  • Only been here once, on the mentions of Toronto folk and one local acquaintance. I can't say I was initially impressed walking in, the place seems a bit dark and tavern-like and there was a bit of a 'fish smell.' Either the freshness of marine ingredients was not exactly coastal standards or else we're just not used to encountering much cooking with fish in this inland empire we call Ontario. Those who dined with me there were less impressed with the food, which I, having grown up on good home cooking, honestly appreciated as fairly ambitious, original and well-executed. It's like Asian-inflected food that I think all Europeans could enjoy. The fish in curry was memorably tasty. A few other dishes we had were at least very OK - Beef short ribs braised as kind of stew was good, a Mussels appetizer that turned out to be mostly bread was very light. The BBQ pork skewers were particularly great in unanimous opinion. There's some awkwardness in terms of ordering portion sizes and sides & how to divvy and share assorted dishes in a group. The servers might not offer the best calibration in ordering for the table and I think we ordered some 'starches' sides twice but regardless it's perfectly fine to add dishes as you go & have a leisurely meal. The kitchen is reasonably fast and the service is attentive. My group really liked the Jamaican-style Roti but generally expressed only muted enthusiasm for the evening's dining when we parted ways afterwards. I'd gladly go there again with perhaps other company to order another adventuresome spread, and for just a quick bite I'd pull up at the comfy barside seating at the back to enjoy the interesting Ontario craft beer menu alongside a few of the excellent Filipino pork skewers. Nice atmosphere when you get used to it, homey. The menu keeps changing and this may be seasonal. It's a good experience.
