| - Located near St Andrews TTC station and in the financial district. Canyon creek restaurant is listed as a contemporary steakhouse. Came here on a Wednesday around noon for a Winterlicious lunch. Had to wait in line at the front desk for around 5 minutes. Because the restaurant is below ground level lighting was very dim. The modern decor is a mix between sports bar and lounge.
Upon arriving to our table, each had cutlery, menus, glasses of water and a candle (with real flame). Items on the menu had a mix of western and Asian food which is a surprise. Service was friendly but was slow in getting all our courses. Restaurant looked to be about 80% full. Was hoping to finish lunch within 1 hour but it was 45 minutes longer. They were nice to give us extra bread when asked though it took about 30 minutes to get it and we were finishing up our mains.
Candied Atlantic Salmon served with golden beets, citrus segments, pickled Bermuda onion and tangy horseradish crème fraiche. Was the best dish I tried for this lunch. Each bite had a different yet enjoyable taste. Would highly recommend this dish.
Vietnamese Roast Beef Pho rice noodles in a rich and spicy beef broth with Thai basil, fresh bean sprouts and crispy wonton. Friend said the beef was good but everything else didn't remind her of pho. She still enjoyed it.
Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich crisply coated, topped with buttermilk jicama slaw, cilantro, chipotle mayo and jalapeño. I tried a piece of the chicken and seemed dry but the fries were good.
Peach Crumble juicy peach chunks smothered in cinnamon brown sugar streusel and a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. My friend said this dessert was realy good.
Salted Dark Chocolate Ganache decadent double chocolate with lemon zest, crème fraiche and a soft oatmeal crust. Looked like a chocolate bar but tasted like chocolate mousse. Wasn't too sweet or bitter. Portion size was small.
Carrot Cake made in-house with creamy molasses icing, caramel and candied pineapple. Had a veriety of textures which I liked. The flavours were average. Probably wouldn't get this again.
Some food were better than others. Most items I tasted were average and only item that stood out was the candied Atlantic Salmon. If I had to order my courses again I'd go with Candied Atlantic Salmon, Southern Fried Chicken Sandwich, and Salted Dark Chocolate Ganache. Portion size was ok for lunch. I would be interested in coming back again to try their other dishes.
