Greta Solomun's never disappoints! We had their Thursday Steak & Frites special for $35 with their house red, which was spectacular! Getting this quality for this price is, well, priceless!

A fantastic dining experience from start to finish. How lucky are we to have this incredible restaurant right in our neighbourhood. Every morsel was stellar but the celeriac purée was life-changing. Can’t wait to go back!

First time there, and I really enjoyed the food. The tartare was great, loved the horseradish cream to add some kick. The Cesar was avg, but my duck and my friends sweet breads were delish. The restaurant is quite compact ao if you have mobility issues maybe not great. Service was good but transactional.
