Surf and turf (filet mignon with prawns): 3.5 stars
Creme brulee: 5 stars
Chocolate torte: 5 stars
Brazilian wings were pretty good. Not sure how to describe the flavour. Very mild spice. A hint of tang. A dozen of small wings. Not bad but kind of wish we got the brisket poutine afterwards lol.
The beef Wellington came highly recommended by our server and I was not disappointed. The puff pastry was soft and fluffy....mmm it was really good. Filet mignon is about 4-5oz but extremely tender. I think all mains come with 2 sides. I got vegetables and fries. Vegetables were pretty good but the fries were looked and tasted stale. They were sort of hard too.
My boyfriend got the surf and turf. Filet mignon was great! He asked for rare but it came to the the table as more of a medium rare. Still really delicious! I'm not a big prawn fan so I wasn't particularly impressed with the prawns.
DESSERTS WERE AMAZING! I loved the creme brulee and the chocolate torte. I wish the caramelized sugar layer was thicker but regardless, the custard was very smooth and creamy. The dark chocolate ganache was very rich in flavour. Thick and smooth. I was most satisfied with the desserts. Wish I could have traded the appetizer for another dessert.
Ambiance: 4.5 stars
Very pretty dark interior. Comfortable booth seats. Pretty lights lining the centre of the dining area. We were here on a Monday evening so it was quiet but I enjoyed the tranquility.
Service: 4 stars
We were one of about 3-4 tables in the restaurant but our food took a long time to get to us. My boyfriend and I aren't usually the type to notice something like this so I'm guessing we waited for a solid 30 mins for our food. Maybe since it's quiet, there only one chef??? Luckily we weren't in a rush so it wasn't much of a nuisance. Our server was great. Good humored and gave good recommendations. He checked up on us at each point of our 3-course meal. Had a wonderful dinner here!
Will definitely come back, especially for the desserts!
