This place is great. While we were here too early in the season, the deck looks like a lovely way to while away an evening. We stopped in coming from Massachusetts, headed to Montreal. The fries, fried deviled egg, and Cesar salad were the perfect pit stop. The brick interior is spectacular, service was amazing, and the "Italian Sunrise" the bar tender created is perfect. Highly recommended.

UPDATE: Went back a couple weeks ago and had the fish and chips again. Very disappointed - much smaller portion and was mostly greasy fries. I don't understand how inconsistent they can be. Service was excellent, our waitress was like a friend and everything came out on time. Food was delicious. Happy that dishes were not over salted like a lot of local fare. We had the fish n chips...was super delicious! flaky, soft, sweet and delicious! And the Prime Dip also yummy! Drinks were good but really strong - which some may appreciate.

Parm truffle fries - Delicious! Staff - Friendly and attentive! Roof deck - So lovely! Veg option - just OK. There's only one vegetarian main dish (black bean burger) and it was uninspired, dry, needed flavor, and the pickled onions were overpowering - that's all I could taste. I know most chefs don't make vegetarian dishes a priority, so veggie burgers are the bare minimum I see on most menus, but if there's only going to be one vegetarian main, please make it amazing!
