Located in quaint downtown St. Catharines right by the hockey arena, this dimly lit bistro hangout is a study of contrasts. Oyster platters, caviar service and multiple dishes with foie gras are luxurious, French-coded indulgences. At the same time, a large chalkboard menu also offers golden-fried chicken sandwiches and carefully built house-ground burgers. Truly, there is something for everyone in this unsuspecting restaurant that doesn’t take itself too seriously while still cooking with proper care and attention. Counter seats at the bar offer up-close views of the kitchen. A short but thoughtful list of cocktails keeps spirits high.
