We had the most fantastic meal. The atmosphere is comfortable & unpretentious, & both the quality of food & the service is outstanding. Bone marrow was a decadent appetizer. Beef tagliatelle & the Duck special were decadent but not overwhelming. Highly recommend & we hope to return.

Best steak I've eaten in a long time. The place has a relaxed atmosphere. The owner is a great guy & friendly to boot. The poutine with truffle is to die for! Greatly recommended for family & friends.

Highly recommend for a cozy dinner. We shared the mushroom toast, Brussels sprouts, tagliatelle, salmon special, & the sticky toffee. Dishes are on the smaller side but the flavours & quality outweigh the size. Service was fantastic, too.
