Had yet another wonderful dinner tonight. The veal risotto is an old favourite, so it was such a treat to see it as today's special. Service was as exceptional as the food. Love this place!!
Dined there last night all three meals were exceptional. Calamari was not your usual rings but pads lightly breaded.. a must to order. Ambiance was warm and friendly so I highly recommend you try this hidden gem.
10/10 come here at least once a week, never disappointed with the food or service here!!

The staff are very kind and helpful, offering suggestions and assisting when favorites are sold out.
Recent reviews highlight the seasonal creative menus and fresh ingredients. Dishes like deep fried mushrooms with chipotle mayo and short ribs with mashed potato and roasted root vegetables are highly recommended. The intimate atmosphere and fantastic service make each visit memorable. Many consider it the best restaurant in Courtice and one of the top in Clarington and Durham.

The mushroom and goat cheese quiche with a green salad is a favorite, and the chicken, bacon club with potato wedges is described as amazing. Their Saturday Brunch, served from 11am to 3pm, features delicious options like the English breakfast platter and pemale eggs benny, along with a variety of coffee specialties such as the vanilla latte.
