    This was my first time trying this place out. The Brussel sprouts were SO good. My friend and I also shared the turkey club sandwich, fries and the garlic aioli. Delicious. Our services Madison said she was new and had only been there about a week and a half, she was amazing! Will definitely be going back.

    Suggest you make reservation if going. Place was packed when we got there on a Wednesday at 5:00 and packed when we left after our meal. Everything was very good.

    Service and food were excellent! It is a bit loud in their space, so it can be a little hard to hear your own conversation. Other than that I will be back!

    Second time being there. Food is delicious. The whipped feta brussel sprouts appetizer and pork tenderloin bites were outstanding. Tasty and the bites were moist and juicy. Generous portions. While noisy at first it becomes background noise when talking g with your company. Highly recommend. Reservation system limits to four which is unfortunate.

    If I could pack this place up and move it to Alberta so I could have it every week, I would. Absolutley delicious. I will be back on my next trip out here!

    The food and atmosphere were exceptional. The only complaint I would have is that anyone wearing a hearing aid would find the noise level excessive and it would be difficult to converse.

    Wow, what a great new spot for food in south Winnipeg. Menu had lots of great sounding options and the portions were fantastic. Head was on a swivel checking out what the other tables had. We had a Rueben, a Clubhouse, Prime rib burger and the Beet and Goat cheese salad. Everyone really enjoyed it and was full. We've already decided on what to have next time. I did make a reservation and got to skip the wait line so glad I was able to do that. Only downside was the noise level, low ceiling and lots of people make it to noisy to even hear the staff explain the specials. Our server explained she was newer but she did a good job.

    Delicious food, but SO NOISY! Too bad they didn’t put higher backs on the booths to try to muffle the noise. Very, very loud , but I am happy it was very busy. Good to see another good restaurant in the neighborhood.
