We went to l’Académie in Pointe-Claire
today, me and about 10 other customers, we were all sick at the same time.

I had only eaten a tiny salad entrée (no
taste and bad seasoning) and shared a fried calamari entrée with someone (also
bad seasoning and very greasy).

Just before my main arrived, I felt sick
and went to the restroom only to discover that a lot of other people were being
sick at the same time as me…

I can’t speak for all the Académie
locations, but NEVER go to the one in Pointe-Claire!!

At least the restaurant was smart enough to
not charge our meals!

As I've been passing by the place manier times and seeing how crowded it always was, I was curious to know the experience people had in this restaurant even if I didn't intend to go. Why? Too crowded, huge line up not to mention the crowded sidewalk filled with it's patrons(must be a lot of in/out movements for a tight spot). And after reading all the comments, it's amazing how this place's still full.

I tryed many locations. And it's the same thing each time! Not impressive. Your going out of this restaurant with a feelingt of a non-accomplishment. You fill yourself to survive to the next meal. I can do this with 0.50$ hot dogs.

Kind of restaurant who trying to be too much.

Food is pretty mediocre, but I was pretty surprised by the one on Crescent the last time I went. Whatever, it's relatively cheap, and if she doesn't know better it's easy to impress a date.

We have been to l’Académie on boul. Galerie d’Anjou a few times, long time ago. First visits were great, they were not busy, food and service were excellent. Every visit since was a disaster. When they get busy, expect to have platters dropped from the waiters arms as they scurry up and down the stairs to the 2nd floor. And long waits, very long waits. When they’re busy, they don’t seem to have enough staff. The tension is palpable. Don’t accept a table near the door when they’re busy, you’ll be in the middle of a mess of activity. They can do it right, though. You just have to be lucky to be there at the right time.

I agree. Shitty. The mussels were not cooked properly. Very mediocre. Why are there line-ups all the time?
