  • 2.5 stars for the food, 5 stars for the ambience. That would average 3.75 stars, but I'll round it up to 4 for the elevator attendant who does magic tricks (after we tipped him). This restaurant is good for date or a girl's night out: you can dress up as fancy as you want but the atmosphere is fairly casual. The noise level is average and the tables are spaced out nicely so you can actually have a conversation without screaming at each other. The decor has a beautiful white motif and the terrace has a beachy feel going on. This may sound cliche, but I really did feel like I was at a getaway in the middle of the city. The food that we ordered was off the Summerlicious menu. For appetizers, we got the duo of duck and foie gras terrine as well as the house cured bacon and summer melon salad. They were good if not somewhat standard for a place like this. My boyfriend ordered a strip loin for his main course; he said it was a teensy-weensy bit overcooked but totally passable. It came with a side of sweet potato mash which I would've liked better if it were more of a puree. My own main, the lobster bouillabaisse, was somewhere problematic. The chunks of lobster were more like scraps and the tiny cubes of potatoes were just a little sad. The whole dish lacked effort and tasted like something out of a can. However, we were able to end the meal on a high note because both our desserts, the panna cotta and the lemon cheesecake, were quite tasty. I had two drinks with dinner, the lychee chilli martini and their cosmopolitan. I definitely enjoyed the latter more than the former. The lychee chilli martini tasted like a watery version of the "master cleanse" concoction (which is a mix of water, maple syrup, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper) -- it's a diet thing that my friends and I tried out in high school. So that brought back a lot of bad memories but I still finished it because I'm a trooper. Then I got a cosmo and it was fine and dandy. Even though I was not blown away by the food, I don't feel too discouraged. I do appreciate them putting foie gras on the Summerlicious menu and I know that these menus are not entirely representative of what restaurants have to offer. I will definitely be back again before the summer ends.
