We had the duck with risotto, truffle fries, pan seared salmon, and the homemade mac & cheese with chicken breast. All were excellent. Our server recommended a couples drink combo which consisted of the following: For him - Maple Old Fashioned: Bearface Triple Oak Canadian whisky, maple syrup, and Angostura bitters. For her - A savory-sweet mix of Ojo de Tigre Mezcal, passion fruit liqueur, blood orange syrup, lime juice, and a black salt rim. It was awesome. The hotel had an amazing gym facility and pool. I easily spent two hours in the gym as there was a variety of activities. Also, the decor was absolutely divine. Gorgeous lighting, and panelling throughout with a big open kitchen where you can see the magic happen. We would definitely stay the night again!

Let's start with the positives: -ambiance of the indoor…read morecocktail area and outdoor patio was great -Saving grace of the meal was the Praline Creme Brûlée dessert and the smoothest Aperol spritz cocktail I've had Now, here's the feedback of the dishes we ordered: -Jumbo Shrimp cocktails & Crab cakes were good -The Wagyu carpaccio was subpar -The Rib eye main with a broccolini side was good (although quite fatty) -The Pork chop dish that one of us ordered as rare was definitely overcooked by a mile. -The Stuffed pasta had such potential... loved the peas and the filling, but man was it salty as ever! -Olive oil cake was definitely not worth getting Really wanted to enjoy our meal here, but the dishes we had were just not as enjoyable as we were hoping. And the service just seemed disorganized with how long the dishes took, how everyone didn't get served the correct dishes, and the servers were fumbling to rearrange themselves.

If you park at the library parking this place is super close and easy to get to. Waiter was super nice, refilled water several times and apologized he was so busy. We tried the Ponche De Chicha house cocktail - 10/10 tasted like pineapple juice - a great summer cocktail. Very pricey and they added a Lot of ice. They didn't have the same Eighty Eight as on the online menu. We also got a house favorite the Brussel Sprouts - 10/10. Cooked perfectly, good portion, love that $3 is donated to the food bank, wish there was more chipotle but there was Lots of feta. Soo good - highly recommend. We also tried the Sticky Toffee Pudding. 10/10 great portion for price. Wish there was more toffee sauce as it was sooo good! Cake was moist but maybe too much salt as that got overwhelming. Ice cream was good - didn't taste too cheap. Next time I'll try the Rusty Bicycle house drink but I will definitly be back!

Atlas had a deal for a week $55.00 for 4 courses. This is a steal of a deal for a restaurant like…read morethis. We entered and it was fairly quiet probably because it was freezing outside. We got seated at our table and then we waited...and waited...and waited... So the manager came by and asked us if we need anything and I replied, "Yeah a server." Apparently there was a mix up with communication and whose table was whose. It is gorgeous inside. Very sexy. Plush benches, silver tones, and blue lights. This would be a great place to be seen after a hockey game or something. Finally with our fixed menu in hand and some water. The manager asked us if we would like the wine paring for no extra charge. What a fabulous gift! We started out with the black truffle and brie aranchini. This is super rich and flavourful. Great texture on the outside and creamy goodness on the inside. My husband and I got one of each of the salads - Wedge and Ceasar. The portions were massive, so I am glad I got the wedge. I could pack it up and it was fresh and crisp the next day. Dressings on both of them were excellent I got the black sesame ahi tuna and my husband got the petite filet. Both were excellent but if I wanted to finish dessert I would have to get this packed for home. Finaly onto dessert my husband got the chocolate peanut butter bar, while I went with the strawberry pavlova. Both were fine, but the peanut butter bar was super rich. The wine pairings were excellent. Great place, even better when you have a super deal.

If you like your meat charred, your butter tasting of blue cheese, your potatoes full of cheese and…read moregarlic and your asparagus tasting of overwhelming tarragon, you might like this place. It was a bit too much for me, but we can't all like the same things. I think the staff might have recommended we not order two mashed potatoes, but otherwise service was sufficient and relatively attentive. Attention was given to my gf dietary needs, but no attempt at a gluten free bread was made, as has been done a similar high end establishments. Our waitress nearly gave our meal to another table, but fortunately was intercepted by another server. We arrived at 5:30 and got our meals at about 7:00. The ambiance was reminiscent of a high end pizza place- large marble topped tables to shout across. My lamb was a bit under done, but that was okay since I had allowed for that. I've had better lamb in my own home, but I admit I'm not a fan of char as the main flavour. It was very attractively plated and I liked most of the vegetables that shared the plate, excepting perhaps, one or two pieces of bitter greens. My two companions enjoyed their meals, both having ordered filet. The three of us wound up spending about $300.00, tip included.

I am please to say the food - which is always good, matched the service which this time was also good. We had a really great server. I like this type of menu where there was enough to choose from, but not to little to feel like you don't have a choice but not too much that it is hard to choose from all the selections. We split a bunch of menu items - steelhead crudo with Thai basil, citrus, chili, olive oil, apple bison tartare with tamari ginger vinaigrette, sesame, dashi cracker beets with goat cheese custard, pears, pistachio, tarragon vinaigrette tagliatelle, lamb sausage, smoked tomato, rapini polenta the posset and the chocolate dessert We also enjoyed a bottle of Merlot Food was excellent. The stand outs were the steelhead crudo and the beet salad. The steelhead crudo was beautiful and shining like jewels on the plate. And the beet salad was the same. I would highly recommend these two dishes. However, there wasn't a bad dish at all. I think that you won't go wrong here with the food.

Finally got to try Bundok last night, and while the food definitely lived up to the hype (for the…read moremost part, the steak was rubbery), we likely won't be back. Apparently Bundok was participating in downtown dining week and had a $65 dinner. We were never made aware of that. First impressions were...exceptionally poor. 1. It was LOUD. Like, had to routinely ask my dining partner to repeat themselves level loud for the entire meal. We were also greeted by the manager, who barely looked up and seemed quite annoyed, while waving us over to our table. I also sat at our table for well over 10 minutes before we were even acknowledged by our server. It's a very small space so this definitely stood out. My husband had time to go get something from the car, come back, browse the drink menu a few times and ask me if we wanted to leave before anyone came to talk to us. It was a busy night, sure but...I can't recall a time I've actually debated just leaving (and leaving a gift card behind) due to utter lack of service. When our server did come, she was quite lovely and did fantastic through the whole meal despite being new. This makes me wonder if the manager forgot to mention there was a new table. Food wise, we knew we had a gift card so we definitely wanted to use that up and then some. The drinks were...okay. Nothing notable and frankly the wine selection is better suited to the meal (their orange is lovely), but I can certainly see why Bundok has won awards for its menu. Every item, save for our striploin was delicious and perfectly prepared. The steak itself tasted like its prepared sous vide then seared, but was very rubbery in our case. Could have been that it wasn't fully to temp when seared. The black garlic sauce was nice, but overall, we could have done without that dish as a whole. If I look at the meal as a whole, removing the benefit of having a gift card, I wouldn't, and won't, be going back. Why? While the food IS wonderful, the price you'll pay (don't get me wrong, I have zero issue paying for an experience and good eats!) isn't necessarily worth poor service, and exceptionally loud (seriously, you're in a repurposed industrial loft that's supposed to feel intimate, the glass beside me was vibrating at some points) setting. This would be 2 stars and a non recommend, but the flavour of the food saved it. If you're fine with super loud and want an experience, give it a shot, but there are other places in the city that are far better for an intimate night out, have equal caliber food, and quite frankly, run laps around the service. While we're thankful for the opportunity, we'll happily pass on going back.

No one came to even give us a glass of water by 1:45; at which time server came and was told some people wanted brunch. She kept taking drink orders, finally came back to take orders ( by this time it's like 2 minutes to 2pm); and has the nerve to come back to tell us the kitchen says it's too late for brunch. We had to point out that we waited 45 minutes prior to ordering. The venue was unprepared for a large group; service took forever; food was mediocre. Brunch was not worth the wait- very small portions ; one person's soup was stone cold and had to be sent back. Would not recommend this place
