We had a lovely brunch meal. It was 6 of us and my husband and I had the short rib poutine, delicious 🤤 . The others had the duck confit benedicts and salmon benedicts. Everyone loved their meal. Service was great and the location is a beautiful old stile building. I will try to take pictures of the food and location next time. We’ll be back soon!

The best London Fog and Avocado Toast ever!! Love the addition of feta, fresh tomatoes and dill on beautiful crispy toasted bread! 😄❤️

Great service. Waitress named Cindy was amazing and very knowledgeable. We had shrimp and pork bellies which I loved. The lamb was cooked perfectly. Highly recommend to anyone who wishes to dine in the Edmonton area and feel like they are on a Gordon Ramsey reality show.

We enjoyed this evening out, the food was excellent and the service was great! We had not been to this restaurant in few years and we are really glad we chose it. Excellent food! The value was amazing as they had a special menu for seniors ( we were not expecting this) The portion size was smaller but very good for our group! We ordered an appetizer to increase the protein and a nice bottle of wine. We will definitely return and really enjoyed the evening.

The food was good. Our favourite was all the appetizers. Our waitress was as so tentative and checked on us often. Overall our dining experience was perfect for an girls night out.

My husband and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. The bison carpaccio was amazing! They accommodated my gluten sensitivity with gf toast. My husband enjoyed the tomato bisque as an appetizer. I had the 7 oz bison steak with mushrooms. And the gravy was gluten free and delectable! The mushrooms were whole oyster which are my favourite. My husband enjoyed his lamb meal. We've been for past anniversaries and Valentine's Day meals and we'll definitely be back for more. The desert plate was decorated with a message of Happy Anniversary.

Went for the new years dinner. Food was excellent. Very tasty, always hot coming out of the kitchen. Waiter , ( brown haired women) was extremely friendly and easy to deal with. We where the last to leave and they where patient . Great for a date night!

Our waitress, Sindy, was wonderful, and our seating quite comfortable. Our meals were really delicious and our dessert was made special with a « Happy Birthday » message done in chocolate for one of our table guests. At one point, we asked that the volume of the music be turned down. Otherwise, we would definitely return to this restaurant for special occasions. (Not regularly, as it a very pricey outing) Thanks!

All the food ordered was well-prepared; excellent dinner. Service was low-key and attentive without being at all over-bearing. Prices might seem high, but we believe we received good value. Would definitely choose this restaurant again?

The food was pretty decent and they were able to accommodate for a gluten allergy, but honestly, from the moment we arrived the service was poor. We walked in and nobody was there to greet us or show us to our seats even though we made a reservation. We ended standing and waiting for a while until the waiter asked if we had been helped. For the whole evening our waitress took quite a bit of time to get to us and it wasn’t busy. This was also for my husbands birthday which I had included on OpenTable but they didn’t ask if we were in for a special occasion or anything. We had to directly ask for the bill because we had to leave to another engagement and they didn’t come back, after 10 minutes of waiting we just got up to pay at the bar. Typically this kind of experience is fine, but for the prices you pay, I would expect better service.

Beautiful Christmas atmosphere. Building, and location excellent. The food and service were great as usual.

1. Quiet, cozy and romantic restaurant. 2. Food is 10 out of 10. We.started with mushroom bruschetta and spicy prawns and back bacon. Then we had the strip loin steak cooked medium. It was juicy, flavorful and cooked to perfection. 3. The quality of food is worth the price. We will be back.
