    Fantastic dinner from start to finish. The lasagna and pickerel were particular highlights. The service was exceptional. Our server was thoughtful, attentive, charming and had very practical feedback whenever we had menu questions. We were celebrating my wife’s birthday, and decided to forgo dessert (being fully satisfied and full.) Not one to miss an opportunity, our wonderful server surprised us with a birthday candle in a ramekin, along with a couple glasses of Montenegro to underline the occasion. So thoughtful! All in all, wonderful experience and would recommend to even my pickiest friends.

    We celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday, and it was an amazing experience! We tried the Louix Louis burger, Marlada pasta, and mac and cheese. The burger and pasta were absolutely delicious, but unfortunately, the mac and cheese fell short of our expectations it lacked flavor. Despite that, the ambiance was fantastic, and the service was great . I’d definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a great lunch or dinner in the city!

    New additions to the menu (specifically the Tuna salad) was amazing. Will definitely order again. It's a busy place and quite large - great for a group gathering. Experienced team from the Eatons Centre location has made the opening (I am sure) easier - great to see Crystal. New team member (Natalie) as server was lovely, attentive, well trained in team culture. Will definitely be back.
