Came to this place randomly after arriving in Quebec for the first time. All I can say is what a gem… Had an excellent burger meal on the patio. One of the best burgers I’ve ever had. The atmosphere and location was amazing. So calm, yet stylish. The owner is also very friendly. We chatted for about 40 minutes and he gave me lots of tips on where to go next in Quebec. Will definitely go back!

Was not expecting to find great food and drinks in a quiet neighborhood. I was only going to order the fries, which were great by the way, but Dave suggested the chicken wings. Best wings I have eaten in Gatineau. Came with a side of fried plantains, which had a slight crisp and delicious core. Going back for the fish. They are open for lunch as well.

Don't let the humble vibe fool you, the food is delicious. Walking in, the interior of the resturant feels a bit incomplete - but the food is what I keep coming back for. Every dish Ive tried (fish, chicken, ribs) has been outstanding - meat falling off the bone, full of flavour and covered in sauce. They also serve fried plantain, which is one of my favourite things in general, but this restaurant does it perfectly! Thick cut, crispy on the outside, and served with a cabbage salsa.
