    Found the restaurant through a ‘best brunch place’ search; it is also on the Michelin guide website. Ordered one each of the 2 and 3 course set brunch menu. We had some delightful surprises along the way such as a special chair for your purse, 2 fancy drinks included per set, and pre-split dishes for most of the items because our server confirmed we were sharing our different choices. Each dish was beautifully presented and delicious. We were seated in a cozy atrium area with lots of plants around. Will definitely return for another celebration.

    Treated like a valued guest, even though I was dressed casually and don’t have “posh manners”. Came for the Raincouver Cocktail - it was wonderful, complete with detailed presentation from the bartender - my foam bubble rain cloud was refreshed several times before I finished the drink. Also had the seared scallops (delicious), as well as complimentary olive plate and sourdough bread. Greycup festival was happening all down the block outside, so that explains the louder noise level - quiet conversation was still possible. A most excellent experience!

    Lovely experience! We decided to stay at the lounge since we were interested in cocktails & desserts. Service was a bit spotty at times but it was a busy weekend! The foie Gras fat washed cocktail was a disappointment… desserts were really good!

    We celebrated our 10th anniversary here and it did not disappoint! We had the chefs menu and it was unbelievable. Probably the best meal I've ever had. The flavours were insane. I highly recommend if you are looking to splurge.
