Yannick Chasse Review of Le Steak Frites St-Paul
We use to come here every week with work colleague...
We use to come here every week with work colleagues. Steaks are not bad, but as everyone says this place is really overpriced. They have cut the portions in half, and raised the prices in the last year.
The main reason why we stopped going here is that, on one occasion the owner or manager was pissed at us because we were 3 people light on a 12 personnel reservation and made us wait for over an hour before we got served. People arrived after us, received their meals, eat and actually had time to leave before we even received our meals. We were compensated with frozen cupcakes and repeatedly hounded for being 3 people short.
Just before Christmas we went back the manager wasn't there and we had a great time service was good, so we planned another visit. This time the manager was there. We were a table of 8 he sat us in a corner table with only one exit. We created another small (about 1 foot) exit on the other side of the table so we could at least go to the washroom without disturbing the whole table trying to get out. His answer was no we can't do that and we should go to the washroom before the meal.
This guy has very little class, and I will never put another foot in a Steak Frites again, just to make sure I don't encourage a company with such poor management!
If you're in the area and you are looking for a great dining experience I recommend:
L'Accord (Great Restaurant, not a BYOW but impeccable service and just an outstanding place)
This is my 2 cents...
Just to be fair, the steaks are good though. If you want good steaks try the Keg, and the steak selection is actually greater too.
