    Thai Style Shrimp
    Neil K.

    We continue enjoying dining at Brandl. Restaurant Week gave us good reason to go again though the choices for RW are limited. We ordered both from the specials and from the a la carte menus. Lobster bisque and Oyster Rockefeller a perfect start. Both the Thai Shrimp, on the RW menu and the Everything Bagel crusted Salmon were delicious. Midweek on a cold night the service was very attentive. It is a little pricey but BYOB sure helps.

    First time dining at Brandyl. We had the salmon and the NY strip. Salmon was extremely salty and overcooked. Steak was decent but certainly not worth the money. On a positive note, the service was good and byob is a plus.

    Shocked to see the three star reviews for this place. Stopped in last night and can happily say, this is my new go to local spot. I'm actually surprised I haven't been here yet. To start, I love that this place is BYOB. There is a liquor store in walking distance from it as well. Staff was super friendly and thorough in explaining the menu and providing recommendations. Kept checking in and making sure everything was okay. We decided to grab the prefixed menus. My boyfriend and I shared the appetizers. We got potstickers and Cesar salad. Both were amazing. The salad had a good garlic kick to it and the pot stickers were filled with flavor. We then shared the two entrees. We got the lazy lobster and the Thai shrimp. Holy cow. They were delicious!! I think the Thai shrimp will be a definite reorder for me. It was so dang good! The pineapple pared so well with the shrimp and purple rice. Lobster was very good too. Lastly, dessert. I'm a big sweets girl. We got the apple tart and the chocolate brownie. The apple tart was very good. Came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The chocolate brownie also had a vanilla scoop. I was so excited for the brownie, as they are my favorite - sadly it was a little too rich and sweet for me. But aside from that, everything else was perfect. The menu is designed very cute. The cups on the table are very unique and the interior and outdoor seating is very tastefully designed. Loved it and will be back!

    Disappointed. We made a reservation for Saturday evening during restaurant week. I knew it would be a little crazy so I didn't mind waiting a bit but it was almost 25 minutes past our reservation time before we were seated. There were 4 groups ahead of us and they were still taking reservations for that time slot...? It looked like there were only 2 waiters for the entire restaurant and a few food runners/bus people. They definitely needed more people on staff for a night like that. Our apps came and we had no major complaints - escargot and wedge salad. Plates sat for a while. Entrees came out and our old plates were still there. They mixed up our steaks and we didn't realize until the end that we had each other's (I prefer rare while my wife has medium rare). Oh well. Plates then sat for another 15 or so minutes. Dessert came, which was probably the best part of the meal - chocolate donuts and apple strudel. Would go back just for those again. Overall the food wasn't bad, and the waiter was very nice but it was the lack of service that killed me. It was just too busy for them to keep up. If I had been paying full menu prices for my meal, I'd be pissed off.

    Cavé Bistro - Grass-Fed Beef-Roasted Marrow Burger

    I've been here twice, and they have some seriously good food here. I saw them initially on an…read moreepisode of "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives," strangely enough. Cavé serves organic, gluten-free, wholesome food without seed oils. Great for anyone who is health-conscious but also wants to eat well. My favorite dish that I've gotten here was the short rib. Tender and soft, it was served with a thick gravy that went very well with the potatoes. I'm excited to come back and eat more.

    Visited Cave Bistro off the recommendation of a friend, and also DDD (iykyk)…read more I've frequented many DDD Restaurant's in the past, and they always seem to be very crowded. So just to be safe, I did make a reservation right when the restaurant opened. Seems to say I played it a bit too safe, I was the only one i there for the first 20-min.! In any case, then dining area was very bright and open, and I was seated near the window, which I enjoyed. I tried three foods, appetizer-entree-dessert, here's the breakdown: 1) Appetizer: Pan Roasted Achiote Octopus ($22) which has Shaved Pickled Carrots & Onions, Chermoula. For 1 person, this was quite substantial and a delicious start to the meal. The octopus wasn't tough, it was cooked perfectly, with a nice char-grilled flavour. Paired up with the accoutrements, it was a 10/10 way to begin my meal! 2) Entree: Grass-Fed Beef-Roasted Marrow Burger ($26) which has Raclette Cheese, Caramelized Onion-Tomato Jam, Fresh Baked Gluten Free Brioche Bun, & Beef Tallow Fries. Why 4-stars? Because of this item. The day I arrived the restaurant was trying their new "Baked Gluten-Free Brioche" on me, apparently I was one of the first --- the bread was dry AF, lol! I loved the burger --- the marrow taste, the raclette cheese --- I sing their praises, but wrong day to test out the "test bread"! It ended up on a Yelp Review. Hopefully the bread-recipe has been improved on after this review. PS: The onion-tomato jam perfectly pairs with the richness of the marrow burger. 3) Lastly, I ordered for dessert the bread pudding. They don't put their desserts on the menu, but if you ask the server they will let you know what the restaurant has for the day. I believe it's seasonal as well. It was average at best, good ---- but didn't stand-out. Overall, I'd totally recommend a stop-by if you're in the area! It's always awesome visiting these sites features on DDD, and tasting for yourself the hype behind their food!

This place is located on the corner and parking appears to be street parking only. I stopped by around 11:30 and was able to be seated immediately. They have bar seating which is first come first serve as well as tables throughout. Bar seating was much quicker. After about 5 mins my waitress came and took my order. Challah French Toast, Homefries and Bacon. 15/20 minutes go by and my food came. The Homefries are a good portion. They are seasoned well. The bacon was warm and crispy as well. The challah French toast was delicious. I enjoyed my meal overall. Overall this is a good place that met my expectations. The food was as expected and the portion size was good as well. They do charge a fee for using your card as shown on my receipt. A tad bit tacky to me but I understand.

Granted it is a bar tavern leaning on sports bar. I can't judge on its earlier days, but it appears the exterior has been updated. It's a typical bar with large screen monitors showing NFL on a Sunday. Walked in around 645. Most folks were around the bar watching the games , and maybe half of the tables at most were occupied so was seated right away. Based on reviews we came for steak options. We were not disappointed in the least bit. Granted they forgot to bring out the salads, as our food arrived 20-30 minutes after ordering. Started to think this is not good with waiting and not seeing much food being brought out. When our plates came we were impressed with portion sizes and food looked real tasty. Very nice presentation for a tavern. Ribs and wings combo was very good. Wings were perfect for Buffalo style. An option for hotter flavor would be make them shine even more. Rib eye steak was was cooked perfectly but a bit light on flavor. Servers were attentive except for the missing salads. We had no room for desserts whatsoever and ended up taking home much of the meal. Really surprised by this place. Well done "Patrick"!

We grabbed our takeout and took it home. Upon opening each item, I grew more and more concerned with how it looked. Everything we was either overcooked or dried out. The pulled pork was stringy and dried out and lacked taste. Thank goodness they gave us some sort of vinegar sauce to put on it to resurrect it a tiny bit. The ribs were also dry. There was no helping that. The mac & cheese seemed like they made a roux, let it sit there and dry out, then added mushy pasta to it. It also didn't even have a cheesy flavor. Got the green beans, definitely skip those. It's basically steamed green beans with paprika sprinkled on it. The cornbread was decent. I'll give them that. The one thing I will say that was good were the sweet potato fries. Somehow, those made it through OK. The food just lacks heart and soul, and doesn't really excite barbecue enthusiast. It's not even good for just regular food. I really wish whoever the management or owner is would take a moment to sample all of the food and see how it can be approved, we really could use you in the area. So sorry to be so harsh, but it is what it is and twice in a row it was like this for me.
