Horrendous Food! Lacks any quality or innovation and is atrociously overpriced.
My boyfriend and I were in town for the Grand Prix weekend and decided to find a restaurant on Peel Street to enjoy our last evening. The restaurant was pretty empty which should have been our first indicator as an empty restaurant on Peel St during Grand Prix weekend is unlikely. We ordered wine, shrimp cocktail ($23.00) and fried calamari to start. The appetizers came out and we were horrified. The shrimp was completely yellow/grey - obviously not fresh and the martini serving glass had cocktail sauce with a comical mountain of arugula over top. The shrimp smelled awful and were chewy with a concerning overly fishy taste. The presentation with very 80's and laughable for the price. The shrimp were so tiny and not even remotely worth the $23.00 price tag. The calamari were obviously frozen and from a bag. The squid looked like onion rings and were very chewy.
After the appetizers we immediately paid our bill and went directly next door to the sushi restaurant called RYU which was absolutely incredible!
I cannot believe that they're getting away with serving such grotesque food. It's such a shame because the location is great and with a more educated owner and qualified chef this place could be great. This owner needs a sincere wake up call. DO BETTER.
