    Everything was great. We went here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday. We both got steaks and mine was overcooked. They took it back and the chef brought me out a new one quickly. Everything was delicious. Our server's name was Claire and she was very personable and kind. She brought out a little birthday dessert plate at the end. We really enjoyed it!

    Truly a great experience. The staff are extremely well trained, knowledgeable about the menu and very welcoming and friendly. The menu is excellent and you can’t go wrong with anything. They do a particularly good job with seafood appetizers. We had cocktail shrimp, oysters and fried calamari to start, followed by a small filet and Alaskan halibut. Great cocktails and extensive wine list.

    Came here for the second consecutive year to celebrate my birthday tonight. Our second visit was just as delicious and enjoyable as our first. We got the beet salad, halloumi, their flatbread special, bucatini and the walleye. Every single dish had amazing flavour and decent portions. They also gave me a little birthday dessert which was a really nice way to end the meal. The cocktails were also really good-especially “I yam what I yam” was super unique and truly so tasty! Cant wait to come back next year!

    Wonderful first time experience at The Ledger. We went for my husband’s birthday. The food was amazing, and the service unmatched. I am usually not a fan of duck, but their duck breast was tender and not oily. The foie gras accompaniment was also well prepared. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his tuna tartare. He received a surprise birthday gift, a birthday dessert, and the hostess took a polaroid picture for us to take home as well. Will definitely be back.
