| - I've been here several times now and I love the food. I usually love the service too. This last time was a little bit less than the typical quality, although nothing was really terrible- just a few glitches. First of all, the hostess cancelled my reservation since I decided to sit at the bar instead of a table (I like to get my open table points!) I asked her to un-cancel it, which she did, so I appreciated that.
Second, there were three beers on tap, none of which I was familiar with. I asked the bartender about them. One was a peche sour. Ix-nay on that. I don't like sours. Next one was "I think maybe an IPA, but I'm not sure?" (That was the bartender's answer). He tried to figure it out and ended up just telling me "I really don't know." So I went with the third one, an ale, which he wasn't quite sure about either. It tasted like Bud Light or some other crappy beer. I didn't like it. He didn't check back to see, so I drank just half of it and left the rest. I kinda shrugged it off and just enjoyed the food and ice water.
Third thing: they no longer have a happy hour menu, although it is widely advertised on the website. I had my heart set on several items and I was there at a weird hour, when there were physically about 5 other people total in the whole restaurant. So that was mildly disappointing too.
I liked what I did have: poutine (they don't call it that, but they were fries covered in gravy and cheese curds) and the wings, which were pretty flavorful.
Other times I've been here, I've been blown away. So this is really less than a 4 with this last visit, but rounded it up, based on my previous visits of the stellar service and delectable food.
