It has a nice ambiance, intimate, and suitable for conversation. We went on a Tuesday night, the restaurant was half full. We ordered the Short ribs, steak frites, and hamburger. All of us enjoyed our meals. The meat was done well, and portion sizes were good. It is an older restaurant with a classic charm. Service was on point. We celebrated a birthday and ordered the 13-layer chocolate cake. It was a fun birthday treat, and it was delicious, not too sweet. There was plenty to take home afterwards. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and exceeded my expectations.

Vasili provided us with prompt and attentive service and accommodated our special requests with a smile. Our food had a lovely presentation and served at just the right temperature. The pate was like a mousse, very flavourful and light. The frites arrived piping hot just the way we like them. The ratatouille kabob had a nice smokey flavour accompanied by a spicey sauce. The glazed carrots were cooked perfectly.

Income here because for not much more money than most other places you get amazing attitude-less service and impeccable quality standards. That said, $30 for a plate of Eggs Benedict might include a more generous amount of potaotes and perhaps even include a small side salad of frisée with sauted lardon and melted Gruyère on baguette. Just sayin.
