We sat at the bar and loved the atmosphere… service was superb (thank you Nick) and the food delicious
MEC is always fabulous. It’s the kind of place you can count on having stellar food and excellent service every time.
They really make outstanding vegetable dishes. This is one of the only places I don’t have room for meat when I want all of my favorites. The cauliflower dish and the charred carrots are crazy good!
