  • We dined at Canoe this past week. I agree with Talal's review in that the dishes are a hit or miss and I would not recommend to a foodie either. The view is FANTASTIC! We had a window table facing south and I watched the planes land at porter as we ate. I probably should have been watching my husband but when do you get a view like this again? lol If you are looking for a romantic dinner this is definitely not the place you come to even though its ranked as one of the best restaurants. The room is open, the tables are fairly close together and there is hustling and bustling all around you. Our waiter was fantastic! Very attentive, pleasant, and answered every question I posed. When he couldn't answer one of my questions he called someone over immediately who could. We started with the raw bar appetizer. The platter looks large and intimidating but its not as much as it looks. The ceviche on the platter was incredible! We were not told by the waitress who described the items that one of the sauces for the oysters was a hot sauce. As I have learned my lesson this was before I sampled the sauces first. Just dipping my fork into the hot sauce burned my mouth. That's something that should be explained to diners. The shrimp had a white cream sauce on them, whatever it was it was bland. There were also 3 or so "fish ball" items. They were dry for my taste but tasty nonetheless. Overall I would say the platter is worth it. My husband ordered the wagyu beef as the main. We both agreed that the smoked tongue on the dish was AMAZING! One of the best things I've ever eaten. The beef however had the same flavour and consistency of any filet we have ever eaten. I'm not sure what wagyu should taste and feel like but we were not impressed. I ordered the lamb. i was told by my waiter that it would be served medium rare unless otherwise instructed. That was perfect for me. It came well done. Not impressed. We both did agree that the vegetables and potatoes that accompanied the mains were incredible. I could have eaten a whole plate of the side veggies that came with my lamb. In fact if I ever dine there again I would not order an meat. We finished off our meal with the chocolate fois gras. I was worried it would be too sweet as an appetizer, and hey, I can eat fois gras anytime anywhere. The fois gras itself is the best I've had outside of France. The dish as a whole though did not work for me. Fois gras just doesn't go with waffle. Overall the service and view was excellent but when I pay $450 for a meal I expect medium rare to be medium rare. For that reason i would not return unless I was trying to impress someone.
