    A great vibe, happy people and delicious food. We sat with four people at a table that seemed to be for 10, we kept thinking other people would be seated with us but that did not happen. It's very loud and a little challenging if you have a hearing issue. Service was a bit slower than expected for the prices. Will definitely be back.

    Excellent service and delicious fare. We had the crab cake and calamari apps, followed by the lamb chops, hanger steak, and lobster ravioli. All were prepared well and portions were generous. The by the glass wine choices could have been a little wider but we went when the corkage fee was waived so no complaints. Our server was friendly, efficient and professional. We'll be back!

    Outstanding Service, lovely food and charming atmosphere. Burgers, truffle fries, Desert Board and Gingerbread Chai Latte were very tasty. We were seated outside under heaters which was perfect thanks to good weather. They offered Seasonal Cocktails and they were passing hors d'oeuvres while we were waiting to be seated. This cafe is situated in Terrain and it was so beautifully decorated for Christmas including a snow machine. This was my 2nd visit and Restaurant staff are excellent.

    We had a wonderful meal with friends. A very large group came in and were very loud (obviously not the restaurants fault) which made it difficult to hear ourselves. Overall the food and service were wonderful.
