| - I came here for dinner with a group of 7 tonight. The service was so-so. After being seated, our server did not come for at least 10 minutes. He had little to say about the specials of the night. After taking our drink orders, he disappeared for another 15 minutes. After he returned for the food order, things finally got on track with serving the appies and main course. When we asked for the bill, he happened to be on a break so we had to wait another 10 minutes for our bill. I just feel that for an 18% built-in gratuity, the service really could have been more prompt.
In terms of the food, it was a disappointment. My soup was excellent (wild mushroom and bison). The broth was thick and flavorful, with large chunks of mushroom and bison. I ordered a filet mignon medium rare, thinking that it is impossible to mess up a filet mignon. Well, they proved me wrong. The steak was overcooked and under seasoned. It was chewy rather than melt in your mouth. So disappointing. I ordered dessert (Saskatoon berries cobbler and ice cream), and that was a disappointment too. The dough wasn't fully cooked, so it was still doughy on the inside. The crust had little flavor. I ate the ice cream and left the cobbler.
Overall, I'd say it was a disappointing experience.
