    An outstanding restaurant in the Hilton Hotel in downtown Toronto. From the greeting of the hostess to the warm service offered by George our server to the food - all went beyond our expectations. Service was efficient but did not give the feeling of being rushed to ensure we were comfortably on time for the ballet we were attending just across the street. It is off the main lobby so could be noisy (the initial noise when we first arrived quickly died down), however the hostess did seat people in the area which was more remote from the lobby which did help. The only other improvement could be the seating. Cushions were provided to help, but found the banquette positioned well back from the table and the tub chairs although they looked comfortable to sit did not position those of us of short stature as comfortably for eating. However, this is definitely on my list for a return visit. Many more menu items to try out!

    We loved our dinner at Biff's Bistro - we enjoyed the Happy Hour hors d'oeuvres and wine. We ordered flatiron 7" steak frites; the duck and Moules plus Frites were delicious ,reasonably priced and delivered in a very timely manner. Lovely night out.
