We had the Brussel sprouts, shrimp, gnudi, lamb dumplings, short rib, and burger to eat.To drink, I had the Down By The Bay and Banana Bread Old Fashioned.Everything was delicious, playful, and substantial. I can't wait to come back.

went here for an anniversary dinner and my partner made a phenomenal pick! we especially loved the little appetizer (small pastry with some sort of tomato sauce?), we could've had a whole plate of those! we especially enjoyed the spicy ceviche and truffle gnudi dish as well.this restaurant is a great price point that doesn't break the bank but lets you experience more fancy dining. love the concept of sharing dishes as well, great for date nights! the rustic dark ambience is also lovely, excited to come back and try out the other dishes.

We were 2 couples and we started off with their Refreshing Peach drink, and a Spicy concoction. They were both amazing and went with every dish.For Vegetarian options, we had the Chickpea Fritters, Salad, and Squash Ravioli. Non-Veg dishes our friends had were the Octopus and Crab dishes. Service was amazing and the food was really tasty.The only issue was the portion size. They say it is Tapas style, but for $25 of Squash Ravioli, there could definitely be more on the plate, or like have more than 1 tentacle for $42 of Octopus.We finished our meal with their Sweet Dish. It was really tasty but quite heavy on the sugar.

We really loved the family style dining and had 4 dishes between 2 people. The service was really friendly. The server recommended the chop salad, burger, and tuna tartare which were all great. We also really loved the pea pappardelle which was super lemony and light. The cocktails were really yummy as well, the mango-rita was our favourite. patio was very cute.

Upon arriving our table for our reservation wasn’t ready; so they sat us on a waiting area that was right in front of the kitchen. Chef’s area was a little too dirty and too messy; sort of turned off the meal a bit but I’ve heard great things about the restaurant so sort of ignored that a bit.We started our dinner with a Pearce Predhomme Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2021. South African white wine just hits you different! As our waiter approached us with our White Wine he also brought complementary Pao de Queijo with Spicy Tomato Sauce which went perfectly with our wine.My friends and I shared many dishes like• Tuna Tataki was amazing but a little spicy for my palate• Grilled Octopus was perfectly cooked which is always a good thing because trust trying to eat an over cooked octopus is a horrible experience. Delicious dish!• Monkfish & their smoked butter Hollandaise won my on the first bite!• Squash Ravioli was an interesting dish. So many different flavors in one; which is always a good thing!• Ibérico Pork; I personally wasn’t a fan. My Spanish friend LOVED IT.• Truffle Gnudi was my favorite dish of them all!We didn’t have dessert as for 3 guests we were over stuffed. Food was delicious. Our waiter was extra welcoming from beginning to end and loved how he will explain throughly each dish!Parking is hard to find. So try to arrive early! We felt rushed at dinner since they were closing but it wasn’t our fault that we arrive and our table wasn’t ready for a good 30 mins.

I love it when I end up somewhere totally unexpected. Stopped here with a new friend for a bite and wine. Very comfortable atmosphere and the staff were real and down to earth. The Kale & Quinoa salad is a MUST, with a delicious wasabi feta drizzle.

One of the most incredible fusion places I’ve visited in the city. Their creations fuse the best parts of different cultures to create delicious masterpieces. Sat at the bar and the staff were super friendly and offered recommendations and tastings (of their kefir drink). Octopus was well cooked but the best part was their take on a ceviche.The location is a bit small so reservations would be highly recommended. It’s the one place I recommend to all my friends visiting!

I loved every bite and every sip! We had the chickpea fritters, chopped salad, beef short ribs, and lemon cake for dessert. My husband’s favorites were the chopped salad and the fritters and he really enjoyed the negroni as well as the “where there’s smoke…” that he was recommended to try. It’s hard to do the dishes justice without trying them for yourself but I highly recommend this place for friendly, attentive and fast service as well as a delicious night out. The food is sharing plates and we ordered three which was almost too much for just the two of us. Dessert wasn’t necessary but then… it always is.Also, we got lost trying to find the restaurant! Not sure if this was because our Uber dropped us off down the street but the address didn’t seem to match the physical location. In case this happens to anyone else, it IS there on the main road, just keep looking. It’s worth looking for

An amazingly creative, playful and delicious restaurant in the heart of the Annex. The classic tasting menu offered a diverse selection of their menu items and we were allowed to swap out the burger for tacos. The tasting menu was also a bargain at just 60 a person and server Alex was very knowledgeable and provided excellent service as well. Just be warned that the food is a bit on the heavy side so do come extra hungry. We will definitely be returning to try all the other items on the menu.
