They have really nice bread. I think it was like a 7-grain or something like that. They heat the bread before it comes to the table, so I think that makes you crave more.
They had a decent selection of wines. I couldn't try any because of the cough syrup I was taking, but I picked a out a 1/2 litre of a cab for H. and S. and they really enjoyed it.
The food was pretty good.
I had a paella, although it wasn't a really a paella -- it was more like a seafood risotto. As paella's go it wasn't really good, but as a seafood risotto’s go it was fine. Really big serving. I started with the white fish mousse, which was really really good. I would definitely recommend the white fish mousse.
The rack of the lamb got a mixed rating. They use Ontario Lamb, so it really depends on how you feel about Ontario versus New Zealand lamb. If your taste is more towards something more muted, like the Ontario Lamb, then you would really like it. On the other hand, if you want something with more zing to it, like the New Zealand lamb, you might not find the dining experience thrilling.
The New York Steak, how can you go wrong.
No deserts. The coffee was really good, but the waitress messed on the cappuccino and latte (they weren't hot enough).
The waitress was nice: friendly and knowledge, but she's not the greatest barista around.
Overall, it kind of reminds me of what the Select Bistro was like when it was on Queen. I'd say its pretty good value for the money, with a nice room and not many old people hanging around.
