  • I normally try to keep my reviews concise and get down to business with facts without bashing anybody but let me telll youuu.... Ok, so we walk into this French restaurant located at the edge of a little 'AsiaTown so to say' (I don't know if it was Chinese, Korean, etc. Toronto has many little ethnically diverse areas) and someone behind the bar tells us to take a seat anywhere. We gravitate towards the first tables near the window but with it beginning to snow we decided to go towards the back of the restaurant where more of the guests were sitting in hopes of it being warmer. Our waiter approaches us in a very rude demeanor and really paid us no attention. This continues as the food comes out. We had the lobster bisque which was Very Grainy and not all that good. The food comes out and it's 'blah'. The entrees and meal doesn't get much better. We had some veal item with onions on top and a dish with various meats such as pork belly and beans. We finished the meal off with a jack daniel? walnut crepe that was decent. At some point in the meal the waiter decides to speak to us and finds out that we are not Asians from the local area and instead tourists from the states. OOOH BOY, does this spark a 360 from Mark! He talks it up or perhaps it's because we're nearing the end of our meal and he's trying to work up a tip. Sorry to say, but it was a little too late buddy. In Canada, most places present the bill to you by bringing the credit card machine to your table. During our other experiences on the trip, the waiter would leave the machine and turn around for a minute to give you some privacy as you entered your tip amount and what not. Not at this place! You have to walk to the front near the door/register. Mark did not turn around and during the technical difficulty we were having as we paid, Mark made it a point to mention, "In Canada, it is customary to tip 20% minimum." Well geez, now not only are you staring at what I'm pushing but you are trying to trick me into giving you 20% for being a jerk throughout our dinner and changing personalities on us at the last minute. I think not! Not only is this place overpriced, but the food was subpar, and the SERVICE IS EITHER TERRIBLE OR BIPOLAR. I really wanted to like this place due to the ratings and the highlight it was given in our hotel magazine. This was the only bad experience we had on the entire trip to Toronto. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE GO HERE FOR GOOD FOOD OR TO BE TREATED JUSTLY!!! P.S. Soda does not come out in a can, so you assume the restaurant would have free refills. Nope! $2.50/small glass and no mention of no refills on the menu.
