The eggs Benedict is outstanding and the service is excellent. It was bustling today, so can be a little challenging to hear over the din.

Best meal of a week-long trip. Creative, precise cooking. Professional, but not intrusive service. Music in the background, but you can talk. Surprise hit: A squash over homemade tagliatelle ragout that somehow was savory with just hints of the kaboucha squash's sweetness. Duck breast on point. Nice selection of wines by the glass. A true neighborhood gem, but it's beyond that.

Thanks so much for this great review Jon. I hope you had a great trip.

Excellent service — first and foremost. All of the dishes we had were very flavourful, and good portion sizes. The pear salad and squash ragu were my favourite dishes. Cocktails were spot on and wine list was concise and well priced. Can’t wait to return!

Look forward to seeing you back here!

The food was okay - not fantastic. The proteins were over cooked and not particularly warm. The side dishes were lukewarm. It was packed and quite noisy. I don’t think we will be back.

Brunch was good, fairly standard. 20 ish bucks for benny. No comparison didn’t stand out either Hash browns could have been levelled up a bit. Given the restaurants reputation. Maybe better for dinner. My companion had the omelette it was better than the benny.

We went for brunch and the food and service was excellent. The featured omelette was quite possibly one of the best omelettes I have had. My wife had the French toast which she enjoyed. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting. If you are looking for a solid brunch spot on the weekend, this place delivers.
