   Excellent sharing plates. The lamb tartare stood out as did the roast chicken main. Service by all of the staff was top notch! Such a beautifully decorated restaurant. Well done!

   Absolutely awesome. Food had a fun twist on some modern classics. Service was exceptional. If you’ve been disappointed with toronto expensive menus that underwhelm, try this place, as it will exceed your expectations.

   Great experience. We had multiple shareable appetizers- bluefin carpaccio was the stand-out for us, but we enjoyed them all. Service was 100%. Will definitely be back.

   My friend and I had a wonderful experience here. We didn't know what to expect but had heard good things about the place. Service was excellent and the food was amazing. I also appreciated the list of creative non-alcoholic beverages for myself! Do yourself a favour and don't skip out on dessert!

   Outstanding dinner - one of the best meals I've had in Toronto in ages. My partner and I came here last Saturday for my birthday and we had such a great experience. Everything was 10/10 - honestly! All the dishes we ordered were hits, but we especially loved the burger, the wedge salad (the horseradish cream!), surf & turf and banoffee pie, but really you can't miss. Usually there's one or two dishes that aren't as good, but every dish was so tasty, balanced, creative, we loved it. And the little touches - maybe just me but I just loved the jolt of nostalgia getting a lemon water bowl for after eating the chicken wings. And the service was excellent too - we sat at the bar so it was especially attentive, but also warm and genuine, it felt like they were actually happy to be there, which is so rare. Plus the room is beautiful and the lighting is really perfect. Favourite new restaurant :)

   I celebrated my birthday here with my husband. Unfortunately we were seated next to the kitchen and the service door downstairs so we didn't get the best views of the space which is too bad as it is an interesting room. Service was quite good, no complaints. The food had hits and misses. Our biggest disappointment was the $118.00 ribeye. The meat was a bit tough and the flavour was off. All we could taste was lamb. Not quite sure why. I think if you are serving a $118 plate of beef, it better be amazing. I would say the best thing we ate was the Banoffee pie dessert. The Bluefin Carpaccio was also quite good, as well as the endive salad. The rest of what we ordered was average. We had a good time, but probably will not return. Overall, it is overpriced for what it is.
