| - We were looking for a lunch spot around the 17th Ave area, and after reading some reviews, decided to check out this restaurant for local seasonal cuisine. Expectations were high since Market was named best restaurant in 2015, 2016 and third best in 2017!
Atmosphere: 4/5 It was a really hot day, so it was great to finally get indoors! It was not too busy in the restaurant and had a nice, casual relaxed feel. I like the decor including the chalkboard drawings and black on white. Market also has a nice patio but it was too sunny and hot that day to enjoy.
Food: 3.5/5 Since it was a weekend, we had the brunch menu available. I ended up getting the Market breakfast with sausages, bacon, 2 eggs, 2 pancakes, curd tots and fruit. It was quite a bit of food! The tots were good; otherwise I thought the remainder of the meal was as expected for breakfast and did not quite live up to the hype. I would've also enjoyed something a little less oily or deep fried.
Service: 4/5 Very attentive server and friendly
Price: 3/5 Slightly high for the amount and type of food
Overall: 3.5/5 Overall, I had higher expectations for this restaurant since it had won so many awards! I enjoyed my breakfast in this casual atmosphere, but maybe was expecting something a little more unique to the restaurant... perhaps I would pick something more specific to the restaurant next time. The price was also higher than expected. Otherwise, good service and at least interesting to try for a quick brunch!
