Fodor's Review:

The name translates to the Pump House, and in its heyday it drained the neighboring dry dock to allow for ship maintenance. And it still looks the part. Boasting an eclectic style with Art Nouveau features, the vast interior has an impressive 23-foot pit with iron parapets and round arch windows with original metal rods. Today, it has no loftier purpose than to provide an impressive interior, the better to savor goose-liver terrine with shallot compote and a fine herbes salad. Make a trip to the washroom to view the heavy steel pump doors.
