The Foie Gras Parfait was a heavenly mix of melt-in-your-mouth goodness (including cherry jam) that paired wonderfully with the aromatic toasted bread served alongside it. We shared our enthusiasm for these two dishes with the staff, and we were fortunate to have Olga and Cade assist us with additional recommendations that perfectly matched our tastes, even advising us on the order in which to enjoy them. We embraced all their suggestions and couldn’t have been happier with our choices. A highlight of the meal was definitely the Salmon Crudo, which had a perfect blend of flavors with subtle hints of poblano pepper, just as both Olga and Cade suggested. Other delightful recommendations included the garlic prawn skillet and the beef carpaccio, served with a side of pain au lait to soak up the delicious remnants from the garlic prawns and duck pappardelle—such a treat! The restaurant itself has an intimate ambiance, just right for my partner and me, especially since we prefer dining at bar or counter seating wherever we go. We’re already looking forward to returning for the Salmon Crudo and Duck Pappardelle, and to explore more of the menu that we haven’t yet tried. Thank you to the entire staff for your amazing service and for making our anniversary so special, including the surprise drink Cade created for our walk home.

The fish was absolutely delicious, with flavors that pleasantly surprised me. The duck pasta was, without a doubt, the best I've ever tasted; the duck pieces were crispy and practically melted in my mouth. I highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely return for a special occasion. Be sure to make a reservation in advance, as it was very busy even on a Tuesday night.

It was also so refreshing to be to not have to dress to thee nines to enjoy a Michelin star. No foolish jacket and tie rules. The oysters, carpaccio, Iberico pork chop and the mille-feuille were all perfection done. Best chop and mille-feuille i've had in my life. Clearly the pastry was piped fresh, all the puff was crisp and light. There was a dollop of tart raspberry something in it that made it bright. And the carpaccio aioli with the watercress was just the perfect savory bite. The Iberico pork chop and Beed carpaccio were features

We began with the lobster appetizer and zucchini salad — both fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. For mains, we had the tenderloin and striploin steaks, and they were absolutely perfect — cooked exactly to our liking and full of rich, savory flavor. We finished the meal with their banana cake, and it was the perfect ending — moist, not overly sweet, and truly memorable. The service was warm and professional, and the ambiance was elegant yet relaxed. One of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Toronto. Highly recommend!
