    Food was awesome and service was even better! From the scallop sandwiches to the strudel, the flavour balance in every dish was on point and perfectly seasoned. The timing between courses were definitely on the longer side but the dish was worth the wait. The servers were super nice but I want to give a huge shoutout to our main server with the bob-cut. She explained the food/drink menu very well and was very patient as we ended up choosing the tasting menu. Overall, the restaurant met my expectations and I was perfectly satisfied in the end.

    Our meals were savoury. Ambients just beautiful. Food came in a timely fashion. Our waitstaff Chris was exceptionally thorough in suggesting and explaining menu seeing it was our first time. The only thing I wish was the reataurant interior to be much bigger. Felt tables space didn't allow me enough foot room. I do think the warmer months would allow for this because they do have a beautuful terrasse. Overall experience was pleasant and we cant waite to go back to try something new.
