Came here for a catch - up session with a friend. We had walked up from Davisville station to find a place to eat. This place caught our eye because of the patio and because we didn't feel like going to the Chinese fusion restaurant beside it.
Friendly servers, we were sat and watered almost right away. It was a really hot day and we sat on the patio, so we were really happy to see the water. The server helped us lower the shade so we weren't in direct sunlight but didn't tell us the specials though. I'm (sadly enough) culturally ignorant about white food, so I was disappointed - I could've asked for recommendations, that's true, but meh. The menu covers were really cool - they were hardcover and looked like artsy books.
The inside (before I forget) is really nice - they have simple chandeliers hanging, classy european decor.
My friend and I decided to be healthy and get something from the insalate and antipasti section.
He ordered: DI POLLO - Grilled Chicken on organic greens marinated grilled vegetables tossed in balsamic $14
Said the chicken was very good, moist and well seasoned - vegetables were fresh
I ordered: ANTIPASTO DI CASA Marinated vegetables, smoked salmon, seafood salad, prosciutto, goat cheese, pickled button mushrooms and warm herb focaccia $12.95.
very colourful - with shrimp, squid, salmon, cheese, garlic bread, assorted veggies. I don't recommend getting this dish though - the vinaigrette was too lemony / sour for my liking.
They didn't take debit (we overheard the server tell the people sitting next to us). and they don't do separate bills (but they will do separate payments).
I'll definitely come back to try their pasta (our neighbours had pasta and stuff from the brunch menu).
