    A lunch on the patio with a friend was made special by the wonderful service from the front reception to our adorable waiter. Everyone offered us a comfortable, warm seat and an umbrella if we needed it. The drinks menu is very exciting and will bring me back for an evening. Our lunch, the Moroccan meatballs for me, the goat and pear salad for her was perfect and arrived with a smile and flourish. We loved the view of the water and trees. The music was a bit too loud but then we are older so maybe just us.

    We were disappointed with our table. After making reservations 5 days in advance, we were given a terrible table in a corner, far away from windows. There were many tables available with views, but not ours. We won't be coming back any time soon.

    Had a lovely lunch on the patio in the sunshine. Food was great, service was excellent, it's one of our favourite patios to go to. The only thing that would make it perfect would be having the patio as dog friendly.

    The restaurant is a nice environment although a bit noisy. The service was slow, and the food mediocre. The Calamari was flavourless, my cedar roasted sockeye salmon was grossly overdone, parts were crispy and the rest was dry, the asparagus were overcooked and the garlic mashed were lukewarm to cool. They tried to make amends with not much better results with parts uncooked (raw) and some crispy and dry. BTW, it is served on a tiny cedar board, piled on top of potatoes but definitely not cedar roasted. The rest was a bit better than the first time but not much. My friend had crispy chicken lettuce wrap as starter and blackened creole chicken. She was not impressed with either.

    Every time we go to the Glo we are seated at a poor table, even with reservations made well in advance; it’s as though they try to save the better tables for later??? The “tenderloin” carbonara had zero seasoning. I had to put about @ quarter teaspoon of salt on it. The meat was severely over cooked and it had very little sauce. It was the worst meal I’ve had there. The pear and pecan salad was amazing, the best salad I’ve had in a long time anywhere! The server literally forgot about us after we received our entrees.

    Staff very accommodating when we showed up an hour early for our reservation and then we dithering over eating inside or out. Decided on out which was our mistake as the wind was pretty cold. Even with blankets. I wonder if a few vertical panels between tables against the restaurant wall would deflect the wind? Servers were very good and my beef dip was excellent. Would go again.
