   Food was kinda bad. Trying too hard without it tasting that great.

   The cocktails were decent, The Boulevardier was nicely crafted, though the Paper Plane missed the mark slightly, lacking its classic garnish . As for the food, let’s just say it was a masterclass in mediocrity. Vegetarian/vegan options? Practically nonexistent. The tempura was a greasy mess with undercooked yam, the Parmesan fries had about three flakes of cheese, and the ravioli? Clearly forgotten in the fridge until the edges turned into cardboard. The only redeeming quality was the service—polished and attentive, though even they couldn’t salvage this culinary letdown. If you’re aiming for anything beyond a drink, I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

   The staff was rude. While we were still eating our salad, the main dish arrived. While we were still enjoying our wine, they brought the bill and stood there waiting for me to pay. My friend hadn’t even finished her wine when they asked us to leave, saying they have a strict two-hour time limit.

   Lovely atmosphere. We went for Valentine's and it was a prix fixe menu with 3 selections per category. The appetizers (Burrata and bone marrow tartar) were decent and came at a decent pace. It was entirely downhill from there. The appetizer plates sat on our table for 30 minutes, we kept getting our table butt checked by the server attending to the table squeezed beside us. The mains arrived- steak fries with a "cut" steak which was ice cold, and a seafood pasta that had a few sad token mussels, a couple shrimp and I counted 2 calamari rings. Again, cold as ice, with tomato pasta sauce reminiscent of Chef Boyardee. Hubby's steak knife came pre-used- aka fully dirty- and was returned. At this point we just asked to have everything boxed up, including our pending dessert as part of the prixe fix. To the sever and hosts credit they acknowledged the lackluster service and promised to relay feedback on the food to the kitchen. We left (and did tip!) Only to come home and find that they forgot our damn desserts. $230 for cold food and no dessert. We. Will. Not. Be. Back.

   Everything was great. Food and drinks- excellent, well crafted, and you could tell that a lot of thought and creativity went into it. Ambience was perfect as was the size of the restaurant, neither felt oversized nor cluttered. And the staff were amazing, every one was friendly, attentive, immersed in the customers experience and kept the energy of the place going. I’ll recommend this place to anyone who asks me about you all and will definitely be back. Thank you 🙏🏽.

   We had an amazing Valentines dinner here! The ambience was cozy but very chic, and the service attentive and professional. It definitely felt like a high end Toronto eatery in Mississauga. I had the burrata with chutney which was so delicious, and my steak was cooked to perfection. The presentation was top class as well. Would definitely come back!

   I went with my boyfriend of my cousin here for a night out. When we walked in the ambience was very warm. The staff are all very welcoming. The atmosphere itself is very beautiful and nice for photos. We were seated immediately and served quite promptly. My only complaint was we were seated at a booth across from the entrance and every time the door opened it was absolutely freezing, which would only be an issue in the winter. One of my favorite things about any restaurant is that their servers are excellent, and ours was no exception. I believe his name was Daniel (I apologize if I got this wrong, I am bad with names), he was very knowledgeable, paid attention, and was so friendly, he was an absolute pleasure and made the experience more fun. We started with drinks which were all decent, my cousin and I both got bartenders choice custom drinks, mine was essentially a expresso martini and my cousins was a fruity drink that qas overpowered by tequila. We also shared a charcuterie board, which everything was great on there. I also ordered a Mojito which was also good. I have a seafood allergy and went with the Thai Chicken Curry which was quite flavourful. My only complaint was the chicken was mostly fatty, soft chicken skin and not actual pieces of meat. My boyfriend is gluten intolerant and ordered the Seafood Risotto, which he loved, his only complaint was he wanted more salt and more of the shrimp, he said the shrimp was absolutely delicious and he would have rather had more shrimp and leave the calms. My cousin ordered the Korean Fried Chicken and it was delicious, it tasted like traditional southern fried chicken my dad made and he was from Mississippi, it had a sweet/tangy sauce on it. We were all too full for a dessert. Overall it was a great place and we would all go again.

    I went for brunch and ordered the avocado toast. It came with one egg only and the avocado did not look or taste fresh. The hostess called me the day before to let me know there is a time limit and when we arrived they also mentioned 1.5 hours time limit even though we were a party of 3. They then told us they need to serve the next party as 1.5 hours already passed and they need the table. My food and my friends’ wasnt that great compared to other restaurants with similar food items, such as pure and simple. Our server was very good and nice though. Overall, I would not recommend this place. The value for money just doesn’t match and i wasnt excited to go after the hostess called me the night before just to let me know about the time limit
