  • What a disappointment! I've always wanted to try this restaurant - it has a huge patio that's right in the centre of The Distillery District and it's always packed, so I figured that it must be good, right? Wrong. I jumped on the Groupon deal when it came up (I paid $100 for 4 people, we each had a three-course meal) and thank goodness for that! The dishes (taste, quality, presentation) was definitely not worth the prices that they were charging on the menu. We started off with the antipasti dish - Costatine di bisonte ($20) braised bison short ribs served on savoy cabbage with an Amarone reduction. All that was on the plate was one piece of rib that my husband and I had to share. Next was the pasta - pappardelle ai porcini ($26) egg ribbon pasta tossed in a white wine garlic butter sauce, porcini mushroom garnished with freshly grated pecorino chesse. While we did share this dish, they did put each portion in a separate plate. The pasta tasted great (fresh and was likely made in the restaurant), and the fresh parmesan was a nice touch. Lastly, it was the main dish. I ordered the polipo alla griglia ($36) twice cooked octopus on a sautéed rapini and topped with salsa verde, while my husband ordered the bistecca di manzo all'espresso ($44) a 10oz "AAA" Alberta beef striploin served on a bed of Lyonnaise potatoes with an espresso and red wine reduction. The octopus was bland (I've had better at dim sum), the salsa verde was a green pile of mush, and the rapini was overcooked. The striploin was definitely not worth $44 (if I had to pay the regular price). All-in-all, I would NEVER GO BACK! If you're in the Distillery District and are looking for some good grub, it's better to head over to the Mill Street Brew Pub or Pure Spirits Oyster House.
