    It was my husband’s 72nd birthday. Our server, Susan, was awesome. And Connor even came over to say hi, as we had dined at the restaurant he works at earlier in day ❤️. Food always spectacular. We are so grateful to have a restaurant like this in St Albert.

    Absolutely outstanding! We were there for Valentine’s Day and the 3 course meal was fantastic! We had the beef and tuna tartare appetizer and it was the best tartare my husband and I have had. The same for the melt in your mouth entree, Chateau Briand. Top tier, cooked perfectly. And the dessert was literally one of the best we’ve had in our dining experience. The Baked Alaska was just divine and a fabulous way to end the night. Couple that with lovely service and it is definitely a place we can’t wait to go back to!

    What a lovely restaurant! A true gem of a place in all aspects. Delicious food so beautifully presented. Absolute flexibility in accommodating dietary needs. Our server was very knowledgeable, helpful, professional and very kind. We hit on a very quiet evening - such a tastefully decorated place that exudes calm and class. Would definitely return here again and again and recommend it to anyone looking for a superb evening of dining.

    The food was excellent, though a little too sweet for my liking. The service, however, was exceptional—our waitress was warm and considerate. We were let down by the coffee; the espresso lacked crema and was flat, while the latte was too watery. A loud group disrupted the atmosphere, and unfortunately, the management didn’t address it.
