Disappointing visit. Food quality fair to poor. Great fries, not great fish and chips, cool pasta, and small portions. Service was nice, though. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: CA$50–60 Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2

I don 't believe a chicken sandwich can be so disgusting, like the one they served me on December 30th, 2023. I was staying at the hotel with a friend and ordered 2 of those culinary delights to go (they cannot even deliver it to the room, but OK, maybe it is the hotel 's fault... . What you get is 2 layers of almost burnt breading between 2 pieces of round bun. No sauce, no ketchup for your fries, just a thin, almost invisible trace of some plastic like substance, which is supposed to remind you of cheese. I challenge you to find any traces of chicken in that sandwich! Well, I finally found 2 paper thin slices lost in that thick breading. The price? $25 plus tax! How can a manager of this place and the cook even have a job in 2023!?

I came to grab some drinks from the bar. The bartender was amazing! Very friendly and he made great drinks for us. Meal type: Other Service: 5

Do not recommend visiting. Ordered the summerlicious three course menu: calamari fritti, bison burger and flour less chocolate cake. The calamari was over fried and many pieces were burnt, the dipping sauce was good with the pieces that were edible but most weren 't. The bison burger was basic, would have tasted better if it was cooked medium/medium rare. It had very little cheese stuffed and not even a hint of bacon which it supposedly is stuffed with. The chocolate cake was chocolately and delicious which is why this place gets its two stars. There were many insects flying around the restaurant and even settled on the food which we then couldn 't eat. Alerted the waitress to this and she responded with oh they 're just fruit flies and they get in because of the door opening and we can 't avoid them. Ummm fruit flies carry bacteria and other restaurants seem to be able to avoid them indoors. Clearly, food safety, taste and health standards is not a priority for this restaurant and so do not recommend.
