What to Order
Arancini
These fried risotto balls are a popular appetizer, praised for being outstanding and visibly homemade.
"We took the arancinis and the beef tartare, everything was excellent and very visibly homemade, fresh and carefully prepared."
Julie Hébert
Smoked Duck Breast
A highly recommended main course, noted for its tenderness and smoky flavor, often served with a sweet accompaniment.
"The smoked duck breast was UNBELIEVABLY tender and delicious!"

Beef Tartare
This classic dish is well-regarded for its excellent preparation, often featuring a good amount of mustard and pairing well with bread.
"The beef tartare was very pleasant, lots of mustard and it paired with the bread beautifully! Had the full size and was full but not weighed down, service was good as well despite the size of our group!"
Y’alls Halls
Pork Bao
A flavorful dish featuring tender pork, often complemented by kimchi and pickled vegetables, served with a generous portion of fries.
"Went with family and we all got the Pork Bao and it was absolutely delicious. The pork was wonderfully tender and has a lovely flavour from the kimchi and pickled veggies on the Bao."
Jerri N
Cod
A well-prepared fish dish, described as creamy and perfectly cooked, offering a less sweet option compared to the duck.
"I definitely recommend the smoked duck and the cod dishes. The fish was creamy and well cooked, the duck breast was smoky and tender, it did have a lot of jam in it, so if you don't have a sweet tooth like me, probably best to go for the cod."
Radman
Sweet Potato Fries
These fries are a popular side, consistently described as succulent and a great accompaniment to any meal.
"recommendations : Tacos Minotaure and Roi Triton. Les frites de patates douces sont succulentes."
