Case: This is NOT Mexican food. I repeat NOT Mexican food! We walk in, nice place, kind of surprising how cute it is inside. The booths have pillows, and are cozy very cool. To get appetizer and drink specials you HAVE TO SIT AT THE BAR. Oh and chips and salsa cost money, nothing free here! \n\nThe margaritas are on \""special\"" for $5. Not that great. Also not worth sitting uncomfortably at the bar to get. \n\nWe were the only people there, on a Friday night. Yes, it was before 5pm or 6pm,, but really? The wait staff was super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed (except real mexican food maybe?). \n\nThe menu had pork chops, pork loin, sandwiches and ribs. So don't go here thinking it is a Mexican food place like we did PLEASE. The food was marginally \""ok\"". The spiciness was \""ok\"". The red \""smoked\"" sauce tasted burned, and the actual food on my boyfriend's carne adovada WAS burned. It was also very DRY... this is their specialty dish?\n\nService good,, but not even close to worth the 50 bucks we threw down for the meal for 2 people and 2 drinks. \n\nJust know you are going for a....want to be higher class restaurant... that really has nice ambiance, but the food is not up to par.

Case: I agree with Johnny S. - I too am surprised that this place isn't busier.\nHowever the food is well balanced, fresh and authentic. Their minestrone is the best I've had. I love fried zucchini and while I wouldn't typically order it at most Italian places, we did here and it was FRESH! Not the thin/frozen pieces you find at other places.\n\nI also love that they have Birra Morreti, you find Peroni at a lot of places but not Morreti. \n\nI've had a few different entrees and both have been fantastic. Cannelloni was my most recent and they ground the meat fresh and made the white sauce to order...you can tell by the flavor.\n\nI will frequent more often now that I just found out about their 4-6PM extended lunch pricing!

Case: Being the only other Dim sum houses in Montreal (Kam Fung being the other) I was disappointed in the food.\n I'm from NYC and quickly realized how spoiled we are since we have 2 Chinatowns (NYC & QUEENS) So after moving here I asked around where we can have dim sum and was told Ruby Rouge.  Nice large dim sum house but the food was not up to par.  Being chinese and knowing good dim sum you can always tell by a good dim sum house by their \""Har Gow\"" ( shrimp dumping)  Sort of like going to a italian restaurant and finding out they can't make a proper plate of spaghetti!   In A har Gow-The Shrimp dumpling rice skin should be soft, moist, silky and the inside should have full perfectly cooked shrimps inside!  \n~Fail~ Not what we got at Ruby Rouge! Tough rubbery skin and tasteless over cooked shrimp!  I won't go into the other 3 dishes we ordered... I will say that the size of the dim sum was unusually LARGE so you will fill up but as one reviewer (Jando S.) said \""Bigger isn't always better though\""  The food was just adequate!\nHe was absolutely dead on about his review (see below \"" Jando S.\"")\n\nI even went back 2 more times on weekends and week days and it was the same.\n\nIn short if you can't get into La Maison Kam Fung then some dim sum is better than no dim sum!

Case: This was one of the most gratifying experiences of my life. Ok well it was pretty delish! I mean the assortment of flavors in meats. I was in meat heaven!  A bit pricey, however, sign up and you get a buy one get one free coup for your b-day.  If you are a vegan this is not the place for you.  \nOh and go hungry... get your money's worth. We filled up easily in 20 minutes with a array of tastes.

Considreing the above, classify the following: Took my truck in to get fixed with pretty minimal damage to it.  It needed a grill and some head lights replaced no engine damage.  They kept my vehicle for almost 3 weeks.  I continually got voice mails from staff members telling me one estimated pick up date and hearing something entirely different from someone else.  The staff in the office was friendly and apologetic but at some point apologies only go so far...
