Not a lot of yelpers on the Winnipeg site - but it has been improving over the last while if you can believe it! I wish more people would yelp here but I think more people like to read the reviews than write. It is hard to judge a place when there's only one review on a place and two if you're lucky!
As for Resto Gare, I think it's fine to go alone with your book. The place has a lot of history to it but it's not fancy in a snobby way. There's a the train section (literally you sit in a train car) or in the regular dining room. Often, one is more busy than the other, so you can choose the more quiet section to enjoy your meal in. I think they're open on Sundays so maybe it'll be more quiet? I'm not sure.
Since you're near the airport, I forgot about this other Portuguese place that makes super juicy roast chicken (among other Portuguese dishes) called Chave d'Ouro. http://www.yelp.ca/biz... They close fairly early like 8 pm but great place to dine in for a quick meal or pick up something for dinner as it's not too far from the airport, but really, nothing is too far in this city if you have a car. There isn't much in terms of decor but great comfort food.
