| - Really enjoyable experience! I've been wanting to come, and finally snagged a spot (albeit at 9:30pm, but I didn't mind...I'll eat good food at any time of the day/night)!
Their menu is on a large chalkboard, but luckily, I was seated right below it so it was easy to ruminate over what I wanted to pick. You can take a picture for ease of reference too.
Service was really good; the waitresses were very nice and genuinely interested in whether the customer liked the dish or not. Mine checked up frequently, which was a nice touch. I asked mine what her favourite dishes were, and she was very persuasive!
I tried 3 main plates and a beer (none of the appetizers seemed that amazing to me, haha). The chalkboard only had white and red wines (by the bottle) listed, so you have to ask the waitress for cocktails. Not sure if you can get the wines by the glass? It seemed to be only by the bottle.
- Lobster spaghetti $38: a must-have. The spaghetti was still a bit firm, so it had a lot of bite. The sauce is RICH but also light; it tasted very seafood-ey and I asked for bread to soak it up (they don't automatically give you bread). There were 3 pieces of lobster which were tender and delicious. A nice light indulgence!
- Smoked lamb shoulder with beets $37: WOW, super tender!!! There were 2 large pieces, beets, and some greens. The smokiness really added to the flavour of the lamb.
- Horse tournedos $40: I've never tried horse before, so this was a must order for me, as I LOVE to try unique/rare/limited dishes. The horse itself was light-tasting, but still meaty. Although it didn't look huge, the portion was hearty since it's like eating a dense steak! The thick, rich, orangey sauce was savoury and with each bite I tried to get as much of it as possible onto the meat. I would say this is a must order, and I preferred it over the lamb!
In general, the dishes were all made really well, although the presentation could be improved. It would also help if more details of the menu could be provided, such as a listing of the ingredients in each dish; on the chalkboard, only the major components of each dish are listed.
The table next to me ordered the seafood platter, and were praising how fresh and delicious it was. I'll probably try that next time! I was too full for dessert, so that will also be for the next time.
The atmosphere is quite dark but cozy, although it can get quite loud; I had to speak loudly to be heard, but it's definitely a lively environment!
