Great disappointment ! What a mess from service, to food, to waiting staffs running around juggling to Tables for various parties. For a $350 meal, we had practically no service, empty water glasses, over cooked steak (asked for rare and was served a well done)!
Disclaimer: We went to this ADP during the Winterlicious, but not to taste the Winterlicious menu. We ordered the full menu with drinks and wine!! But was served a meal that we could have eaten at Earls.
Lesson for Auberge Du Pommier: If you don't have the ability to do Winterlicious, DON'T! You are attracing the wrong demographics, and are clearly showing the incompetency of your management team.
I am a foodie, and after hearing so much hype about this place, we ventured my way out of Toronto downown to have a taste of Auberge Du Pommier.
Nothing that I ordered was memorable except the over cooked steak and chaos in the restaurant. Our section had one waiter that serves about 20 people! The restaurant is so understaffed, everyone was running around. Not a pleasant sight!
I usually give a restaruant three times to redeem itself befor I completely write it off my list. However, I am so disappointed with this restaurant, I don't even think I can return to ADP. For the same price tag, I will stick to my usualy dining spots at Splendido and Scaramouche! Maybe Auberge Du Pommier and learn from the other pros on how to properly manage their food and service.
