Booked the Flames Castle for a special occasion. Getting seated and having drink orders taken was…read moreall good. However, on the down side the service was not very good. There was plenty of wait staff on site but communication between staff was quite poor. No one ever came by to see if we needed anything or to ask if we wanted additional drinks or the like. So we found ourselves having to constantly hail wait staff. A large portion of the weekend buffet was seafood. You would expect that when serving lobster and crab the tableware would include for seafood crackers. This is not the case. I asked for seafood crackers from two different wait staff and was advised they didn't have any. So I went to the matre d' and asked, she went into the back and brought some out for our table. If you serving lobster and crab, the restaurant should either provide crackers or pre- cut the claws ready to eat. With regard to the food, I would have thought they would have served some rolls or bread but we had to ask for this special. As well, most all the food was cold. So all in all, I expected more but a 3 star rating is about all I would give.

Not sure who decided that was a good idea. Interesting because they did come around to tell us about their wine options. The quantity and variety of the buffet was fine, efficiency quite good and wait staff were all kind, however the quality of the offerings was lacking. I would put the actual food part of the meal in the mediocre category.

Excellent Portuguese Restaurant!!…read more They have an a la cart menu and on Friday a seafood buffet style, Saturday and Sunday they have a meat and seafood buffet style. The buffet style (because of Covid) they bring the food to you like Brazilian. They have a salad bar inside with a lot of selections like Octopus, rice, carrots, asparagus, salad etc. On the patio the servers walk around and slice up the 15 different kinds of food like Picanha, lamb, bacon wrapped chicken, bacon wrapped fillet mignon, whole bunch of different beef options, then they have whole shrimp, squid, octopus and small Lobster tails. And at the end they have pineapple dusted with sugar and cinnamon, really good Everything was great. And tasted really good. I mean way too much food for $55 I have a lot of pictures see below.

Paella anyone? I bet you haven't heard that in a while. And…read morehonestly, who knew it was such a Portuguese thing too? We all know Spain made it famous, but Portugal? INSANE. Back to why I do this. I'm endlessly curious about food, people, and the magic that happens when great meals meet good music. Friendships just seem to evolve naturally around a table. And thank you, E, for another incredible photo -- your choices are always perfect. Mercado on St. Clair is a hidden gem. What was once beside my mom's flower shop downtown has now found a home in a slightly more industrial setting on Caledonia -- and somehow, it works perfectly. Cozy seating inside, a great covered patio outside, and that village-style European restaurant vibe you hope to stumble across. First off, the waiter was phenomenal. He walked us through the menu, explained everything perfectly, and genuinely elevated the whole experience. The menu is massive -- meat, seafood, everything you could want -- but we came for the paella. We were told it takes time because they make it the proper way. Not overly crispy, just authentic, rich, and layered with flavour. Worth every minute of the wait. To start, we had the gambas / shrimp in a rich red garlic and herb sauce plus extra toasted bread for dipping, per our waiter's recommendation. Absolute rockstar move. The other appetizer was a delicious beef stew served over crunchy rustic bread. Simple, hearty, and top notch. Now... drum roll please. This may have been the best paella I've ever had. Okay okay, maybe somewhere along the coast in Spain I've had one fresher... but this was absolutely off the charts. Zero fishy smell. Just beautiful saffron-infused rice with that perfect slight crisp, loaded with mussels, clams, octopus, calamari, shrimp, and more. Built for two people to share and completely unforgettable. A few glasses of house white later and bam - there was absolutely no chance I was going back to work. And dessert? I kept telling myself: "No dessert, Frank. No dessert." But there's a rule in life ; if you see crème brûlée on a menu, you order it. This wasn't exactly crème brûlée, but a cheesecake-inspired version of it. Two spoons, four bites, and thank you very much. Favourite meal of the year so far. Completely blown away by this place. Mercatto -- go now. Go fast.

As a New Yorker, the friendliness threw me off a bit, but it was nice. The salad was good, along with the chicken and the potatoes. When ordering, you have the option to add sauces. I chose the garlic hot sauce no the chicken with a piri piri sauce on the side. The chicken tasted like your regular rotisserie chicken with a mild flavor. The prices were a bit higher than other options in the area. The potatoes was the one item I was extremely fond of, whereas the chicken and the salad dont quite match the price charged.

They need a little more sear in them, very little flavour. I skipped on the rice (not sure why someone would put both potatoes as a Dinner plate). The salad was just taking up space. Lady piled everything into a styrofoam container. Chicken layed ontop of the salad LOL. But it's a small hole-in-the-wall place and the prices are good. Dont expect much.

The piri piri sauce is more of an oil so if you're not a fan of that, I'd ask for it on the side. I am interested in trying their grilled calamari and bacalhau but I don't think I've ever seen it on display - maybe they weren't serving it the days I was there. Just a heads-up that parking is a bit of a challenge because most of the stores in the plaza have spots reserved and you can't actually park on The Queensway. Depending on the time of day, you could park on Brawley (the side street) and just quickly run in and out.

If you're craving an authentic Portuguese feast, make your way to O Patio!…read more This place knows how to do generous portions and bold flavours. The Tomahawk Steak was the star of the meal--perfectly grilled with a beautiful char, incredibly juicy, and packed with flavour. Topped with a fried egg, it made for an unforgettable combination. Served alongside crispy hand-cut fries and fresh vegetables, every bite was satisfying. We also started with the calamari, and it did not disappoint. Light, crispy, and perfectly seasoned, it came with a creamy dipping sauce that complemented it beautifully. Definitely one of the better calamari dishes I've had. From the quality of the food to the welcoming atmosphere, O Patio delivered a fantastic dining experience. If you're a steak lover or simply looking for authentic Portuguese cuisine with generous portions, this spot deserves a place on your list. Food: 9.3/10 Service: 9.4/10 Atmosphere: 7/10 I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. #FoodReviewCA #PortugueseFood #TomahawkSteak

It's the kind of place where the atmosphere is as comforting as the food; warm, welcoming, and unpretentious. We kicked things off with a couple of standout appetizers: chorizo roasting over a live fire which arrived sizzling and smoky, and sautéed shrimp bursting with garlic and flavor. Both were perfect alongside the complimentary bread, which was just the right kind of crusty for dipping and nibbling. For mains, we went all in. The T-bone steak was massive and cooked to perfection -- juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Sliced beef on a skewer with a secret sausage in between each piece. But the star of the show might've been the Little Frenchie. Picture this: a bun stacked high with grilled beef, sausage, and ham, smothered in melted cheese, topped with a fried egg, and drenched in a rich, savory gravy. Oh, and don't forget the fries which were crispy, golden, and ideal for soaking up every last bit of sauce. Everything about the experience was warm and genuine, from the food to the service. This isn't trendy or modern and that's exactly why it's so great. It's a true taste of tradition, where portions are generous, flavors are bold, and you leave feeling like you've just had a home-cooked meal from someone's nanna.
