My wife and I were celebrating our anniversary with a meal at CHAR CUT Roast House. We hoped that the positive reviews we had read about would be true.
Their motto is "Evolving Simple Ingredients" which by our account was true. They could add "Most Delicious". Our entire meal; from the beets with goat cheese to the fresh made salami and also the rotisserie chicken were all in the outstanding category.
We had the opportunity to sit at the "chef's table" bar in front of the kitchen. Our opinion of the preparation environment was professional, intelligent and happy. We were very happy to be part of the food preparation arena. Our questions and conversation with all of the team were met with a welcomed passionate response, even in the heat of their work.
We arrived at 5:30 on a Tuesday evening to a moderately busy restaurant and when we left the place was full. We could see that our next visit would require reservations well in advance. The Char Cut was one of the best restaurants we have had the pleasure of eating at and recommend it highly.
Lastly we would like to add that Yvan our host shared the spirit of the kitchen throughout the restaurant. He made us feel special and cared for throughout the evening without being intrusive. Alex, our server was friendly, knowledgeable and flexible in meeting our every request.
We cannot wait till we can return.
P.S. We really appreciated their use of local ingredients.
