| - I've walked by this resto a million times and I finally decided to give it a try. I had not heard much about it, and it seemed like one of those overpriced, trendy king st w restos.
Well, it is trendy, and a bit overpriced for what you get, but it's not out of line with other restos in the area. Pastas run about $14 - $18, and entrees between $19 - $25. The food was surprisingly good. We had the rigatoni (dubbed the "Chef's Rigatoni"), which is supposed to be the most popular dish there. I had the sea bream, which was grilled well with a nice crispy skin. It was served with some crisp green beans and potato salad - perfect for a warm summer day.
I enjoyed my seat on the patio, though it was a bit too noisy with the surrounding traffic. It also doesn't get too much sun. The patio furniture is a pleasing turquoise and dark brown color scheme, though up close it looks a bit dirty.
The service was just fine. We never felt like we had to wait long for service, but she didn't hover uncomfortably either.
Overall, I would recommend it.
