  • Came here on a Saturday night and got the tasting menu, while the decor is nice, the dining room is very roomy, it ended up being a very disappointing experience. Be warned, the pacing of the meal is very slow. We were sitting a good 30-40mins between courses. This is the reason why I'm leaving such a bad review. Not sure if it was an off night for them. Another word of warning, portions are quite small. First course was two oysters with different sauces. The oysters came out on a bed of rocks, not sure if the rocks or plate was chilled, but the oysters were about room temperature. Not used to having warm raw oysters... Second course was three sticks of asparagus with fried shallots, pickled onions, tarragon aioli sauce. Not bad, but nothing amazing either. Third was ravioli. It was very light on filling, so you're really eating thick pieces of pasta. These were topped with seeds and heavy cream. Sauce was decent but I feel the flavours were very bland. Seeds were a good idea but could be improved if they were toasted or fried. Fourth is steak tartar with a smoked aioli and chips. Tartar was ok, a little strong on the horseradish. Chips were soggy with oil. Smoked aioli was good, flavourful! Fifth was tuna and steak. You get about a couple of slices of tuna and a slice of steak. I would approximate about 1oz serving of tuna and 1oz of steak. Tuna was good, the red pepper purée it came with was decent. Steak was flavourful but a little tough. But this is so far the best dish of the night. At this point we are now 2.5hrs into a 6 course tasting meal. Final was a "baked Alaska". Ice cream with a brownie on top with a merengue on top. Dish wasn't chilled so some of the ice cream came melted. Over all it was all super sweet. If I wasn't so hungry I would not have risked diabetes by finishing it. Service is meh, there were two servers for the restaurant. And because the kitchen is so far away, they spend a lot of time walking instead of attending to people's needs. They are super friendly and helpful when you do get their attention though. If you do come here, maybe order off the menu and hopefully you will not have a 3hr dining experience where you are contemplating the etiquette of leaving half way though a tasting menu.
