    My friends and I were going to an 80s concert that night and dressed up in 80s style so the diner was an obvious fit. Everyone enjoyed the atmosphere, food was excellent and our waitress was gracious enough to take a picture of our group in our outfits. Definitely coming back!

    Went for the Novemburger. The A5 Brisket Jammer was delicious, my favourite burger of the competition and in my personal top 5. Our server, Nick, was knowledgeable and genuine, not pretentious. The decor and music was in my wheelhouse. Definitively going back. A great overall experience.

    The dinner we had was absolutely outstanding. The wild game sausage board was phenomenal, and the Mer et la Terre board was spectacular. Our pre-dinner drinks were also delicious. Their drink menu has changed from what's on their website: the Tequila Mockingbird has a perfectly balanced splash of watermelon juice in it, and there's a duck-fat-washed bourbon sour now which is just incredibly subtle and complex. We were there on a Thursday early evening, so it was relatively quiet which was lovely. Our host was warm and friendly and wonderful as well. The menu might not be right for everyone so definitely look it over beforehand. If you like what you see on the menu, I'm certain that you'll love the food that they serve you.
