| - Our recent feast here was excellent -- great food, wine, and especially amazing service, which made a huge difference. Our waitress was confident in her recommendations and just all-around cheery on a night that was clearly insanely busy. We had planned to do the Winterlicious menu, but went rogue and started ordering from their regular menu as well. Absolutely no disappointments.
We ordered one of their massive share platters -- the various meats, cheeses, and other offerings on the board were great but the star of the show was the fresh buffala mozzarella with some sort of spicy garnish on top. Was a nice kickoff to the meal, which included beef carpaccio, arancini, and prawn linguine from the Winterlicious menu, and a pizza with some heat to it from the regular menu. Ingredients seemed fresh, and the flavours were bold.
Finally for dessert, our party tried the brownie, which was so decadent I couldn't finish it after our huge meal, even though I really wanted to. On the other end of the dessert spectrum was the refreshing orange polenta cake -- perfectly balanced in its sweetness and lightness.
All in all, we left sated and satisfied. Can't wait to swing by this place again sometime.
