Ever since Nordstrom opened in the Eaton Centre, I've had my eye on the third-floor eatery with its booths facing the mall. So when the opportunity arose to grab a bite there on a cold Saturday, I leapt at the chance.
We did indeed get a mall-facing booth and the view is nothing short of hypnotic. But how's the food, you ask? It's pretty darn tasty.
I got the SXSW Sandwich ("blackened chicken, pimento cheese, b & b pickles, radish, butter lettuce, artisan roll, sea salt french fries"): This is quite a tasty little sandwich. The chicken itself might've been just a tad too dry, but the various flavors within certainly compensated (although the "blackened" aspect was a little more subtle than I might've liked). The fries and accompanying lemon aioli were delicious.
The service was top-notch and the place definitely perpetuated the chill vibe afforded by that superb view.
