Behind a large elegant carved wooden door lays a restaurant raved for their elevated québécois rôtisserie experience in a beautiful and lively brasserie setting.
The appetizers at Rôtisserie La Lune were all fantastic and are great additions to any meal. The XL croqu'ailes stuffed wings were crispy, juicy, and utterly indulgent, and the mustard sauce was a strong complement. The buns were soft with a satisfying chew, and the accompanying onion butter was mouth-wateringly fragrant. The chicken and raviolini soup was the highlight of the meal; it was deeply flavorful, heartwarming and filling.
Unfortunately, we found the chicken to have been a disappointing experience as it was overcooked and dry. With rôtisserie chicken being the prime focus of the menu, we had higher expectations, especially with all the positive reviews for this restaurant. Admittedly it was also a particularly hot and humid summer evening, and we are willing to give the benefit of the doubt that perhaps weather conditions affected cooking times and temperatures.
The accompanying fries were the perfect poutine fries; cooked dark enough for the potato to taste sweet. The gravy was well-spiced with a hit of what I assume is ginger. The unlimited coleslaw was fresh and creamy.
The service were incredibly smooth, professional and highly efficient, and we were made to feel very welcomed and well-accommodated.
Overall, we enjoyed our experience at Rôtisserie La Lune for the most part. We were disappointed that the chicken was overcooked and dry, but perhaps it was a bad day. We look forward to coming back, perhaps during the colder seasons, to have an experience that hopefully better reflects what they have to offer.
