The food was great, for the first time, I thought, matching what I have come to expect at the mother-ship Whyte Ave location. Generally, I prefer tables to booths to minimize disruptions during the sitting; however, we had a (comfortable) booth and I found disruptions more difficult than I prefer as we were on a tight timeline to make a show. CT is not inexpensive and I’d rate overall value/$ as only medium unless one has time to linger into an evening. The showtime fixed menu options are appreciated but when it is eat and run, there is not much opportunity to enjoy the ambiance, although this is something mostly under the control of diners wrt reservation time. The soup came quickly but there was more lag than was comfortable between the soup and main courses, leading to a forced rush for the glory wrt dessert.

The menu is easy to find something that appeals it's even difficult to choose. Not your traditional dishes which is really a nice change and very tasty. Good choices for dessert and wines by the glass and bottle. I've had a few different dishes and they've all been good. Favourite dessert is black forest.

While a central feature of the restaurant is that all the food is gluten free, you wouldn't even know it if you were not told. I had the daily special pierogis, which were stuffed with curry chicken and topped with butter chicken sauce. They were flavorful, well-cooked, and the serving was generous. My wife had the sauerkraut and wild mushroom pierogis and swapped the wild mushroom sauce for the Hungarian goulash sauce. She thought the combination was perfect. My mother in law had the German Meat Cabbage Roll which was ample and served with a tomato sauce. She also reported her meal was excellent. Service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant is nicely decorated and has a definite Eastern European feel.
