I made the BRILLIANT mistake of not checking the reviews first before I went here for our anniversary. We are huge MCC fans so this was a given that we'd try it out sometime. The food is amazing, and I know my food. I have also been here for my birthday, so we have ordered pretty much everything. From the apps, to the desserts, the wine list and everything in between, we love every bit of it. It's gourmet at it's best, for north of the 401:) . And the decor is rustic yet elegant, very nice, a little too dark at night (can barely see my dinner) but still beautiful. However, there are some pitfalls granted that if you go as a couple, you're bound to spend at least $100 if not more, on the bill. The washrooms are deplorable. Smells like a toilet exploded. Maybe that's why they are downstairs. Oh, and the wait staff said the reason they charge for hot water and lemon is because the owner, Mr. Aprile himself, was annoyed patrons would come and order just that.. HW&L. Granted, it's pretty cheeky to come to a nice restaurant and order just that because you are at a business lunch and don' t have time to eat. But for the rest of us who spend good coin, it's not really fair. Mr. Aprile's counterpart, Mr Oliver B, whose restaurant is across the street, has terrible food (think Pickle Barrel) which is very surprising given he too is a MCC judge, but that's a different review...
