What a view! Great choice for our first lunch in Toronto.
Retro seventies decor. Service was amazing. Attentive. Friendly. Somewhat made up for the disappointing food.
My husband and I ordered from the Summerlicious menu.
Romaine & Endive Salad. Thunder Oak gouda, toasted seeds & roasted tomato vinaigrette. Blah. Bland.
Chilled Summer Sweet Pea Soup. I'm not a fan of cold soup. My husband ordered the pea soup. Wow. It was cool, refreshing, creamy with the minted Hewitt's Dairy buttermilk. The small pieces of dungeness crab added a subtle seafood saltiness.
Tree Syrup Glazed Beef Short Rib. This was horrific. I make braised short rib as my specialty. So I know a good short rib. You should be able to eat it with a spoon...should be that tender and fall of the bone. Not here. I was sweating trying to cut it with a steak knife. I had to send it back and I NEVER send food back. It came back exactly the same. TOUGH.
Strawberry Panna Cotta. Lychee ginger consomme & basil. Light. Just the right amount of sweetness. Loved.
Perhaps, it's the Summerlicious menu that needs work.
