What to Order

Boudin

This blood sausage dish is a standout, praised for its exceptional flavor and presentation, making a memorable impression.

"Notre souper du 27 décembre était parfait. Le boudin : un plat WoW."

Mélissa Racine

Gnocchis

While portions are noted to be small, the gnocchis are consistently described as very good, flavorful, and well-seasoned.

"J'ai coupé les gnocchis en 2 afin de les déguster plus longtemps! Il a presque fallu les compter et les diviser; c'est pathétique. Par contre, c'était très bon. Assez goûteux et assaisonné."

Darn Tough

Huîtres (Oysters)

The oysters themselves are highly regarded for their quality, though the mignonette might not be to everyone's taste.

"J'ai pas aimer la mignonette des huitres, par contre les huitres etais tres bonne."

Sebastien Nobert

Vin orange (Orange Wine)

Épi offers a good selection of wines, with orange wine specifically highlighted as a great choice to accompany your meal.

"Bonne sélection de vin, surtout le vin orange."
