The carpaccio was fine, pleasant but fairly straightforward, but everything else we ordered was excellent The octopus was tender, and hearty, paired nicely with potatoes, hummus, some greens, and capers. It was well-balanced and satisfying without feeling heavy. The steak came out a perfect medium-rare and juicy. The nut topping on the fish added a really nice crunch, contrasting beautifully with the soft, tender flesh of the fish. And then there was the duck: the clear standout of the night. It was beautifully cooked and seasoned. The fat kept it incredibly juicy without feeling greasy. The charred cabbage on the side added a subtle smokiness that tied everything together perfectly. Every bite honestly made me happier and happier. Getting to the restaurant was a little confusing at first, but once you're there, it's absolutely worth it. A really enjoyable meal overall, and especially memorable for that duck dish. Definitely a place I'd return to.

I feel like there could've been more zucchini for the price point Peppercorn steak: ($78) 8.5/10 Very tender and well-cooked steak. I couldn't really taste much of a peppercorn flavor in the sauce though. I prefer my steak on the saltier side so I asked for some salt and they gave me a small bowl of flakey sea salt (my favourite!). Lobster roll ($48): 9/10 I've never had avocado in a lobster roll before, and the flavours & textures actually worked really well together! The lobster tasted fresh and sweet. The fries were crispy and plentiful. This spot is on the pricier side, but the quality of the food, service, and ambiance is reflected in the price.

When we got there, we were left unattended for about 8 minutes or so with no one else in line. I get it, covid 19 times means lots of orders to attend to, no biggie. We placed our orders for 2 chicken shawarma plates. It turned out they charge a small fee for using credit cards. I'm not sure if this was something this establishment was doing prior to covid 19 since this was my first visit but you would think amidst this pandemic that a restaurant would discourage the use of cash altogether, but not this place. Mind you, the fee wasn't anything big but it was the principle that matters. Anyway, the food itself wasn't all that good. The chicken was dry, the potatoes were hard, the rice had this buttery taste and their version of the white garlic sauce was something out of a ranch salad dressing bottle. Also, the hot sauce they provided was from the Red Rooster bottles you would find in Asian grocery stores. I've never ever had this kind of hot sauce from a shawarma joint, lol. Definitely not coming back to this one!

The potatoes are okay but a little on the dry side. The chicken shawarma and lamb shish kebab came with a generous amount of meat and we were happy. The meals came with a hot sauce (small size) and a white creamy sauce (big size). I enjoyed the sauce but we ended up squeezing some lemon juice on our lamb to minimize the gamey taste. There was also salads that came along with the meals. I would say the chicken shawarma was better than the lamb. I think we probably would head back next time.

The ordering process was not user friendly. Advertised deals were not charged as promoted until after the order was actually placed. The categories of food were itemized all over the place, so you weren't sure you were getting what you wanted as if it were a small combo, a larger dinner, or a la carte. The food itself was worth nowhere near the prices charged. For $20.89 before tip and taxes, I got a regular 355 mL can of domestic pop, a lunch sized pita that was completely burnt, and a side of frozen fries. Everyone's chicken was dry as a bone, and even the rice was as dessicated as cardboard. The only decent items were the Greek salad, and the pork which was able to withstand its level of char because it's not chicken. They didn't deliver one of the said cans of pop, which was charged and paid for at $3 for a la carte because it wasn't ordered as part of a preset combo. Add to the order the suggested 20% tip pushing $50, and the total customer experience result is that we'll never order from there again, or bother trying them as walk ins Never again.

The hummus with mushroom was also very unique, it tasted very earthy and balanced the pita very well, providing some chew and meatiness to the dish. The pide was also very nice and crispy, and you can taste each ingredient separately on the pide yet it all melds together with the fragrant spices combine it all. Service: There was plenty of seating available in the restaurant, and the people were all very friendly. As it was our first time, the server helped provide some recommendations and walked us through some favourites on the menu. Atmosphere: The place was a nice and clean, but nothing spectacular in terms of design. Seats were comfortable enough, although the tables were fairly close together.

There is construction on 400 so it can be tricky to get here. You might have to go one exit passed Steeles and come back but it's worth it.

The server was from Turkey and he had a bit of an accent which made me think the food would be a little more authentic. On the recommendation of the server I got the Cokertme Kebab. It doesn't quite look like it does in the menu picture but it was really good. The beef strips were well seasoned and tender. The yogurt complimented the beef very well and the chips added good texture. I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

Both were really great, though I found the meatballs a bit tight. My boyfriend loved the sauce. The palate cleanser was super fun and refreshing. I ended up getting the lobster pasta for an entree and my boyfriend got the tenderloin goulash gnocchi. I found the gnocchi to be so light and pillowy, and really enjoyed the bites of his, but I beyond loved mine. The sauce was super creamy but not heavy at all. The table side pepper just added the right touch to the pasta. Desserts were super yummy, and the service was lovely. Overall a great dinner and we would absolutely go back!

We came for a Winterlicious date and I had zero knowledge where we were going and what was going to…read morebe on the menu. I will say, it wasn't until the end of the night that I was told this is an Italian restaurant with modern, European twist. They started us with an amuse bouche - which was some kind of walnut over a jelly? I didn't quite hear him but it tasted great. The starter options all sounded great but we opted for the wagyu meatballs and steak tartare. I was thrilled that the tartare came very cold and well seasoned. It had a fresh, light flavour, and the capers and light seasoning complimented the raw meat so well. The wagyu meatballs were very soft and the marinara was delightful. Then came a raspberry mint sorbet as a palette cleanser. I appreciated that quite a lot. It was so refreshing. I just wish the mains came a bit sooner because we ended up waiting quite a while after the sorbet. The mains, I opted for the fish of the day, which was a mahi mahi in a beaurre blanc type sauce with roasted veggies. The dish was light, and I enjoyed the portion size. However, the fish was quite over done for me. It was a bit chewy and dry, and I didn't love it as much. Luckily, the sauce was great and I just chewed on the fish with the veggies to kinda help get it down. A bit disappointing but the flavours were great. My partner ordered the beef stew goulash over gnocchi. The gnocchi was really mushy, and not quite what I would enjoy a plate of. The beef goulash was not great. It gave me cafe beef stew vibes. I'm not sure how goulash should taste since I've never had it, but I think maybe that's just not my thing. I don't really love any beef stews in general - so I want to be fair and put that out there. The key lime pie dessert was good, but my pie was oddly cut. Instead of a slice, I got these two weird shaped rectangles. Because they were not the same shape and one had more crush than the other, I was wondering if they just ran out of pie and had to serve tiny squares instead of a slice. Anyway the filling was a bit too sweet for me, but with enough crust in the bite, it was good. We also got the basque cheesecake which was nice. Good texture and flavour, and a good portion. Both desserts were a bit heavy, so I appreciated the extra bit of berry sauce they added on the plate. Service was good. It seemed like there were 3 people running the floor, so there wasn't a lot of interaction. They were pleasant. I loved the appetizers, but I'm more curious about their regular menu and how the quality might differ. I felt the modern, european twist kinda just weakened my over all experience with Winterlicious. I didn't really understand what cuisine we were eating at until I asked my partner at the end. It left me kinda craving a real authentic experience of Italian or French foods, without having a real satisfying fill of either. I think I'd be excited to come back and try their regular menu and see how it might differ. Looks like they are very popular and well liked, so they're definitely doing something right on the regular.
