    The service and food quality is absolutely amazing. My wife and I have been trying to get reservations for years and finally we were successful on the evening of our 35th Anniversary. From the Hostess to the servers Adam, Godwin and the AGM Johann, everyone were super attentive and provided great input about the menu options chosen. The Steak Tarta & French onion Soup, both developed tastefully with the perfect combination of herbs & spices and creatively presented. The Brome Lake Duck and poached pear a perfect combination of sweet and acid complementing the tender meat of the pine- glazed Duck. The Lamb Rack, tender and tastefully matched with the white port jus and charred broccoli, made for a mouth watering pallet. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening and ended it with a rich cappuccino and Black Forest gâteau which we romantically shared and now look forward to our next visit, hopefully soon.

    My parents and I had a wonderful dinner outing after my Dad had a conference nearby! Probably one of my favourite spots in the Financial District—hidden away in an office building which was a little difficult to navigate but found our way. I tried the PB Espresso and the Grilled Rigatoni Alla Zozzona, which was absolutely delicious. The dish was full of flavor, and the sausages paired perfectly with the creamy rosé sauce. Our server was incredibly friendly and attentive. I’ll definitely be back!
