    Amazing food and service. Staff were amazing and every interaction felt special. We have never tasted food so good. I didn’t even mind paying a lot for some dishes because it was that good. Some dishes could have had more on them for the price but nevertheless it was amazing. The kitchen staff took extra care with the presentation and quality for every dish. Our waitress said they change out their menu often, so every time you visit it’s a new experience as the menu is small but well created.

    Enjoyed a special meal with the family, including my mother, who was visiting from out of town. Tastes were original, beautifully prepared and presented. We ordered almost everything on the menu including cocktails, wine and dessert and the bill, including tip and tax, was about $140 per person. I think that a larger group is the best way to enjoy this spot. We found the ambience to be really lovely and stayed almost 3 hours.

    A treasure to enjoy on the regular. The quaint location where the food is of such Michelin quality but the flavour and perfect pairing and sharing plates make you feel so comfortable it's a must must try over again. The pappardelle with pistachio to the duck confit and scallops with shaved brussel salad ... magnificent. But do start with a paper plane cocktail. Worth the experience.

    This was my 4th visit and the menu has been as different as it is delicious every time! Definitely order dessert ! It was so nice to see The New Farm there for their staff Christmas party. What a great place for a Christmas party! So great to know they offer catering!!!

    It was very special. To have this quality locally is amazing! Each dish was creative and served with an explanation of the local content and preparation. The brussel sprouts were the best I’ve ever tasted and when I told the chef that he explained how he prepared them! I think I would pay 50% more for the same meal in Toronto.

    Oh my! What an exquisite dining experience. So cozy and inviting. Great music and lighting. Staff was informed and attentive, but not overly so. Each dish was carefully crafted and oh so yummy from the first bite. Will come again and will recommend to friends.
