| - So this is one of the most highly rated places on Yelp Mississauga... After eating here a few nights ago, I'm not sure I understand why. It wasn't bad, but it also wasn't particularly good.
I ordered the candy house salad (~ $10) with seared ahi tuna (+ $7). The salad sounded fantastic in writing (mixed greens, sugared walnuts, mango, fig, feta, roasted red peppers, maple-pommery vinaigrette) but the actual product was a bit disappointing - instead of the peppery and bitter greens needed to balance out the sweetness of the fruits, it was mostly romaine. The ahi addition was similarly disappointing - $7 for 4 small slices of sesame crusted-not-seared and flabby-not-firm tuna. My friends were equally unimpressed with their choices.
Probably the best part of the experience was the service. Our server was lovely. She was super friendly and proactive, without being overbearing. Watching and hearing the staff interact with each other and with the diners, it seemed like they were genuinely happy to be there.
Considering the food and the service/ambience, it averaged out to an okay experience.
