| - At first sight, looking from the outside you would have never guessed there was a restaurant like this but once we walked in, we were surprised to see a good amount of people sitting down enjoying themselves. The ambience was great and the semi dark lighting and the cool woodie-brick colors set the mood. The hostesses were kind and greeted us when we walked in. He first apologised for the wait but it was not a problem since we had just literally walked in 2 minutes ago. They couldn't find our names in the reservations but assured us that it might have been a mispell or mistake on the reservation. Anyway, we waited another 2 minutes and finally they seated us in a cozy corner. Daniel the manager came and said hello while explaining the menu as we sat down. She informed us of a great tasting which they highly recommended and we proceeded to look through the menu while waiting for our drinks. Since the place does not serve alcohol, they still recommended 2 excellent beverages which was the virgin pina colada and the raspberry mojito.
What we ordered:
Shareable platter (Mac n cheese bites, 1/2 lb buffalo wings, roadslide sliders, spinach dip, beef bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers)
- This was an excellent selection of shareables for 4 people. I guess if you eat a lot this could also be a good meal all on its own. It was so filling and had a good amount of little bites for tasting. And it was presented very well on a large wooden board. Very rustic and I definitely enjoyed it.
The Meathead platter
- Oh Boy!! When this came out, the presentation was just perfect. It was a beautiful wooden board of different selections of meat cooked just right. I don't think I need to describe this order, its best to present it to you as you read this through the photos. (Please view photos attached which I took of our order). It was massive and for my husband and I, it was very hard to finish that we had to pack it home. Everything was delicious ... but one word of advice, the chicken could use a little bit more flavor. Other then that, it was still very tasty. So thank you for the recommendation.
Dessert - Creme Brulee
- This tasty finishing was just perfect for the end. It had a good balance, though thin of the filling, I think it was the right amount. You don't want american sizes where you over indulge anyway.
Overall, our experience here was excellent. I don't have anything negative to say about this restaurant as everyone was extremely attentive, our server Roula who got us everything we needed and explained every dish was great. She even packed our Cheese cake to-go so my husband and I can enjoy it later this evening as we were too full to finish 2 desserts.
I would come back here again ... since Daniel told us there was a Tomahawk made-to-order on the menu for only $69. It requires a 24hr order in advance since they would need to prepare it. I look forward to bringing my other friends who are bigger foodies then I am to try this place out.
Cheers and thank you!!
