    Great food, great ambience! Loved our server but it did take them quite awhile to see to us initially.

    Dine for 2 evening. No real save (small dessert half price).Ordered the smoked steak med rare. Lots of tough gristle throughout cut. Very dissappointed. Parmesan potatoes tasty but drenched in oil. The salad was original and great, the bread good but the grilled pepper mediocre...prefer a more balsamic touch to it. The lemon curd too sweet but still nice. Service was very pleasant... very nice people. I would not return mostly based on poor steak and the cost. You had to pay an extra $30 for it.

    God Bless Canada and this Godly restaurant. Our server, Michell, was the best server I have ever had. The potatoes were so good I would give up my offspring to have more of those things. I also ordered the Ginger Beef which they covered in brandy and set on fire. Talk about an entrance! I’ve regained my faith in humanity now that I know food this wonderful exists, I will be back tomorrow for sure

    Great Happy Hour deal, and food is amazing, our least favorite was the meatball, wasn't sold on the texture. But every other dish and cocktails were outstanding, our server was on point, a little robotic and not much emotions, but it was great, well done.
