  • My love and I went here last night for Valentines dinner. It was a last minute decision; we didn't make any big plans. However we ere feeling up to going out for dinner and decided to stay fairly close to home - we didn't want to drive downtown Toronto. Some of my family members had eaten here before and highly recommended it. My love and I came here for a quick pit stop once in the summer for a drink so we were unable to judge to menu and service in detail. We order one pre-fixe meal and one regular menu item plus a few cocktails and a bottle of wine. We had to wait about 5-10 mins past or reservation time as they were clearing some tables. So we decided to get a cocktail at the bar. Overall, the service started off a bit shaky. The bartender was slow at taking our order and making the drinks. Before we got our drinks our table was ready. We sat down and were into such to our server but it took him a while to come back for our order. We ended up asking the sever to change one of our cocktails because it tastes as if there was no alcohol in the drink. We ordered the Mule and it was quite good but the gin based drink with blackberries was no good! Our server was nice enough to exchange it. Overall the food came quite promptly following each other. We started off with the beet salad and the butternut squash salad. Both were really good. However for the butternut squash salad, we felt it would be better served on a bed of arugula and not just on its own. We would definitely order both again. For the mains, we had the beef tenderloin and the shrimp pasta. Both were so good!! The temperature of the meals was very good too. Too many times restaurants will bring out the food lukewarm. This was a for sure plus for us. Both Meeks were cooked well and very flavourful. We shared both plates. We choose a bottle of Chilean Sauvignon Blanc and it was excellent as well, not too dry. Lastly, we shared a dessert: a sort of chocolate meringue invention. It was just ok for us. We would have preferred a simple mini cheesecake instead. Alex was our server and although it was slow to begin he turned out being really great. He made our dinner experience comfortable and casual and he was very knowledgeable about the foods etc. he checked up on us regularly to make sure everything was great. We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and are eager to come back some other time. The only reason why they do not get a 5 star rating from us this time is because: our table was not ready at our reservation time, the first round of drinks lacked alcohol and once we were seated the service took a while.
