Among our group we had steak and frites, boeuf bourgignon and moules mariniere with frites, as well as sticky toffee pudding. Hi fives from all four of us for all of our food (and as we arrived before 6 p.m. following a show at Mirvish, we were able to enjoy a nice bottle of half-priced wine). We had a booth - our favourite way to catch up; the music was pleasant and not intrusive and the noise level was comfortable, allowing us to talk easily. Our waiter provided excellent service with a flair. Definitely going to return.

The price fix dinner is a good deal otherwise the menu is little overpriced.. Creme brulee was great. I guess the price of eating downtown?

The service is outstanding. Our server was just delightful. The food is consistently good too. I've been here a bunch of times over the years and I've never had a bad dish. The boeuf bourgougnon is particularly good. They also have non-alcoholic beer and cocktails that aren't just juice!! The mule with NA gin was very tasty
