| - I haven't been to a ton of fine dining restaurants, but this is one of the best I've been to.
The location is very quaint, situated on a residential side street, the place inside is elegant and cozy, and the wait staff is as professional and courteous as it gets. The somelier had a lot of recommendations for ordering wine. The wine list was the size of the phone book.
All that said, I was not paying as this was a company dinner, so it would be hard to give an objective view on a free meal.
The portions were on the smaller side as you would expect, but after several courses, including dessert and several glasses of wine, I was stuffed.
For the entree, I had a deer steak, which was much more tender and not as gamey as you might think.
I had no expectations as to what contemporary Canadian might entail, and I still couldn't tell you what the big differences are, but all I can say is that if you want a special dining experience, this is a great place. I would say everything I consumed, app, entree, wine and dessert must have totaled something like $150, to give you an idea of the price range.
It looked like there was an outdoor area in back, but I couldn't say for sure, as it was dark out.
