    Very pleasantly surprised. Tasty shrimp salad with a refined salad dressing, in just the right amount. Fantastic french fries, home made and wonderful smoked salmon. Decor is charming. Only downside, the chairs are not comfortable and should be improved to match the overall great quality of this restaurant. I will come again.

    We had the most spectacular dinner service here, and will definitely be back! Our reservation was at 5PM and the dining room was quiet and intimate. Our server, Amin, was hands down one of the best we've ever had the pleasure of having - ever! His recommendations for meal options & cocktails were spot on, he was extremely friendly and professional, and was constantly checking in on us. Our cups were never empty and we left with even fuller tummies! Koodos to the chefs as well for the amazing lamb dishes, so flavorful and cooked to perfection. It was the best lamb chops I've ever had - perfectly tender and seasoned. Also recommend their cavatelli dish, it was so tender and perfectly all dente, bursting with savory flavours.
