What to Order
Smoked Beef Carpaccio
Thinly sliced smoked beef, presented with dramatic flair, offering a fantastic combination of smell, taste, and texture.
"If I had to pick the dish that stood out, I would go with the Smoked Beef Carpaccio - it came with some dramatic flair as you can see in the video. Smell, taste, and texture all worked together to create a fantastic dish. Truthfully, we got another order."
Carlo Thirtytwo
Gnocchi
Consistently praised for its quality, these gnocchi are a popular and highly recommended dish.
"Gnocchi are so good, keep ordering them every time. Highly recommend!"
Yelena Petrukhina
Oysters
Fresh oysters, often flown in from PEI, are a popular choice, especially during special "oyster days."
"Oysters were very tasty, and the beef tenderloin was cooked perfectly."
Carlo Thirtytwo
Pickerel
A well-prepared fish dish that consistently receives positive feedback for its execution.
"We tried the pickerel and the salmon and both were done really well."
Flavia D
Moules Frites
Mussels served with perfectly fried, crispy golden-brown fries, and a flavorful sauce.
"The fries of my moules frites were fried deep golden brown with a perfect and balanced crunch without being overwhelmingly seasoned. I almost couldn’t stop drinking the sauce by the spoonfuls even after all the mussels were gone."
Joseph Leung
Elk Bourguignon
A rich and flavorful stew, often served when the bison option is unavailable, cooked to perfection.
"Everything was very delicious! We had the escargot, elk bourguignon (they were out of the bison), and Moroccan Salmon. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the pickles accompanying it were very tasty. The other dishes were also done very well."
