Loved it
Had dinner at this restaurant and chose to try multiple items from the tapa menu, yummy! Have to go back and try the other menu!    [02 Sep 2007 10:23:43]

Highly recommended!
We decided to give this new restaurant a chance and I'm so thankful we did. The food was excellent! The owner is a fantastic chef and the prices were very reasonable. This restaurant is exactly what Nanaimo needed. A world away from the usual steak and seafood houses, the menu offers a little taste of everything and offers a few great dishes perfect for kids. My daughter had a homemade mini burger with 'petite frites' and absolutely loved it. Beautiful restaurant, friendly service, great atmosphere.
We'll definitely be back!
The minimalist decor was resonant of the original 1950's restaurant that was first established on the site. Very classy, yet casual fine dining. Absolutely loved it.    [28 Sep 2007 12:18:26]

So good!
This is exactly what Nanaimo needs! Great food that is really reasonably priced (where else can you get a 12 oz NY steak with a lobster sauce for $28) and a nice relaxed atmosphere. The server was attentive but not hanging around the table all the time and the wine was good too! We went on a Friday night and we should have had reservations but they managed to get us a nice table in the lounge area so we got to watch some live jazz while we dined too! What a great night, and we didn't have to break the bank to do it! We will definitely be back.    [29 Sep 2007 15:21:39]

Room to improve
Went there on a Thursday night. There were only 2-3 tables occupied. The waitress seated us in a large semicircle booth facing the dance floor. We shared the foie gras as an appy. I had the seafood broth and my friend had the duck two ways. We finished with a chocolate fondue. It was quite a wait before the appy was ready and no bread or anything was served in between. I was very disappointed with the foie gras and was one of the worst I have ever tasted. The portion was extremely small considering the price ($13) and it tasted raw and nothing else. The duck 2 ways was quite good and the portion was decent. The seafood broth was OK but not outstanding as a fine dinning restaurant. The chocolate fondue was again nothing impressive, the chocolate taste ordinary. They over charged us for a drink on the bill, but corrected it after I pointed that out.    [10 Oct 2007 16:01:11]

Unique
A fabulous experience. Went for a celebration and good times had by all. Great atmosphere and very clean. Live Jazz music was perfect! The server was the best and she surprised us with a Chocolate Fondue at the end of the dinner. What Fun! Lots a selection and very accommodating with special diets.    [15 Nov 2007 15:42:02]
