   This was an exceptional culinary experience. If you have an opportunity to get a seat you should jump at the opportunity to go. I can’t say enough good things about the food, service, ambiance and overall experience.

   Possibly the most expensive dining experience I have ever had in Canada, and third in the world (behind Sukiyabashi Jiro in Tokyo and Le Palais in Taipei), I had pretty high expectation for this establishment. Overall, I felt the experience stroke high right away, but unfortunately fell short as the evening progressed. Over a 19 course fare, the initial bites truly shined, including my favorite, chawanmushi with lobster, which featured a very well emulsified lobster infused hollandaise sauce. Other highlights included the Innisfail carrot soup, king crab mixed with hokkaido uni cream and dressed with caviar, a king salmon prepared in sashimi bites but trayed with a crispy skin. These dishes all came in bite size appetizer portions, and showed off some amazing gastronomy skills of the chef and the staff. Once we entered entree territory, the BC halibut prepared with Thai curry and the chicken jus infused, black truffles donned pasta were both great, however, it is also around this time, I realize I may not be full due to these entree's tiny portions and the unlimited baguette served with sake churned butter being brought to the table. Things started to take a dive with the last 2 entrees, the duck from Quebec, served in a "Peking style", and the Alberta beef sirloin. Starting with the duck, I saw it sat on the cutting board for at least 15 to 20 minutes, and when it was served it was already lukewarm. Although claimed to be dry-aged for 15 days, I just didn't get any flavor punch that I expected from the process. Furthermore, having had way too many greatly prepared duck around the world, many of them cheaper than this meal, this dish just came across as bland, lukewarm, and tough. The sirloin was even worse, not only was it not very flavorful (no aging this time), there was a pretty large piece of tough tendon inside the meat. Not only myself and my companion felt this, the group next to us expressed the same displeasure before I shared my feelings about it.

   The experience at EIGHT was unlike any other dining experience i've ever had. The way that Darren and the team have carefully crafted the dishes with the best ingredients from around the country and tell a story with each dish was very intentional and well executed. I recommend EIGHT for anybody looking for a unique and special dining experience in the city and look forward to coming back

   Food was unreal! The owner was there to walk us through all the courses and talk about where everything was inspired
