinely wanted to ensure we were enjoying ourselves.
Highly recommend this lovely restaurant.

Those on the table dining with me enjoyed their meal, one liked the pizza, the other loved the meat another said the steak isn't special. I didn't give it 1* cause of the person who enjoyed the meat. That is money...

The service was very well done: they were very attentive to our drink orders, and answered all our menu questions. I ordered the Caesar Salad, and the Risotto aux Crevettes et Petoncles Geants ( Shrimp and Scallops). Both had great flavors, colors, and presentation. I was unsure if the risotto was a little over-cooked, as it came across as "mushy". But the flavor was great, so I didn't discount the quality in the review. Similarly, I ordered the Carrot Cake for dessert. I didn't taste much carrot. But the cake was amazing, and worth eating every crumb. Definitely a great restaurant, with...
