Very tasty food, great service and charming owners. The Borough has easily become our new dine-out spot in the East end.
My husband and I arrived on a snowy Saturday evening, the small restaurant was packed. We couldn't get a table but happily sat at the bar.
We shared the mussels and fries and both got the salad. Husband ordered the trout and I got the roasted beets as my main. Everything was deliciously fresh! My husbands trout was huge. The salad had a smart combination of micro greens, yellow beets and goat cheese - super yummy. The mussels were fantastic! We didn't try the bread and just scooped the broth with a spoon. I'm a devoted beets fan so it's hard to mess that up, and they didn't.
Jason, the owner, came by to check in on us. To say he's obsessed with locally sourced food would be an understatement - it's the mantra of the restaurant and likely the reason behind their success. It's not always easy but it's amazing what grows in Ontario over the winter months.
