| - I have noticed mixed reviews for this restaurant but I am happy to say mines was excellent both service and food. I went here for the Winterlicious menu with my friend and the first impression I had was it was very cosy and quaint. We were able to get to seated earlier then our reservation which was a definite plus, we both were quite hungry =P
Tables were fairly close together and at that time the restaurant was fairly busy but noise level was not an issue. We were greeted and offered water, the server was very friendly and came by a few minutes after allowing us to browse the menu. We ordered the following:
Appetizers:
- Noce Salad, romaine hearts, Italian asiago, walnuts, pears, white wine, pommary, mustard dressing
- Mozzarella di buffalo, cherry tomatoes, basil, olive oil
Entrees:
- Oven braised, black angus beef, short ribs, with chipolini onions, mushrooms, mashed potatoes and green beans
- Parpadelle with forest mushrooms, wild forest mushrooms, cream sauce, truffle oil and chives
Desserts:
- Tiramisu
- Chocolate Mousse
We enjoyed our food very much, there was a good combination of flavour in each dish we had. I really liked the dressing in the Noce Salad, it was distinctively different then your typical salad. The parpadelle was excellent, the cream sauce with truffle oil made the dish. The aroma itself was amazing. But the best part of the meal was the tiramisu and I usually am not a fan of desserts however this was amazing. It was very moist, flavourful and the perfect way to end a meal.
I would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.
