| - This is kind of an update of this restaurant. We used to go here a lot and it has been one of our favourite restaurants in the general area. I think they changed chef's atleast 2-3 times since we last went here and while I don't fully blame anyone for the this review, I will just say in this review what OUR experience was like. It's kind of disconcerning that this used to be one of our favourite restaurants and now it's just a pass for us. In the past month we've come here for 2 times now and those 2 times have changed our opinion of this place.
Firstly, the second time we there, there was a party at their private building, so our food came a bit late and we weren't really attended to. If you know that you're going to have a big party come in, they should have had more help with the process. But then again, I don't fully know the extent of the service, they might have been short that week or someone might have called in sick for that day, who knows?
The main reason why this review is actually being written is because of the change in food quality. While the presentation is still good, the taste and quality has gone down. One of our meals here I ordered the Rack of Lamb and my girlfriend ordered the Lamb Spaghetti. My lamb had mushroom risotto on it and it was bombarded with rosemary, to the point where it was really really really overpowering, aside from the rosemary bomb the risotto was heavily salted and unedible, I actually didn't eat it after the first few bites. The Lamb was cooked too much, I ordered Medium Rare and it came to about Medium-Medium Well. My girlfriends spaghetti was also the same, rosemary was a bit heavy, but not like mine, and it looked very dry from the get go, which was weird. We also had the crab cakes for starters, and they were good!
The other time we were here was a bit of a slow day for them, so we were much more attended. I ordered the Filet Mignon and my girlfriend ordered the Mussels. My Filet Mignon was over cooked, again I asked for medium rare and this time they gave me well-done. Which was a shame because the meat was really good, it was just over cooked. My girlfriend had no complaints on the Mussels though, which was a good sign.
Over-all, this place was really a heart break. It was one of our favourite places to visit in Unionville and now has gone down in quality. We might as well eat in the Keg. I still give it a 2 stars because there are still some okay choices on the menu, just bear in mind that you will have to search for them.
