We went to the Forth for Mother's Day brunch. It is a lovely room, with very high ceilings. Unfortunately, it was quite chilly! Our food was very good. In particular, the lobster and shrimp cake was wonderful! The service was ok, but at that price I would have expected better. Still, I would return.

We were warmly greeted, served creaive delicious food and well taken care of throughout the meal. We had a birthday to celebrate and the kitchen accommodated us with a beautiful dessert with a chocolate greeting. Cocktails were delicious from the talented bar staff. Highly recommend!

All the food was awful. We ordered a charcuterie board, which ended up being a plate with deli cold cuts on it (most likely from the grocery store beside the restaurant). The waiter told us the lamb was only good for two people, so we ordered that plus a lot more food. When the lamb arrived is was enough for a table of six, so the waiter basically tricked us into ordering $100+ more food that we didn't need. We will not return.

I decided to reserve a table here for a pre-Valentine's Day date and I was pleasantly surprised at the level of service we received. The staff were all so helpful - not just the waiter assigned to our table - but everyone that passed by either had a great recommendation or was there to refill our water before we even had to ask. We ordered oysters as an appetizer and one of the waitresses brought us a delightful and complimentary glass of champagne because she couldn't stand seeing us eat them paired with our red wine. The food was so savoury and the options are quite interesting, so make sure to go out on a limb and try something different because you will not be disappointed! The butternut squash soup with apple chunks is to die for, I could have had another two bowls all to myself. The prices are standard for a fine dining restaurant and I would definitely like to go back again once the weather warms up because apparently there is a beautiful rooftop patio to enjoy.

Parking can be a bit difficult, 3rd floor bar and service was superb Dinner food was very good. Be prepared for good conversation as the flow of food was a touch slower than ideal. Lamb special was not available - what? on a Saturday night there is no lamb in greek town of Toronto? are you kidding me??? PS we ate at 7 pm, there was only 1 other table of 4 at that time... they "sold out? of the special???" not much traffic for a Saturday night on the third weekend of January... Very good coffee's though. Got there for 7 did not get out until 1030. Like I said - great meal for friends who will converse a lot.... PS>. Don't call it "TAP" water... call it FLAT water cause it sounds better - LOL....

The hostess was extremely confused by the OpenTable res. she said that we didn't have one. then after i showed her the confirmation email she informed that our party had already arrived and to take the elevator to the 3rd floor. we got there and no one was there we explored the 2nd floor as well and didn't find them. We traveled down to the hostess as the rest of our party arrived. We decided to stay. The food was fine, the ambience was lacking. We felt like we were at a conference.

Went with a party of six for a birthday dinner. Was seated promptly and treated with utmost courtesy and professionalism throughout the event. I had a very good charcuterie appetizer and excellent bison for a main. Two interesting cocktails, from a well curated list. Others had equally memorable meals.
