Booooring. Good service, typical boutique / tourist destination restaurant pricing (not cheap),…read moremostly small plate servings...but overall a disappointment. We ordered: blue crab hashbrowns (the only standout; would definitely order again, except that I won't likely return), salt roasted beets, brussel sprout caesar, scallops, and duck breast; then we both had creme brûlée and espresso. We tried the three white wines, one was a forgettable Chardonnay and the other two...were equally forgettable, notwithstanding being less common grapes. Only the duck was a main-size serving, and we only chose it because when we ordered there was only one order of scallops remaining (for a 5:30 seating!). I want to say "just as well" because the scallops and sauce were bland so we got to try something else...however the duck was not merely uninteresting but the red pepper sauce didn't complement and contributed nothing. The scallops were priced like a main but only four little guys on the plate, the one upside if we had both chosen them we'd have had room for another order of those crab hashbrowns. The beets were also dull, no idea why the word salt is in the name because it was absent from the dish. No tang to anything except the brussel Caesar. I've seen the brussel sprout restaurant renaissance of the last 10-15 years, this dish is pretty common now. This one was on a par with many others I've had but no improvement, and some might be put off: fully half the outer leaves are charred to the point of becoming a mouthful of ash. Not crispy, just dry ash. I guess that's different...and maybe this is the root of the problem. This restaurant makes a point of changing their menu constantly; not just seasonally, but weekly, even daily. So maybe they're just trying out stuff that pops into the chef's head. With the exception of the crab, every dish seemed to need something to make it interesting or appealing. The espresso was good, but the creme brûlée was another ill conceived concoction, with some kind of raspberry trifle thing on the bottom and the creme was a strange thick porridge-like texture and not quite the typical flavour. Last complaint: their self-description says Elevated Comfort. No. Mundane bistro look and ok seating, but that steep and poorly lit descent to the basement washrooms is the opposite of comfort. Hey, maybe we just picked the wrong items from their evolving experiment of a menu. The people are all nice, the service was good, and none of the food was bad...just meh.

I loved the creative way to serve the sea bass crudo with sugar snap peas and ginger scallion; it was absolutely mouthwatering! Another fantastic appetizer was beef tartare, which was prepared with dandelion, anchovy, and pine nuts. To die for! The half lobster appetizer was another gem, served with lobster mayo, tomato, and basil. My friend loved her warm goat cheese. The star of the main dishes was the cavatelli with sausage ragu, broccolini, and pecorino. Crispy, sharp at moderation, and delicately seasoned! We concluded our epic dinner with an outstanding fraisier cake and 25-year-old tawny port wine! The restaurant offers a carefully chosen wine list to accompany the dinner. Overall, it was a great experience, including the attentive service. I highly recommend this restaurant!

The cosy restaurant has lots of small tables, and some bar seating as well. Our server, Arbra (sp?), took such GREAT care of us. When she came to tell us about the menu, she paused to listen to my particular dietary restrictions and then went to check with the chefs in the kitchen. When she returned, she presented me with the menu showing mark-ups to indicate dishes that are no-go AND which dishes could be adapted just for me. There were still tons of options for me! I've never seen this type of service and flexibility before! I got to enjoy the meal completely worry-free. What we ordered: Cocktails -- Brooklyn, and Dark & Stormy Pig Head Terrine with zucchini relish, toast Salmon Tiradito with sweet corn, aji amarilo, cilantro Cold Roast Lamb with eggplant caponata, mint Hanger Steak with new potato, watercress salad Chocolate & Beet Torte with red wine poached plums and sorbet Everything was absolutely delicious.

For my main I went with the Karaage fried chicken bento box which was a generous portion of chicken with a peanut crunch salad, "scattered" omelette sushi, pork and shrimp gyoza, and a side of miso soup. It was all SO good and SO much food! I was uncomfortably full by the time we finished and packed mine up to go (the chicken made an excellent midnight snack later that night when I had the munchies back at our apartment!) Price point is great, portions are generous, staff was lovely, and the space itself was clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Can't ask for much more! We'll definitely be back!
