    This was, without a doubt, one of the best meals I’ve had in the city. I took my partner out for a birthday celebration and this place ticked all of the boxes. The service was wonderful. He was wished a ‘Happy Birthday’ three times during the meal and was made to feel incredibly special. The vibe is chic and modern, but also somehow feels classic. The place settings, the dark wood finishes, and the mood lighting all helped to create an elevated atmosphere. The black and white Italian films playing behind the large bar were a nice touch. We partook in the 4 course Winterlicious menu and decided to add two additional apps. Also, half off any bottle of wine on the menu on Sunday nights? Heck yes. Ya’ll. THEY. DID. NOT. COME. TO. PLAY. The food was truly an 11/10. It was immaculate. There wasn’t one bad bite in sight. The Focaccia, the Truffle Salad, the Arancini, both the Cornish Hen and the Porchetta, the Rigatoni alla Bolognese, and both the Tiramisu and the Brownie a la mode were all standouts. A huge shoutout to our server, Olivia, who was so welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable. There wasn’t a moment where our glasses weren’t being topped up, the table wasn’t being wiped down, or cutlery wasn’t being laid out for the next course. She helped make the experience so wonderful for us. We’re already planning our next trip. 5/5 stars. A must try!

    We enjoyed our time here immensely. Our server Will was a gem and steered us to a new wine we really liked. We opted for two different 3 course options. The truffle salad was fresh and the crisp apples and cheese were pleasing, as was the use of gem lettuce. It was a generous size. LI had the mushroom risotto entree while my spouse tried the branzino. Both were delicious. The branzino had a touch of red chili heat. Both servings were filling yet we were comfortable having our included desserts. Tiramisu was above average and the husband was very pleased with the brownie topped with ice cream and caramel. If we return to Toronto we will likely return here as well.
