It was underwhelming - we were greeted but the owner who was friendly and it seemed off to a great start but our server ... it felt like he just didn't want to be there. Grumpy/no personality which didn't start the night off well. The atmosphere was a bit plain - half of the restaurant was closed off so it felt very small. The food was ok- nothing special or memorable. This place has a killer location and I feel like it needs a splash of funk and service that's memorable in order for us to return.

Very nice atmosphere, relaxed and inviting but upscale. Great and attentive service, never ran out of water lol... other than this a little over priced for the portion sizes but nothing too far from what's expected of a Toronto meal.Appetizers were wonderful, had the mushroom arancini, polenta fries and pork & ricotta meatballs. The gnocci was mediocre, overcooked and under seasoned, roasted cauliflower was a big portion and very tasty! For dessert had the sticky toffee pudding, not the best (bread part of it, that is) but still tasted good. Would get everything again except for the gnocci.Overall enjoyed this place and would come back to try more menu items and great wine
