| - One of the best places I've eaten at in Toronto! Great service (friendly, helpful, and not pushy), delicious food that is unique and can't be found at a lot of other places, and reasonable prices. I'd definitely come back here again and recommend it to anyone in town.
They do a fixed menu on Monday nights for $35, which is a great deal -- unfortunately, I missed it this time around but hope to come back here on a Monday to take advantage of it. I came here on a Tuesday around 8 pm and it was not super busy.
The decor is nice inside - lots of wood, small, and intimate. Dimly lit, but not too dark, and it's not too loud inside which makes it a great place for a date. The service was excellent - they were very attentive with refilling our water, they were friendly and great with recommendations for dishes.
I was glad my coworker and I shared an appetizer and 2 entrees, because everything looked so delicious - I wanted to try everything. They start you out with complimentary savory mini muffins that are almost like a little cornbread muffin, with herbs, and smoked provolone & onion. I couldn't really taste the provolone or the onion too much, but it was a nice way to start off the meal.
Bangkok Bowl ($24) - This comes with thinly sliced pieces of yellow fin tuna, fried squid on the very top, all served over a mango jicama slaw. This was light, healthy, and flavorful. If I had only ordered just this for dinner, I probably would have still been hungry, but it was a perfect balance to all the other heavier dishes that we ordered. I'd reorder this, and recommend it.
Truffle Gnudi ($19) - Had at least 3 different kinds of mushrooms and gnudi is like gnocchi, but made with ricotta so it's extra fluffy and pillowy. Also, anything with truffle oil is delicious, so if you like mushrooms and/or truffles, you will like this dish. I recommend sharing between 2 people, as it's probably not enough for a full entree and it's rather rich. I'd reorder this, and definitely recommend it.
Burger ($17) - This was a Korean fusion burger, with provolone, gochujang aioli, and beansprout kimchi. It was a bit on the small side (I almost mistook it for a slightly bigger slider bu maybe I'm just used to larger, American-sized burgers). It was good, definitely unique and interesting, but not necessarily mind-blowing. The bun was also good - no cheap, white bread here, but it had a hint of egg / was a little brioche-like. I don't think I would order this again - was a good spin on an Asian-fusion burger, but I think I prefer my Korean food separate from my burgers. This came with a side of taro chips.
Overall, I really loved this place; it was delicious, had a variety of dishes (healthy, not-so-healthy), and at not-so-exorbitant prices. Looking forward to coming back here on another visit to Toronto!
