Cafe Soup’herbe

This is the most terrrrrible restaurant I have been to in a while service and food wise. I ordered a soup and the Thai curry. The soup came cold and when I asked to get it warmed up the waitress disappeared with my soup for ten minutes and it came back colder than before she took it so I asked for it to be heated up again and it reappeared five minutes later at a semi-​hot temperature. My Thai curry had zero resemblance of a curry and tasted like boiled red peppers. When I told the waitress it was inedible she said «I guess it depends on people’s taste». As someone who eats Thai almost every week I was insulted. When the bill came the curry was still on my bill and they refused to take it off. My mother and aunt had the samosa type meal and the veggie burger and both were alright. Do not expect good service and do not expect good food. Basically save your money and just don’t go.

Firstly, I’m a meat eater. Doubt I’ll ever give it up. Have to say I was pleasantly surprised with the vegetarian menu.
Have been here on two occasions this year. Sat on the patio under the beautiful foliage of Gatineau park. Had the lentil soup, antipasto, Red Curry Thai and three fruit crumble a la mode. Very pleased with the food, service and atmosphere. It is a bit expensive though.
Unrelated to the restaurant, a tip for luxury car owners. I found my black car was covered by tree sap drizzle bumper to bumper. Avoid parking under the trees. Took it to a touch less immediately and it all came off, phew! That stuff is nasty when it hardens. Difficult to remove and, being acidic, it can eat into the paint.
Back to the restaurant, on our second visit, the patio was packed. Sat inside by an open window. It was so nice to be in Gatineau park again. We were bit surprised that some of the items were missing on the menu. They ran out of ingredients on a Saturday night? No, antipasto, no avocados for their specialty salad. Waitress made a mistake on the bill. We had the peanutty Indonesian soup, Puttanesca tomato based pasta, and Chevrette salad. Very tasty and served in reasonable time. On the second occasion, the waitress lacked a bit of etiquette, fiddling with the dishware while my wife was still eating.

Excellent food, good service, a bit expensive but the quality of the ingredients is superior so I don’t really care, I love going there after the spa.
