Scallop tartare - great starter, refreshing. Duck frites - highly recommend, good to share. Triple cooked fries were sooo good. Spice on the duck is so tasty. Fish dish - delicious, good fish broth. Angel cake (dessert) - kind of a letdown, cake was not fluffy, almost like stale texture. Good natural wine selection. Service was professional, warm, and approachable.

Food and service were both delightful. Excellent menu items, and our server was super helpful and on the ball. Bonus points for being extra attentive to allergy alerts. Thanks for a lovely dining experience!

A colleague and I had dinner here last night and it was fantastic! The food was excellent, fabulous wine list, and attentive and knowledgeable staff. A tad on the crowded/loud side, but it was 10/10!

Amazing food, amazing wine list, amazing service. Very nice patio. We loved it and will definitively go back and recommend it. Maybe some cushions for the patio seating should be considered.

No complaints about the food but the place was freezing cold. An icebox. We requested three separate times, could you please turn down the A/C? Apparently not. Hard to enjoy the evening as a result.

Brought an out of town friend to the back garden to enjoy some light bites and interesting wines. As expected, food was phenomenal, perfectly seasoned and featured two of our favourite things: vegetables and seafood. We had the oysters, olives, scallop tartare, asparagus salad and Cavendish and “Caviar” and enjoyed some new-to-us white, orange and rosé wines. Kat was a lovely, knowledgeable server. Thanks!

Clean and curated menu with high quality ingredients. Well thought out and exciting to eat. The Beef Tataki and Scallop Tartare were both the stars of the evening. DO NOT sleep on these options. Shared the Ribeye and although it was a safer and simpler menu choice, I found the execution to have lacked a little. Ironic maybe. The flavours were all there, but I think I should have gone with my initial choice instead of the steak. The wine list was very comprehensive and had a good mix of options. A lot of natural options, which is kind of cool to see on a restaurant wine list. Nothing crazy expensive, nothing notably cheap. The space was clean and suited the vibe perfectly. Service was great. Passionate and knowledgeable. Not fine dining service, but not a fine dining restaurant. Would definitely go back.
