   I think they are still trying to figure out what exactly they are. They say a steakhouse but don't know how to cook a steak. The wedge salad was absolutely ridiculous. A big hunk of lettuce, no dressing and very few toppings. Also, you are pretty much dining in an old ball room. No windows so the ambience isn't great.

   The hallway leading to the entrance was very unappealing (lined with about 15 empty coatracks - something I would not expect at a Fairmont hotel). We were the first reservation of the evening and were initially seated in a back corner. We asked to be moved up toward the fireplace and were reluctantly taken care of (this was prior to us having sat down at all.) The first course was too salty to enjoy. Main courses were average. And the apple tart was nice. They did, however, forget the ice cream for the tart - and we had to ask for it specifically. On the plus side, as we were celebrating our anniversary, the waitress comped our two drinks and the dessert (the dessert partially because they had forgotten the ice cream.) The fireplace -and fire- was enjoyable but, the layout of the room was awkward and it seemed the decor was “thrown in” randomly.

   The food was very unimpressive for the price, expected a much better dinning experience.

   We were at the Nook on December 29, 2023 and our server Jason was the best server we have ever had at a restaurant. He was beyond polite, extremely nice and friendly and was always coming to check on us and our food/drinks. The food was amazing and atmosphere was lovely. The only thing I would say they could improve on would be the height of the 4 top tables. It felt like we were sitting at a kids table but it was easy to look past. Again, Jason was phenomenal and deserves a raise or bonus. Thank you for the great experience, we will definitely be back!

   Great food and ambience. Quieter than the main lounge. Highly recommend the fondue. The staff were great.

   The fondue came after everyone else’s entrees came. There were some issues with staffing during the evening. Given the cost, we thought that the service could have been improved.
