We had a spectacular evening at French50. Their new menu rivals a high end restaurant with quality to boot. But it’s casual and quant and we enjoyed every bite. The whipped feta was our favorite and I love they have a small wine list, all good bottles. Perfect date night. We will be back as I want to eat more things off the menu! Well done French50.

First time we’ve been to Bar Gigi and would absolutely go back again. It’s a very small restaurant but the ambiance is wonderful. We ordered appetizers as well as larger plates and everything was delicious. Service was top notch. Would highly recommend.

Always love this vin room in the front or upstairs. Near the kitchen a bit brighter not my favourite spot. Service is great and food is good too. They’re able to make a few adjustments for gluten-free for sure which is always great.

We love this place, the service and food are always top notch!! My only complaint about last nights experience would be where our table was located, every time the door would open we would get a cold draft. They maybe need to use a 2 door system to stop this.
