| - FOOD: 3/5 - Not entirely sure why other reviewers said their steaks were great. They really weren't that great of a quality meat and you could really tell the difference by its texture. They were quite tough and chewy, almost like chewing on bubble gum. However, I did enjoyed their sauce, without the sauce, I'd find it very hard to consume. I tried the peppercorn steak in rare and the steak with spinach, tomato and saffron sauce in medium rare. Although, the steaks were cooked to our desire doneness but the rare peppercorn steak was actually chewier than the saffron steak and I couldn't finish it. I upgraded the fries to the Saffron poutine (for $3.99 more) and I loved it. The sauce and melted cheese were a great combo, I actually like it better than gravy since gravy tends to be salty.
With their dinner special, the entree comes with an appetizer, soup or cheesecake and a piece of Italian sausage for $27.99. Value-wise, it's great since the portion is large and filling. Quality-wise, you really get what you paid for. If you really want a quality steak, I'd recommend to go elsewhere. There's a reason why a piece of steak with so many sides cost less than $30.
SERVICE: 4/5 - Very friendly, attentive, accommodating and cheerful. Although, our server forgot to mention to us there was a dinner special in the beginning, but he offered to make the adjustment for us later on after he told us about it.
ENVIRONMENT: 3.5/5 - Contemporary family-style type setting with booths for smaller parties and tables for larger group. Great place for conversation. We went on a Friday and saw groups of people carrying their worships in the corner of the restaurant.
