Went here for summerlicious 2016. We got there a little early. We were the first people there for dinner service that day and the student were just getting ready for dinner that night. The hostess was very friendly and welcoming. We were seated right away and shortly after that we were greeted by our waiter. We ordered their signature water ("Q Water") and took some time to decide on our drink order. I ordered a pineapple mimosa.
After the drinks the waiter brought us some bread. Oh my god! This bread was so good! I usually pass on the bread but I was so glad that I didn't this time. Because we enjoyed the bread so much our waiter was nice enough to bring us another basket of this deliciousness.
Next came the appetizers. My husband got the chilled leek and potato soup with smoked trout and I got the asparagus salad. Both were excellent.
For the mains he got the pork chop with peach compote and vegetable succotash. I got the chicken with salad nicoise. Both the pork and the chicken were moist and juicy and cooked to perfection.
For desert we got the dark chocolate cake and the citrus semifreddo. Both were delicious but the chocolate cake stood out more in terms of flavor combinations.
This whole restaurant is run by students from a number of programs at George Brown with the supervision of a head chef and one other staff member. This is great because it provides them with hands on experience. We were told that the students don't get paid instead they get credits towards the program. All in all this was an excellent meal with great hospitality in a great ambiance. I would definitely return.
