I had the Roasted Chicken and it was moist and quite good overall. The staff was attentive (we always had plenty of bread on the table) and friendly. I was reading some of the plaques on the wall and one of the staff members noticed and brough me a history of the building, which I thought was very nice of her. What I do have to rave about though, is the tiramasu, I swear time stood still when I ate that. It wasn't too sweet and the chocolate chips in it gave it a nice texture. If anything could bring me back that would be it.
This is my favorite restaurant in the KW area. The atmosphere is fun, with beautiful reclaimed brick, and warm decor. The service is accomplished and friendly. We eat here 5 or 6 times a year, and pretty well always have wonderful food. They do great fish. the best calamari. The wine list is awesome. Menu changes seasonally. Love it!
Went during their Mexican festival. Had the enchilladas which were quite boring and bland. Girlfriend had the Gemella(sp) pasta dish with smoked turkey. She ended up eating around the turkey as the flavour was too intense for her. Waitress refilled our diet soda glasses three times and did not inform us that it was not complimentary so ended up with a $14 bill for soda. Was not happy with that trick, although I take a bit of heat on that for not questioning her. Such small drink glasses were provided, I just assumed that it would have been free.
Caeser salad is a highlight here with a huge portion of smoked bacon and delicious parmesean cheese. The lettuce was nice and cold, great garlic flavour and a decent price. I also felt the service was very sterile. Almost gloomy personalities that was a bit of a turnoff.
Will likely return for the salad as it was delicious and will watch for the refills!
Great atmosphere but a bit pretentious. Professional service but lacking sincerity. Food is good, but not great - especially given the price. Good wine selection. Overall a decent place to go, but there are better options in town.
During the summer months, the patio provides a comfortable and quiet place to relax and to enjoy good conversation. The menu remains quite limited although the wine list is rather robust. Service is inconsistent and seemingly insincere, with a few notable exceptions. I dine here about 1-2 a month and will continue to do so.
