The beef Wellington was excellent cooked exactly to a medium doneness as requested, which can be difficult to get right. The pastry was nicely prepared, and the overall flavor was delicious and well balanced.

Enjoyed a wonderful 7 course tasting menu with my Canadian friends. We appreciated every single course. Squid ink pasta with sable fish, tender braised lamb and sticky toffee pudding were amongst our favorites.

We had one person in our group with a few allergies and the chef catered to this person in a few of the courses and made sure to make it special.

Marvelous use of ingredients, wonderful presentation, fantastic flavours, very attentive service, and exceptional deployment of the tableside preparation: Crêpes Flambé dessert.

Every dish that came out was excellent, service was impeccable, and the ambience was exactly what you want for a night out with friends. Warm, cozy, with just the right amount of buzz without being too loud to talk.

We sat by the windows which were open so the gentle breeze came in and it was such a vibe. We could see and hear the buzz of the street below while still enjoying the intimacy of the restaurant.
