| - Sucks to hear people had bad experiences. This is my 4th visit to this location and it hasn't changed much. My fiancé and I were greeted politely at the door and asked if we wanted be seated at the bar or dining area. She said if we chose the dining area, it would be approximately 20 mins wait. We only waited for 10 minutes and we got our table!
I wasn't expecting greatness here, so I didn't have high hopes of good service and super quality food. Lo and behold, their service was spectacular. All the staff were extremely friendly and very polite - that definitely deserves 2 stars! This also fits my moto: the food is only as good as the service. If service under par, then that just makes the food that much less tasteful!
To start off, the lady ordered a Somersby White sangria. I'm not the fruity type of drink kind of guy, but this was pretty darn good!
The food took a while to come (least 20 minutes wait). The fiancé ordered the seafood cajun pasta and I had the 10oz striploin steak. The pasta was dazzled with cajun spice and tasted wonderful. It had decent sized shrimps, mussels, salmon and thin cuts of chicken. Flavour was good, though it was a little too oily at the bottom. It could've been the salmon or spice oils.. I told her it was the salmon oil, so she won't feel bad eating it lol
I wanted something good to treat myself after a long day of work. It came very hot, which I love! It had fries, zucchini and peppers on the side. I asked for medium rare, but I thought it came as medium. I didn't ask them to make me another one as we were in a rush to go to another venue. The first bite of the steak was good, very juicy, tender and fresh. As I cut closer to the middle, the meat got tougher and not what I was expecting. Two strikes for my meal alone.. The saving Grace came in the form of the fries.. It was so hot, fresh and crunchy.. My goodness, I think I can go back just for the fries!
I mentioned the service being superb and that's no lie. I didn't, however, mention it was slow. I had to ask for the bill twice, paid but had to wait for them to collect the money. Then waited for her to come back with my change.. Just getting the bill alone was almost 10 minutes.
The meal came out to be $64ish, which I thought was a little over priced for what we ordered.. Especially all my complaints about the steak. I think I would've had a better experience at The Keg, granted I paid $10 more (which I won't mind!). There won't be a next time..
Unless it's Wednesday $50 date night! :D
