   I chose this restaurant for my birthday dinner, but it was a big disappointment. Drinks were lovely but overpriced. We were served a small single serving of bread to share, it was stale and cut into very small pieces. (On the menu it specified that additional “bread and sauce” would be an extra 6$). The salad was a small lightly dressed garden salad, and while the fries were tasty, they resembled McDonald’s. For the steak, we requested medium-rare, it arrived cold with a weak sear. We assumed it would be a result of a cold pan and the texture was also chewy. The staff was polite but given the intimate atmosphere the sterility of that type of service created a cold atmosphere. To top it off it had been specified on my reservation that the occasion was my birthday, yet we were not even OFFERED a dessert before having been offered the bill. For 3 drinks and a standard meal, and tip my boyfriend paid over $200. Overall, the experience did not justify the price and I’m so disappointed to have chosen to splurge on this restaurant.

   Service was great, very friendly and attentive. A bit of a dark ambiance until it was discovered the light above our table weren't turned on. Music was a bit too loud with only 2 tables in service, which one was ours.

   Food was great, server was friendly, efficient, just felt rushed, would have preferred a bit more time to have some drinks and not eat so fast.

   Great food. Unlimited fries were delicious, and the steak (& house sauce) was the best I've ever had. The salad is the least amazing thing about the courses, but the candied walnuts really make the salad. The bread was also nice, would be better if warm.

   Save your money. You’re better off at the Keg. Food was mediocre at best. We finished our meal and were enjoying our wine and with no one else in the restaurant, the server asked us to honor the 90 min table policy and clear out. Literally no one else around. The owner chose to have the staff do their dirty work for them and decided to blame the customer. Absolutely lame.
