| - This place has gorgeous decor and beautiful interior. The servers were nice and the ambiance in this place is very nice, and it would be romantic at night.
I came here for brunch the other day, and the menu was your average. They do have a good price for their set brunch menu. I ended up getting the eggs benedict from the regular menu. It was your average eggs benedict with a just right poached egg. The only twist, being Italian, was the tomato focaccia bread instead of the traditional English muffin. It helped add a bit of flavor to the hollandaise sauce, which I thought would have been a bit bland without the flavors from the bread. I really wanted to try their bombolone, unfortunately they didn't have any the day I went.
When the dessert menu came around, I got tempted by their gelato and house made cookies. As I just got back from Italy that week, I really wanted to compare with a Canadian Italian restaurant. I wish I didn't. I chose the strawberry and blueberry gelato, but it ended up being just a sorbet. The house made cookie was just the wafer like cookies you could get at Costco in bulk (even tasted like it). I must say that the portion of the "gelato" scoop was really big; a lot bigger than I thought, but big doesn't mean it tastes good. It just means I feel obligated to have to finish it since I ordered it and it would seem like such a waste to not even eat half of each scoop.
Overall, I would like to go back to try the dinner, but it wouldn't be on top of my list.
