Very nice restaurant. Had the 5 course degustation menu for $60. Simple but refined food with scallops, sturgeon, duck among others. Could've done with some green vegetables but otherwise excellent. Excellent service in a cute little restaurant with an open kitchen. I'd definitely return & recommend.

We had an amazing meal here. The skirt steak was cooked to perfection & the daily soup was full of flavour. Every spoonful was a treat. Highly recommend going. Very good service & cozy atmosphere.
