Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Joyce, Toronto Fri, 19 August 2022

Although our food was tasty, the drinks selection was terrible. The restaurant was out of most of their white and red wines, as well as their speciality drinks. Since our reservation was for 5 p.m., we were surprised that a restaurant would be out of most drinks by that early evening hour. And although our server was very friendly and apologetic, the service was quite slow. Overall, it was not a positive experience.

Liked: The food was tasty.
Disliked: Extremely poor selection of drinks available. The restaurant was out of most of their white and red wines, as well as some of the speciality drinks.
