    Good ambiance, nice drinks. Generally, food tastes really good. However, outside of the salad, food portions are quite small, even items they note to share.

    Did not find that the price for the set menu was worth it. Was also misled based on the OpenTable booking and being there in person. It was 1 appetizer, 1 main, and 1 dessert in person, whereas OpenTable made it seem like a full tasting menu. Not worth the value at all.

    We ordered the salad and venison carpaccio for starters, steak frites and bourballion as mains, the paris brest for dessert. This was for the Valentine's menu. Overall, the food didn't taste as good as we would've liked, the steak was a bit undercooked for medium rare, the bourballion just didn't taste good and wasn't cooked well. For the price, it wasn't worth it.

    While the service and our waiter was amazing! The value of the food was extremely poor. For $110, “the valentine’s day menu”, patrons were provided 1 singular oyster, a sample size of either carpaccio, salad, or soup. The main course was either steak frites (steak was being churned out by their kitchen with no regard to quality), a small seafood broil, or a pasta dish that we did not try. Dessert was mediocre at best. Extremely disappointed by the quality and value of the food! Lapinou has no business charging premium rates for unappetizing food.

    From the moment we arrived to the moment we left everything was perfect. Our server Kenny was wonderful, he was informative and entertaining. All the dishes were fantastic. It’s a beautiful space. We had the Valentine Day fixed menu and it was the greatest steak I’ve ever had in my life.  I will absolutely be back to try more from the regular menu. Bravo Lapinou.

    Overpriced, terrible service, mediocre food. Waiter got our order wrong… 3 times.. he kept coming back every 15 minutes to verify the order (which he got wrong each time, not sure why he didn’t just write it down instead of trying to memorize?) We came 30 minutes early for the happy hour cocktails, but the waiter didn’t input our order until AFTER happy hour and charged us double. He spilt my drink on the table and just walked away. It took over an hour for us to get our appetizer… a salad. Another 45 minutes to get our dinner and another 45 to get dessert. Honestly it was crazy waiting so long for such bad food. The only time the server interacted with us was to hand off the food, but was quick to get the bill

    This is a lovely restaurant with good food and excellent service but the portion size was very small. Not as flavourful as expected.

    The food was great. The winterlicious portions were very small for the main dish. A bit stingy. I was very pleased overall nevertheless.
