In a word: overpriced. One of the first times I went there I had the fish tacos, which unfortunately I didn't realize featured orange roughy, which is a very poor quality seafood for such an "upscale" restaurant. I barely touched my meal, which the server didn't notice or bother to ask about. Another time I had their trout special and it was pretty tasteless, yet cost $25+.
A new item on their menu is their heirloom caprese salad. For $14, you literally get maybe five quarter-inch Bocconcini cheese balls and 10 cherry tomato halves. Ridiculous! This shouldn't even be $10! Also, be careful for hidden charges, if you don't ask they will charge you for any and every change/alteration. I asked for salad instead of fries with a steak and was charged $5 (on top of the $21 for a 5oz. steak), which the server failed to mention.
To be fair, Local's steak and pizzas never disappoint in terms of tastiness and portion size. Their fries are great too.
Bottom line: you have to be a very discerning customer here and ask questions about all items and be prepared to spend $90+ for a modest meal for a couple.
I want to like this place because it's in my neighbourhood, but I just can't accept spending so much money on sub-standard food with such small portions. People in the neighbourhood are better off going to The Wren or Morgans On The Danforth if they want to get their money's worth.
