We arrived at 10:30 for a breakfast for 4 people, it was not busy at all. Food took 50 mins to arrive and was cold , I figured after such a wait we would at least receive a hot meal . Not impressed for a bill that exceeded $100 for breakfast, we will not be back 😕
Great food and service open 24/7

Terrible food and service! I ordered two butter chicken poutines. Usually they make them really well, but sadly it was made absolutely terribly when I ordered on that day. The portion size was next to nothing, no trace of gravy or chicken either. The worst part is that I left a message to speak with the manager three separate times, and he didn’t even have slightest courtesy to call me back and ask what the matter was. Absolutely terrible service and food. The same day I also mice in their restaurant. This would be the last time I will be dining there, seeing what I saw

absolutely horrendous service (super long wait time when it gets busy), mediocre food (the mozzarella sticks were very salty and the salad was fresh but the dressings were a bit too much..). cute atmosphere though. overall, will never come here if it was not midnight on a sunday when all other kitchens were closed.

We went here for dinner a couple of weeks ago, and we liked it soo much that we went back for breakfast the next morning! I did not like the cod tongues but I think they may be an "acquired taste." I would definitely go back and would recommend to friends.

Wonderful meal again, this is our go to place for dinner out. Waitress was attentive and sweet. Food well way too big of servings, after a starter and a salad we could barely touch our meal. I ordered the lamb shepherds pie and husband had the fish and chips for like the 4th time lol. All tasty, reasonable price for the servings size we have enough leftovers for the weekend.

It was ok, had a couple beers, Cod Tongues, Calamari & split a fish and chips. I wouldn’t advise on the Calamari, it’s more breaded jalapeños, black olives, pineapple and grape tomatoes than it is Calamari. Fish and chips were good including the fries. First time for Cod Tongues, bit chewie though. Draft beer selection was ok, bunch of local beers. Unfortunately our server was rather slow and I had to flag her down for another pint. Don’t think I’d return… and a quick note, having the patio set up in October doesn’t make much sense and is an eyesore for the street scape.

Visited as a tourist. Really liked the atmosphere and loved the service and food. First server was a lovely young woman whose name escapes me (was there Oct. 9/2024, arriving around 1400). She was so pleasant, attentive, and informative. Unfortunately, it was toward the end of her shift however, Carm took over. Both were simply lovely and attentive. As well, the food was exceptional. I bought the seafood pappardelle with pesto to go and my gosh was it good. Despite taking it to go, it was excellent even after the 15 + minute walk back to the hotel. It was generously topped with assorted seafood ranging from scallops, muscles, to tender large shrimps. There was also a side of a cheese covered baguette. In short, I highly recommend this place. Please don’t pass it by. You won’t regret it.

We visited last night. It was busy, as it was a weekend evening and it was supper hour. We were seated quickly by the window. Unfortunately, there were many fruit flies around our table. This became an annoyance and kind of turned me off. We were quickly asked our drink orders and our server was nice. We waited a long time for drinks to arrive. ( 20 mins).
I ordered a pasta dish which arrived very cold and the baugette was off tasting and not fresh at all. The cheese on top was also very cold and not melted. The baguette tasted sour.
My husband had the surf and turf and he enjoyed the scallops and shrimp but it was all covered in a cream sauce and the steak did not seem grilled much - rather broiled or boiled in the sauce or something- unsual looking.
He did eat it but not the best.
My wine ( at $11) tasted old.
I was not at all impressed by this visit. Probably will not return due to flies, poor wine and not great food. The price was $130. Definitely too steep for the quality.
Too bad, as otherwise the atmosphere was ok and our server did her best.
Visiting from Ontario and stopped in here for lunch. I ordered the fish tacos which were delicious. We ordered calamari for the table and they were so good. Loved how the restaurant looked and was happy with our food and service.
