  • The dishes were hit-and-miss for our group. We got the Canyon Creek Dip ($11) appetizer, which came with a yummy green artichoke dip, and a spicy one which most of us didn't like. The complementary fresh bread with honey butter was comforting and appreciated, but nothing to go nuts over. I got the Mushroom & Caramelized Onion Meatloaf ($18). I chose right, since it was moist, flavourful, and delicious. I enjoyed the mushrooms, onion-ring-like bits on top, and the mashed potatoes. Based on my dish alone, I would give this place 4 stars. But considering my other dinner companions' dishes, I had to take away a star. The Grilled Salmon Salad ($19) was apparently lacklustre. The salmon was cooked too much, and there was nothing special about the greens. While the dressing sounds good in theory, it was barely there on the plate. The combination of the salmon and the salad did not work. It was bland, unfortunately. The 7-oz Certified Angus Beef Top Sirloin Steak ($21) was apparently fine (even for a very picky eater), but nothing to rave about. Lastly, the Roasted Hunter Chicken ($20) failed to impress. Apparently there was a lot of fat on the chicken, and the flavours simply did not work. Blandness, again, was a complaint. The little bit of truffle sauce that was included was delicious, but there was hardly any. In summary, I think I enjoyed my dish the best, despite mine being the least expensive. But everything was too expensive for what it was: There were no harmonious, transcendent flavour combinations. At least there were good flavours, and they worked; I only wish that could have been the case for the rest of my dinner companions. We went at 6 P.M. on a Tuesday, so it was very quiet, and service was extra friendly and quick. I found the light hanging down a bit annoying, shining in my eyes too brightly, but it wasn't too offensive. The rest of the decor was comfortable and nice. There is not a lot of choice in Scarborough, so it's a good choice if you just want something where everyone can find something non-offensive and filling to eat, even when you have picky eaters in your midst. You won't have a culinary life-changing experience here, but you are also unlikely to regret it much. We were too full from the dinner, so didn't get to try desserts. Maybe there will be a next time.
