| - Came here for dinner - food was good, nice atmosphere. A solid choice if you're in the downtown core and looking for a place with a casual vibe...and best to go if you're starving, as the portions are huge.
Yes, the space is rather small but not tiny...it's one of those restaurants where the tables are so close together you can hear the conversations next to you.
We had the fried beer cheese app and the beef tartare to start. Highly recommend getting the fried beer cheese! It was gooey inside, crispy on the outside, and came with a honey/dijon dipping sauce. Definitely addictive!
The beef tartare was ok. Nothing bad about it...I just didn't find it to be anything special.
The chicken pot pie had a nice flaky crust, filling was piping hot, and it was huge. Tasty. I recommend.
The mac and cheese with smoked ham was also delicious. The bread crumb topping was nice and crispy, and the saltiness from the ham helped balance out the richness of the dish. Again, the portion was huge but very tasty.
For dessert, we shared the fritters which was a perfect way to end the meal.
The only minor issue we had was with the service. It was quite busy that night, but it was pretty hard to flag down our server...or any server, and placing our orders took a while.
