"I would categorize this one as straightforward comfort food done well.\n\nWhile visiting Toronto, we received a recommendation to try out the Cantine Bar & Grill for dinner. We had a large party that consisted of half adults and half kids. They sat us toward the back of the restaurant (near the kitchen) so we saw a lot of traffic go by. Our service was great, our drink orders were promptly taken, followed by our etnree orders. I appreciated how the kids were treated (ages 13 down to 10 months) when the orders were taken.\n\nThe orders included the curry, chicken, ribs, pasta among the table. It was competently made and well presented. I ordered the half-chicken and it was made well, not dried out but juicy while the sauce had great flavor.\n\nThe dessert menu was also pretty good, with a chocolate torte standing out in the crowd.\n\nWhile it was not haute cuisine, it served exactly the profile we were looking for: good neighborhood place to dine."^^ .
