    Went for lunch for Valentine's Day with my husband. Had the Chilli garlic shrimp, Wild mushroom and goat cheese dip and the Steak Oscar. Everything was great. The shrimp were very large with just the right amount of heat. The dip was warm and robust with a touch of sweetness from the truffle honey. Our Steak was cooked perfectly and the Béarnaise sauce... just divine. The whole lunch was delicious.

    We have never been disappointed dining at Chartier and last night’s “honey” themed Valentine dinner was no exception. A five course meal … each more delicious than the last! The honey buns and honey glazed carrots … yummy! The salmon bites … a little honey with a zing! It was an experience; an exceptional culinary experience.

    Our waitress, Alexa, was great, very knowledgeable. She was very attentive. The ambience was nice, very open and it wasn't too loud. Food was good, a little over priced but it was an overall good experience.
