"Great food selections - very nice arrangements of salads and pizzas. The wine list is very limited for glasses and there are no half litre options, which is disappointing for those who don't want to drop $40-$80 on a bottle. Nice ambience with a lovely waitstaff. The menu is a bit outdated (i.e. not cutting-edge trendy) but the combination of ingredients is delicious, which is what matters. We brought my (60ish) parents, and there was a nice balance of "safe" options for them. They were still a bit taken aback by our 416 prices, but such is life in the big city. :)"

"Food was nothing special. I ordered a pasta dish and the server told me she could add olives to the dish, so I said Sure..and later found out I got charged $3 for the additional olives. Not a lot of cocktail choices, but their wine list is pretty good. The atmosphere was really pleasant."

"The food was fantastic, I loved the attention to detail and aesthetics. I also loved that they ahd gluten free and vegetarian options, however the portions are very small. I would definately recommend grabbing an appetizer to go along with your meal. The service was a bit slow, and the servers were a bit pretentious, that was the only downside to the experience, all in all it was the food and ambience that made the night."
