“Superb evening! The tuna tartare was excellent and refreshing, accompanied by soft focaccia. Guinea fowl pappadelle and duck confit tortellini offer a unique and very refined experience in the mouth. Very good wines. The service is fast and the dish descriptions make you want to try everything. Definitely on the list to return soon. Note: the photos come from the Instagram account cameline.restaurant
Parking: Free parking for 2 hours on the street quite close to the restaurant (the same street)”
“First time visitor on March 23, to celebrate a friend’s birthday. The restaurant was happily booked up when I tried to make a reservation, so I was only able to secure a table at 5:15pm. I left a little note asking them to keep us in mind if there was a cancellation for a later spot, and they contacted me by email, text, and phone when a later table became available for 6:15pm. Very responsive and friendly staff. Our time at Soif was marvellous. The staff were friendly and extremely professional. Service was relaxed yet very polished. Our server was knowledgeable about the wine and took great care to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. We had a flight of wine to start, followed by a beautiful bottle of white, and a flight of bubbles to end our evening. We shared a half cheese/half charcuterie platter that came with a mountain of crispy and delicious crostini, the latter being refilled without having to ask. Such a small but lovely touch. We also shared roasted Brussels sprouts, frites and aioli, a bison tartare, and grilled radicchio, that were all delicious. They surprised my friend with a little dessert wine and candle to acknowledge her birthday, which was so kind and thoughtful. I have not a single critique. The team here works like a well-oiled machine. No one seemed frantic or rushed. It was a lovely evening. I (we) will definitely be back. Santé!”
“The food was phenomenal. The service, exceptional. You can tell the food is made with love. I had the taco salad, but also tried the green curry. Brunch is served until 2pm. Highly recommend trying this place. Updated from previous review on 2025-02-28”
“Première expérience et mon conjoint et moi avons adoré! L’endroit est superbe et le service impeccable! Très belle découverte! Nous y retournerons c’est certain!”

“Visited on March 5, 2019, before noon. Located on the very commercial section of Gatineau (a mall, bunch of stores and restaurants, etc.), inside a shared building with other business. There is parking, but it is a bit of a premium, although you can always take public transit. Definitely smaller than BDT and Gainsbourg in Hull, of course they are more the restaurant type, still a nice setup. One section with small tables for two and the other for groups. Not a big food menu, but quite interesting. The big hot dog smell good, but I went for the pan chicken with kimchi sauce, very nice. The tap menu was also small but good variety, although there was two variation of the Hypa IPA, but I went for the Double call Tiberius (Roman emperor), very solid, but so are the two others I had last January in cans. However, the store selection is kind of thin, only three kinds for sale that day, but then again they don't have the capacity like the two others. In all, a very good addition the Capital region beer scene!”
Restaurants with Delivery
“Florentine, The New Yorker and eggs, meat and potatoes.
Our server, Isabella, was nothing short of perfection. She took our drink orders and delivered them with prompt service and attention to the detailed requests of each customer. She was gracious, warm and so friendly.
Our servings were HUGE and very tasty. We enjoyed our time talking over great food.
Isabella was attentive without being intrusive. She topped off the coffee and made certain we were satisfied with our orders.
We will include Alpina in our trips to the region.
Parking: Large lot with easy access to building.
Kid-friendliness: There were no children present during our meal, but it looked quite welcoming for families.”
“It's a "sure shot" restaurant where it's always good to very good. On my last visit the service was perfect. I don't give 5 out of 5 for the food because it's not as spicy as I like.”
“Wow Wow Wow i love this place!! I discovered this wonderful bistro last summer 2022 after a Via Ferrata at Coulonge Park. Breakfast was divine! I have returned a few more times for souper “menu decouverte” and it was “a coup de foudre”. And this past Sunday morning my sister treated me to a brunch and once again L’Antonyme did not disappoint, and Joe is fantastic! Thank you!”

“We had Dinty’s cater to a small backyard wedding for 20 people. I dealt with Louis who was very helpful, patient and professional. The food was very delicious. I would highly recommend them for any event.”
“A wonderful restaurant steps from the office. Excellent food, cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The tartare is definitely worth ordering.”
“We had an incredible evening here! We started with the Portuguese Octopus as a starter, then the Veal Filet and Seafood Risotto as main courses. The Veal Fillet was perfect – we both gave it 5 out of 5. The meat was cooked to perfection, with just the right texture and temperature for us. The Seafood Risotto was also fantastic, but if you're a little picky ?, the lobster was a little difficult to remove from its shell.
We were completely full and had no room for dessert… but we couldn’t resist trying the Crème Brûlée!
We wish we knew the name of our waitress – she was wonderful. Our French is not very good, but she was very patient and let us practice while we ordered. Thank you for this fun experience with our French skills! ?”

“Absolutely perfect restaurant date at home:) On a commandé une livraison deux fois en trois jours! Nouveaux citoyens à Aylmer, nous le recommandons déjà à tous!”
“My father and I loved the Vegetarian Pizza, not the usual one, but it was the best we've eaten to date. The pigtail fries have been a long time since I ate them ahahah.
But to complain I would like to say that cursed its expensive a pizza with a large onion rings and an orangeade 60$ with taxes I think I went and found a pizzeria cheaper than its thank you it was good but too expensive for me budget.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“J'adore me rendre à cette boutique, les sandwichs sont excellents, les bubbleteas incroyable et le services à la clientèle exceptionnelle.”
“A very nice restaurant, nice welcome, good service although we had to call the waitress, the dishes were tasty and hot. It was full. We wanted to book two hours before our arrival and it was full. So we arrived around 5 p.m. and we got a table. On this Saturday evening, the music was disco and too loud, we took care to mention to the waitress that it would be preferable to have ambient music, even Italian, and less loud. The volume was reduced for 15-20 minutes, and the volume was increased.”

“Une très belle découverte. Mention spéciale au propriétaire Joey et ses employés dont Lan ... notre service a été impeccable, ce qui n'est pas à négliger par les temps qui courent. Nous nous sommes régalés. Je le recommande à tous ..”
“It's good - but it's expensive.
A burger for $20-25, drinks for $10 and more.
You won't get away with less than $40 per person after tax and tip. For a big burger and fries with a drink.
Is 12 wings $30?
10/10 for the atmosphere, and the service is also generally good - but at this price, I can make burgers for a whole family at home :/
5/5 total score, but a downside because of the prices.”
“5* all around. Very welcoming atmosphere. Food was delicious. Generous portions. Owner treated us with a lot of extra food to try it out. I highly recommend Chez Fatima!”

“I went to this restaurant one evening for a business dinner with friends. The service was good. The food was good too. The ownership of the premises was correct, nothing more. Ideal for a sporting event.”
“The food is really good, the service is amazing! Definitely a place we'll go back to! Thanks and good job!!!”
“WOW! We ordered 4 types of pizza as well as fried pickles. What more can I say than WOW! I recommend without any hesitation! We will go back there for sure! Well done to the whole team!”
“So I ordered this for lunch today. When I saw the cost of a medium 2 topping and garlic dip was 28$, I was really disappointed and thought it was way over priced.
I got home, I saw the most scrumptious pizza, it tasted incredible. Their house dip is by far the best garlic dip I’ve ever had. So 28$? Yup. Take my money! Will 100% be back!”

“A good homemade fried poutine. Sufficient quality and quantity of cheese and sauce. The staff are super nice and attentive if you have any questions!! Go take the detour”
“recently ordered takeout from Aki Sushi, located inside the supermarket, and I have to say that their service was truly excellent! Despite being part of a larger supermarket, the Aki Sushi team still managed to provide a standout dining experience.When I walked up to the Aki Sushi counter inside the supermarket, I was pleasantly surprised by the warm and friendly service. The staff there were efficient and made sure my order was prepared to perfection.The Pad Thai Poulet and Pad Thai Crevette were absolutely delicious and showcased the same level of quality you'd expect from a standalone restaurant. The General Tao Poulet remained crispy and flavorful, which can be a challenge in a supermarket setting.The Sushi Salmon Philadelphie was a delightful treat, and the Shrimp Martine was equally tasty. The fact that they can maintain such high standards while being inside a supermarket is truly commendable.Aki Sushi inside the supermarket not only offers excellent food but also excels in customer service and food quality. I'm looking forward to my next takeout experience from them. Highly recommended!”
“The food took a while to arrive (nearly an hour), but the service was excellent and attentive. The poutine, while tasty, was a bit small for the price. On the other hand, the tartars were simply delicious! In terms of comfort, high tables and their stools are not ideal for a long meal, but bench seats offer a much more pleasant experience. I recommend!”
“Food quality and service is amazing. Armel has been one of the most accommodating and helpful server's I have ever met. I've seen her work many roles and an astonishing level of customer service. Cocktails at Kato serve a higher level of quality and similar cost to the spa. Keep up the great work !”
“Came here as part of a group for our work christmas party. Overall pretty good experience, but not their A game.maybe it was becuase we were a group of 15-20, or maybe it was just an off day for them. I don't hold it against them or the staff.
Ordered the Calamari, Cod Fritters, and the Chicken Supreme BLT. Wanted the Cowboy sandwich, but was not available, which was a shame, but it happens.
Cod Fritters and Calamari were pretty good, but relied heavily on the sauces for flavor.
The Chicken Supreme BLT was also pretty good, but I felt the pizza dough bun was not fully cooked, which is a shame, because the chicken and dressing were really good.
Got the Brie & Mushrooms Burger for take away for my roommate, said it was very tasty, so I'm glad he enjoyed it.
Overall, not terrible, but not the best possible outcome either. I chalk my experience was a one off.”
“Great restaurant. I recommend hunan dumplings (they’re not as spicy as a few years back) and sesame beef. They’re amazing dishes
Parking: Really small parking, lot of space available in the street from a reasonable walking distance”
“This is such a cozy, calm place to come eat.we love the food always fresh and so tasty. You can also bring your laptop to do some studying and / or working remotely”
“Excellent, fast and friendly service from the kind Ariane!!! Thank you very much for your good humor! 😁 Always a pleasure to have dinner and a good beer at this lovely restaurant/bar!!! 🍻 Beautiful decor and very good atmosphere! Large, pleasant terrace and a delicious menu with several choices at very affordable prices 👍”
“Très bon service, un beau petit buffet pas cher. Content d'être tombé dessus durant nos vacances. Par contre, pas de dessert en dehors des biscuits. Si vous êtes une bibitte à sucre, ce n'est peut-être pas votre restaurant idéal.”
“I had amazing food at Buffet Gong Gong! The Kung Pao Chicken was the standout dish; it was flavorful and just the right amount of spicy. Not to be missed were the delectable and freshly made dumplings. In light of the quality and portion amounts, the pricing are fair. I'm eager to return and peruse more of the menu. Strongly advised!”
“Service sometimes only in English, but impeccable service.
Delicious pizza: very airy dough, just enough good sauce, good cheese, good price, I'm super happy with my try 😋”
“Cuisine: We must be precise about the cooking and the quantities otherwise the employees melt it too quickly and miss the cooking 1 time out of 2. The owners always have perfection. (7/10)
Service: The employees make errors on the billings to check but the owners are always correct. (8/10)
Atmosphere: small local pizzeria with really friendly owners. (8/10)”

“Basic food menu, nothing fancy, but tasty well prepared plates that hit the spot. Service is impeccable, our waitress was attentif and focused to our every needs with a smile. We came in at the same time with a large group of 10 , and were a bit apprehensive but the food came out boom boom boom and delicious!”
“This place is perfect for date night on Wednesday. Drinks and a movie in an outdoor setting makes for a great evening.”
“Absolument délicieux! Je ne suis pas une fan de salade généralement, mais j'ai essayé les salades d'Olivia, et omg que c'était bon! Et les tacos - MIAM!”
“Little shop that delivers a big selection of delicious menu items. Very good and fresh sandwiches, excellent coffee and delectable shakes and desserts. Plenty of seating available after getting fast, friendly service. Scrumptious veggie sandwich options available.”
“Surprising!
I'm not a big fan of restaurant chains when it comes to brunches and lunches.
I still stopped at Mikes this morning to try their morning selection.
It was really good, especially for the price.
My waitress was radiant, full of energy and smiling even during the morning rush!
The food was really good, simple and effective.
Mikes, I owe you an apology.
The experience was great!
a solid 7/10.
xx”
“Very impressed. Well managed establishment. Went many times and allways had a very high quality food. And now they just opened breakfast service and also very impressed. Food was excellent. Everything on my plate was delicious. Bravo ?”
“Le Pirate is a nice looking restaurant in a very nice location. Great service but the food is a bit lacking. It was still good but not that great. It's more like basic food for everyone. It would be nice if they would put more emphasis on the pirate yarrrr stuff. By that, I mean, don't pirate your fries from Costco! ;P If they tune up their recipe a bit, I think they could raise up the bar by a lot. Just be a bit more fancy please as I would like to return!”
“I was a bit sceptical to visit the restaurant due to the previous reviews, but still decided to give it a try and OMG was I amazed ! The food was amazing and the service was even better. A young girl served me and she had the most beautiful smile. She was warm and welcoming. I am a vegetarian so she gave me multiple options that weren’t even on the menu a brought me a beautiful filling spanakopita plate. I will definitely be back for the other vegetarian options that this restaurant had to offer !”
“Wonderful service, great food and more than ample portions. We’re from Florida, USA, and make it a point to eat at St. Hubert in whatever city we visit. We’ve never been disappointed, and this particular restaurant maintained the quality and service we’ve come to expect and enjoy. Merci beaucoup, St Hubert Gatineau…we hope to see you again!”
“I had the fish and fries! The fish was fresh, well fried, not too oily, the fries were awesome! They have a la carte deserts and buffet as well with ample choices! Service was not good. There is room for improvement there.”
“The delivery service works very well! Never had any cons. The pizza is excellent. We like to try new varieties. The garlic sauce that comes with their fries is one of the best mayonnaise type sauces I've tried, it's sick! Even that we often add one more! ?”
“C'est la première fois que je reçois de vrais nachos! C'est malade y en a du stock et au porc effiloché en plus wow. Vous êtes les seul qui avez cette qualité de nachos. Merci!”
“The best Sushi in Hull. Always fresh! Always excellent service. I gave the atmosphere 4 stars because unfortunately since after “Covid” the dining room is absent. But I will eat there several times a week. ?????
Vegetarian options: Yes
Parking: Thank you for your service and quality.”
“(Translated by Google) Inside the tavern there is a small Chinese restaurant whose cuisine and quality of its food is unbelievably good! Visit it if you can. They won't regret it.(Original)Dentro de la tasca hay un pequeño restaurante chino cuya cocina y calidad de sus alimentos es increíblemente bueno! Visitenlo si pueden. No van a arrepentirse.”
“Of everywhere I have tried in the region this has been my favorite pizza. Amazing ingredients perfectly done and you can tell care and attention has been put into the pizza. Very friendly staff too I could tell from the way he picked up the phone the pizza was about to be good.”
