    It started with a very professional hostess in a very cool setting, then an absolutely delicious cocktail (The Alexis) that had so many delightful flavours. We were just in for an appetizer so we had the dumplings and tacos ~ just packed with flavour!!! One of the best food experiences I’ve had in a while and I can’t wait to go back to try their homemade ice cream!

    Immaculate vibes. Feels cozy but also upscale, so many yummy dishes to share between friends and a wine list full of wines you can’t find anywhere else in the province!!

    The drinks were amazing but the food was overly sweetened and lacked basic salt. It appears they are trying to hard to be relevant in the kitchen. Please don’t overcomplicate your dishes.

    Ostrich Club never disappoints. The space is cozy and welcoming, as are the staff. And I love the small plates! My favourite place to have cocktails and food in the city.
