| - I was very impressed with the incredible food, service and ambiance. I was able to get a last minute reso at the bar, which was intimate without being crowded - a wonderful arrangement for a date night. The owner was the one who seated us; she was super pleasant and immediately made me want to love the restaurant.
The menu is 18th/19th c. Canadian, and while I was reluctant when I first read it, every dish exceeded my expectations. They were all different, delicious and very impressive.
Here's what we ordered:
- Devilled Eggs (5) these were the best devilled eggs I've ever had!
- Mussels (5), and I would get the bread to dip in the sauce. Not to mention that butter...
- Venison (5) - tender perfection!
- Baked Oysters (4.5)
- Pigeon Pie (4.5)
- Foie Gras (4) very heavy, but delicious! I could not eat this alone, though.
+ 2 cocktails and a bottle of wine - both of which were recommended by the bartender, after getting to know our tastes and what we ordered. Again, very impressed with the drinks!
I think this place has done a truly fabulous job! I would highly recommend it, and I will definitely be going back!
