    Food was excellent. The value was good, had to order side vegetables separately though - just main dish on plate. The restaurant’s noise level was too loud to be able to carry a conversation without having to raise our voice. Very busy.

    Had dined here previously 3 or 4 times but it had been 6-8 mths since my last visit. FANTASTIC as usual & my girlfriend was equally as impressed. Best steak tartar she’s ever had & the heirloom carrots are a sure fire “can’t miss” side! 16oz ribeye with chimchurri was spot-on! And let’s not forget the creamy burratta with strawberries. Chef’s kiss!

    Ordered the burrata which was excellent combination. Only suggestion is to give two pieces of the bread instead of one to enjoy these delicious toppings. Unfortunately the rib eye was over cooked. Ordered medium rare and received medium well. The place salt in side. I wish steak was more salted. The lobster pasta dish was perfect. Fries excellent home cut. The star was the sticky toffee pudding. Only suggestion would be to change out the cream topping for vanilla bean icecream. I would try this place again. Setting was nice and staff friendly. I would make sure to tell them to ensure med rare for steak. I didn’t say anything this time and kinda wish I had. That was the only downfall when your paying 74 for a steak

    This is the best restaurant in Ontario the best food I’ve ever had in my life. I don’t even like to eat red meat generally, but whenever I go to the common stove, I have to order the steak my most regret is ordering everything and forgetting about dessert.

    Always a fantastic meal with outstanding service. The wood fire grill adds so much flavour to the meal. The sticky toffee pudding was to die for and huge! Mocktails were delicious too.

    The noise level was a bit high - but only because everyone in the restaurant was enjoying themselves. Definitely an elevated brunch - in terms of the food and was exactly what we were hoping for!
