I had high hopes for this place.
I went in when they were having their soft opening because it was so busy and there was such hype surrounding it.
I really wanted the Yorkshire pudding appetizer. I was told it was spoiled and they couldn't serve it so I ordered another appetizer. The waitress said she would comp me as the one I wanted wasn't available. She forgot.
My dinner companion and I were not overly impressed with the meal. Small portions for a high price.
I tried it again a couple more times and both meals were mediocre.
The staff/service was very good but I have noticed a high turnover which usually means there is a management problem.
I know that this is one of those places that withhold a percentage of tips to pay out the dishwasher, etc. I've never agreed with this. Wait staff don't necessarily make a lot of money so why would an owner take a cut of their tips. I really find this reprehensible. Just pay your staff more don't steal from them. I'll be glad when this is finally illegal, in this province.
I have watched the crowds slowly shrink at Skwish. That speaks volumes.
