    We haven’t been here for years but we’re so happy we went back because it was great. The food, the patio, the staff, was all excellent. It’s one of the best patios in Guelph right now. We decided to get a few appetizers for our dinner so we could try the great options and everything was delicious. It’s a great place for couples or families and we will dine here again for sure.

    I've eaten here twice with small groups, and both times the food and service was top notch. My only complaint is the background music is nauseating. Thumpy generic canned music meant to be unobjectionable is hard to ignore. Imagine Rocket Man and every other popular tune that can be manipulated to some weird template of upbeat monotonous soft rock (continuous same singer, same style). Get rid of that trash and full 5 (both times).

    The new scallop dish on the menu is delicious! As per usual we had the black tiger shrimp which never disappoints! The beef shank was so tender and the cheesecake was over the top! Never disappointed at Atmosphere! Service was great!

    Reservation was for the patio. Excellent set up and enjoyed the outside atmosphere. The service on Sunday was outstanding. Everyone we ate was also outstanding. Highly recommended this restaurant.

    I picked this restaurant randomly for four of us. We all had items from the Brunch menu. Everything was exceptional. I will definitely be going back.

    It was a cold & rainy afternoon but was a perfect opportunity to reunite with a friend. We ordered two different gf pizzas & a salad to share. It was delicious & we got to sample more of the menu. We made a change to the menu without any fuss from staff. All in all, a perfect lunch!
