    I have visited a few times since moving into the neighbourhood and I am always pleasantly surprised by the level of care and attention I (and other guests) receive. Xavier was very knowledgeable and attentive to my requests and the wine recommendation was the perfect pairing with my meal. Being that the restaurant is quaint, it can be very busy in the evenings (so a reservation is advised) … but the overall experience is worth a little planning ahead!

    What an amazing find. The menu is so varied. The food is so tasty- different textures, tastes and combinations. Small plates, large plates - this food is fantastic. Service is excellent. Love the hoisin duck spring rolls, ahi tuna tartar and flatbreads. Great place for small and large groups. Such good value.

    Service was excellent. More than I anticipated with afternoon tea. The scones were an absolute favorite. Will be back!

    Great restaurant - great service and chef! The coffee, however, is ‘greatly’ overpriced at $5.00/cup!!!
