                                                We had a table for 2 on the window. The outlook is amazing and while the floor under our table hadn't been vacuumed the table was clean and the setting was nice. The staff were pleasant and attentive. The lunch menu was limited, my salmon was cooked well, my partner said his steak sandwich was ordinary. We followed up with a chocolate brownie which was very dry and for $18 was expensive. I don't feel this restaurant has taken full advantage of their location.

Tried to ring them no answer phone switched off,, evening and mornig, even hotel did not pick up their phone at all. Overall quite poor really would not be recommending at all.

                                                Have eaten in many restaurants in Scarborough and the food here last night would have to be the best we have had. Steak cooked perfectly, service was amazing would highly recommended.
