| - Worst steakhouse I've ever visited. The service was ok (until the end when It felt like a bit of a hostage situation and she asked us to make sure our bills were right because "serving a large group is hard") and that's the reason it's getting 2 stars instead of one. Had the misfortune of trying several of the appetizers: lobster Gorgonzola dip, which, if they were being honest, should be called "mystery protein tomato soup dip". The chicken tacos were...forgettable. The steak bites were pretty decent, but after I got my dinner portion of steak, I realized that they're just the product of raping the actual steaks of the best part. My entree was the sirloin Oscar and I upgraded to the truffle scalloped potatoes (for $3.50 extra). I asked for medium rare and got a blue rare, tough piece of meat that was about the size of my 11 year old's palm. On a giant mostly empty plate, except for the extra thimbleful of yellow, gluey tasteless sauce that they claim is bernaise sauce. The tiny tough steak was topped with 2 really fishy tasting shrimp, next to a sad tomato with some breadcrumbs on it. The scalloped potatoes were so underwhelming that I won't even bother to tell you about them. The wine...oh yes the wine. A bottle of $12 wine that I paid $49 for. Don't even get me started. All in all...just a really expensive, incredibly disappointing, flavourless dinner. Save your money and go get a much better dinner at the Keg, or spend a little bit more and go to La Castile.
