| - Came here for a birthday with my mother and was pleasantly surprised. The decor was warm and inviting, while the server was very friendly.
My mother enjoyed her latte and I liked my Caesar. Just a bit spicy but with a definite alcohol kick to it!
We ordered a daily special baked tuna item as well as lamb chops. The lamp chops were juicy and cooked perfectly medium rare, not tough at all. It was nestled atop a massive bed of mashed potatoes, which were buttery and delicious but I do wish there was some sort of gravy to go with them. There were also some carrots. Always important to get my vegetables in!
Though we originally thought the server told us the special was a tuna steak, when it came it was more like a creamy risotto with mushrooms, nuts, and pieces of tuna. We were originally a bit disappointed because we hadn't listened properly to the server (though apparently, the server thought it was a tuna steak as well) but it ended up being very good. The risotto was al dente and the textural variation with the crunchy nuts, springy mushrooms and meaty tuna.
For dessert, I ordered a tiramisu and to our surprise, the server came out with a chocolate cake that my mother found delicious. It was quite sweet, but very rich in chocolate flavour.
The tiramisu had a distinct coffee taste and had just the right amount of sweetness.
