| - Went here for my boyfriend's birthday this past weekend.
Here is what we ordered:
Snacks:
Deviled Eggs (very good, the crispy panchetta was probably the best part of it, but overall, for what you can do with a deviled egg, it was nicely presented)
Corn on the Cob (meh, would skip with one next time, not worth the 7 bucks for 1 cob)
Raw
1/2 dozen Malpeque Oysters (Garnished really nicely, but I found one to be super gritty)
Tuna Salad (So nicely presented we didn't want to dig into it, but very tasty, great mix of flavours with the tuna sashimi, sweetness of the Asian pears, along with avocado and cucumbers)
Mozzarella Bar
Burrata with marinated red peppers, pesto on a crusty baguette (probably our favourite dish, the burrata was super creamy)
Hot
Curried Shrimp with Naan Bread (this was the only hot dish we ordered tonight and it was good, curry wasn't too strong, and the dish contained chicks peas and other spice, with 4 pieces of shrimp).
Dessert
Dulce le leche+pressed yogurt+crumbled frozen raspberries (Great dessert, the tartness of the frozen raspberry crumbles went amazingly well with the sweetness of the caramel creme, and right when you get to the very bottom of the dessert, there's a tiny layer of thick creamy Greek yogurt)
Overall, both the boyfriend and I enjoyed our meal, however, the place is very loud, and doesn't really have much of a romantic/relaxed atmosphere. A tad on the pricy side, but a lot of the dishes are quite unique and visually appealing. Taste wise, some were a hit and some were a miss. Would def. recommend the Tuna Salad, Burrata, and Dulce le leche for dessert.
one odd thing, not a bad thing, bu our waiter advised us stronger to NOT get the Crispy Calamari... although we saw plate after plate of it coming out of the open kitchen.
