   Local intel had promised good food, wine and creative menus…the intel was delivered. In town for a conference, I lured two others away from the closing event to join me for the tasting menu. Two of our party added the wine pairing. The serving staff were welcoming, informative and lively. Five course menu highlights: Fried bread was a fabulous cross between a Sicilian hot oil cooked pane and bannock. So, so good. Choice of three salads; endive and blue cheese, beetroot or spring greens…all delicious! Prosecco of course. Bison carpaccio or prosciutto with pine nuts…we all chose the Bison. OMG. A Sicilian rose. Choice of pasta for third course. A myriad of house made pastas. We went with two orders of the northern pike stuffed ravioli and a carbonara. Remarkably delicious…would have loved a taste of all the pastas! A lovely, crisp veneto. Fourth plates; two bison steaks with corn succotash and one pork cotechino with broccolini…still in awe. A Chianti and a Montfalco rosso Five course, dessert. Flourless chocolate torte, pavlova and butterscotch budino with maldon salt. An Amaro and a ten year tawny The table consensus, top ten meal of our lives!

   This is a great restaurant. The braised duck tagliatelle was one of the best pasta dishes I have ever had. Incredible flavours, super rich, perfectly cooked pasta. Great wine list and excellent dessert. Wonderful staff too!

   Overall, a good experience. However, our server seemed to be rushed and spoke very fast, kind of seemed like they were trying to get us out to turn over the table. Food was delicious! We started with the beet salad, which was very small, but it tasted awesome. We also got the spaghetti al limon, spaghetti pomodoro, and the bison steak. Both spaghetti were delicious, specifically the pomodoro, I think it's the best pasta I've had in the city! The bison steak was a bit chewy and a small plate for $40+, but tasted good.

   For our first dining experience, we couldn't have been treated any better if we tried! From sitting to finishing our meal, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional wait staff, complimented by the hostess who kept everyone flowing quite well. The food was another experience altogether! Flavors my pallet enjoyed at each interval. The compliments of fresh flavors and savory sauces, kept my mouth watering for the next course! Thank you for the enjoyable evening, will definitely come back!

    Great food, great wine and a charming atmosphere. We will definitely be back to try the full tasting menu and wine flights when we are more hungry!
